Episode XVI Old wives tails or home remedies?

Some of you may believe in the use of natural products.  There are so many.  My guest this week, Willie Jean Carrington, grew up in Louisana and their family survived illness by using many home remedies.  Many in the south live in poverty and they had to use simple means to maintain their health.  We always hear that years ago people weren't as healthy, I think just the opposite is true.  Is there a way to recover from almost any type of disease?  Perhaps we have forgotten some of the simpler things that can help us.  I have heard many remarkable stories about amazing healings, more will be shared at a later date. Some questions to ponder:  Whoever put us here must have given us the knowledge on how to cure ourselves, right?  Wouldn't those cures be found in nature?  Why does the body get sick to begin with... isn't dis-ease (many times not always) just caused by our body being out of balance?  Is it possible to avoid a lot of disease just by changing our attitude?  A couple of years ago I met a woman who believed she beat her cancer by taking a natural product, she feels it saved her life.  She had run out of options with modern medicine.  She also told me she had to change her attitude, because that too was affecting her health.  She told me she actually removed all of those people in her life that were creating a negative energy around her.  Pehaps she will be on the show eventually if she feels comfortable enough to speak about something that truly is a personal and private issue.
