Are there any specific remedies in the Bible?

Question

It is very specific about eating and drinking habits, but what about curing or treating an illness or condition or accident. I've seen the "Bible Cure For Diabetes" and other Bible Cures books, but I'm curious if the Bible ever recommends a specific way to fix any health problem. I'm not looking to use it, just curious...

Answer 1

no, just prayer....those BIBLE CURE books are just profiting on the Bible...what ails you, god does give us doctors....

Answer 2

I'm told there is something in the bible about oil of oregano.
It's been used as a medicine for thousands of years.
I know the Roman soldiers use to carry it with them.

Answer 3

I think those folks who wrote about "Bible cures..." needed to be very specific about how they applied what they tout to the Bible.

Timothy was advised to drink "a little wine" to help with his digestive system, he had a nervous stomach.

Basically, gluttony is considered sinful (one of the seven deadly) and harmful.

Answer 4

I remember there were examples of healing using water, hot water for colds. I think they were in the Old Testament.
The Bible is full of stories about curing illnesses, by faith and by Jesus Christ.

Answer 5

Don't look to use it. The guy has a lot of ideas that haven't passed the test of time and science.

Answer 6

organic green teas and leafy green veggies
Diet has everything to do with it and tapping into the power of our minds ..Sure there's things you can do in the aid of healing, but if we knew who we were and what we possess we would only need God..What a concept..Don't think we are there yet!

Answer 7

As far as i know nowhere it is mentioned take a specific
herb for this or that but how to eat has been certainly
recommended. Here is the gist of it from the Essene Gospels
as mentioned on page 244/245 of the book
SPIRITUAL NUTRITION by Dr. Gabriel Cousens - M.D.

For the power of God's angels enters into you with the living
food which the Lord gives you from his royal table. And when
you eat, have above you the angel of air, and below you the
angel of water. Breathe long and deeply at all your meals,
that the angel of air may bless your repasts. And chew well
your good with your teeth, that it becomes water and that
the angel of water turn it into blood in your body. And eat
slowly, as it were a prayer you make to the Lord. For I tell
you truly, the power of God enters into you, if you eat in this
manner at His table. But Satan turns into a steaming bog
the body of him upon whom the angels of the air and water
do not descend at his repasts. And the Lord suffers him no
longer at His table. For the table of the Lord is an altar, and
he who eats at the table of God, is in a temple. For i tell
you truly, the body of the Sons of Man is turned into a temple,
and their inwards into an altar, if they do the commandments
of God. Wherefore, put naught upon the altar of the Lord
when your spirit is vexed, neither think upon anyone with
anger in the temple of God. And enter only into the Lord's
sanctuary when you feel in yourselves the call of His angels, for all that you eat in sorrow, or in anger, or without desire,
becomes a poison in your body. For the breath of Satan
defiles all these. Place with joy your offerings upon the
altar of your body and let all evil thoughts depart from you
when you receive into your body the power of God from
His table. - Edmond Bordeaux Szekely, THE ESSENE
GOSPEL OF PEACE, BOOK ONE (International
Biogenic Society, 1981).
This in short can be summed up as follows:-
Eat live food not cooked.
Eat only when you are truly hungry.
Eat liquid drink solid (which means chew your solid food and
liquids should be sipped not gulped)
Whenever mentally disturbed never eat.

Hope this will satisfy your curiosity and cheers! :o)
