LEARN HOW TO
COMBAT DISEASE:
“GATHER up all the KNOWLEDGE possible that
will help to combat disease...” {MM 320.2-.3}

“…Have a practical knowledge of the causes of disease, and…UNDERSTAND HOW to give simple treatments, that…may relieve the suffering ones…” {ChS 134.2}
“It is essential both to understand the principles involved in the treatment of the sick and to have a practical training …” (MH 127.2)
“As religious aggression subverts the liberties of our nation, those who would stand for freedom of conscience will be placed in unfavorable positions. For their own sake, they should, while they have opportunity, BECOME INTELLIGENT IN REGARD TO DISEASE, ITS CAUSES, PREVENTION, AND CURE...” (CH 506.1)
WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF DISEASE?
“…Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that result from a violation of the laws of health.” (MH 127.1) See: Proverbs 26:2

http://www.webmd.com/lung/picture-of-the-lungs#1
- The lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs located on either side of the chest (thorax)
- The trachea (windpipe) conducts inhaled air into the lungs through its tubular branches, called bronchi
- The bronchi then divide into smaller and smaller branches (bronchioles), finally becoming microscopic
- The bronchioles eventually end in clusters of microscopic air sacs called alveoli
- In the alveoli, oxygen from the air is absorbed into the blood
- Carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, travels from the blood to the alveoli, where it can be exhaled
- Between the alveoli is a thin layer of cells called the interstitium, which contains blood vessels and cells that help support the alveoli.
- The lungs are covered by a thin tissue layer called the pleura
- The same kind of thin tissue lines the inside of the chest cavity -- also called pleura
- A thin layer of fluid acts as a lubricant allowing the lungs to slip smoothly as they expand and contract with each breath

NATURAL REMEDIES FOR THE
LUNGS:
Water Treatments for the Lungs:
“In health and in
sickness, pure water is one of heaven’s choicest
blessings. Its
proper use promotes health…the external application of water is one of the easiest and most
satisfactory ways of regulating the circulation of the blood…” {MH
237.1}
Water treatments are not appreciated as
they should be, and to apply them
skillfully requires work that many are…unwilling to perform. But none should feel excused for ignorance or
indifference on this subject. There are many ways in
which water can be applied to relieve pain and check disease.
All should become intelligent in its use in simple home
treatments. Mothers, especially, should know how to
care for their families in both health and sickness.” {MH
237.2}
“What power there is in water! He improved rapidly…” {GH October 1, 1899, par. 6}

GO TO PAGES 9-10 at the above link to see all the water treatments. Then go to the corresponding page # for the treatment you want to learn and know.
1. 10 MINUTES HOT
FOMENTATION ON BOTH THE CHEST AND BACK AREA OVER THE LUNGS
- Doing 4 rotations of this, for a total of 40 minutes
- Drying the back and chest area well when finished
- You may do this 2-3 x day, but to be honest, all 4 people I have worked with that had pneumonia,
- Everyone’s pneumonia was gone the next day in conjunction with doing the following as well
- But continue to do this until the person you work on no longer has Pneumonia
Note: ABSOLUTELY
NO COLD APPLICATIONS TO THE LUNGS!!!
“…The cold water or ice water to the lungs was
diverting the blood from limbs and body to meet the cold application, and
another hemorrhage would certainly appear soon…” {20MR
278.6}
2. GIVE COUGH REMEDY
Mix ½ c. pure honey (not the one in
a local store; not even Whole Foods or Costco; only Trader Joe’s, a
Farmer’s Market, or Honey Farm) with 4 drops
ingestible Eucalyptus Oil
Mix well - Take 1 Tbsp. during episode. Small
children get 1 tsp.
NEVER GIVE HONEY TO ANY CHILD UNDER 1 YR OLD
3.
MIX
½ CUP PURE HONEY (if
raw be sure it’s boiled first) (see 2SM
301.1**)
WITH 4 DROPS OF INGESTIBLE EUCALYPTUS OIL
Mix well
and take 1 Tablespoon before bedtime
May take
during daytime if necessary but be sure to take prior to bedtime.
Do this
for a couple of days.
***Unpasteurized
honey is not really to be taken by mouth
4. MIX ¼ CUP OLIVE OIL WITH
3 DROPS EACH OF EUCALYPTUS AND PEPPERMINT OIL
Rub over
chest and back area over lungs and on bottom of feet
Be sure to
put socks on afterwards
Do this 2
x day/morning and evening until lung condition is gone
5. IF THEY HAVE A
DIFFICULT TIME BREATHING, INTO 1 ½ INCHES OF WATER, PUT 1 FULL DROPPERFUL OF
LOBELIA TINCTURE + 2 FULL DROPPERFULS OF MULLEIN TINCTURE, STIR AND DRINK
This normally helps the person
breathe well instantly
6. USE A HANDHELD
NEBULIZER,
Put a tiny bit of water into the section where the medicine goes + 2 drops each of eucalyptus oil and peppermint oil for about. Do breathing treatment for about 10-12 minutes
You may purchase
online.
7. GIVE:
LEMON JUICE in water
throughout the day for Vitamin C, + GARLIC (2 cloves/2 x day),

herbs that grow for the benefit of man, and the little handful of herbs kept
and steeped for sudden ailments, have served tenfold, yes, one
hundred-fold better purpose, than all the drugs hidden
under mysterious names and dealt out to the sick…” (PC 31.2)
MEDICINE AND SUPPLEMENTS HARD ON THE LUNGS:
“Every poisonous
preparation in the vegetable and mineral kingdoms taken into the system, will
leave its wretched influence, affecting the lungs…” {HL 245.1}
This includes all supplements magnesium, iodine,
potassium, etc. (2SM 278.3/279.1)

juice at times
3. Follow the Two Month Healing Program “Strictly”
“…I was shown that you have not lived healthfully. Your appetites have been unhealthy, and you have gratified the taste at the expense of the stomach. You have taken into your stomachs articles which it is impossible to convert into good blood. This has laid a heavy tax on the liver, for the reason that the digestive organs are deranged. You both have diseased livers. The health reform would be a great benefit to you both, if you would strictly carry it out…be assured that God will not work a miracle to save you from the result of your own course of action…” {CD 123.4}
WHAT TO DO FOR:
#1: COUGH
See #2 in “Natural Remedies” treatment above

Drink more water
Drink fresh ginger tea/ 3 x day
Do a nasal flush with saline water
Use a vaporizer or humidifier
Don’t eat more than 1 starchy food such as corn,
rice, or any pasta at a meal, as this will produce the nasal drip
Remove dairy from the diet
#3: ASTHMA
Do everything in the “Natural Remedies for Lung problems” in the previous page
