Coriander Testimonials
"My mom was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 3 years ago.
I immediately tried oils for her. First we tried dill -- no luck. Then we tried fennel -- it, too did not work. I then got some coriander for her and this has been amazing for her.
She puts a drop on the inside of each ankle at bedtime and her blood sugars are always normal.
She doesn't even watch her diet very closely (although the Dr. keeps saying 'You must really watch your diet
-- your blood sugar is perfect!'

Chamomile is rubbed into the blisters clockwise and very firmly, especially when
