ITCHY SCRATCHY

Itch itch scratch scratch. Mosquito bites? Hives? need a bath?? NO. .....Eczema. Don't scratch it, but it is so itchy.

Four common eczemas:

1. Atopic Eczema - hereditary
2. Seborrhoeic dermatitis - cradle cap, affects scalp and eyebrows
3. Contact dermatitis - allergic reaction, and irritant (eg affected by a chemical that you come into contact with)
4. Xerotic Eczema - dry skin that becomes so bad it turns into eczema

What do you do? See a health practitioner to find out which one you have.

Moisturising is VERY important. Don't use soap. Get out in the sun (but not too much), watch what you eat (for Atopic) coffee, dairy products, wheat, eggs could bring on eczema. Swimming in the ocean may help.


I recommend our Self Heal Tanekaha Cream with golden seal to keep the skin moisturized.

Welcome to Kiwiherb...

I've now included Kiwiherb products on the Pure CureNZ website (www.purecurenz.com). They specialize in NZ plant remedies. They also use other plants too, for example echinacea and ginko.

Kiwiherb products that are Biogrow certified organic:

Echinature - Echinacea with active Manuka honey
Herbal Throat Formula
Gerbal Throat Spray
Herbal Chest Syrup
WinterGuard
Children's Echinature
Kid's Calm
Ginger & Kawakawa Tonic
Liver Cleanse
Valerian Root Extract
Calendula Ointment
Comfrey Ointment

Over the next few weeks I'll be adding their full range to PureCureNZ.

I'm also selling the Self Heal range on Trade Me (New Zealand auction site). The popular products there are Self Heal Bush Relaxant and Self Heal Bush Bitters. They each comprise around 8 different NZ healing plants. Bush Relaxant has been homeopathically prepared (calms, relaxes, energises), while Bush Bitters is a herbal formula (Helps with PMT, depression, coughs, asthma).

Actually I was asked quite a few questions on one of my Trade Me listings and realised that I had a bit more research to do. Questions are great because it helps me to see the gaps in my (every-growing) knowledge of NZ plant healing remedies and natural remedies in general.

Self Heal is a homeobotanical company. This is a meld of homeopathy and herbal therapies. So each of their remedies is created in a unique way depending on the plant used and outcome required. One of their popular products is Marupa - soothes mucus membranes - recommended for asthmatics.
