Teething Remedies for Children

All the children in our family wear them until they turn 2 years. It is called sour dock root and some call it yellow root.

Yellow root is a common name for goldenseal. I kno particularly this can be found in the mountains of west virginia as I use to dig this to make extra cash selling it. It has uses for infection and such. My dad use to use this for teeth being infected. As the gentleman above mentioned, the taste is horrible. It does work great though as it clears out your system.

Whenever a baby in our family started teething, my grandmother would get a small length of "yellow root" and cut it into 1/4 to 1/2 inch chunks and make a small necklace. She would make them stong enough so that the child could not break it and placed it around the baby's neck and all during teething periods. The children never had swelling or pain from the teething!!

This is or was used extensively in edgar cayce's work and the native american indians used it for child birthing to help the mother. More can be found at Edgar Cayce's herbals use's... God bless....
