2007-12-18 12:12 PM Nature's Little Helpers Previous Entry :: Next Entry Read/Post Comments (1) I love my naturopathic physician. She is so practical and yet so intuitive. And I always get a hug before I leave.
My gut has been plagued by an indiscreet bug of some kind for three weeks. My insurance is now fairly sparse with a killer deductible, so I'm not going to the doctor willy-nilly. But three weeks is too long so I went. We're ruling out parasites and bacteria; if it's a rotovirus it could last another three weeks. There has been some small improvement, but until I'm all better, I get to: - take three stool samples. The jars are cute. (Hey, I had to find something positive to say.) - drink white miso soup every other day. I like miso soup. - boost electrolytes by drinking tea with honey, beef broth, and chicken broth. - take three acidophilus capsules twice daily. - drink a tablespoon of slippery elm powder in a beverage once a day. Don'tcha wish you were me? Actually I don't mind all this if it makes me better. I'm glad I have these options before downing a ton of Prilosec or something even worse for me. Homeopathy is worth trying. And, to top it all off, my doctor said I seemed so much more calm than I had in my teaching life, her confirmation that I have chosen a better way for my life Read/Post Comments (1) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
