Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In a youthful America Richard Halliburton praised youth while a misfit, a rebel,who became wildly successful because of his wildly improbable life. He swam the Panama Canal as the S.S. Halliburton. He sailed across the Pacific in a Chinese junk. He starred in a 1930s Hollywood movie. He witnessed Japanese troops invading China. In an open-cockpit biplane he flew across the Sahara Desert to Timbuktu, looking for gasoline barrels hidden by the sand. His ship was boarded by pirates. He risked arrest in the 1930s Soviet Union and interviewed an assassin of Czar Nicholas and family, confirming what happened to the Royals, but few believed him. (But in 1979 Alexander Avdonin confirmed it.) A restless man, his energy drove him in search of new adrenalin highs. He was famous in his time, more than Amelia Earhart, and now he is forgotten. Of his fame he was humble enough to know he would become forgotten.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - From the ancient times the use of plants (food, herbs, palms, shrubs, trees etc.) has been the main source and of man's survival, providing both nutritional and curative resources for his optimum health, as designed by God, his Physician. A few ancient nations like Egypt, Israel, Greece, Rome, China, Japan and India have also used plants to treat several hard-to-cure diseases, such as all types of cancers and diabetes. Some of the plants include sweet basil, rosemary, thyme, been, fever herb, umpkin fruits and seeds, alliums species (onion family) eucalyptus, mahogany, spathodea, pawpaw, tomato, guava, dendelon, Shea butter, sweet potato, blackjack, amaranths, etc., to treat or cure these notorious and deadly diseases. The concept and belief in the use of these plants to treat and cure diseases actually indicate that they possess disease-fighting chemicals, phyltom nutrients, functional food potential and antiviral, antibacterial, antheseptic, ant-protozoa and anti-fungal properties. Modern scientific research into plants has basically proved the nutritional and healing values in these plants that have been used in treating and curing degenerative diseases sometime and somewhere in many nations on all the continents of the world. For instance: MANIHOT ESCULENTA (Cassava)DISEASES - Age-related manicula degeneration, anaemia, bleeding cut, cancers, cholera, diarrhoea, eye infection, poor blood circulation, scurvy, skin disorders, vomiting and weak immunity. NUTRITIONAL PROPERTIES, VALUES AND ACTIONS Alpha-carotenes, anticoagulant, antimicrobial, antioxidants, antiviral, beta-carotenes, carbohydrate, chlorophyll, dietary fibre (roughage), hydro cyanic acid (HCN), iron (Fe), protein, starch, vitamin A (carotenes), vitamins B complex, vitamins C (ascorbic acid) and water (H2O).MEDICAL PREPARATION S AND USES: LEAF - The juice of the leaf is applied topically to treat newly bleeding cuts to stop the oozing blood and avoid excessive loss of blood. The leaf is Incorporated, or added, to the daily diet to supply vitamins A, B complex and C to improve or treat eye infections, tone the skin, promote hair growth and it acts as an immune booster. The leaf part contains hydro cyanic accident (HCN), so it should be books or steamed to dissipate the compound before eating. One or two drop of the juice of the leaf may be applied on the eye (s) 2 times daily to treat eye infections like 'Apollo.' Likewise, 2 or 3 drop of the juice of the leaf may be applied topically 3 times daily on the mid-part of the head as well as on the eyes to stop diarrhea, cholera and vomiting in both children and adults. TUBER - The tuber is suitable for consumption by diabetics due to its high starch content which regulates diabetes. Cassava tubers are a far better food choice for diabetics than refined or polished grains due to the loss of vitamins and minerals sustained by the latter during processing. This loss spikes the serum blood sugar to cause susceptibility for the creation of diabetes.…
