CHAPTER IV:

Special Needs and Problems

Special Hints
The following hints encompass some of the best of the simple and
natural aids which are of great benefit in the correction of various
minor inconveniences that may develop at any time in our lives.

Oil of Clove
Oil of clove is invaluable for many things. It is especially good for
skin cancers, warts, and corns. With the finger, apply a small amount
on warts or corns. Wait a short time. With an emery stick, scrape the
top off and apply oil again. Repeat this several times daily Until wart
or corn disappears. Do the same thing for skin cancer. These forms
of blemishes are not caused by a virus, but are a form of fungus
growth feeding on acid elimination in the skin. (Our type of diet,
incidentally, prevent these conditions from forming in the
beginning.)
Clove oil stops the pain in the following conditions:
Use a small amount on the gums for toothache, and swollen or sore
parts of the mouth. Use for canker sores.
Use for all insect stings and bites (wasp and mosquito, for example),
scratches, small burns, and sores that are slow in healing. It is an
excellent disinfectant. It takes the sting out of nettles and poison oak.
Use your finger to put a small amount on the back of the tongue for
sore throat or a tickling cough.
For those who wish to quit smoking — every time you have the
desire for a smoke place — with your finger — a small amount on
the tongue and you immediately lose your desire to smoke. This is
the easy way if you really want to quit.
