For year's I found myself in the stirrups at the gynecologists, always with problem and never with an answer. The doctor would tell my mother that it was all in my head. My first period was a rare condition were I bled for a month and a half. I was on the pill in sixth grade to help stop the bleeding. My years to come of "bad periods", cramps, and doubling over in pain didn't seem to make the doctors flinch. Of course today, there are names for what women suffer monthly, PMS, Endometriosis, and fibroids among others. Sadly the medical community chiefly run by men, is ill aware of a woman's problems and even to this day will intervene with experimental drugs, tests, and surgery. I have learned that the AMA has not taken into effect the possibility that balance of a woman's hormones, her physical metabolism and her natural levels of progesterone can be adjusted naturally. I believe that the body is self regulating and has all the abilities to heal itself and clear out conditions as needed. The thing that stops it is "constipation". No, not just constipation in the way we all know it, but the constipation of the body and it's organs with built up toxins. I will explain this a later. In the 1980's I was sick, diagnosed with "Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Endometriosis, I felt as if I were dying and they couldn't do anything about it. It was then that I found about bowel cleansing, candida, parasites and nutrition. My years of study with herbs were now going to be of use, because I had to heal myself. I remember handing my retail store over to a friend because I couldn't leave the toilet. I first changed my diet, followed the "Candida diet" and eliminated fats, sauces, breads, carbohydrates and just about everything but vegetables, meat and soy products. It was a great way to find out what foods may have caused allergies and kept the yeast (candida) from growing. I then found out that I had to rid the parasites (yeast included) from my body to feel better. I used an herbal regime of herbal pumpkin, Psyllium powder (Metameucil), garlic, "Bowel Build" (my favorite Product) which includes: Activated Charcoal, to eliminate toxins, Cascara sagrada and Psyllium to clean out waste, apple pectin, bentonite clay, Marshmallow root, parthenium root, ginger, A, B, C, zinc and Selenium. This made me feel great and I started having 5 to even 10 bowel movements a day! I was getting rid of the years of built up waste that was daily toxifying me. You see, the bowels are lined with years of a rubbery like toxic build up that is re absorbed into the bloodstream every day. When we are actually constipated (not having 2 to 3 bm's a day) our liver cannot release it's toxins into the colon so the organs (gallbladder,kidney, spleen,lungs, epidermis, and even ovaries) will become sick from the toxins. We will see it as a skin rash, a cough, or even cancer. The body needs to stay clean, eat nutritious foods, and get plenty of essential vitamins and minerals from those foods or supplements. The body stops functioning properly when it is overwrought, unclean, and malnourished. That is all, it is that simple. Many people will yell, "but I have a condition, and it is the condition that is keeping me from this or that, I am not responsible for it". No one is to blame, but we are responsible for our conditions. Have you ever heard "we are what we eat, and create our own health"? I have found this to be true. And by the way. I believe there are no "incurables". You have to understand that if I heard these words from someone years ago, they would have gone in one ear and out the other, because I didn't get it. And it seemed so like a health food nut to say eat better and you will feel better. But I found out that I was sick inside and was gradually clogging up every system that I depended on to live. First my periods, then digestive problems, then bowel problems, then skin problems, then pain all the time with no answer. When I changed my diet and cleaned out everything changed. After all the cleaning education and I was taking bowel build everyday, I started taking FC with Dong Quai to regulate my period and pain. What a difference it made! It was after a couple of months that I realized that my periods were wonderful. No pain, no cramps, and regular. So another problem out of the way. Except no pregnancy. I then learned about flower essences and how they work with the emotional body. I worked with bach flower remedies and herbal tinctures. I worked on anger issues. Who knew, such a nice girl would have unfinished issues from the past? Then I started learning about muscle testing also known as Kinesiology. My sessions would focus on different issues each time and each session a herbal plan was laid out to address those issues. For example, through muscle testing I would find out that my stomach was in a weak condition and I needed food enzymes to help break down foods. The results were always right on. So after months of repairing and rebuilding by body to the super woman that I became, we decided to look at the pregnancy issue. It was tested, for me, that "X-A", a supplement usually for men at that time would help raise my estrogen levels and desire for sex. I also added through my research, folic acid, vitamin E with Selenium, False Unicorn , Red Raspberry , and Blessed Thistle. My results were very surprising. I felt the X-A immediately as a great energy boost. I found that I couldn't take it right before bed or I wouldn't sleep. To our surprise, we got pregnant with two weeks! That's right, at 33 years of age and my husband at 44, we finally got pregnant. Oh, I forgot to tell you about the hell I went through with testing , laporoscopies and doctor appointments, but I'm sure you all had your own stories for that. I don't like to reminisce. I don't feel that my way is the only way for every woman, we all have different conditions of health. but I do feelthat given the right tools and right direction, we can heal anything.
