Re: Why i take supplements
Hi Kathy. So glad you found this! Saved my life! Literally...
We need to fight back against Assembly Line Medicine. Integrative Oncology is the answer.
I used Dr. Mitchell Gaynor in NYC. He alters the lives of 4th stagers. Boosts their immune systems and gets you firing on all cylinders. Supplements help create miracles, my Sisters!
Wish I could remember the ones in Cali I came upon over the yrs, Fern/Waterdreamer. If you PM SoCal Girl she might recall. I e'd her all the info at the time. Searched through my piles and checked my puter files, such as they are, and can't come across them. If I do, I will alert you, and any and all who are interested. Just keep googling, or goggling as I like to say. The ones I came upon I actually contacted, out of curiosity. One guy was so on my page I wished I could meet him!
Listen to your Inner Voice ladies. Not the voice in your head. It can be so negative. But your Spirit, your Guardian Angel has eons of wisdom and totally adores you. That sacred entity will guide and protect you. You can trust that Voice!
I would advise y'all to search around, ask around, network. You can come upon some great alternative care pp.

I do NOT take iodine, KK. It kind of scares me. Though Rachael on this board is very knowledgeable re this.
