BF&C (Bones, Flesh & Cartilage)
Usage
Dosage
Ingredients
Testimonials

Usage

1. The bone, flesh, and cartilage combination, does wonders #
in restoring flesh and internal healing of bones and cartilage.

It can be taken in any of its forms, capsules, syrup, tea#
(internally and externally as a fomentation) and topically in a #
salve. All will do the job. The choice of how you take it #
depends on what the problem is.

2. This formula has done miraculous things with broken #
backs, legs, hips, etc. This formula has been used on curvature #
of the spine, polio, multiple sclerosis, and muscular dystrophy, #
stroke and arthritis of the bone. This formula is used #
externally as well as orally and has brought tremendously fast #
results.

This formula is a "power house" and has been used on (and#
restored to health) cancer of the spine, arthritis and polio, #
and has helped rebuild torn cartilage and sinews, fractures, etc.#
etc.

Dosage

1. BF&C Salve is an ointment using an olive oil and beeswax #
base.

2. BF&C Capsules or tea may also be taken daily: either two #
or three capsules three times daily or three cups of the tea.

3. BF&C Fomentation: Soak the combined teas in distilled #
water (at the rate of one ounce of combined herbs to a pint of #
distilled water), then soaking four to six hours, simmer thirty #
minutes, strain and then simmer the liquid down to 1/2 its volume#
and add 1/4 vegetable glycerine (if desired). Example: One #
gallon of tea simmered (not boiled) down to two quarts and add #
one pint of glycerine.

Soak flannel, cotton, or any white material other than #
synthetics--never use synthetics. Wrap the fomentation (soaked #
cloth) around the malfunctioning area and cover with plastic to #
keep it from drying out. Leave on all night six nights a week, #
week after week, until relief appears.

4. BF&C Fomentation: Another method. To make and use a #
fomentation: This is applying herbs to convey heat, moisture, and#
medicinal aid in order to relieve pain, to reduce inflammation, #
and to relax affected areas. Soak a Turkish towel or gauze or #
similar material in hot tea, lightly wring (just enough that the #
liquid will not run off the body), and place as hot as possible #
without causing blistering. Generally keep the fomentation moist#
and warm by placing plastics, oilcloth, etc., over fomentation. #
Dosage: Wet enough that the moisture will not run off the body, #
cover entire malfunction area, keep damp and change periodically.#


5. Tea for Severe Cases: Drink 1/4 Cup of finished #
concentrated tea with 3/4 cup of distilled water three times in a#
day.

6. Stiff Neck: The following explanation of our "bone, #
flesh, and cartilage" formula is the most complete program for #
this condition of a stiff neck. The fomentation as it penetrates#
into the area will relax the muscles and feed the nerves so the #
bone structure (vertebra) will adjust itself. At the same time #
it will build up the blood circulation to carry off waste #
materials as well as feed the painful area with herbal food to #
put it into a healthy state of self healing. Soak flannel, #
cotton, or any white material other than synthetics--never use #
synthetics. Wrap the fomentation (soaked cloth) around the #
malfunctioning area and cover with plastic to keep it from drying#
out. Leave on all night six nights a week, week after week, #
until relief appears.

Ingredients

BF&C contains oak bark, marshmallow root, mullein herb, #
wormwood, lobelia, skullcap, comfrey root, walnut bark (or #
leaves) and gravel root.

Testimonials

1. Movement in Body after 15 Years Immobility: While sitting#
in his family restaurant that used to be located in the #
University Mall, across the hall came the most grotesquely-built #
wheelchair the Doctor had ever seen; it was all out of shape, #
having been built for someone deformed. And sitting in the chair#
was one of the most deformed people he had seen. The lady's #
arms and legs and back were twisted out of shape. She was being #
pushed by a young lady, who took her right up to Dr. Christopher.

"I am surprised to see you, Dr. Christopher," the lady in#
the chair said, "I just had to stop and thank you; you have done#
so much for me."

He began to wonder what the thank-you could be, because #
she was terribly malformed.

She said that she had been like a vegetable for nearly #
fifteen years, having to be fed and given liquid to drink. She #
couldn't even raise a hand or leg. She started on the Incurables#
program, with some people helping her, and they put the B.F.&C. #
fomentation down her crooked back and over other parts of her #
body--and she said, "Just look at me now."

She was moving her hand, and she raised it off the #
wheelchair a little bit. She did the same with the other hand. #
She could turn her head and move her shoulders. She could even #
move her back a little, although it had not moved for those #
fifteen years previous. Grateful for her new life, she felt that#
she would live to get up out of that wheelchair and walk. She #
was so grateful for the formula. And Dr. Christopher said it #
would be a wonderful day when this young lady could walk and be #
on her own after fifteen years.

2. Scabs All Over Body: Here is an unusual case where Dr. #
Christopher used the B F & C formula on a young girl. He was #
lecturing in the Safford region of Arizona, and a man, who #
sponsored the lectures there, wished something could be done for #
his daughter, a teenager. They hated to sit down at the table #
with her, because she always scratched and picked at her head, #
digging the scabs out. The man brought her to the baths where #
the lecture series was located so Dr. Christopher could take a #
look at her.

The girl had red hair, but there wasn't much of it. You #
could see her scalp, covered with sores which could not be #
cleared up. Dermatologists and other specialists could do #
nothing to stop the irritation on her head.

Dr. Christopher had her use the B F & C combination as a #
fomentation on her head. She soaked a cotton stocking #
cap--white, he emphasized, as herb combinations should never #
react with dye--with the concentrated B F & C formula tea, #
wearing this at night with a bathing cap over it. This would be #
left on all night, six nights a week.

After three months, Dr. Christopher lectured in the area #
again, and the girl came to show him that the scabs were all #
gone. Within the first week the itching stopped, and the sores #
healed up. But the hair that had been so thin was thickening, #
and by the time Dr. Christopher came back, she had a good head of#
hair, beautiful red and full as it had been years before.

3. Grandmother's Face Hits Cement: "The main reason for #
writing to you was to tell you what happened to my husband's 92 #
year-old grandmother who was visiting with us late July. While #
she was sweeping our porch off, her shoe loosened and she was #
climbing a short flight of cement stairs. She tripped and fell #
flat on her face. Her daughter, my mother-in-law, heard her face#
hit the cement, very loud crack. Grandma was taken care of--for#
the first aid part--by my husband (who teaches first aid and #
advanced courses for the Red Cross) and she rested. Grandma did #
not want any ice of the face for fear of catching a cold, so only#
cool towels could be used. She rested and claimed she was #
feeling fine -- but oh, did she look terrible.

Almost immediately her face turned purple. She is a spry#
lady and she went on being her chipper self, even after the #
accident. The rest of the family had the hard time -- looking at#
grandma and feeling so bad for her. THEN -- tada -- my shipment#
from the Herb Shop came with the BF&C syrup, the very next day. #
I convinced my mother-in-law to try some syrup on grandma's face#
-- to (hopefully) take the bruise away. Grandma had scraped her#
face on her nose and forehead, and the syrup felt immediately #
good, so the rest of her face was covered with it. The syrup is #
so simple to use, too.

The day the shipment came, grandma went to the doctor to #
make sure nothing had broken or was damaged that was not obvious #
to us. He assured her that everything was fine, but that the #
purple would change to green, yellow -- the whole schmeer! Also,#
her face would be swollen upon rising in the morning, but not to#
worry. Four days after the beginning application (2-3 times a #
day) her face was almost completely back to normal color. There #
had been no swelling in the morning, as the doctor predicted #
either. By the fourth day she was with her daughter in Hawaii #
for a visit and she called to tell me that her mother was feeling#
fine -- and looking back to normal."

4. Physical Injuries: Any physical injury to the kidneys, #
bladder, etc., can be remedied by the use of the BF&C fomentation#
to the outside of the body.
