This is a compilation of Hanna Kroeger<\/a>‘s time tested advice for health and healing. You will find remedies, recipes, herbs, and vitamins which cover a wide range of health concerns and nutritional needs. \u00a0These remedies are from a time not so far away, but a world that was much simpler than the one we live in today. During the time of Hanna’s creation of these remedies, food allergies and sensitivities were not prominent health concerns because the average diet was not overloaded with highly processed foods, sugars, or animal products. Several remedies suggest you add sugar or honey to an herbal formula to help get it down while others may instruct you to add whey (a dairy ingredient) or even glutinous grains to a remedy. If you are limiting your sugar intake or have a food allergy\/sensitivity, it may be best to avoid those remedies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of pesticides, food additives, GMOs, and food irradiation, our food is no longer as rich in vitamins and minerals as it once was. When following the remedies in this compilation, please choose organic foods and ingredients that are as clean, raw, and natural as possible; no artificial sweeteners or ingredients should be used in these remedies.<\/p>\n

Much of the information listed here is general and not as exact as dosages used today. Keep in mind that most recommendations are natural sources and common sense will guide you to using the correct amount. If a remedy calls for carrots, it is assumed the reader will know to add carrots to their diet without being told exactly how many to eat in a day. Hanna would have said, “Do it and don’t worry about the details; the benefits will become obvious.”<\/p>\n

Any mention of H-12 is to a specific Master Formula created by Hanna that is available in a liquid or dried herbal blend you can mix yourself. We also carry many of the herbs suggested and are happy to help you find what you are looking for.<\/p>\n

Good luck and have fun discovering how easy helping yourself can be!<\/p>\n

What a blessing anise is. Make a tea for indigestion or flatulent conditions and to soothe the stomach after vomiting. Anise tea is excellent for hiccups and relieving a bloated stomach which can result in headaches.<\/p>\n

In olden times, this remedy with anise was used to heal kidney stones: Simmer 1 tablespoon of anise in 1 quart of grape juice for a half hour; 7 ounces 3 times a day.<\/p>\n

Anise oil was also used to relieve jaundice.<\/p>\n

Avocados<\/strong> are a fat and protein supplier; very good for diabetics.<\/p>\n

Vitamin<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Vitamin A<\/strong> is a fat soluble vitamin which is synthesized in the human and animal body from carotene.<\/p>\n

Carotene is called a pro-vitamin and is changed to vitamin A in the healthy walls of the intestinal tract. Vitamin A as such is found in meat products and oils such as: cod liver oil, halibut liver oil, in cream, butter, and egg yolk.<\/p>\n

Vitamin A is needed for healthy skin, hair, nails, eyes, lungs, mouth, and all membranes of the digestive tract as well as uro-genital organs.<\/p>\n

Vitamin A is needed for the healthy lubrication of all membranes. If membranes are dry, bacteria, virus, and molds have a better chance to attack them.<\/p>\n
