His research has found it was possible to stimulate the regrowth
of hair. He initial subjects were injured animals from automobile
accidents that had large areas of their hair (fur) detached
or torn away. His suggested the following treatment protocol
for humans.
Treatment
1. Applied gentle vibration to the scalp, acts to loosen it
and allow a greater
circulation to the

HorseTail (Silica)
Horsetail (Equisetum Arvense), also known as Silica, has been
long used by herbologist and natural healers all over the world.
Horsetail is rich in silica and silicon. It also contains high
levels of potassium, calcium, and a significant variety of fatty
acids. Horsetail, when included into the daily diet, facilitates
all connective tissues to build and/or regenerate in about one
half the time. It also encourages the absorption of calcium
and the breakdown of vitamin B. Horsetail, not only stimulates
new hair and fingernail growth, but also helps eliminate excess
oil from skin and hair in the process.
Horsetail
Horsetail has a wonderful healing activation and repair properties
that nourish all connective tissues, bone, blood vessels, skin,
nails and hair. It makes connective tissues and bones stronger,
thicker, and resilient to higher stress loads. And Horsetail
allows the natural healing processes to occur, not only better,
but also faster. Some of the more popular uses for this herb
include:
1. Arthritis
2. Bed wetting
3. Bladder disorders
4. Body’s new growth during the first twenty years of
life
5. Circulation enhancement
6. Connective tissue repair (all), such as, ligaments, tendons,
muscles, bone, and
cartilage
7. Detoxification
8. Finger nail growth
9. Hair growth
10. Immune system (building)
11. Incontinence
12. Kidney disorders, such as, kidney stones
13. Nervous system (repairing and building)
14. Skin disorders
15. Urinary tract disorders
16. Water retention disorders (as a diuretic)
17. Wound healing (external & internal) for stopping bleeding,
antibiotic properties,
and
for its unique ability to initiate the healing process at the
wound site
Horsetail is also used for:
1. Healing all connective tissue, such as broken bones (hard
tissue) and muscle,
tendon and ligaments
(soft tissue).
2. Straightening and helps prevent hernia, ruptures, or fractures
of connective
tissue, bone, and peri
tissues (the tissues that surround other tissues, structures,
and organs)
3. Helps prevent and helps accelerate recovery of bruising and
swelling from
trauma or jaundice
4. Restores both vascular channels and blood loss out of its
proper vascular channels
5. Aids in the phagocytic (clean-up) actions in the body
6. Helps the bowels to function properly and aids in digestion
7. Stimulates the kidneys and functions as a diuretic
8. Used in liver and gallbladder disease and disorders
9. Used in the treatment of skin disorders
10. Helps eye problems and opens blocked tear ducts
11. Stimulates hair growth
Horsetail is an amazing Herb that helps build and provides elasticity
to bones, hair, skin, nails, and teeth. Fractured bones heal
in half the time when horsetail is included as a supplement
in the daily diet.
Detoxification
Horsetail is a diuretic and astringent that has been used to
help control incontinence including bed-wetting - it both strengthens
the bladder and eliminates water. It is a good "Spring
Cleaning" detoxification herb. Like with connective tissues
there also is evidence that horsetail builds the immune and
nervous systems, as well. It is recommended for urinary tract
infections due to its antibiotic properties.
Horsetail is a very important organic Herb used in the preventing
and the repairing of connective tissues, such as, bone, muscles,
tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, nerves, skin, and other body
structures. It is very constructively used in accelerating bone
regeneration during the repair process shortening the healing
times.
Athletic Training
It should not be surprising that athletes use Horsetail as a
daily dietary supplement in helping to prevent injuries. In
prevention, horsetail helps allow the building of connective
tissues and bones to grow stronger, more resilient, and recover
faster from overstress and injury. This quality is most definitely
an asset in any form of competition. |
| Recommended Dosages |
Pehabilitation
Orally, 1 to 3 capsules (taken with the meal) daily depending
upon the degree of stress demands placed upon your body. The
general population will require a smaller dosage than that of
athletes and business executives. But remember, the high the
mental or physical stress loads and demands placed upon you,
the higher the daily-required dosage. Horsetail works better
when taken with a meal.
Rehabilitation
Orally, 3 to 6 capsules (taken with each meal) daily. Take one
to two capsules with each meal. Normally, injured body tissues
repair and regenerate themselves in a time range from 7 to 120
days. Horsetail will shorten that time period by approximately
one half.
During The First Week Of Usage
During its first week of usage you may want to build a faster
higher concentration (titer) of horsetail within the body. This
can be accomplished by a few different methods.
1. By placing the contents of one capsule under the tongue,
for two or more
minutes, each morning
for the first week.
2. By placing the contents of one, or two, capsules in a cup
of hot water (tea)
drinking it
just before bedtime for the first week.
3. Or, by adding one additional capsule to the morning dosage
for the first week.

In all athletic competition, performance is the name of the
game. Out of all the Herbal products available that I have actually
tried and used, Natures Sunshine’s "Horsetail"
has consistently out performed the rest. Horsetail has 360 mg
(5.56 grains silica) per capsule.
Is It Safe
To date, there is no records of Horsetail ever having any harmful
effects to man. However, there are abundant accounts and records
attesting to the great benefits found from the re-establishment
in the quality of man’s health when it is included into
the daily diet.

Baldness: Science Seeks A
Cure
Excessive hair loss is a problem, which is becoming increasingly
wide spread among both men and women. Every day a normally healthy
scalp will shed from 20 to 60 hairs and also begin growing a
certain number of new ones. When hair loss exceeds the rate
of new growth, thinning and baldness result. Thinning hair is
often attributed to aging, but it may also occur in young people,
and the causes are actually many and varied. Hair loss has been
known to occur as a result of illness, childbirth, dermatological
diseases, excessive smoking, emotional stress or the intake
of certain drugs. The most common medical categories of hair
loss are known as male pattern baldness and female pattern baldness.
Male pattern baldness comprises about 95% of all baldness in
men. It occurs in about 75% of the male population especially
those over age 25. The typical pattern of hair loss is known
as "horseshoe baldness". It begins with thinning at
the sides of the scalp and the crown, and eventually leaves
the crown bald.
Although heredity may play a part in male pattern baldness,
other possible factors are hormonal imbalances, nervous tension,
dandruff, and dietary deficiencies. An increase in the male
hormone androgen can, paradoxically, trigger both losses in
scalp hair and new hair growth in other areas of the body. Nervous
tension impedes the circulation and nutrition of the deeper
scalp tissue, disrupting the flow of nutrient hormones and enzymes
to the scalp. Dandruff and excessive oiliness can also cause
hair loss, which may be due to an excess of fats and carbohydrates
in the diet. Another dietary factor is an excess of salt. Essential
to hair growth are adequate protein, the B-complex vitamins,
and a number of trace minerals, including iodine.
In male pattern baldness, the hair that is lost does not generally
return. The is as opposed to the spotty variety in which hair
falls out due to stress and can in most cases, be regrown in
a few months. Massage and topical applications to the scalp
are reported to have no value in male pattern baldness.
Female pattern baldness can occur in women of all ages, though
it is more common in later years. Thinning of the scalp hair
is especially prevalent after menopause.
As in male pattern baldness, hormonal imbalance, nervous tension,
dandruff, and dietary deficiencies are all-important factors.
Additionally, a common cause of hair loss in women is excessive
strain on the hair shaft due to hair setting and coiffure practices,
which can pull the hair out of the follicle and cause permanent
hair loss in severe cases. Changing to a more relaxed styling
procedure will usually restore the disturbed follicles. The
incautious use of hair waving and straightening preparations
may also cause a temporary loss of hair, as can use of a hairbrush
having stiff, irregularly tufted bristles, and use of an excessively
hot hair dryer
Scientists clearly recognize that the causes of baldness are
deeply rooted in the stress and artificiality of the modern
lifestyle. Certain preventive measures are recognized as valuable,
but how to regrow hair that has been lost remains, for the most
part, a medical mystery.
The above information has been summarized from articles in "Today's
Health" and other publications of the American Medical
Association.
EDGAR CAYCE’S BALDNESS TREATMENT
The Edgar Cayce readings offer New Hope for effective prevention
and treatment of falling hair by safe and natural methods. In
fact, Cayce guaranteed that consistent application of the treatments
he advised would be rewarded by healthy, new hair growth provided
the hair follicles were still alive. The treatment procedures
found in the readings consisted of both internal and external
measures.
In surveying the Cayce readings which dealt with hair and scalp
problems a clear pattern of causation and treatment can be seen.
Falling hair, dandruff, and related disorders were typically
attributed to a combination of poor scalp circulation improper
diet, and glandular imbalance or hypofunction.
Correcting this condition internally usually required dietary
changes, and often iodine supplementation to stimulate the thyroid
gland as well. The single most frequently suggested type of
external treatment was the massaging of pure crude oil into
the scalp. About 30 readings suggested crude oil application
to improve both the circulation of the scalp and the tone, luster
and thickness of the hair.
The following is a summary, from reading 4056-1, of one of the
most widely following treatments for falling hair:
Atomidine
Begin with an Atomidine series: one drop each morning, taken
in a glass of water before breakfast. Continue for five days,
then leave off for a five-day rest period". One of these
rest days, give the scalp a thorough massage - at least 30 to
40 minutes - with crude oil preferably using an electric vibrator
with a suction cup applicator. At this time a little Vaseline
may also be massaged in.
When the five-day rest period has elapsed, begin again with
the Atomidine for another five days. During the following period
do another crude oil treatment. For the following two weeks
leave off the crude oil and Atomidine entirely. Then do another
complete series. Continue repeating the entire cycle.
Consistently eat foods that naturally contain iodine, such as
kelp salt or sea salt and plenty of seafood. Avoid an excess
of sweets. The yolk of the egg may be eaten, but not the white.
Scalp Massage
It should be noted that this reading calls for a vigorous scalp
massage. However, use of an electric vibrator is not essential
if a thorough rub with the fingers can be given.
The administration of iodine through both diet and Atomidine
dosage was suggested apparently to correct a deficiency in the
system. Atomidine dosage was recommended in approximately a
third of the readings for people with falling hair.
Formula 636
The tonic formula given in reading 636-1 might in some cases
be substituted for the Atomidine, as its use was originally
recommended in conjunction with crude oil treatments. This formula,
which when taken according to directions supplies one drop of
Atomidine a day, was given as a glandular tonic to restore natural
color to gray hair. Other valuable ingredients include liver
extract a substance very high in the B-complex vitamins and
the type of supplement most frequently recommended in the readings.
Wild ginseng is a Native American herb with rejuvenating properties,
and blacksnake root and lactated pepsin are digestive aids given
to facilitate the metabolic effect of the other formula ingredients.
More Information On Crude Oil Treatments
Although the application of crude oil for the scalp was consistently
recommended for people with falling hair, the details of these
treatments varied widely, depending on the needs of the individual
involved. This is evident in the two examples that follow: Reading
816-1, which attributed the excessive hair loss to insufficient
circulation and glandular imbalances, recommended crude oil
application and osteopathic adjustments to prevent further loss
of hair. In this case the crude oil was to be massaged into
the scalp once a month, followed by a rinsing with 20% grain
alcohol to make the tar and oil easy to wash out of the hair.
This was occasionally to be followed by application of a small
quantity of Vaseline.
The 636-1 reading suggested that a crude oil treatment be given
two or three times a month, again followed by the 20% grain
alcohol and Vaseline. It was claimed that this treatment would
cause hair to grow in cases except where the follicles had been
destroyed, and would prevent four-fifths of all balding problems.
This reading also suggested a diet high in iodine that would
stimulate the thyroid gland. Seafood was recommended two or
three times weekly, fried and greasy foods were to be avoided
and the skins of white potatoes (but not the pulp was to be
eaten.
The diversity of the readings is such that crude oil application
may be followed by a choice of several other substances. They
include: 20% grain alcohol, weaker alcohol solutions, olive
oil shampoo, pine tar shampoo, pine tar soap (shampoo may be
substituted), Vaseline, and Listerine. Many readings, which
mentioned alcohol application, emphasized that only pure grain
alcohol be used as opposed to the denatured variety, which causes
excessive dryness. In general best results will probably be
obtained through experimenting with treatment procedures to
find out which works best.
It is important to use only pure, unrefined crude oil on the
hair and scalp. This oil is formed from the gradual decaying
of deposits of organic matter buried deep in the earth’s
crust. Crude oil refers to its raw form as it is extracted from
the earth and before it undergoes refinement. Numerous products
are derived from this oil, including gasoline, kerosene, paraffin,
and motor oil, though none should ever be considered as substitutes.
The natural occurrence of crude oil in a variety of thicknesses
and shades of color can sometimes generate confusion. Any of
these varieties are usable, presumably with equal effectiveness.
Some users prefer the honey-colored Pennsylvania grade crude
oil as it has the mildest odor and is easiest to wash out of
the hair. This variety is paraffin-based. The darker variety,
which is asphalt based, is somewhat more difficult to use.
If desired, crude oil treatments may be performed more often
than the readings quoted suggest. Some individuals have reported
good results using it as often as several times weekly. The
big production of a full crude oil treatment might be avoided
by simply rubbing small amounts into the scalp every few days
Occasionally, a first-time user of crude oil will become alarmed
at the quantities of hair lost during treatment. This is both
a normal and a temporary initial reaction due to the loss of
loose hair, which is always followed by a period during which
little or-no hair loss occurs. A preventive treatment cycle
might thus all for a crude oil massage whenever hair loss begins
to occur in excessive amounts.
Hair growth is such a gradual phenomenon that it is easy to
become discouraged after following Cayce’s treatment suggestions
for a month or two with no dramatic results. Crude oil is no
miracle cure, however, and it should be given an initial trial
of at least several months, since it could take as long for
the hair to be restored as it did to be lost in the first place.
The Edgar Cayce readings are a valuable source of many additional
comments regarding crude oil and the care of the hair and scalp
in general. For more information, consult the Hair: Baldness

Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), at P.O. Box 595, Virginia

| CRUDE OIL RESEARCH |
Some early research data on crude oil has
been tabulated, and more studies are under way. Following is
a report of results to date:
A SUMMARY OF THE RESULTS REPORTED BY 45 USERS OF
EDGAR CAYCE’S TREATMENT FOR FALUNG HAIR
Background: In June of 1972, C. Wilford Grover, Ph.D., an independent
researcher undertook a research survey to determine the degree
of success experienced users of Edgar Cayce’s crude oil
treatment for baldness, using names and addresses of all recent
purchasers of crude oil supplied by the Heritage Store. Forty-five
persons responded to the survey.
Results
1. Four percent of users reported complete hair restoration,
7% reported
considerable hair restoration,
18% reported moderate restoration, while 42%
reported little restoration and 29% none.
2. Of the 29% who reported no restoration, 38% reported that
use of the crude oil
treatment prevented
further loss of hair.
3. 60% of the persons who reported considerable or complete
restoration had been
using the crude
oil treatment for more than 12 months, while 84% of those who
reported considerable or complete restoration
had been using the crude oil
treatment
for more than 12 months, while 84% of those who reported little
or no
restoration had used the crude
oil for less than 12 months.
4 Of the 10 persons who reported using the crude oil treatment
for more than 12
months, 30% reported considerable
or complete restoration and no one in this
group reported no restoration at all.
5. 4 out of 5 (80%) of the persons who reported considerable
or complete restoration
had followed
the complete treatment as outlined by Cayce, including the use
of
Atomidine internally to stimulate
the thyroid gland.
Conclusions
While the sample population for this analysis was unfortunately
rather small, the following conclusions might tentatively be
drawn:
1. The use of the crude oil treatment will in most cases prevent
further loss of hair as it
did in 840/a
of persons in this sample.
2. For those willing to follow the complete treatment outlined
in the readings for
baldness for at least
12 months, the probability of considerable or complete hair
restoration will be greatly increased.
SOME ADDITIONAL NOTES
Since 1972, the three individuals who reported to us that crude
oil failed to stop their hair loss were all taking Vitamin C
at the time in addition to Atomidine dosage. This may be more
than coincidental as the readings generally advised against
combining different types of internal dosages on the same days.
In any case, in order to give Cayce’s remedies a fair
trial, they should be used alone and not in combination with
other treatments.
AN ENCOURAGING REPORT
"I have enclosed a sketch I drew myself to indicate progress
over a two year period. I started on this program January 1,
1972, with just petroleum jelly. Using the crude oil and Atomidine
has speeded up hair growth considerably. My sideburns have widened,
to my amazement, and a peak has grown out toward the eyebrow.
As you can see the hair is growing in from the bottom up and
closing in morn each side on the top. I certainly hope it continues
to fill in. There is hair over the entire top of the head and
it’s thin but it’s there and it wasn’t there
before.
"The day that this project is completed
(when hair fills in on top) I’m going to contact A.R.E.
and find out if they would like me to write a booklet on Edgar
Cayce’s formula results for growing hair. Right now I
can vouch for it wholeheartedly, but people want proof. I have
photos to use."
"My boss was highly skeptical
when I first started this. Now he wants a copy of the formula
in case he loses his hair. He keeps saying, "UNBELIEVABLE!"
I told him ‘if someday you pass my spot here and you see
a gorilla sitting on my chair, don’t panic - it’ll
be me." "I think that Atomidine will grow hair on
the floor if you happen to spill some of it. Charles Bradshaw

| Baldness - Healing Your Body
by William A. McGarey, M.D. |
Baldness in the human family is often a distressing
problem that leads one sometimes to extreme solutions. A recent
subspecialty that has grown out of modern medicine’s attempt
to cure baldness is that of doing hair implants in the scalp.
Those familiar with the Cayce material, however, have tried
- often with significant success - the suggestions Edgar made
to correct baldness. When I checked at the A.R.E. Library several
years ago on which circulating files were most often borrowed,
I found that the Baldness File was most in demand.
Why would one wish to restore hair to a balding scalp? Doesn’t
baldness indicate one type of wisdom? The image of a man with
a white beard and a balding scalp has been treasured over the
centuries as the symbol of the wise man. On the other hand,
hair has been called by poets and lovers the crowning glory.
Hair in a sense is the symbol of thoughts generated in the mind
of the individual. Thus hair is a great thing to cultivate.
Despite conflicting opinions regarding hair or its absence on
the scalp, the great majority today, both male and female, would
prefer a frill head of hair. To gain that goal when one is in
need, however, requires patience, persistence, and consistency
- an admonition frequently given in the Cayce readings dealing
with healing of the body. So, if you are seeking relief for
your balding head, recall that simple advice and do not underestimate
its importance. Many individuals during the days when Edgar
was still with us failed to recognize how healing comes about
and, with impatience, failed to reach the endpoint of the healing
process, whether it be for baldness or cancer of the lung.
A woman beautician who asked how to treat baldness got this
answer in reading 636-1: "There has never been a better
than the crude oil treatment. This would be given about two
or three times each month, followed with a cleansing with a
20 percent solution of grain alcohol and then massaging white
Vaseline into the scalp in such a manner as to leave the whole
surface not too greasy, but as sufficient into the scalp to
produce the better application of whatever may be used. But
this will grow hair on most bald heads, unless, as we have indicated
it is of the germ nature that has destroyed the bulbs that grow
hair. Be especially efficient with such a diet as outlined;
and occasionally specific gland treatment. So, when there is
the necessity, make association with a physician that will give
a gland treatment such as thyroid, adrenal and the like, or
as will be found in the form of iodine, adrenaline, thyroid
extract or liver extract.
Diet
The reading suggested this diet: at least two or three meals
a week should consist of seafoods; no fried or very greasy diet
at all, or no fried meats at all; skins of Irish potatoes rather
than the pulp. Such a diet together with an application to the
scalp or to the skin will be much more efficacious in the growth
of hair.
Reading 816-1 offers more insight on the cause of baldness.
The lack of the flow of circulation, where much of that has
been destroyed from which the activities of the glands in the
thyroids and the adrenals make for the stimulation to these
activities. But with the corrections made [Osteopathically],
and with the use of such a stimulating to the scalp as crude
oil with the white Vaseline and alcohol (that we have indicated
through these sources), there will be stimulated a growth that
will not only improve the condition but prevent further inroads
of this lack of circulation in the scalp. Such a scalp treatment
would be given in this manner.
Scalp Treatment
About once each month have a crude oil shampoo, preferably done
by self-it is messy, but it is necessary for the stimulation
from the pure crude oil. Then cleanse same with the 20 percent
grain alcohol - not wood alcohol, but grain alcohol - to remove
the tar, the oil, and such influences, although some of the
oil will have stuck in sufficient to stimulate the circulation
to the growth of the roots of the hair itself. Then use occasionally
a little white Vaseline. The massage is the more important for
it, you see.
Q. How long should the crude oil stay on [the head] before cleansing
with the alcohol
solution?
A. This depends, of course, upon the circumstances. For half
to three quarters of an
hour, if
possible.
In my front yard, I have a pine tree that was injured when we
moved it from the nursery to plant it at home. The central trunk
was broken off just about two feet from the ground (The tree
was only about three feet tall when purchased). Over the four
years since we started watching its growth, one of the limbs
started bending slightly, then more and more, toward the center
of the tree. Then it started making little branches further
down from its growing tip. Now, the tip has moved into the center,
the bending is gradually correcting itself, and the tree will
soon start its upward growth.
If one simply looks at how this little pine tree, given the
patience and nurture needed, takes what it has in hand and corrects
an injury, following the energy pattern that is its heritage,
we have a real life lesson. Each of us has an energy pattern
that Cayce indicates is our true body. It has in it the essence
of perfection, needing only to be nourished and cared for, and
the healing will come about. The Vaseline is nourishing, isn’t
it? And the crude oil, and the iodine or Atomidine and the grain
alcohol. And the massage. What is being sought is a healing,
isn’t it? And, in my book, that’s where soul growth
comes about!

Guide, page 39, or the circulating file on baldness. Or study
the readings themselves. You will go through an adventure in
consciousness.
FORMULA 636
This unique metabolic and glandular tonic is the only formula
of its kind in the Edgar Cayce readings. Although it was originally
recommended to restore natural color to gray hair, it is more
often used for the rejuvenating, balancing and energizing effect
it is apt to have on the entire system. It has also sometimes
been found to improve hair quality and growth, and since the
hair and nails are built from similar proteins, to harden soft
nails in the process.
Formula 636 is an unusual combination of herbs and other substances
loaded with essential vitamins and minerals:
Lactated pepsin is an often recommended digestive aid, used
here to increase the assimilation of nutrients vital to the
health of hair and complexion.
Black Snake Root is a metabolic stimulant traditionally used
as "female toner" which Cayce found would stimulate
the capillary circulation.
Ginseng, a venerated herb with a history of usage by many ancient
cultures, is widely regarded as a restorer and prolonger of
youth, vitality and virility. Cayce’s preference for wild
ginseng was never explained; presumably it is more effective.
The inclusion of Atomidine makes Formula 636 a glandular tonic.
This unique iodine preparation was regarded as less toxic and
more easily assimilated than that found in kelp and other nutritional
supplements. Since iodine was the most often recommended mineral
in the readings, prescribed for arthritis, baldness, poison
ivy and much more, Atomidine supplementation would presumably
be widely beneficial. Taken according to directions, this tonic
supplies approximately one drop of Atomidine a day, an amount,
which would probably help many individuals to maintain glandular
balance.
A final ingredient, Extract of Liver, is a nutrient-rich preparation,
which is especially high in B complex vitamins. Grain alcohol
is a natural preservative, and the simple syrup base makes the
formula quite palatable.
NOTE: If
you are taking Formula 636 specifically to restore natural color
to gray hair, we suggest that you also apply Crudoleum externally
to simulate the scalp circulation. The words "good scalp
treatment" in the reading itself (see reverse side of page)
are a direct reference to the crude oil treatments.
CAUTION: Because of its high iodine content,
Formula 636 should not be used at the same time as other sources
of iodine, including Atomidine, kelp and multi-mineral supplements.
Too much iodine can over-stimulate the thyroid gland, resulting
in nervousness and restlessness. This formula should not be
used by anyone with a history of heart problems, as glandular
stimulation will also affect the heart. Although the readings
did not warn against the ingestion of alcoholic beverages while
Formula 636 is being taken, we do not recommend this combination.
Q-4: Please give me a formula for a medicine to be taken internally
to restore natural
color to hair.
A-4: This would necessarily be put up under the direction of
a pharmacist, unless it
was formed into an organization for the manufacture of same;
which would be a
combination in these proportions, whether making two ounces
or four hundred
gallons:
To 4 ounces of Simple Syrup, add:
Lactated Pepsin 1 ounce,
Black Snake Root Extract 1/4 ounce,
Essence of Wild Ginseng 1/4 ounce,
Atomidine 40 minims,
Extract of Liver (preserved in alcohol, of course,
Or Armour’s Liver Extract) 1/2 ounce,
Grain Alcohol 1⁄4 ounce.
The dosage of this would be half a teaspoonful three times each
day, just after meals, for periods of ten days with five-day
rest periods. This taken in such a manner over a period of several
months will be effective to glands, to those secretions that
will not only make a digestion that will be much improved in
health but -- with any good scalp treatment, especially such
as we have indicated -- it’ll turn graying hairs back
to normal; or where it has been streaked even by various forms
of dyes, its GROWTH will come normal.
To turn again to why such a formula as given would affect the
body-functioning's, as to change the outward activity of the
functioning of glands in a body:
The Syrup, surely, is the carrier.

Crudoleum Products for Healthy Hair
Crudoleum is pure, unrefined, undiluted Pennsylvania grade crude
oil, recommended by the Edgar Cayce readings in small amounts
to condition the hair and stimulate circulation of the scalp.
Used on a regular basis, it helps prevent itching and brings
out the natural luster and body of a healthy head of hair. Rinsing
with a grain alcohol solution and then a gentle shampoo typically
follows Crudoleum application.
Crudoleum Hair
Rinse
Crudoleum Hair Rinse a 20% solution of pure grain alcohol and
distilled water, denatured with natural pine oil. Following
Crudoleum application it is rubbed into the hair and scalp to
"cut" the oil, making it much easier to wash out of
the hair. We then recommend using Olive Oil Shampoo, a mild
cleanser regarded by Cayce as especially beneficial to both
hair and scalp.
Crudoleum Cream, a
new product, is an innovative combination of Crudoleum and white
petrolatum, which was sometimes recommended for scalp massage
as well. Crudoleum Hair Rinse for Shampooing to effectively
remove it from the hair must follow application of this ylang
scented product.
Crudoleum Shampoo and Crudoleum
Conditioner were created to harness the benefits of
crude oil in a comprehensive hair care program. Both products
contain crude oil and other natural ingredients beneficial to
hair and scalp. For best results, we suggest alternating use
of these products with the full Crudoleum treatment outlined
below.
Edgar Cayce’s Crudoleum Instructions
1. Rub a small amount of Crudoleum (one or two capfuls) vigorously
into scalp, using
fingers or an electric
vibrator. Allow oil to remain for at least 30 minutes, massaging
the scalp for as much of this time as possible.
Crudoleum (ream maybe substituted
here.
2. Rub one or two capfuls Crudoleum Rinse thoroughly into scalp,
increasing this
amount if needed for
longer hair. This is an essential step in removing Crudoleum
residue.
3. Wash hair as usual with Olive Oil Shampoo (or Pine Jar Shampoo
or Crudoleum
Shampoo). Follow with Crudoleum
conditioner if desired.
4. Repeat this application once a week or on a schedule of your
choice. This routine
may be alternated
with use of Crudoleum Shampoo and/or Conditioner.
PINE
TAR SHAMPOO AND SOAP
Pine tar soap was recommended for cleansing the hair and scalp
in about seven readings. In every case it was the soap that
was recommended not the shampoo-although in all of these cases
the soap was to be used on the scalp as a shampoo. It is possible
that only the soap existed in Cayce’s day, and that the
shampoo did not appear on the market until later.
Because of the antiseptic nature of the pine oil in pine tar
soap, its use was especially indicated for scalp treatments,
in conjunction with such items as white Vaseline, Olive Oil
Shampoo, crude oil and diluted grain alcohol. Reading 26 1-2,
the one most commonly followed for dandruff, called for application
of diluted grain alcohol mixed with a small amount of pine oil,
followed by white Vaseline and a thorough cleansing of the head
with pine tar soap.
Following are some typical
hair care programs from the readings.
To keep it [the hair] nice and smooth. Take care of it more
often with either Drene Hair Tonic or olive oil hair tonic followed
with the shampooing with crude oil and tar soap. These, while
making irritation at first will maintain the better conditions
for the body (5261-1).
For the scalp [dryness] and for the hair, we find it would be
well to have a thorough massage or shampoo with pure tar soap
- at least once a week, and then to massage a little white Vaseline
into the scalp after such a shampoo. This will materially aid
the hair and produce a better condition there (633-12).
Our Tannenbaum Pine Tar Shampoo is a gentle germicidal shampoo
that is especially good for dandruff, itchy scalp and oily hair.
The antiseptic properties of pure pine tar make this product
a natural for scalp treatment. For more information consult

A Message From The Heritage Store
This information about Heritage Store Products if for you: the
health practitioner, the health educator, and the consumer,
and is especially created to respond to the many inquiries we
have received over the years for more in-depth information concerning
the Cayce formulas.
When Edgar Cayce, widely considered the most talented twentieth-century
American psychic and the father of Holistic Heath died in 1945,
he left behind a legacy of nearly 14,000 clairvoyant readings,
easily the largest and best-documented body of paranormal data
ever received from one person. Of these reading, more that 60
percent concerned health and healing. In 1966, The Heritage
Store began researching these health reading and subsequently
developed a full line of the products and formulas recommended
most often. Today, they are sold everywhere, and utilized by
a growing number of physicians and health practitioners around
the world.
Since its inception, the Cayce philosophy has been in the forefront
of the Holistic Health movement, which "Encourages people
to take responsibility for their own health and well-being".
We are proud to contribute to this growing holistic awareness
by supplying you with a very special array of products that
have helped millions of people worldwide. As we move into the
30th year of business, we are pleased to report that the Cayce
philosophy of health and the hold of health-enhancing formulas
are gaining in popularity.
Hair Care
Is your crowning glory bouncy and thick, or a lackluster heap?
Do you suffer from excessive hair loss or dandruff? The Cayce
medical readings contained a variety of natural, environmentally
safe hair care solutions that can help your hair become thick
and beautiful once again.
One of the most popular was crude oil, now available through
The Heritage Store as Crudoleum Hair Treatment. The single most
frequently suggested type of external treatment suggested in
30 readings, crude oil massaged-often with an electric vibrator
into the scalp was a popular treatment for hair and scalp problems,
particularly excessive hair loss and baldness. It stimulates
scalp circulation-one of the primary causes of hair loss and
leaves hair healthy and lustrous. According to a survey of 45
users, Crudoleum prevented further hair loss in 84% of participants
and in 71% it brought about some degree of hair restoration.
Eleven percent of the individuals experienced "considerable"
to complete restoration of hair.
As you may know, oil is formed from the gradual decaying of
deposits of organic matter buried deep in the earth’s
crust. Crude oil is simply the raw form, after it is extracted
from the earth and before it undergoes refinement into a host
of products including gasoline, kerosene, paraffin and motor
oil.
In response to a request for a "sure" formula for
baldness, Cayce said: "There has never been a better formula
than the crude oil treatment. This would be given about two
or three times each month, followed with a cleansing with a
twenty percent solution of grain alcohol and then massaging
white Vaseline into the scalp in such a manner as to leave the
whole surface of the scalp not too greasy. But this will grow
hair on most bald heads, unless - as we have indicated - it
is of the germ nature that has destroyed the bulbs [roots] that
grow hair". [Reading 636-1]
There has never been a better formula for baldness than the
crude oil treatment." Edgar Cayce Reading 636-1In response
to another gentleman’s request for help with baldness,
Cayce attributed his falling hair to insufficient circulation,
suggesting that "once each month have a crude oil shampoo,
preferably done by self - it is messy but it is necessary for
the stimulation from the pure crude oil. Then cleanse same with
the twenty percent grain alcohol to remove the tat; the oil,
and such influences, although some of the oil will have stuck
in sufficient to stimulate the circulation to the growth of
the roots of the hair itself:’’ [Reading 816 -1]
Although the readings varied concerning how often crude oil
should be applied, some individuals have reported excellent
results using it on a weekly basis, while others use it once
or twice monthly. Still others simply rub small amounts into
the scalp every few days.
Following the treatment, Cayce suggested rinsing with a weak
grain alcohol solution—Crudoleum Rinse to remove excess
oil and further increase circulation. Most people find this
an essential step in helping to remove Crudoleum from the hair
after treatment, but it is also an effective dandruff treatment.
In fact, in Reading 261 -2, Cayce said this about dandruff:
"If this will he used, this may entirely cure same; to
water-aqua pura, that is preferably of pure water to four ounces
of same add twenty minims of 85 percent alcohol, with oil of
pine, two drops, this should he rubbed thoroughly into the scalp,
so that there is the proper reaction from same. Then, thoroughly
into the scalp, rub a small quantity of white Vaseline. Then
wash the head thoroughly with that of
Tar soap. Do this once each week. It [dandruff] will disappear"
What’s more, The Heritage Store has recently created a
product that offers the popular, growth promoting properties
of the crude oil, in a more convenient form. For those in search
of a short cut,
Crudoleum Shampoo contains gentle sudsing agents, olive oil
and coconut oil soap, as well as a small amount of crude oil.
Although the results may take longer, many of our customers
report excellent results with regular use. Crudoleum Hair Conditioner
containing castor oil, olive oil, aloe vera, jojoba, and lanolin
can be used after shampooing with Crudoleum Shampoo.
PRODUCT REPORTS
I have enclosed a sketch I drew myself to indicate progress
over a two-year period. I started on this program January 1,
1972, with just petroleum jelly. Using the crude oil (and Atomidine)
has speeded up hair growth considerably. My sideburns have widened
and a peak has grown out toward the eyebrow. As you can see
the hair is also growing [on my head from the bottom up and
closing in from each side on the top. There is now hair over
the entire top of the head and it’s thin but it’s
there. And it wasn’t there before." C. B., New
York
"I have two older brothers and one who is nine years younger
than me. All of them, as well as my father, have had hair and
scalp problems, including itchy, scaly scalp and hair loss.
For example, my younger brother has lost about one-third of
his hair I have been using Crudoleum for over ten years, and
it has maintained a full head of hair and a healthy scalp. In
addition, the treatment has prevented the gray hair that all
my brothers have. Thanks to Crudoleum, my hair is the envy of
my brothers. I use it at least once per month." C.M.,
Virginia Beach, Virginia
I found a "victim" who has had a shiny baldpate for
seventeen years and had been hunting remedies for loss of his
hair. When I received the crude oil, I began the treatment.
Would you believe that after the first treatment and I didn’t
see him until five days later that he had the beginning of 'fuzz'
right through the center of his head. He has now had a total
of seven treatments and his head looks like a new lawn coming
in. I am using the same treatment on my own hair since my thick
hair had thinned after surgery and the doe says that there is
nothing that could be done about it. Hah!" An Indiana
Woman
WASH AWAY GRAY WITH FORMULA 636
Yet another product recommended in the readings for rest wring
color was Formula 636. In addition, it has been found to improve
hair quality and enhance growth, and rejuvenate the entire system.
The Formula, a combination of herbs and substances high in essential
vitamins and minerals includes Atomidine, liver extract, ginseng,
lactated pepsin and Black Snake Root extract.
Atomidine
According to Cayce, the inclusion of Atomidine makes the formula
an excellent glandular tonic. Atomidine is ‘‘atomic
iodine," a form of iodine claimed by Cayce to be less toxic
to the body than so me other forms o f the necessary trace mineral
- The most frequently prescribed mineral in the readings, Atomidine
was recommended for a variety (If conditions including arthritis,
baldness, and poison ivy. Liver extract is particularly rich
in B-complex vitamins. Ginseng is a native American herb that,
according to the readings, rejuvenates the body. In Case 636-1,
Cayce
suggested that the formula could be used as an activative force
to beautifying of that which is to man his crown of strength
and to a host of satisfied misers report that the product not
only enhances hair growth, but acts as a balancing and energizing
tonic for the entire system.
"The 636 works. My gray hair has almost gone back to normal
after 11/2 bottles." A California Man
"I thought I would mention that since using Formula 636,
I have lost 20 pounds, and don’t have the craving I used
to have for food." A New York Man
‘‘I have recently ordered a bottle of Formula 636.
It is such a wonderful product that I wish to keep one bottle
ahead so I won’t run out. Anyone with hypothyroid trouble
like I have will know what I’m talking about. After only
Five weeks of taking it, my hair is getting as dark as it was
when I was in my teens; people are accusing me of dyeing my
hair, but believe me, I’m not. I’ve lost all my
gray hair. It’s growing in thick again, not to mention
my eyebrows and eyelashes growing in thick again."
"After only five weeks of taking Formula 636 my hair is
getting as dark as it was when I was in my teens, people are
accusing me of dying my hair, but believe me, I’m not.
I’ve lost
all my gray hair. It’s growing in thick again, not to
mention my eyebrows and eyelashes!
A Washington Woman
In case 636-1, Cayce suggested that the formula could be used
as "an activative force to beautifying of that which is
to man his crown of strength and to a woman her head of beauty,
for to a man hair on the head in several readings in conjunction
with crude oil, is as strength to woman is as beauty.
OLIVE OIL SHAMPOO
Olive Oil Shampoo, the most frequently recommended shampoo in
the readings, is a pure Castile shampoo gentle enough for babies
and excellent for all hair types, but especially hair that is
dry or damaged. In many of the readings, Cayce suggested that
it was particularly beneficial to) the scalp: ‘‘For
this particular body, use Olive Oil Shampoo, for there is needed
the oil/or the scalp and the opening of the pores of the same.
[3379- 1] In another reading Cayce said: Plain Castile is the
best to be used (Castile shampoo, see, will add a luster [658-2].
In addition, it was also advised in several readings in conjunction
white crude oil, white Vaseline and 20% grain alcohol for treatment
and prevention baldness: ‘‘As for this particular
condition, it arises from a poor circulation. Once a week we
would wash the hair with a very pure soap (preferable the purest,
which is Castile) Then massage into the scalp very small quantities
of the white Vase line, each time after the shampoo. The next
day clarify same with a twenty percent solution alcohol: grain
alcohol, not wood or denatured. These used, as we find, will
make for the better conditions, and will tend to make for the
natural curl, the natural texture and strength of the hair itself"
[852-13]
We have received many letters from customers who Find Olive
Oil Shampoo to be among the most beautifying shampoos available
today. Here are just a few: "As a professional in the hair
care business, I have been exposed to a lot of hair care products.
I find your Olive Oil Shampoo to be better than anything else
on the market. My hair and the hair of everyone I know who has
used it has more body, more luster, more bounce, and is more
manageable than before. It is better than chemical shampoos
that tend to cause scalp problems after awhile, and I prefer
it to any shampoo made by any other company. R. M. Jackson,
Missouri.
"Really Find the Olive Oil Shampoo is excellent. I have
graying hairs and they are usually hard to control but this
shampoo really makes them very manageable. My hair is very thick
but this shampoo makes it thicker." A Wisconsin Woman
Remember many of the chemical ingredients contained in today’s
hair-care products can actually damage hair. By making some
simple changes in your hair care routine and utilizing natural,
health promoting substances, you can transform limp locks into
lush and shiny tresses.
