SWEDISH
BITTERS
The
Long
Life
Elixir!
An
Excerpt
From
Maria
Treben's
Book:
HEALTH
THROUGH
GOD'S
PHARMACY
It
sounds
almost
like
a
fairy
story,
but
it
is
true.
As
a
refugee
from
a
German
speaking
area
of
Czechoslovakia,
I
became
ill
with
TYPHOID
FEVER
in
a
camp
in
Bavaria,
caused
by
contaminated
meat
and,
through
it,
came
JAUNDICE
AND
AN
OBSTRUCTION
IN
THE
INTESTINES.
I
spent
more
than
6
months
in
hospital.
When
my
husband
got
my
mother,
my
mother-in-law,
our
child
and
myself
to
Austria,
I
was
a
young
but
sick
woman.
At
night
I
was
hit
by
terrible
pain
that
shot
through
my
body
like
a
sword.
In
these
moments
I
could
neither
sit
nor
stand,
walk
nor
lie
down:
at
the
same
time
I
VOMITED
and
had
DIARRHEA.
I
was
a
helpless
bundle
of
misery.
These
were
AFTER
PAINS
OF
THE
TYPHOID
fever
which
sometimes
can
go
on
for
years,
as
the
doctor
said.
One
day
a
woman
brought
me
a
small
bottle
containing
a
dark
brown,
strong
smelling
liquid.
She
had
heard
of
my
illness
and
wanted
to
help.
The
Swedish
Bitters
had
relieved
her
of
a
serious
complaint.
Accompanying
the
small
bottle
she
gave
me
was
a
transcript
of
an
"OLD
MANUSCRIPT"
in
which
was
explained,
in
46
points,
how
these
drops
heal
every
illness.
The
recipe
came
from
the
writings
of
a
well-known
Swedish
physician.
As
stated,
all
members
of
his
family
had
reached
an
unusual
old
age.
These
drops,
according
to
Number
43,
heal
"plague
boils
and
swellings
even
if
already
in
the
throat".
I
put
the
bottle
in
the
medicine
chest.
I
just
did
not
believe
that
these
modest
drops
could
give
me
back
my
health,
since
the
doctor
could
not
even
help
me.
Soon
I
changed
my
mind.
As
I
sat
in
front
of
a
large
basket
of
over
ripe
pears
which
needed
to
be
used
up
straight
away
I
had
another
attack.
As
I
had
been
told
that
these
Swedish
drops
could
be
used
externally
as
well,
I
did
not
hesitate
for
long
and
applied
them
as
a
compress
on
the
abdomen,
put
a
small
plastic
bag
over
the
compress
and
then
my
girdle
and
continued
my
work.
A
wonderful
feeling
spread
through
my
body
and,
suddenly,
it
felt
as
if
with
one
movement
of
the
hand,
everything
morbid
in
my
body
was
pulled
out.
I
assure
you
that
with
this
single
compress
which
I
had
on
the
whole
day
all
of
the
preceding
months
disappeared,
never
to
return.
When
my
son
was
6
years
old,
he
was
attacked
by
an
Alsatian
and
terribly
mauled
in
the
face.
Later
dark
red
scars
covered
his
face
from
the
nose
upward.
In
the
"old
manuscript"
point
33
states
that
this
tincture
takes
away
all
SCARS,
WOUNDS
AND
CUTS,
even
if
very
old,
if
moistened
up
to
40
times.
Therefore
our
son's
scars
were
now
moistened
daily.
Very
soon
they
disappeared,
even
the
ones
deep
in
the
nose.
With
these
experiences,
I
came
to
our
town
in
1953.
During
a
visit
to
a
farmhouse,
I
met
the
farmer's
wife,
a
mother
of
2
small
children,
milking
cows.
Instead
of
a
word
of
greeting
she
said:
"If
you
stood
me
against
the
well,
I
would
let
you
shoot
me."
For
weeks
she
had
suffered
from
terrible
HEADACHES
and
she
was
supposed
to
go
for
X-rays.
The
same
evening
I
sent
my
son
with
a
small
bottle
of
Swedish
Bitters
to
her,
so
that
she
might
find
relief,
at
least
at
night.
How
surprised
I
was
when,
at
7
o'clock
in
the
morning,
the
farmer
came
to
me
saying:
"What
did
you
send
my
wife?
Within
a
short
time,
after
applying
it
to
the
head,
the
headaches
had
gone.
And
in
the
morning
2
dark
brown
clots
of
the
thickness
of
a
little
finger
came
down
her
throat."
This
woman
swears
by
Swedish
Bitters
even
today
and
was
able
to
help
her
little
daughter
who
suffered
from
PNEUMONIA
years
ago.
Never
is
she
without
this
household
remedy.
For
months,
a
woman
suffered
from
FRONTAL
SINUSITIS.
She
could
not
breathe
through
her
nose
and
was
plagued
by
terrible
headaches.
Despite
antibiotics
and
radiation
treatment,
her
condition
did
not
improve.
Then
she
applied
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
over
the
forehead,
eyes
and
nose
and
already
after
the
first
use
she
felt
relief.
3
nightly
treatments
later,
large
amounts
of
pus
came
through
her
nose
and
she
was
able
to
breathe
normally
again.
From
sight
I
knew
a
young
woman
who
after
the
birth
of
her
sixth
child
became
a
shadow
of
herself.
I
spoke
to
her
and
learned
that
at
this
time
she
WAS
UNABLE
TO
EAT
ANYTHING
and
was
also
unable
to
keep
the
children
with
her.
I
recommended
Swedish
Bitters
to
her.
About
3
weeks
later
I
saw
her
as
a
healthy
young
woman
who
was
able
to
eat
normally
and
had
the
children
with
her
again.
Her
mother
had
been
in
hospital
with
a
swollen
foot
and
for
a
long
time
had
only
been
able
to
walk
with
a
stick.
Despite
75
injections
there
was
no
improvement.
Therefore
this
young
woman
sent
the
recipe
of
the
Swedish
Bitters
to
her
mother,
advising
her
to
try
them.
Now
her
mother's
foot
is
back
to
normal
and
the
stick
unnecessary.
One
day,
I
received
a
letter
from
Germany
in
which
an
acquaintance
asked
me
to
look
after
her
niece
who
was
taking
a
cure
in
Gal
Ispach.
When
the
young
woman
came
to
see
me
for
the
first
time,
I
got
a
shock.
She
was
lifted
out
of
the
car,
crutches
were
put
under
her
arms
and
it
took
her,
despite
help,
more
than
an
hour
to
come
up
into
my
flat
on
the
first
floor.
The
joints
of
both
feet
were
deformed,
the
fingers
crippled
and
unable
to
hold
anything.
When
walking,
the
BODY
THROWN
forward
and
the
legs
pulled
after.
I
stood
at
the
door,
my
hands
pressed
against
my
heart,
unable
to
say
anything
except:
"How
does
a
young
woman
like
you
have
such
a
terrible
illness?"
"Overnight
after
my
fourth
child",
she
replied.
Quite
suddenly,
almost
overnight,
this
young
woman
lay
crippled
in
her
bed.
She
was
taken
from
doctor
to
doctor,
nobody
could
help
her.
Twice
a
year
she
came
to
Gallspach
to
Dr.
Zeileis
who
had
to
tell
her
he
could
not
cure
her,
only
ease
the
trouble.
I
recommended
Swedish
Bitter
and
told
her
to
put
her
faith
in
it.
This
was
in
February,
1964.
In
September
I
received
a
telephone
call
from
the
young
woman,
asking
if
I
could
meet
her
at
the
bus
stop.
I
was
baffled,
then
surprised,
when
a
smiling
young
woman,
still
leaning
on
a
stick,
descended
the
bus.
The
STIFFNESS
AND
CRIPPLING
OF
THE
HANDS
was
gone,
as
well
as
the
DEFORMATION
OF
THE
LEGS.
Only
on
the
left
foot,
the
knee
and
ankle
were
still
swollen.
But
on
the
third
of
August,
1965,
a
year
later,
this
too
had
disappeared
completely
and
she
came
without
a
stick,
a
healthy
woman
to
take
the
cure
for
the
last
time.
She
had
put
1
tablespoon
of
Swedish
Bitters
3
times
daily
into
a
small
amount
of
lukewarm
water
and
sipped
it
before
and
after
each
meal.
I
would
like
to
give
a
few
more
examples
of
the
wonderful
effect
of
Swedish
Bitters.
From
my
sister
who
lives
in
Germany
I
learned
that
a
mutual
acquaintance
from
Leipzig
had
been
confined
to
a
wheelchair
for
15
years.
She
had
spent
the
war
years
in
Prague
and
in
1945
-
as
was
the
fate
of
many
-
had
to
stay
for
weeks
in
a
cellar
without
straw
or
any
other
bedding.
Later
she
came
to
Leipzig
with
her
husband.
Soon
she
suffered
from
terrible
DEFORMATION
OF
THE
JOINTS
and
then
came
the
life
in
a
wheelchair.
I
only
learned
of
her
difficult
fate
when
her
husband
suddenly
died
and
the
poor
CRIPPLED
WOMAN
had
to
leave
the
flat
and
move
into
a
furnished
room.
The
sending
of
herbs
and
medications
from
Austria
to
the
East
Germany
is
not
allowed,
therefore,
I
had
to
send
her
the
herb
mixture
from
a
border
town
in
Bavaria
every
second
month.
Soon
I
received
encouraging
letters.
She
took
1
tablespoon
of
Swedish
Bitters
in
a
small
amount
of
water
and
drank
half
of
it
before
and
half
of
it
after
a
meal.
She
did
this
3
times
a
day.
Slowly
the
deformations
receded
and
she
was
able
to
move
her
joints
slightly.
We
prayed,
she
in
Leipzig,
we
in
Austria.
After
9
months,
this
woman
who
had
been
tied
to
a
wheelchair
for
15
years,
could
leave
her
flat
for
the
first
time.
Slowly
she
improved
and
was
soon
able
to
do
her
daily
work
which
helpful
people
had
so
far
done
for
her.
In
the
summer
we
often
went
swimming
in
a
lake.
One
day,
the
large
piece
of
wood
that
was
used
to
sit
on
was
leaning
against
a
fence.
I
had
my
bag
next
to
it
and
was
bending
over
to
gather
up
some
things,
when
all
of
a
sudden
I
felt
this
terrific
blow
on
my
leg.
The
large
piece
of
timber
had
fallen
over
and
struck
me
right
on
the
leg.
In
no
time,
from
the
knee
downward,
it
was
dark
blue
to
purple
and
two
large
swellings,
about
the
size
of
a
fist,
appeared.
I
was
carried
to
the
car
and
then
up
to
my
room.
My
husband
wanted
to
send
for
the
doctor,
but
I
asked
him
to
apply
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
on
my
leg.
Half
an
hour
later
I
was
able
to
walk
down
the
stairs
to
the
dining
room
without
help.
The
next
day
my
leg
was
smooth,
there
were
no
more
swellings
and
the
DISCOLORATION
had
cleared
up
as
well.
Another
accident
happened
near
this
lake.
A
4
year
old
girl
was
stung
by
a
HORNET
and
her
arm
swelled
up.
I
fetched
Swedish
Bitters
and
before
the
parents
had
clothed
the
girl,
I
was
ready
with
the
compress
and
applied
it
while
the
girl
was
carried
to
the
car.
On
arrival
at
the
car,
about
3
minutes
later,
the
SWELLING
had
subsided
and
the
doctor
was
no
longer
necessary.
While
gathering
raspberries,
I
was
stung
by
a
POISONOUS
INSECT
in
the
thumb.
Overnight
the
thumb
swelled
up
and
while
shopping
a
woman
said
to
me:
"You
had
better
go
directly
to
hospital,
such
an
infection
could
cause
your
death."
Overnight
I
applied
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
and
the
next
day
my
thumb
was
back
to
normal
size.
One
time
I
had
an
accident
in
the
laundry
.
It
was
at
the
time
when
washing
machines
washed
but
did
not
rinse.
The
heavily
entangled
pieces
had
to
be
lifted
out
of
the
very
hot
water
with
wooden
tongs.
I
tend
to
do
everything
quickly
and
with
great
energy.
The
tongs
slipped
and
hit
me
in
the
eye.
Stunned
with
pain
and
half
blind
I
walked
upstairs.
As
soon
as
I
had
applied
Swedish
Bitters
pain
eased.
A
little
while
later,
I
looked
into
the
mirror
and
saw
myself
a
BLACK
EYE.
I
was
back
in
the
laundry
a
quarter
of
an
hour
later
with
a
piece
of
cotton
wool
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters
covering
the
eye,
a
small
piece
of
plastic
over
it
and
the
whole
lot
tied
up
with
a
folded
scarf.
For
a
few
days
I
kept
applying
these
compresses
overnight,
thence
there
was
no
chance
of
anything
developing
behind
the
eye.
As
I
do
every
year,
I
was
taking
a
cure
in
Kneipp
Spa
in
Muhllachken,
when
the
head
nurse
came
into
my
room
with
a
woman
doubled
up
with
pain.
She
suffered
from
GALLBLADDER
ATTACKS
and
the
doctor
had
advised
her
to
have
an
operation.
I
applied
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
on
the
area
of
the
gall
bladder
(first
Calendula
ointment
or
lard
has
to
be
applied
otherwise
the
alcohol
would
dry
out
the
skin,
then
a
piece
of
cotton
wool
is
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters,
applied
to
the
PAINFUL
AREA,
a
piece
of
dry
cotton
wool
and
a
piece
of
plastic
are
put
over
it
to
keep
it
warm.
Everything
is
now
bandaged
with
a
piece
of
cloth).
I
was
just
about
to
pull
up
her
girdle
when
she
sat
up
with
a
cry:
"The
pain
is
gone!"
She
continued
to
apply
the
compresses
and
she
took
the
Swedish
Bitters
as
drops,
internally,
3
times
a
day,
one
teaspoonful
in
a
little
water
or
tea
and
the
attacks
never
reoccurred.
For
years
I
looked
after
a
woman
who
was
all
alone.
Communication
with
her
was
somewhat
difficult,
since
she
was
HARD
OF
HEARING.
In
the
"old
manuscript"
it
says:
THEY
BRING
BACK
LOST
HEARING."
Therefore
she
had
to
moisten
the
acoustic
duct
frequently
with
Swedish
Bitters.
The
index
finger,
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters,
is
put
into
the
ear.
(Do
not
forget
to
put
a
drop
of
oil
into
the
ear
from
time
to
time,
to
avoid
itching.)
At
the
same
time
this
woman
moistened
her
temples,
her
forehead
and
the
area
around
the
eyes.
Now
we
can
communicate
normally
and
her
face
has
a
much
fresher
look.
One
day,
as
she
was
getting
out
of
the
bus,
a
car
knocked
her
down
and
she
fell
on
her
face.
Again
Swedish
Bitters
helped
her
blue-red
face
to
get
back
its
normal
color.
On
February
1st,
she
celebrated
her
89th
birthday.
How
often
have
people
who
come
to
my
talks
told
me
that
they
are
able
to
hear
again
and
have
packed
away
their
hearing
aid
thanks
to
Swedish
Bitters.
These
drops
relieve
pain
internally
or
externally,
anywhere
in
the
body,
because
the
blood
supply
to
the
affected
area
is
increased.
Therefore
it
is
appropriate
to
apply
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
to
the
back
of
the
head
of
people
who
suffer
from
EPILEPTIC
FITS.
The
cause
of
these
attacks
lies
often
back
in
the
past;
maybe
a
fall
on
the
head
or
a
shock
in
childhood.
During
a
talk
I
gave,
a
man
came
up
to
me
and
told
me
that
he
received
a
double
fracture
of
the
base
of
the
skull
in
a
very
bad
car
accident.
After
this
had
healed
he
started
to
get
a
few
EPILEPTIC
FITS
a
day.
I
recommended
Swedish
Bitters
applied
as
a
compress
to
the
back
of
the
head,
and
4
cups
of
Stinging
Nettle
tea,
to
which
2
tablespoons
of
Swedish
Bitters
were
added,
daily.
Stinging
Nettle
tea
is
necessary
for
severe
epileptic
fits.
Several
months
later
he
passed
by
my
house
to
tell
me
that
the
fits
had
stopped.
MENINGITIS,
HEAD
INJURIES
caused
by
a
FALL
OR
A
BLOW,
STUTTERING
AND
SPEECH
DISORDERS
are
treated
effectively
with
Swedish
Bitters
applied
as
a
compress
to
the
back
of
the
head.
These
compresses
are
also
beneficial
for
BURSITIS.
I
have
to
emphasize
again
that
for
all
severe
illnesses
a
doctor
has
to
be
consulted
first!
From
the
many
letters
I
have
received
I
have
learnt
that
Swedish
Bitters
applied
as
a
compress
to
the
eyes
has
been
effective
in
cases
of
a
DETACHED
RETINA
AND
PORUS
RETINA.
All
these
people
were
going
blind.
These
compresses
are
applied
to
the
closed
eye
and
left
on
for
an
hour.
HEALTHY
eyes,
especially
if
STRAINED,
can
profit
too,
if
Swedish
Bitters
is
brushed
with
the
index
finger
along
the
lid
to
the
corner
of
the
eye.
This
way
good
EYE
SIGHT
can
be
enjoyed
well
into
old
age.
Since
Swedish
Bitters
is
such
a
wonderful
remedy,
no
medicine
chest
in
the
house
would
be
without
it.
Poured
into
small
bottles
it
can
be
taken
along
on
trips.
Often
away
from
home,
the
food
is
disappointing
and
the
need
arises
to
STIMULATE
DIGESTION
and
to
shake
off
WEARINESS
AND
TIREDNESS.
In
these
cases
Swedish
Bitters
is
a
true
"elixir".
A
sip,
watered
down,
is
taken
internally
and,
externally,
some
drops
are
brushed
on
temples,
forehead,
eyes
and
the
area
behind
the
ears.
In
no
time
the
beneficial
effect
is
felt.
For
a
COLD,
with
all
its
accompanying
symptoms
such
as
weariness,
tiredness,
pressure
in
the
head
and
heaviness
in
the
stomach,
a
cotton
ball
is
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters
and
held
under
the
nose,
while
breathing
deeply.
Immediately
the
head
feel
lighter.
If
a
COLD
has
already
affected
the
BRONCHIAL
tubes,
the
moistened
cotton
ball
is
held
in
front
of
the
open
mouth
and
breathing
is
done
with
the
mouth.
Here,
too,
relief
will
be
felt.
During
times
of
influenza,
1
teaspoon,
sometimes
1
tablespoon,
diluted
with
a
little
water,
is
taken
daily.
In
this
way
one
protected
from
influenza.
Wherever
there
is
PAIN,
Swedish
Bitters
is
always
beneficial,
taken
internally
as
drops,
applied
as
a
compress
or
used
as
a
rub
or
a
massage.
Several
years
ago
I
suffered
from
RENAL
COLIC.
The
doctor
came
in
the
middle
of
his
surgery
hours.
In
the
meantime
I
had
applied
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
on
the
kidney
region
and
when
the
doctor
arrived
the
pain
had
subsided.
I
was
quite
shamefaced
because
I
had
wasted
his
valuable
time.
He
wanted
to
know
why
the
pain
had
subsided
so
quickly.
When
he
heard
that
I
had
applied
a
compress
he
said:
"Excellent,
I
do
not
have
to
give
you
an
injection!"
Swedish
Bitters
had
his
approval.
Whenever
I
came
to
his
surgery
he
would
say:
"I
WILL
NOT
PRESCRIBE
YOU
ANYTHING,
YOU
HAVE
SWEDISH
BITTERS."
It
was
he
who
had
brought
me
closer
to
herbs.
An
elderly
lady
came
to
see
me.
For
years
she
could
only
walk
with
a
stick,
since
ARTHRITIS
had
crippled
her;
nothing
helped
and
she
could
not
take
it
any
longer.
1
teaspoon
of
Swedish
Bitters
in
Stinging
Nettle
tea
and
Horsetail
tea,
taken
3
times
a
day
made
a
difference
and
3
weeks
later
I
heard
she
was
able
to
walk
without
a
stick.
A
member
of
our
small
church
choir
INJURED
HER
KNEE
while
ice
skating.
Since
it
was
a
small
choir
she
was
missed
badly.
After
church
I
met
her
in
town.
It
was
impossible
for
her
to
mount
the
steep
staircase
up
to
the
choir.
A
few
moments
later
I
was
at
her
place
with
the
things
required
for
a
compress.
As
a
doctor's
wife
she
looked
skeptically
at
my
doings.
This
changed
when
he
was
able
to
bend
her
knee
a
few
minutes
later
and
the
next
day
she
was
able
to
mount
the
staircase.
But
unfortunately
another
member
was
missing,
due
to
a
SPRAINED
ANKLE
acquired
while
enjoying
our
so
healthy
winter
sport.
We
knew
that
she
was
already
at
the
casualty
ward.
Now
the
lady
who
only
the
day
before
had
a
STIFF
KNEE
asked
me
to
go
and
put
the
compress
on
the
sprained
ankle.
I
was
reluctant
to
do
it,
because
the
woman
had
been
treated
at
the
hospital,
but
thinking
I
might
find
myself
singing
alone
I
changed
my
mind.
I
found
her
lying
on
the
couch
with
a
very
swollen,
painful
ANKLE.
In
the
hospital
she
was
told
just
to
keep
her
foot
raised.
Swedish
Bitters
applied
as
a
compress
brought
her
immediately
some
relief.
The
next
day
she
came
to
the
choir,
although
the
roads
were
icy.
She
was
without
pain
and
her
ankle
was
normal.
One
day
in
a
restaurant
I
saw
a
man
who
was
obviously
in
pain.
I
got
out
my
Swedish
Bitters
and
gave
him
a
tablespoonful
in
a
little
lukewarm
water.
Color
came
back
to
his
face
and
he
could
not
believe
it
when
the
pain
subsided.
6
months
later
I
came
back
to
the
same
place,
I
had
already
forgotten
the
incident,
when
a
gentleman
came
up
and
thanked
me
profusely.
He
looked
years
younger.
With
the
help
of
Swedish
Bitters
he
had
lost
all
complaints
which
ACUTE
GASTRITIS
AND
DISORDER
OF
THE
PANCREAS
had
caused
him.
Swedish
Bitters
cleanses
the
BLOOD,
IMPROVES
CIRCULATION,
DISPELS
FLATULENCE,
HEADACHES,
INDIGESTION,
STOMACH,
GALLBLADDER,
LIVER
AND
KIDNEY
DISORDERS
(even
if
alcohol
is
not
allowed).
For
PHLEBITIS
AND
THROMBOSIS,
Calendula
ointment
is
smeared
thickly
on
the
affected
areas
and
then
Swedish
Bitters,
as
a
compress,
is
applied.
When
healed,
Stinging
Nettle
foot
baths
are
taken
to
improve
the
circulation.
These
drops
stimulate
a
SLUGGISH
INTESTINE
and
dispel
DIZZINESS
AND
LAMENESS.
For
all
illnesses
they
are
most
beneficial,
even
for
CANCER.
For
acute
attacks
of
pain,
1
tablespoon
is
taken
in
a
little
water
or
tea.
If
1
teaspoonful
in
a
little
water
is
taken
3
times
daily,
morning,
noon
and
evening,
good
health
is
kept
till
old
age.
Swedish
Bitters
awakens
vitality
and
strengthens
the
life
force
so
needed
in
our
time.
Preserve
through
them
your
health,
strength
and
joy
for
your
family,
work
and
fellow
man.
During
a
visit
at
a
farm
I
heard
that
the
12
year
old
son
was
to
have
an
operation.
PUS
had
formed
behind
the
ear
drum,
due
to
an
inflammation.
I
was
against
the
operation,
since
sometimes,
in
similar
cases,
deafness
occurs.
A
small
piece
of
cotton
wool
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters
was
put
in
the
boy's
ear.
A
lot
of
pus
was
discharged
daily,
the
pain
subsided
and
an
operation
was
not
necessary.
A
52
year
old
man
treated
for
10
years
for
CARDIAC
ASTHMA,
had
to
take
8
tablets
daily.
For
years
he
could
only
sleep
sitting
up
and,
for
every
step
he
took,
he
had
to
throw
up
his
arms
to
get
some
air.
I
was
of
the
opinion
that
this
was
caused
not
by
the
heart
but
the
liver.
I
applied
Swedish
Bitters
as
a
compress
to
the
area
of
the
liver.
He
had
to
drink
1
cup
of
Common
Club
Moss
tea
to
which
a
teaspoon
of
Swedish
Bitters
had
been
added
in
the
morning
and
some
in
the
evening,
daily.
How
right
I
was
shown
the
first
night,
when
he
was
able
to
sleep
lying
down.
Swedish
Bitters
and
Common
Club
Moss
tea
wrought
about
a
swift
and
good
improvement,
so
that,
3
days
later,
he
who
had
stepped
out
of
his
house
for
years
was
able
to
walk
around
his
little
garden
twice
during
the
day.
Slowly
he
is
recovering.
A
WOUND
which
would
not
heal
after
an
operation
closed
overnight,
after
the
patient
had
taken
a
large
sip
of
the
bottle
of
Swedish
Bitters.
This
single
sip
caused
the
wound
to
close
which
had
been
open
for
three
years
and
had
to
be
dressed
several
times
a
day.
A
lady
from
Burgenland,
Austria,
told
me
that
her
23
year
old
niece
had
an
AUDITORY
DEFECT
since
birth.
She
was
told
that
an
operation
in
her
case
would
be
without
success.
This
lady
then
asked
her
niece
to
try
Swedish
Bitters.
They
were
very
surprised
when,
14
days
later,
the
niece
was
able
to
hear
normally.
My
dear
readers,
I
do
not
want
to
withhold
a
letter
from
Granz,
Syria:
"By
chance
or
maybe
Providence,
I
had
a
talk
with
a
74
year
old
man
in
the
bus.
This
man
got
back
his
hearing
which
he
had
lost
during
the
war,
when
receiving
HEAD
AND
BRAIN
INJURIES.
Only
3
times
had
he
put
a
piece
of
cotton
wool
moistened
with
Swedish
Bitters
in
his
ears."
(Letters
provide
the
proof
of
such
accounts.)
A
gentleman
from
Bavaria
reports:
"Through
an
accident
I
INJURED
MY
RIGHT
ARM.
Swedish
Bitters
soon
alleviated
the
terrible
pain.
After
almost
10
years
of
DEAFNESS
in
one
ear,
I
was
able
to
hear
the
ticking
of
the
alarm
clock
again.
Only
once
did
I
put
Swedish
Bitters
into
my
ear."
How
many
DEAF
people
could
be
helped
this
way!
Even
if
only
a
single
one
could
get
back
his
hearing.
After
a
talk
I
gave,
I
learned
from
a
listener
that,
for
2
years,
she
suffered
from
a
WEAK
ANUS
MUSCLE.
The
doctor
said
it
was
irreparable.
Swedish
Bitters,
together
with
Shepherd's
Purse,
finely
cut,
macerated
in
rye
whisky
or
vodka
are
kept
in
place
for
10
days,
heals
muscular
atrophy
and
serious
muscular
disorders;
four
cups
of
Lady's
Mantle
tea
and
six
sips
of
Calamus
root
tea
a
day
remedied
it.
In
a
telephone
call
from
Vienna
I
heard
a
female
voice
say:"
THANK
YOU
SO
MUCH
FOR
SWEDISH
BITTERS."
When
12
years
old,
during
a
school
hike
in
the
mountains,
this
woman
was
inadvertently
hit
in
the
face
by
the
girl
in
front
of
her
with
her
climbing
boot.
Hence,
for
40
years,
off
and
on,
she
suffered
from
a
FESTERING
JAW
and
had
undergone
16
operations
and
several
punctures.
She
had
to
break
off
her
studies,
was
unable
to
take
the
profession
she
wanted
and
plagued
by
continuous
pain,
she
looked
after
a
household.
When
52
years
old
she
read
about
Swedish
Bitters,
applied
it
as
a
compress
on
the
jaw
area
and
was
freed
from
all
pain.
"OLD

6.
If
the
THROAT
IS
HOT
OR

For
PAIN
AND
BUZZING
IN
THE
EAR
a
piece
of
cotton
wool
is
moistened
and
put
into
the
ear.
It
is
very
beneficial
and
brings
back
LOST
HEARING.
14.
For
MORNING

1
tablespoon
of
the
drops
in
red

In

last
14
days
of
PREGNANCY
if
1
tablespoon
of
the

is
taken
mornings
and
evenings,
it
PROMOTES
THE
BIRTH.
For
easy
EXPELLING
OF
THE
AFTERBIRTH,
a
coffee
spoonful
is
given
every
2
hours,
until
the
afterbirth
is
expelled
without

16.
If,
after
a
birth
when

subsides
if
a

21.
HEMORRHOIDS

if,
in

they
are
moistened
frequently
and
if
the
drops
are
taken
internally,
especially
before
going
to
bed,
they
soften
the
hemorrhoids.
22.
If
someone

27.
If

EPILEPSY,
he

PROUD
FLESH
has
developed,
everything
is
washed
well
with
white
wine
and
a
piece
of
cloth
moistened
with
the
drops
is
laid
upon
it.
32.
They
heal,
without
danger,
all
WOUNDS,
be
they
from
a
stab
or
a

if
they
are
moistened
frequently.
A
piece
of
cloth
is
taken,
moistened
with
the
drops
and
the
wounds
covered
therewith.
They
take
away
the
pain
in
a
short
time,
permit
no
BLEMISH
OR
PETRIFACTION
and
heal
also
old
wounds
which
were
caused
by
a
SHOT.
If
there
are
holes,
the
drops
are
sprinkled
into
the
wound
which
need
not
necessarily
be
cleaned
beforehand.
Through
repeated
applying
of
the
moistened
cloth
healing
occurs
in
a
short
time.
33.
They
take
away
SCARS,
even
if

and
leave
no
scars.

all
BURNS
AND
SCALDS,
be
they
caused
by
fire,
hot
water
or
fat,
if
the

are
moistened
frequently.
No
blisters
form,
the
heat
is
taken
out
and
even
festering
blisters
are
healed.
36.
They
serve
against
SWELLING
AND
BRUISES,
be
they
caused
by
a

fall.
37.
If
someone
cannot
eat
with
APPETITE,
they
bring
back
the
lost
taste.
38.
In
ANEMIA
they
bring
back
the
lost
color,
if
taken
for
a
period
in
the
morning.
They
cleanse
the
blood
and
form
new
blood
and
promote
circulation.
39.
RHEUMATIC
PAINS
in
the
limbs
are
eased
if
the
drops
are
taken
morning
and
evening
and
a
moistened
cloth
is
applied
to
the
aching
parts.
40.
They
heal
FROST
BITTEN
HANDS
AND
FEET,
even
if
there
are
open
parts,
if
a
moistened
cloth
is
applied
as
often
as
possible,
but
especially
at
night.
41.
For
CORNS,
a
cotton
ball,
moistened
with
the

is
applied
and
kept
moist.
After
3
days
the
corns
fall
out
or
can
be
removed
painlessly.
42.
They
heal
BITES
of
mad
dogs
and
other
animals,
if
taken
internally
since
they
heal
and
destroy
all
poison.
A
moistened
cloth
is
laid
upon
the
wounds.
43.
For
PLAGUE
and
other
INFECTIOUS
DISEASES
it
is
well
to
take
them
repeatedly
since
they
heal
PLAGUE
BOILS
AND
SWELLINGS
even
if
already
in
the
throat.
44.
He
who
cannot
sleep
at
night
takes
these
drops
before
going
to
bed.
For
nervous
SLEEPLESSNESS
a

the
spot
with

the
liquid
Swedish
Bitters.
(editor:
I
have
personally
SEEN
THIS
WORK!)
46.
He
who
takes
these
drops
mornings
or
evenings
daily
needs
no
further
medication,
since
they
strengthen
the
body,
tone
up
the
nerves
and
the
blood,
take
away
the
TREMBLING
OF
HANDS
AND
FEET.
In
short,
they
take
away
all
illnesses.
The
body
stays
supple,
the
face
young
and
beautiful.
