I am very much for natural cures. I am more for that than pharmaceuticals. However, it always concerns me when someone takes a subject and suggests they are an authority because they have read a few books and were delivered from addiction.
I am for natural cures also -when actually effective..... mainly because they are cheaper! But the same ingredients in "natural" cures are often the same in pharmaceutical, just in much lower (and often ineffective and COMPLETELY unregulated) doses. Don't get me started on Saint Johns Wort and Ginko......

I want you to. Let's hear it!

I agree with him too. Well, I should be more careful about that. lol But I'm pretty sure I agree with what he'd say.

God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ. ~Romans 3:24 from The Message

SJW shouldn't be taken by anyone who takes any other medication at all!! It's is contraindicated with most other medications.

Right, it's a pretty interesting herb...NOT AT ALL what it's marketed as. It really should be used under the care of a qualified herbalist/ND/MD only.
That said, it is a fascinating herb to study. There are a few others that are enigmas like SJW is, I love studying them.

I tried SJW for a while and, fortunately knew it can cause heart palpitations, because when I took it that's what it did to me!
We take a lot of supplements here. My husband is taking niacin for high cholesterol, for example. But, people need to really read and know what they are doing. When my husband started flushing, I was at least able to tell him right away that he was flushing and that it was a good thing.
Doctors know very little about nutrition which is why I think that people need a balanced and self-educated approach to health.

I think it's a good thing if every woman can teach her man how to flush!
Of course, the Bible says that women are not to teach the man, but I still think it's a good thing!!!
