What kind of alternative medicine do you swear by?

yessssss, I had uvulitis and the only thing that brought relief and some natural healing was acv mixed with sea salt gargles. ginger for throat problems too. amazing

good to drink it with a straw because it's really bad for your teeth

ACV is the only thing that gets rid of sinus infections when I get them. Antibiotics don't do crap.

yess!

Does 5-HTP ever make you feel funny? I've been taking it at night...

what is it

where can i get the cbd hemp oil pills

thats interesting I need to try that

I’ve never tried acupuncture but I do love when my physical therapist does deep tissue massage and I can’t remember what he calls the other one it really helps me get relief with my legs, hip and back pain.

how long have you been doing it?

hi. I have been thinking maybe acupuncture wouldn't be so bad. I have major problems with my neck and neck. I'm going to try it. Does it really hurt??

yess so true I do an acupressure mat

can you get that for a tbi

what she said

I support this

same!

I wish I had that option

that is my go to as well

yeesss...

nice

never heard of it sounds interesting

I've never thought of doing that before but I do have a cold face mask that I use sometimes when I get a migraine

yesss

yesss

so true

yesss

yesss

that's my go too as well

Absolutely...My life has changed since I've done this.. went of all my meds but 1. Lost weight and have hope for the first time in many years.

I tried LDN and felt horrible. I wasn’t in a place to where I could feel that bad so I stopped. I’ve thought about trying again now that I have more control over my schedule. How long did it take you either to get over the initial symptoms if you had any and/or to feel improvement from LDN?

my Dr just rx low dose naltrexone, haven't started yet cuz my pharmacy doesn't compound. But it's good to know it's working for you

nah fam, that is not good for you to ingest, or whatever

yesss

what is bioresonance

100% agreed!!!

I have been looking into this, how do you use it? How has it helped? Where do you get it from a reputable source?

yess

yesss

when I was living in Maine that's what I was doing. If I wasn't getting actually pain relief I was stoned and didn't care

how do u take it? Like is it a pill form? What mg? And what brand do u use? I overdosed nine months ago and my mental is horrible, anything that can help restore my brain to the way it was would be great

Thank you!!!

what is crystal healing? How do u do it and where do u get the stuff to do it?

what is kratom?? Where do u get it and how do u use it?

great idea!!! This is next level hopefully! What do we have to do to get insurance to cover it faster? Petition?

first I have to get Kansas to legalize it! Still can't use it even medicinally. Sucks!

what brand coconut oil do u use? How do u use it? Does it help with wrinkles?

nice

what is a delta 8 hybrid pen??

that causes my meds to build up in my system & I become psychotic... No med interaction issues w weed tho 🤗

different things work for everyone, and some things considered by some to be in the alt medicine category are actually backed by multiple studies. :) like Sweet Mary Jane

sometimes there just isnt enough motivation to do studies. Who does studies to determine the efficacy of different medicines? Largely, pharmaceutical companies. Now if Im a pharma company, what am I going to do if I discover that dandelion tea has promising anti inflammatory properties? Make a pill from it that I can sell and never tell people where I got that property in my pill from. Every pharmaceutical drug is made and derived from plants, minerals, animals, and other things found in the natural world. Alt medicine is about finding the plants/minerals/etc that pharmaceutical medications are derived from and using them in their unprocessed state. Its like eating whole foods instead of processed foods. The pill is more pure and therefore, often more effective because of its processing, but the natural stuff still has value, especially when you are unable to afford the pills, but you can go to a field down the street and pick a bunch of dandelions. I would NEVER advocate a person use alt medicine in place of medicine that is backed by peer review and well conducted scientific study. Ever. Science first. BUT As a person with pretty severe chronic pain, I can speak confidently that many "alt medicines" DO have value. Marijuana- good for pain, insomnia, nausea, appetite stimulation, stress, and a myriad of other stuff. Best jack of all trades medicine on Earth. This is the hill I die on. Hot epsom salt bath- good for its anti inflammatory and muscle relaxing properties. Ginger root- the number 1 prescribed anti nausea in recorded history. Also, I can't remember for sure, fact check me, but I *think* has anti inflammatory properties as well. People have been using ginger as medicine forever. Verified treatments from qualified medical professionals will always take priority for me too. But please don't completely dismiss the medicines found in their natural and unprocessed forms. Sometimes they're the only medicines people have access to because they can be found or grown in your own backyard. Pills are expensive.

yesss

chaga is so good for inflammation

what is it called?

nice

I used to use valerian capsules for sleep, as I got older it didn't work anymore even when I doubled the dose
