Scaevola Spinescens, (Maroon Bush, Murin Murin, Prickly Fan Flower, Current Bush
This Plant grows in semi arid areas throughout much of Australia except Tasmania and Victoria . It is a medium sized shrub, with stiff upright branches, thin leaves in a long oval shape, which come off the main stem in clusters, with spines which make it quite prickly. The flowers are creamy/white to yellow with petals spread like an open fan. The flower is followed by small purplish berries or currants containing a single seed. It is important to find the correct bush as many plants can be toxic. It is illegal to pick scaevola spinescens without a permit. To make the tea: Simply soak 50gm potbag in 2-3 litres of water for at least 24 hours (in fridge in Summer). A 2.6kg Mayonnaise jar is good for soaking, leave the tea potbag in until you have used the tea up.... When soaked you may wish to boil the tea for 2-3 minutes (optional). Keep tea potbags dry while in storage. People I know talk of 100ml doses three or more times per day. Use common sense – if unusual symptoms occur discontinue, or modify the dose. You may be best to begin with a small dose and gradually increase it. Taking the tea in dark grape juice makes it more palatable – and grape juice is very good for you too.
Keep regular medical checks with your Doctors. Scaevola Spinescens is an Aboriginal bush medicine and has traditionally been used by Aboriginal people for the treatment of cancer, heart disease, intestinal trouble, urinary problems, kidney trouble and general illnesses. It is believed by many to be beneficial in the treatment of cancer. There are no guarantees, however I sincerely hope this plant improves the quality of your life. Please remember – to use it is your choice!

Aussie Outback Books PO Box 10 MT HELENA WA 6082 Ph: 95721004 Mob: 0427888662 Natural Steps to Healing, by Chris Barrett and Jeanie Crago This information is intended to guide you in things you can do and use in conjunction with the Maroon Bush Tea. Scaevola spinescens, commonly known as Maroon Bush, Murin Murin, Prickly Fan Flower, Currant Bush and Gurrburu tea is an Aboriginal bush medicine and has traditionally been used by Aboriginal people for the treatment of cancer, heart disease, intestinal trouble, urinary problems, kidney trouble and general illnesses. It is believed by many to be beneficial in the treatment of cancer. While there are many success stories it is not a proven cure and no medical trials have been done. We have used Maroon Bush tea for some time, and have heard many examples of its benefit for health, however, we also promote in this material, several products, which appear to fit into a natural, healthy approach to treating cancer and good health. In all of these you must be the judge, it is your life and future that is important here. Why is the incidence of cancer increasing? We live in an imperfect world where we are subjected to environmental hazards at every turn, often with chemicals in the air we breathe from herbicides and pesticides, plus vehicle and industrial pollution. We live in a high tech world where many of us are too busy just trying to make a living, surrounded by noise, hustle and bustle which can put excess stress on some people. Among all this high tech - some believe even our mobile phones may be causing us damage? Much of our food is packaged in plastics which many believe are a cause of cancer. Much of our food is loaded with preservatives, antibiotics, artificial flavours and colours. What of the influence of the chemical fertilisers, herbicides and pesticides used to grow our food? The influence of these may go right through the food chain - vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts, dairy foods and meats. Take-aways and fast food are often highly processed foods containing high fat, sugars and food additives. Among all of this we need to make the best dietary choices we can. Check the health alternatives listed here very carefully, choose wisely - Consulting a health professional, eg. A Dietician or experienced Naturopath should be able to give you a balanced diet and supplement plan.
Things you can do for your body Alkalinize your system Eat Alkalinising foods where possible, foods such as green vegetables, and cabbage juice. Boiled brown rice is good for you, and the liquid from it is said to be very good. Black Cumin may increase your bone marrow production of immune cells and aid in alkalinisation. Some alkalinising foods Vegetables - garlic, asparagus, watercress, beets, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, collard greens, cucumber, eggplant, kale, kohlrabi, lettuce, mushrooms, mustard greens, dandelions, edible flowers, onions, parsnips (high glycemic), peas, peppers, pumpkin, rutabaga, sea veggies, spirulina, sprouts, squashes, alfalfa, barley grass, wheat grass, wild greens, orange, lemon, peach, pear, berries, tangarine, tropical fruits, watermelon. Proteins - Cottage cheese, almonds, chestnuts, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, squash seeds, sunflower seeds, whole grain rice. Boost Your Immune System Vit A, C, E & K, Vitamins and Minerals Live food juices - a natural source of vitamins and minerals Anti-oxidants Protein Maroon Bush tea. We use this product for our health and have had excellent results, and there are a large and growing number of people who have used it as an aid in treating cancer. It is an Aboriginal bush medicine and has traditionally been used by Aboriginal people for the treatment of cancer, heart disease, intestinal trouble, urinary problems, kidney trouble and general illnesses. It is believed by many to be beneficial in the treatment of cancer and may boost the immune system. While there are many success stories it is not a proven cure and no medical trials have been done, however research shows anti-tumour activity (Dr P. Kerr & Prof. R. Longmore, Curtin Univ. 1991, Dr P. Kerr is now at Charles Sturt University) Begin with a small dose and increase it slowly. Discontinue or modify the dose if you notice any unusual symptoms. You can visit these links for more information or to order: www.naturalcancertreatment.org or www.bushmedicine.ws
Reduce Stress and any negative response to it "Stress is a somewhat over-killed word, however the effects of worry, anxiety, fear, pressure and the hectic pace of life today is a major contributor to ill health. We encourage you to read the section titled meditation on www.naturalcancertreatment.org where Chris documents some of his own journey of recovery from stress and burnout. Adequate Sleep is very important. Readers Digest, July 2006 page 124 & 125 quote research that suggest adults need between 7 and 9 hours per night, and if you don’t get enough you may compromise your immune system.Eat healthy and Cancer fighting Foods Fresh, uncooked fruit and vegetables Flax Seed Oil - Keep refrigerated. Do not heat or cook with it, add to salads or foods after they have been cooked. Flax seeds can also be sprouted and eaten as any other sprout. Olive Oil - Extra Virgin, un-heat processed olive oil. Avocado, coconut, coconut cream or milk Beetroot: This is best raw grated or as an additive to juice. Pomegranate Noni Juice and Goji Juice Dark skinned grapes (some people eat the seeds as well) Grape Juice Blue Berries Other purple skinned foods you can use are, red cabbage, and purple onions. Garlic Brazil nuts: sprouted or soaked– a good source of selenium if grown on soils containing selenium. Almonds Apricot kernels have been used as a cancer treatment, however check carefully as they may also cause harm. Papaya as a food Use the almost mature green papaw that just turns yellow inside. Preferably use with the skin. You can juice or grate the fruit too and mix with salads or blend into a drink Papaya Tea - Fill a saucepan with as many leaves as you can, cover with water and Simmer for 2 - 3 hours, drain and refrigerate the liquid. Drink one large glassful three times a day. It does not taste nice, I’ve tried it! Lemon Juice - juice of 1/2 lemon in glass of water first thing in the morning is reported to aid digestion and liver. Frequent small meals - Some people recommend frequent small meals, ie. 4-6 small meals/snacks per day as it is believed to be easier to digest. Protein - eat small amounts of protein from varied sources, eg. legumes, tofu, nuts, eggs, fish, chicken and red meat. as some is important for healing and repair. I view my plate as a pie chart with the fruit and vegetable making up most of it and the protein foods only being a slice of the pie. You need to work out your own balance. Where possible try to get chicken and meats not treated with hormones or antibiotics. Supplements and Extracts you may have to buy Check the health alternatives listed here very carefully, choose wisely - Consulting a health professional, eg. Dietician or an experienced Naturopath should be able to give you a balanced diet and supplement plan. Most of these will be available in your local health food shop, but some you will need to order in. For example Q10 and Cellular Zeolite are difficult to get in Australia . The get healthy again link: (http://www.gethealthyagain.com/products.html) will be useful here. Omega 3 - Microgenics Natural fish oil 1000mg, (there are many brands to choose from.) Salmon for a natural source of Omega 3 is said to be good
Glucosomine Vitamin C Enzyme Supplements to aid your digestion. Two which are available are Betaine HCL and HCL Activator. Seek qualified advice for dosages and discontinue if you experience digestive complaints.
Another Product called Cellular Zeolite, may be worth getting. This is only available from the USA . Check the internet. My research suggests the powdered form is cheaper and equally effective Zeolite is apparently very effective in removing heavy metals, herbicides etc from the body.
