Herbs and Supplements

Hi,
A good source of information about herbs and supplements. I hope this isn't a double post. This is the first time I am starting one.

herbs and supplements

Hi,
You are very welcome Mary Jo. I have seen various comments and questions regarding individual herbs and supplements, so I thought I would post a couple sources where people could go and get their questions and concerns about supplements addressed. Here is another one.
http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/b...cer-002408.htm
If anyone has other sources of information about this topic please contribute.
Thanks

Since we're on the topic of alternative medicine here are two links to sites that I've used as a reference about medical conditions and supplements.

http://healthnotes.deliciouslivingmag.com/

In the healthy.net website there are various health conditions discussed along with treatment written by many different authors & opinions. I wouldn't read the Herceptin articles under breast cancer because obviously it's biased (in my opinion) but it does give good recommendations on supplements etc.

Herbs and Supplements

Hi,
Thanks Liz. Those sites look very interesting. They certainly have alot of information to offer. Herceptin has worked for me for almost 8 years and is still working according to both my oncologist and my naturopathic physician.
