  • Tiny Implants for Treating Chronic Pain: "The device works similarly to spinal-cord stimulators for managing chronic pain. The idea is that the electrical jolts delivered by the device override the neural pain signals being transmitted to the spinal cord. However, the precise mechanism is not yet clear. Existing devices have a battery and controller implanted beneath the skin, which delivers electrical pulses to a connected set of leads placed near the spinal cord. The MicroTranspond er device, in contrast, is wireless and has no batteries. The implanted portion consists of small electrodes and a small coil, which is powered by an external battery-powere d coil worn like a cuff on the arm or leg. The stimulation parameters are programmed via laptop or PDA and would be tailored to the individual patient."

Indigenous people in Belize use the plant to prepare a natural remedy to treat all types of skin problems including, sores, rashes, wounds, burns, itching, cuts, skin fungus, and insect stings and bites. The remedy is prepared by boiling a double handful of leaves, stems and flowers in 2 gallons of water for 10 minutes. After it cools, it's applied liberally to the affected area. This same remedy is also drunk as a tea to relieve menstrual cramps. The Choco Indians in Panama drink a leaf infusion for fever and bloody diarrhea; the Ingano Indians of northwest Amazonia prepare a leaf infusion for intestinal parasites. Indigenous tribes in Venezuela chew on the leaves to lower body temperature to prevent a sun or heat stroke. In the Peruvian Amazon, the leaves are used by the indigenous people for dysentery, fevers, rheumatism and scurvy. Leaves are also warmed or prepared into a poultice and applied externally as a pain reliever
  • Database entry Epazote - Chenopodium ambrosioides - Epazote - Chenopodium ambrosioides - Epazote - Chenopodium ambrosioides - Epazote - Chenopodium ambrosioides: Due to the toxicity of the essential oil (usually distilled from the seeds), the oil of this plant is no longer recommended for internal use. The leaves of the plant (containing smaller amounts of essential oil) is the preferred natural treatment for intestinal parasites in herbal medicine systems today throughout the world. It is best to find a source for only epazote leaves, as products sold as 'whole herb' can contain a significant amount of seeds (and resulting essential oil) depending on when it was harvested. For intestinal worms and parasites, most herbalists and practitioners recommend ½ cup of a standard leaf decoction taken in the morning on an empty stomach for three days in a row. On the fourth day, a mild laxative is given to evacuate the bowel (and the dead and dying parasites and worms). This is repeated two weeks later to address any worm eggs that may have survived and hatched.
