| Do you take herbal supplements? | | I was diagnosed with endometriosis. My doctor gave me medicine to alleviate dysmenorrhea during my period. The medicine, coupled with prayers, also helped decrease the size of my tumor. Doctor advised that if my cyst won't disappear,I would probably undergo laparoscopy. Many concerned friends told me to drink herbal supplements. Some of my friends said it can work wonders because it save them from operation. I made a research on the internet to find herbal supplements but there were gazillions of products on the net. Have you tried taking herbal supplements?
Which one is very effective? I would be more than glad to hear feedbacks. Thanks. | |
| | Do you take herbal supplements? | | There are so many different supplements available all claiming to help this or that. Some of the names I am familiar with (though I couldn't tell you what they do) are ginseng, ginko biloba, echinacea, fish oil, and St john's Wort, just to name a few. I was just wondering if you took any of these(or others not listed) and what it is supposed to be good for, and if you have seen any improvements from taking these? | |

| Herbal supplements for anxiety | | Has anyone had any luck with herbal products for anxiety and panic?I've been trying Valerian, and it seems to be somewhat helpful. | |
| | Herbal Supplements | | Herbal Supplements are different from vitamin and mineral supplements int that they are considered to have medicinal value. Herbs, also knows as botanicals, are one of humanity's oldest health care tools, and the basis of many modern medicines. Primitive and ancient civilization relied on herbs for healing, as do contemporary cultures throughout the world. In fact, the World Health Organization has estimated that 80% of the world's population continues to use traditional therapies, a major part of which are derived from plants. If you are taking other medications, refrain from taking herbal supplements and over-the-counter medications or prescription drugs can combine to cause adverse side effects. Just because an herbal supplement is extracted from a natural source does not render it any less potent than any other chemicals you may ingest. | |

| I used to like John McCain but now I'm not so sure....here's why.... | | As most that know me here; I'm a Master Herbalist. I use herbs in my practice of helping people to get healthier with supplements that support the body's systems.
I do not use any traditional over the counter or Rx drugs at all....not even aspirin.
If I was really sick with something like cancer; I'd treat it like everything else...with herbs.
The success that I have had with supplements are simply put...amazing.
I never thought that I'd do this but as I've gotten older I realized that the medical community and the political community as a whole do not really care about me or my health. The bottom line is money. The money it takes to keep this country going with people being sick is astounding.Having said that I was absolutely appalled to find out that John McCain...a political figure that I thought was a pretty good guy is actually just another politician. An idiot with an agenda.
I found out that he has sponsored a bill that would regulate supplements of all kinds...even herbs.
Now for those of you that find this might be a good idea let me set you straight.
The FDA or Federal Drug Administration would be the regulators....and I find this is a lot like the fox... | |
| | Managing Stress | | People are under stress in today's society from their jobs, and the struggles of paying their bills. They might be coping with sickness or obesity, and the stress in their lives just builds up. Instead of taking drugs or smoking and drinking to relieve stress, you should try a more natural alternative to medications. Some drugs are addicting and you may need more and more pills eventually. Try exercising. Taking a walk every morning can actually reduce the level of stress on the body. The brain's chemistry changes when the body is undergoing activity. Another method is to listen to music. Music is a form of therapy, and it also relaxes the mind. Lastly, talk to someone about your problems. A co-worker might be able to give you valuable feedback. Just having a chat can be very beneficial and extremely helpful in getting the stress under control. I really think that managing stress is the key to healthy living. | |
