Often called 'The Long Life Elixir.'
This was Maria's favorite and most often recommended herbal, which she included
with practically all her healing works. Whatever your ailment or health issue,
she recommended Swedith Bitters along with the other specific herbals that went
with it. She made a cream ointment with it, as well, which was always very popular.

so cherished this marvelous herbal combination . . .

disorders of the bone marrow can all benefit from the tea.An ointment prepared from yarrow flowers is also
very effective for hemorroids. [label]

They are designed for topical use only.The preparation for them
starts with the herbs being finely chopped, then placed in a roaster
or large pot and covered with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The mixture is
allowed to cook for 24 hours and stirred often. The mix is then
filtered and pure beeswax is added. Still warm, the cream is
poured into previously prepared glass jars or ointment pots.
Then this is allowed to cool and solidify.If you don't have the
time to make your own herbal creams, we have done them for you,
as you can see in the main column at left.
