                  Chaparral
Chaparral is a potent healer & cleanser. It has the ability to cleanse deep in the muscles & tissue walls. It works on the lymphatic system as it tones & rebuilds tissues. Chaparral seems to influence the body by inhibiting unwanted rapid growth. It is a strong antioxidant. It is one of the best herbal antibiotics. It is high in protein & potassium. It has been used in  folk medicine as a cancer treatment. My husband, who has had skin cancer, uses it daily . So far, he has not had a recurrance in 3 years.

                   How to Use
Chaparral can be used in capsules or extract.  As with all the powerful herbs, it is not used as a preventive ( except to prevent a recurrance of a former condition). However it IS helpful to the body to use it twice a year as a cleansing agent; to rid the body of excess toxins.If you have ( or have had) cancer , arthritis,etc then I would recommend using it daily. 2 or 3 caps or 2 or 3 droppersful of extract
This is one that only grows in the western United States so you'll have to order it from one of the sources listed.
