I quit taking all over the counter and prescription medicines because they do more harm than good. I was looking at some chinese herbs on www.plantcures.com and found HE SHOU WU which is suppose to help the endocrine system. Soon as I get it and consult with my holistic doc I'll let you know how it works out.; ▶ Reply to This

We need the natural fats, like those in whole cream cheese, cottage cheese, whole milk, whole cream, cheeses. Organic, best raw have many nutrients in them we can use. Sounds crazy, but true.; ▶ Reply to This

Ingredients are: Pasteurized (I know, I know) milk and cream, cheese cultures, salt, stabilizers (carob and/or guar gums). Total carb 1g, sugars less than 1 g, protein 2g.
What does the Philly one say?
With dairy, mostly I look for rBST free. The label says, "our cows just say nooooo", haha! I eat the raw when I can order from the farm.; ▶ Reply to This

Also, if the pancreas is failing it is more than likely invaded with the fluke parasite and a parasite cleanse would be a good idea.; ▶ Reply to This
