" is a waxy, white or transparent solid with a strong, aromatic odor. It is a terpenoid with the chemical formula C10H16O. It is found in wood of the camphor laurel (Cinnamomum camphora ), a large evergreen tree found in Asia (particularly in Borneo and Taiwan) and also of a giant of the Bornean forests. It also occurs in some other related trees in the laurel family, notably It can also be synthetically produced from oil of turpentine. It is used for its scent, as an ingredient in cooking (mainly in India), as an embalming fluid, for medicinal purposes, and in religious ceremonies. A major source of camphor in Asia is CAMPHOR TREE (Cinnamomum Camphora) :
Camphor leaves have a clean-smelling scent reminiscent of mothballs. Camphor is used medicinally, particularly in Chinese medicine where it is called Hsiang Chang. The Chinese prise this substance as a treatment for heart ailments, circulatory problems, and as a digestive. Camphor is used as a sedative and calming agent and to treat convulsions, hysteria, and insomnia.
In the West, we have concentrated on using camphor to treat the discomforts of cold and flu, upper respiratory ailments, rheumatism, muscle pains, and body aches. Camphorated oil, Grandma's favorite, can be made by adding a few drops of the essential oil to 3 tablespoons melted aloe butter, shea butter, or mango butter.
You can also add a drop or so of camphor oil to a handkerchief and inhale the scent to clear nasal passages and sinuses.
WILD CAMPHOR TREE (Tarchonanthus Camphoratus) (Also known as Camphor Bush for its scent, or "in Kenya), is a shrub or small tree, native to eastern and Southern Africa and Arabia.
The Camphor Tree can reach up to 6 meters in height. The twigs and younger stems are white-felted, as are the undersides of the leaves. The upper leaf surface is dark olive-green. Flowers are usually present from December to May (in South Africa), with cream colored panicles. Male flowering heads have several flowers whilst the female has only a few. The fruit is a dense and woolly achene.
The wood of the Wild Camphor Tree is used as fuel, as a traditional building material, in horticulture, and in tribal papermaking. Wild" also a source of charcoal, and essential oils used as fragrances. It leaves are used by the Maasai to scent their homes and persons.
Wild Camphor is used as a traditional remedy for respiratory illnesses. Twigs of" can be used to clean teeth and aid oral hygiene, as well as a wide range of other local uses.
Several South African companies sell bush teas internationally (wildcrafted, organic, indigenous herbs) that contain wild camphor. Wild camphor tree offers many benefits. The South African"-"people use wild camphor for its soothing qualities. Dried leaves are used in ceremonies to annoint the body during rituals. The leaves and seeds are used to fumigate Camphor smoke treats rheumatism, headache, and insomnia. The tea relieves stomach ailments, asthma, anxiety, and heartburn.
The leaves contain an insecticide used to deter lice and external parasites.
CAUTIONARY NOTE: Ingestion of large amounts in camphor can result in neurological and respiratory problems, along with seizures, and culinary camphor should be used with care. More commonly, camphor poisoning appears after someone has accidentally ingested a liniment containing camphor, or applied a liniment in excess, causing the body to absorb too much camphor through the skin. A poison control center should be contacted if someone is manifesting symptoms of camphor poisoning, and if possible the labeling for the product ingested should be retained.
Another Cautionary Note: WHILE CAMPHOR HAS BENEFICIAL USES IT CAN ALSO CAUSE MANY NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS. BOWLES IDENTIFIES SOME OF THE COMPONENTS IN CAMPHOR OIL AS POTENTIALLY DAMAGING TO THE LIVER AND ALSO AS KNOWN NEUROTOXINS. ROSE SAYS YOU SHOULD NOT USE CAMPHOR OIL IF PREGNANT OR AROUND BABIES AND YOUNG CHILDREN.

Anyeta Petulengro (read about her family here) by all accounts was indeed a noted herbalist. She refused any payment for her cures, and helped hundreds of village folk who were sick or needed advice. Being a true Romany she never took money for curing - though it was often offered in gratitude - because tribal tradition said it would be most unlucky to do so. Herbs, cereals, vegetables, fruit barks, simples of every kind are the remedies, the salves which God has sent to the Romany to heal his ills. It is for us to use them, to neglect nature`s cures is to turn away our greatest treasure.
There is one truth about sickness you must never forget. Nature makes the ailments and nature makes the cure. Over the next several days, I'll be uploading lots of information on herbs and authentic Gypsy herbal cures. Here is a list of posts on herbal remedies currently available on this site:

Impotence in males, the inability to achieve an erection during sexual intercourse has been recently found to be very highly tied in most cases (about 80% of them) to the same cause of heart disease and stroke: atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries.
An erection is accomplished by the work of the penis' blood vessels, when blood vessels are damaged by atherosclerosis they can't function properly. Unfortunately most men are not aware of the connection and continue to eat the high-fat cholesterol-rich American diet which is the primary cause of atherosclerosis.
Besides atherosclerosis, the typical American diet is also responsible for many of the other contributing factors to impotence in the male. Too much dietary fat can lead to obesity, a major cause of Diabetes. Diabetes not only worsens atherosclerosis but also injures the nerves that stimulate an erection. A poor diet also can lead to high blood pressure, which many doctors will proscribe a medication for (such as Aldomet) that can cause impotence as a side effect.
Consumed fats also can raise the body's pituitary hormone prolactin, which when high suppresses the hormones needed for sexual functioning (elevated prolactin is the cause of 19 percent of all impotency cases).
Alcohol can cause temporary impotence. Marijuana can raise the prolactin levels and may also in some cases cause long-term impotency. Some prescription ulcer medications also boost prolactin levels. Other medicine that can cause impotence includes tranquilizers, antidepressants, anticholinergics, estrogens and other drugs that suppress male hormones.
Actions that can be taken thru diet to cure the problem start with a low-fat vegetarian regimen centered on starches (such as whole grains, legumes, pasta, potatoes and bread), vegetables and fruits. Such a diet provides plenty of carbohydrates, protein and fiber, but avoids cholesterol completely and limits fat to between 5 and 10 percent of daily calories. IN contrast, the typical American diet contains 600 milligrams of cholesterol and is about 40 percent fat.
Secondly a good regular moderate exercise program, such as walking or jogging, bicycling, swimming or aerobic dance for 30 to 60 minutes per day is enough to keep in good physical condition.
An herbal extract called yohimbine can also be of great aid (according to the Journal of Urology 137:1168, 1987). Yohimbine, isolated from the bark of the African yohumbehe tree, appears to work by decreasing the blood flow out of the penis. Yohimbehe has long been used as a traditional treatment in Africa for impotence and Western medicine has confirmed its effectiveness.
Yohimbine is sold by prescription under the names of Aphrodyne, Yocon and Yohimex in 5.4 milligram (mg) capsules. Natural food stores carry the natural bark, which has an unspecified amount of the active ingredient yohimbine. The usual dosage is 18 mg daily, but one study used 42 mg. (Journal of Urology 141:1360, 1989). In this trial, 34 percent of men with Serious physical problems, such as advanced atherosclerosis and diabetes, were helped. There are no serious side effects reported from its use.
