The Natural Way?

Hello All:

So since I know that I can't be the only person who prefers natural products vs meds, please share what you take regularly to address issues you may have with your body....!
Look forward to hearing from all of you!

Re: The Natural Way?

The only natural product I take these days is Kalms one a night, which have valerian to help me sleep if I have insomnia. They don't work on everyone but they really help me. I also drink some herbal tea or make a natural cough remedy from lemon and honey.

I have tried various other natural products in the past but they have either not done a thing or have caused more harm than good.

Re: The Natural Way?

Whilst I eat a very healthy diet I take a vitamin c and multivitamin supplement to help aid my immune system.

I exercise daily to help ward off anxiety

I use turmeric often as it has great health benefits

I eat lots of spinach which is another good with high health benefits

Re: The Natural Way?

I would like to try turmeric but does it stain the teeth?

Re: The Natural Way?

Hasn't affected my teeth.

Re: The Natural Way?

I tried turmeric milk but it made me feel unwell. Milk with cardamom pods is really comforting and aids sleep. (you take the pods out after boiling).

Re: The Natural Way?

I take a ginger capsule every day as an anti inflammatory.

When you get to our age Muddy, how would you know?...



It just makes your tongue go a funny colour for a while, and it does stain everything else....Tea towels, dishcloths and bowls..

You could go to a Polish shop and pay about three quid for a great big bag, or you could go to 'Holland and Barrett' and pay a fiver for a spoonful.....The active ingredient in the Termeric is Cumin...(no really!) and you can buy the one a day tablets from some places, but they are very expensive.... So you have to ask yourself....How much is a pink tongue and clean tea towel worth?

I've been dropping a teaspoon full in the pan while cooking my porridge every morning Muddy, and my teeth are still as white as Donny Osmonds....

Re: The Natural Way?

I love turmeric - use it a lot in soups/stews/curries etc., Never thought of adding it to porridge, Foxy, will have to give that a try!
