STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

I bought some Evening Primrose oil tablets for PMS but I always forget to take them. The only other herbal supplements I take are in tea. I drink chamomile(sp?) for sleepy time, and peppermint for digestion, etc. (this is new, I just discovered how good it is!!)

I once wanted to take St Johns Wort for sleeping but it can compromise birth control pills. This was found in a British study. If you ask a Canadian pharmacist they will say "Oh no, that isn't true" but I think the British are ahead of us on this one.(herbals).

Do you have a health plan?? My plan covers naturopaths. Maybe yours does too. I think that would be your best bet.

I am all for the natural approach to healing. I am just thankfully without many complaints. I know tea tree oil works well on zits and cuts, etc.

I read Natural Health magazine,it is very informative. Also Yoga magazine.

And I know what you mean about doctors. They don't give you a straight answer because they don't know much about the subject. Plus it kind of threatens their gig doesn't it?
