May help fight Staph Aureus

Excerpt from a 1948 published paper about
Lomatium entitled "Antibiotic Agents
Separated from the Root of Lace-Leaved
Leptotaenia (Lomatium)." (see below for
full citation)

The results demonstrated:
"...The first colorless oil ... to inhibit
completely Staphylococcus aureus and
Escherichia coli... after five minutes'
contact with or without shaking. No
evidence of growth in cultures was
observed in cultures removed after one
hours' contact."


Potent natural antiviral and antibacterial.
Helps inhibit growth of candida.
Useful against a broad spectrum of stubborn infections.
Stimulates immune response and decreases inflammation.
Good tasting and alcohol-free, great for kids and adults!
Part of the BrainChild Natural Candida Program
The Lomatium dissectum plant is a natural medicine with extensive traditional use by the
Native Americans of the Pacific Northwest and Northern Nevada, where it grows. It has been
used primarily for upper respiratory infections, although many other uses have been noted.
When the 1918 influenza epidemic hit Northern Nevada, Dr. Ernst Krebs of Carson City noticed
that unlike others, the local Washoe native people were not dying of the flu. He asked about
their medicine, which turned out to be Lomatium. Botanists named it Leptotaenia dissecta until
1942, when it was renamed Lomatium dissectum.

In recent years, Lomatium has been widely used for upper respiratory tract infections, both viral
and bacterial in origin. It may slow or halt the progression of a cold or flu, or help with asthma
and bronchitis, and can be helpful in severe states of immunodeficiency. Lomatium is also an
effective helper in fighting Candida. When used to help fight yeast, Lomatium may be rotated
with our other yeast fighters, four days each. Anecdotally, some parents of autistic children
have reported symptom improvements while using Lomatium.

An early study of Lomatium dissectum (1948) showed some level of inhibition of the growth of
all 62 strains and species of bacteria and fungi tested. The infection strains tested included
Clostridia, Candida, Shigella, Pseudomonas, E. coli, Staphylococcus. Aureus, Streptococcus,
Diplococcus pneumonia, Corynebacterium diptheria, Hemphilus influenza, Neisseria gonorrhea
and Tuberculosis. This list illustrates the broad range of infections which Lomatium may help
with.

A small number of individuals see a rash when using Lomatium. This is believed to be a
cleansing reaction, and is not dangerous. If a rash is seen, reduce dosage, and it should subside
in a few days. Some herbalists suggest taking Oregon Grape or Dandilion along with Lomatium,
to reduce the chance of a rash. Discontinue use if rash lasts more than a week. Consult your
practitioner if needed.

Contraindications:
Do not use Lomatium if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Interactions:
None known

Ingredients:
Organically grown Lomatium Dissectum 1:4 extract, purified water, kosher vegetable glycerine.

ADULT DOSING
Full adult dose is 30-60 drops in a glass of water or other drink, 3 times a day. Start at half dose
and work up to full dose over first few days, to avoid herxheimer reaction (die off).

CHILD DOSING
Half of adult dose. For sensitive children, start with one drop, 3 times a day and increase
gradually to 15 drops, 3 times a day in juice, water or other drink.
