Quite a few years ago the librarian at ARE contacted me and asked if I would write something for them about my use of Palma Christi, the oil that heals, for the Virginia Beach Library.  Here is that communication.

Hello Linda, 

I finally found a break in all the hectic things in my life to write you.  I am sending you the information about clients I have worked with who have been helped by the Palma Christi for their eye conditions. 

I have read Edgar Cayce since I was quite young.  I am always amazed by the results I see with his health suggestions. 

Just after our emails and my blog post I spoke with a friend in a small community between Pullman and Spokane.  She asked me about help for eye problems for some friends of hers. 

Actually, this served as a stimulus for me to once again make up my little eye care kits so that others can be helped where my practice is now based.  I ordered my supplies today! 

I hope this is in a form that you find helpful. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions. 

Thank you again for contacting me.  I am pleased to help spread the word about natural health care.

Using Palma Christi for Eye Health

I have worked with people who have had cataracts, most pre-surgery, although several post-surgery cases.  I have also worked with people who had floaters, macular degeneration, detached retina, and glaucoma.  One case involved a corneal cut done by accident.  Many others were involving retinopathy, pollution or environmental irritation, allergy and the build-up of matter in the eyes (one was a Golden Retriever rescued dog), blepharitis, dry eyes and Sjögren’s Syndrome. 

In some cases I use an herbal extract with cayenne and a few other eye health herbs as an eye wash.  I also suggest taking capsules of the same formula so that the approach is external and internal.  Some people do not like to do this treatment even though I have had excellent results, especially for people with diabetes. 

I always recommend increasing the amount of vitamin C a person takes daily to no less than 3000 mg, in divided doses.  It can be much more and I advise to take this until you notice a laxative effect.  Then you know just how deficient you are in Vitamin C.  In some cases I also suggest a combination of Vitamin A and Beta Carotene.  Vitamin A is for eye health.  Beta-carotene will not work alone in some people because they cannot convert it to Vitamin A.  

When I do not use the herbal approach I always have the Leaflady’s Eye Care Kits ready.  I always made these up for clients because small bottles of the Palma Christi are usually not available.  I fill a one ounce amber glass dropper bottle and use a dropper cap for the lid. 

The dose is very simple:  One drop in each eye at bedtime. 

The results always amaze people.   

I am not sure about the doctors.
