Neem Oil - More than just organic farming

Neem oil is my favorite oil this year. With so many uses, you’ll be glad to have some around the house.

Neem oil is derived from the fruits and seeds of Neem trees. The smell isn’t great, some say it’s a nutty mix with some garlic and it has a bitter taste so don’t use it in the kitchen. Read more…



Goldenseal for Cord Care

July 19th, 2007 CarrieRusso

When babies are born and the umbilical cord is cut, it must be cared for until is falls off. Infection can be very dangerous to a newborn so it is important to be consistent with the care of the umbilical cord. Goldenseal powder works so well and is easy to use. Goldenseal has natural antibiotic properties and dries out the cord area quickly.

To use Goldenseal, just take a small pinch with clean hands and sprinkle on the cord area. As the cord becomes dry on the outside, use a cotton swab to get the powder down into the belly button. Do this about 3 times a day, cleaning the cord area with water and drying with cotton swabs before each application.
