(Caution... lots of lengthy rambling about things that may interest only me
.... sorry)
Hi. Thanks for the reply. Well, I'm having symptoms of parasite infestation. I have been to several different doctors over the years trying to figure things out and I don't want to go into the nasty details but I'm fairly certain (knew for a long time but tried to deny it). Whether this will do anything or not, I don't know but I've got to give it a try. It's not expensive and I've also studied herbs for the past 14 years and if the herbs listed are quality and harvested at the correct time, this product should work for cleansing parasites. I've also been drinking lemon water... lemon juice, water, and splenda. I drank it all the time as a child, that was our 'lemonade' instead of this powdered crap that you buy today.
Thanks again, it's good to know that others are also doing the GI thing. I screwed up last night (my place of employment is killing me
) and had a couple chocolate chip cookies but it's not something that I'm going to do everyday. I can resist everything but temptation
You're probably right about the parasite cleanse. I'll let you know in three weeks. The product I chose was Parastroy which is inexpensive but looks to contain the appropriate herbs and includes enzymes, etc. Of course, if they're all low quality or old or processed incorrectly, then it's all in vane. I've used herbs for allot of different things over the years and I'm a huge advocate of intelligently, knowledgeably, and carefully seeking natural alternatives to medications when possible. I use grapefruit seed extract when I or my kids begin to get ill (works AWESOME!!!!). Periodically, when there is something going around, I add home-made Echinecea extract to my morning coffee (yeah... coffee's bad for me.... it's on my list of nasty habits to work on
). When there's a bout of head-lice at school (I work with kids too), I add a little tea tree oil to our shampoo... also works great with dandruff and scalp itch. Before moving to this home, we had over 50 varieties of herbs in our garden (now rebuilding). So anyway, this seems a natural approach for me to try to remedy this very aggravating health issue... if I lost any weight from it, it would merely be an extra bonus it is most definitely not what prompted me to try it. Too bad I couldn't gather the herbs myself to assure their quality
And you know that if this doesn't work, more herbs are on my list to play with... no more doctors... I'm done paying ridiculous amounts of money and seeing no results. So anyway, a healthy diet and some healthy added herbs couldn't hurt. If I wasted my money, it wouldn't be the first time.
