| Your experience with natural medicine & herbs that work/don't work Posted: 9/10/2006 7:38:50 AM | | I've used some natural blood sugar lowering methods, if anyone's interested. [this is my first time posting on this particular site... are there email alerts when there's a response as there are on other sites and as there are for email messages at this one? Guess I'll find out lol] | |

| Oregano oil Posted: 9/10/2006 8:28:47 AM | I have been using oregano oil to ward off colds and flu for the past couple of years and either I have been exceptionally lucky or the stuff works. I have had neither cold nor flu since I started taking the stuff.
The method I use is when I begin to feel run down or get a scratchy throat I put 3 or 4 drops into a gel cap and swallow. I tried just putting it directly on my tongue but it is a bit harsh for me.
cheers

| Your experience with natural medicine & herbs that work/don't work Posted: 9/12/2006 12:54:57 AM | I actually found a newer product called HImilayan Goji Juice that has worked wonders for everyone in my family including myself. I had a serious problem with my lungs, as well I have been bipolar for many years. My mother actually started taking this product when her arthritis started to get really bad, I watched as she took this juice twice a day and within weeks I was amazed that she was gardening again, and typing on the computer, and cooking and doing all the things I hadn't been able to see her do for a few years. As well seh wasn't taking her arthritis medication after a month and hasn't since. So when my bipolar disorder got significantly worse she said maybe I should just try a little bit a day for a couple weeks, and go back to my doctor. I was amazed when I went back to my doctor to find that he wanted to reduce my dosage to half of what I had been taking on my anti-depressants. Within 3 months I was off of them completely and haven't felt better. As well my daughter who is 6 has ADHD, we have tried many drugs on her to try and get her concentration to be more focused and her high energy levels to a calmer level, but had no success. So I decided to try a little Goji on her. I was pleasantly surprised that after a semester of slipping 1 ounce of goji into her juice in the morning her grades had gone up and her teachers were beyond impressed. As well my roomate for a long time had a son, and he had Epilepsy and Autism. He was non-vocal and developmentally challenged. We started giving him Goji and he became more vocal mimicking what we would say and trying to speak. About 2 months after starting Goji, his doctor took him of Lamictal and he is progressing greatly, as well he has only had 1 seizure in 3 weeks!!!! That is amazing considering he used to have seizures 3-5 times a day. i'd definatly try this product, it's tried, tested, and true to what it says.
