Ingredients














  •  


Preparation


  1. With a knife, pare down the central stem at the base of each cabbage leaf.
  2. In a
    large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the cabbage leaves until they
    are tender, about 5 minutes. Plunge into ice water and drain. Set aside.
  3. With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
  4. In a
    large skillet, brown the onion and bacon in the oil. Season with salt
    and pepper. Add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute. Allow to cool
    in a large bowl. Add the meat, rice, salt, mustard, thyme and 500 ml (2
    cups) of tomato sauce. Season with pepper. Blend well with a wooden
    spoon or your hands. Set aside.
  5. Spread the remaining tomato sauce and broth in the bottom of a 33 x 23-cm (13 x 9-inch) baking dish. Set aside.
  6. Take a
    bit of stuffing and shape into a cigar shape. Place in the centre of a
    cabbage leaf, fold the sides toward the centre and roll. Put the cigars
    side by side in the baking dish. Add a slice of bacon on each roll.
    Cover with foil and bake for 1h30 to 2 hours until the cabbage becomes
    fork tender.

Myastania Gravis and Remission




Found this good article on Myastania Gravis disease and the possible remission.I was diagnosed with this disease in 1989 and suffered many symptoms from this disease   I had a Plasmapheresi Procedure done at the time i was diagnosed it was very helpful I also had a thymectomy procedure also .
I have been in Remission for a few years now but feel some of the symptoms coming back.
I am very glad I have read this article I see that is normal and not to worry about it if it does come back as the article says we can live a very normal life if we take care of ourselves. I n writing this post I hope to encourage anyone that is experiencing the same syptoms as I am not to worry.
It will all be ok !

Healing Amish Black Salve

Healing Amish Black Salve-The Recipe For The Most Powerful Healing Ointment!:



 The Amish have never used anything made with modern technology. They respect nature, and always use natural remedies. Have you ever heard of the black salve? It’s used in the treatment of inflammation, infections, cysts, and ulcers. Some use it to treat...


The black salve removes impurities and splinters. It doesn’t leave any stains, and you can wash it off with ease. The black salve soothes spider bites, and eliminates toxins, blemishes and dark spots. It’s safe, and even children can use it.
Ingredients:
  • 3 tbsp. macerate of comfrey, calendula and plantain (It’s strong anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, healing and antioxidant agent)
  • 2 tsp. Shea butter (anti-inflammatory agent, eases penetration)
  • 2 tbsp. coconut oil (nourishes and heals)
  • 2 tbsp. beeswax
  • 1 tsp. vitamin E oil (soothes, heals skin)
  • 2 tbsp. activated carbon powder (draws out bacteria and toxins)
  • 2 tbsp. kaolin clay (extracts chemicals and toxins, stir it with wooden or plastic spoon)
  • 2 tbsp. honey (moisturizer, antibacterial agent)
  • 20 drops lavender essential oil (regenerative, pain-relieving agent)
Preparation:
First, prepare your macerate. Chop the plants finely. You can prepare your macerate in two ways. You can either soak the plans in the oil for 4 weeks (seal the jar) or heat the oil and herbs in a double-bottom bowl, and cook on low for an hour. You should get a dark oil with strong smell.
  1. Boil some water, and pour it in a bowl. Put a jar in it, and add in the macerate, Shea utter, coconut oil, beeswax, vitamin E and honey. Stir with a wooden spoon until well dissolved.
  2. Take the jar out, and add in your activated charcoal, kaolin, and lavender essential oil. Stir well.
  3. Transfer the balm into small jars.
  4. Keep your balm in tightly closed containers.
