According to the American Heritage Dictionary, "shingles" is a viral infection characterized by inflammation of the sensory ganglia of certain spinal or cranial nerves and the eruption of vesicles along the affected nerve path.  Also called herpes zoster.

Organic herbs can support treatment for all kinds of diseases and reduce the reliance on harsher substances that have adverse side effects.

Dr. Charles A. Champion, D. Ph. Pharmacist & Herbalist recommends the following old-fashion, homemade ORGANIC herbal treatment for "Shingles":

Apply organic apple cider vinegar, just as it comes from the bottle, to the skin area where the shingles are located, four times during the day and three times during the night if you are awake. The itching and burning sensation in the skin will leave usually within a few minutes after the organic vinegar is applied. Many old-timers swear by this treatment declaring that the shingles heal much more readily from the regular use of organic apple cider vinegar.

*Please note that no natural remedies have yet been proven to be effective for shingles but these homemade remedies have been used traditionally.  I t is important that you consult your doctor as soon as possible if you think you have shingles.
