Testimony:

I used the Idaho Tansy twice now for colds/flu (don't really know what it was..) by rubbing on the stomach, feet and spine. Within hours (the first bout of the virus), I was feeling almost 100%. The second time I had a run-in with a similar bug, it took two days to feel totally normal, though it never took me down entirely. Both times, Plague Defense didn't really seem to do anything for me, but the Idaho Tansy jumped right into the ring and knock the virus out! ~ T.S.

Safety:

Avoid eye contact. In case of accidental contact, put a few drops of any pure vegetable oil in the eye. Water will not adequately dilute the oil. We’ve never known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your doctor if necessary.

Disclaimer:

If pregnant, nursing or under a doctor’s care, consult your healthcare provider prior to use.
