Try a natural remedy for e
By Marianne Austin
Many people still rely
on home remedies (sometimes
referred to as a granny
cure) as a treatment to cure
a disease or ailment using
only natural ingredients.
Edmond Heillegass,
originally from Tiverton,
has a natural cure for
eczema he has used successfully
for family and friends.
Eczema is a condition
where patches of skin
become inflamed, itchy,
red, cracked and rough.
Blisters may sometimes
occur.
“I know how to make a
cure for eczema that I want
to share to help others. I
have used it for years, and
it works,” Heillegass said.
“I got married in 1947, and
my wife had eczema bad on
both hands that she couldn’t
get rid of. An older lady told
her, ‘Well, I have a cure for
it.’ I made it right away. She
began rubbing it onto her
skin, and the eczema was
gone in five days. I know a
nurse here that made it for
her three little kids. I tell
everyone about it.”
Heillegass explained
how to make it. “Take a
branch from an elderberry
bush, peel off the bark and
throw it away. The green
skin underneath is what
you want. Scrape it off
and fry it in unsalted lard
until crisp and then strain
it and let it set. It will turn
into a light-green salve.
