Bodily Influences: Hyssop is an herb mentioned often in the Bible. In the Old Testament Psalms 51:7 Hyssop is recommended to clean and purify the body. More modern use elaborates on the property of Hyssop as a regulator and reducer of high blood pressure as well as increasing circulation. Hyssop lubricates internal tissue fluids and sweeps away debris to prepare clean surfaces for absorption and elimination, thus, Hyssop is an hygienic herb. Through this action, surfaces of lungs, stomach, blood vessels and all vital body parts are cleaned internally. Hyssop provides one of the most basic approaches that can be taken to restore system functions.

Causes of Intestinal Gas

Excess upper intestinal gas can result from swallowing more than a usual amount of air, overeating, smoking or chewing gum. Excess lower intestinal gas can be caused by eating too much of certain foods, by the inability to fully digest certain foods or by a disruption in the bacteria normally found in the colon.

1. Beans and lentils
2. Vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, bok choy and Brussels sprouts
3. Bran
4. Dairy products containing lactose
5. Fructose, which is found in some fruits and used as a sweetener in soft drinks and other products
6. Sorbitol, a sugar substitute found in some sugar-free candies, gums and artificial sweeteners
