The Tradition of Cola Syrup as a Gentle Remedy for Nausea and Stomach Discomfort
Cola syrup has been trusted for generations as a soothing, natural remedy for mild nausea and upset stomach. It is pleasant, safe, and surprisingly fast-acting way to calm queasiness. One of the simplest and most effective ways to use it is to pour a small amount over cracked ice and sip it slowly every few minutes. This method allows the syrup to gently settle the stomach and ease discomfort.
You can enjoy cola syrup mixed with plain water, poured over ice, or just taken by itself, depending on your personal taste. This flexibility makes cola syrup a versatile remedy in your home medicine chest, especially since many health care practitioners now recommend avoiding carbonated beverages when dealing with stomach issues. Because cola syrup is free from carbonation, it offers a natural, effective alternative.

Cola Syrup as a Time-Tested Wellness Aid According to Edgar Cayce
One of the most fascinating aspects of cola syrup is its connection to Edgar Cayce. Cayce recommended cola syrup not just as a drink but as a medicinal tonic. Cayce emphasized that cola syrup acted as an alkalizer for the body and helped cleanse the bladder and kidneys. His guidance on how to use cola syrup as a natural remedy remains relevant today.
Here are some of Cayce’s key recommendations:
For Kidney Health
“Do take cola occasionally as a drink for the activity of the kidneys, but do not take it with carbonated water. Buy or have the syrup prepared and add plain water to this. Take about half an ounce or one ounce of the syrup and add plain water. This to be taken about every other day with or without ice. This will aid in purifying the kidney activity and bladder and will be better for the body.” – Cayce
Kidney Cleansing and Eliminations
“Cleanse kidneys by taking pure cola syrup (one ounce to an ounce and a half of plain water). Take this for ten days – leave off five days and repeat for a month, then leave off a month and repeat.” – Cayce
Avoid Carbonation
“Keep free from any carbonated waters, for the carbonation causes an effluvium in the blood. Cola is helpful to the kidneys, but if taken, use the syrup in plain water – and this will not be very palatable to the body.” – Cayce
Kidney and Liver Circulation
“Do not take too heavy foods for this body. Never take any carbonated water, although the syrup of cola in plain water will be well for the body. This will react with circulation between the kidneys and liver and clear off much of the poisons, which benefits the sensory system.” – Cayce
Bladder Support
“Do take cola occasionally as a drink for the activity of the kidneys but do not take it with carbonated water. Prepare the syrup with plain water and take about half to one ounce every other day with or without ice. This will help purify the kidney activity and bladder.” – Cayce
Blood Purification
“Cola prepared from the syrup and taken with plain water (not carbonated) will not be harmful. In fact, it helps purify the blood flow and supports kidney function.” – Cayce

Sulflax: A Remedy For Stimulating Eliminations
The formula name, Sulflax, was created by combining the name of one of its key ingredients and its function. It contains the prefix “sulf” (sulfur) and “lax” (laxative), its remedial purpose.
Enhancing better eliminations is a major component for achieving better health – part of Dr. Harold J. Reilly’s C.A.R.E. formula: Circulation, Assimilation, Relaxation, Elimination. While some laxatives are considered too harsh for some systems, he did offer other means of assisting and stimulating eliminations. This particular formula is one such remedy, and it is recommended to individuals in the Cayce readings from the ages of 21 months to 74 years.
Amount and Frequency
Taking Sulflax® can extend from once per day for 2 to 3 days, up to as long as 2 weeks; the suggested use is in the middle range of this spread–from 3 to 7 days. Some are advised to take Sulflax in a series, such as 3 to 5 days, rest 5 days, then repeat. With just a few exceptions, it is to be taken daily in the morning before breakfast; for some every other day is suitable, and for a few twice a day–morning and evening–is recommended. It can be taken either dry or mixed in a glass of water, while a few mention warm or hot water. Some customers state that they added it to syrup or honey.
The length of time recommended for taking Sulflax often depended upon one’s reaction to it, so that once eliminations have begun, it can be discontinued. Ten days and 2 weeks is the longest recommended time for taking Sulflax consistently. As mentioned earlier, it can be taken in a series, with rest periods in between repetitions.
Expected Effects from Using Sulflax
As to the purpose of the remedy, it is a purifier and cleanser for the body–for the circulatory and digestive systems as well as a stimulant for the elimination system. In its role as a mild laxative, it not only will increase the eliminations and set up the better assimilating forces for the body, but it will also cleanse and purify the alimentary canal (the passageway extending from the mouth to the anus through which food is processed and digested).
Additional Information
Poor eliminations may be the indirect or direct cause of various physical ailments for which Dr. Reilly’s patients asked for help. It is always advisable to seek advice from a health professional when beginning a new regimen of treatment.
It’s important to keep in mind that very rarely is only one item suggested for a particular health problem. Other remedies, such as osteopathic adjustments, the three-day apple diet, massages, steams, or colonics, are also recommended either during or after the taking of Sulflax. Each remedy has its own function to aid and assist the body in coming to a better balanced condition.
The Health Benefits of Jerusalem Artichoke
Native to central North America, Jerusalem Artichokes, often called by the more modern name “sunchokes,” can be eaten much like a potato. This vegetable is not truly an artichoke but a variety of sunflower with a lumpy, brown-skinned tuber that often resembles a Ginger root. The white flesh of this vegetable is nutty, sweet and crunchy and is a good source of iron. Along with supplying iron, it also hosts a large amount of health benefits.
The Jerusalem Artichoke is one of the finest sources of dietary fibers. Each Jerusalem Artichoke contains large amounts of inulin, a zero calorie and inert carbohydrate, which does not undergo metabolism inside the human body. Its high amount of inulin makes it an ideal sweetener for diabetics. Inulin fights harmful bacteria inside the gastrointestinal tract making Jerusalem artichokes a fantastic prebiotic. The soluble and insoluble fibers in this tuber bind to toxic compounds in the gut and alleviate constipation by normalizing bowel movements.
The soluble fiber in the Jerusalem Artichoke also helps the body manage healthy cholesterol levels, supports healthy blood pressure and may also help to reduce inflammation.
Carbohydrates in foods break down into simple sugars quickly and cause blood glucose levels to spike and drop sharply. Fluctuating blood glucose levels may significantly increase the risk of fatigue, heart disease, moodiness, immune deficiencies, and diabetes. The Jerusalem Artichoke is considered a low GI (glycemic index) food and provides a slow and stable rise and fall in blood glucose levels.
The tuber contains anti-oxidant vitamins like vitamin C, A, and E. The combination of the vitamins, minerals, electrolytes and flavonoid compounds, eliminate harmful free radicals in the body thereby reducing inflammation and strengthening the immune system.
Make the Jerusalem Artichoke part of your healthy diet!
Liquid Herbal Extracts Benefits
Herbal extracts have been traditionally used to maintain, restore and improve health. But which is the best way to experience the medicinal benefits of an herb – capsules, teas or liquid extracts? Capsules may be convenient and teas may be easy to make but a liquid herbal extract offers benefits that these do not.
Tablets and capsules lose the potency of many of their active ingredients both in production and storage. Herbal tablets are prepared with fillers, binders and other materials necessary to compress the ground herbs into a tablet form. Herbal capsules tend to be better than tablets because they dissolve more easily in the stomach and do not contain the extra binding materials, however, if the body is not digesting and assimilating well, the potential therapeutic benefits of an herbal extract are diminished. Herbs in a capsule and tablet form also loose potency faster as they are exposed to oxygen.
Liquid Herbal Extracts tend to be more potent and offer a greater concentration of the plant’s medicinal properties. Their absorption occurs more quickly allowing the herbal properties to enter the bloodstream with minimal digestive effort.
Benefits of Taking a Liquid Herbal Extract:
1.They are absorbed more easily.
2. They are easy to take.
3. They have a longer shelf-life.
4. They offer a greater concentration of the plant constituents.
5. They can be mixed in water, juice, or tea.
6. They allow the aroma and taste of an herb to be experienced.
7. May provide quicker benefits.
Alcohol Extraction:
Some herbs will not release their innate healing properties without a strong solvent such as Alcohol to extract its medicinal benefits. Alcohol has proven to work better than water for the extraction process of the plant’s active herbal constituents (parts of the plant that have an action on the body). It also protects the extract from bacterial growth, enhances the potency of the herb, preserves without refrigeration, extends shelf-life and brings out the aroma and flavor of the herbs.
Suggested Use:
Most liquid herbal extracts can have a shelf life of up to 2 to 4 years. Store the liquid extract in a cool, dark place and shake well before each use. Always mix the dose in water, juice or tea to avoid irritating the mouth. Sip slowly and savor the flavor and aroma – an integral part of the plant’s therapeutic benefits. And don’t forget to check with your doctor – some herbs are contra-indicated when taking prescription drugs.
Cola Syrup made with 100% Natural Cane Sugar
By Bruce Baar, MS, ND
Cola Syrup is still used today as a home remedy for mild nausea and stomach distress. I have used it myself and I find it to be a pleasant, safe and a fast-acting remedy. The most common way to prepare Cola Syrup is to pour a small amount over cracked ice and sip it slowly every few minutes. It may also be diluted with water or sipped straight in its syrup form without ice. Because many health care practitioners are suggesting the avoidance of carbonated beverages, this simple remedy is a natural choice.
Baar Products offers 3 types of Cola syrup, one made with natural cane sugar, one made with cherry flavor and cane sugar and one made with high fructose corn syrup. A change occurred many years ago when the price of sugar became very expensive and high fructose corn syrup was substituted by the big beverage companies. Because of the many customer requests for Cola Syrup made with natural cane sugar, we have introduced a caffeine-free Cane Sugar formula. Both are old-fashioned remedies and favorites that are great to have available in the home medicine chest.
Benefits and Mixtures:
· Cola syrup is excellent for relieving nausea, settling an upset stomach and calming the urge to vomit.
· This syrup is perfect as a base for occasional beverage making for those who wish to avoid carbonation.
· Most common use for nausea is to pour 1-2 tablespoons over crushed ice, sip slowly.
· Other diluted preparations include mixing 1 ounce Cola Syrup with 3-5 ounces of plain water.
Cayce recommended that Cola Syrup be used like a medicine rather than as a beverage. He advised that mixed with plain water, the syrup acted as an alkalizer for the body and cleanser for the bladder and kidneys. Here are some of Cayce’s comments:
For The Kidney:
Do take … Cola occasionally as a drink for the activity of the kidneys, but do not take it with carbonated water. Buy or have the syrup prepared and add plain water to this.

Carbonation:

Kidney and Liver:

Kidney and Blood:
…Cola or the like, if it is prepared from the syrup and using plain water (not carbonated water), will be not harmful; in fact, it would be helpful for the kidneys and for the purifying of the blood flow. — Cayce
