Hi again, I'd like to keep the ball rolling on this forum, hence my many subjects. Also, as there is no forum dedicated to women's health in general, this might be a good place to discuss those subjects.
First, I'd like to ask those of you who are doing a Bowel Cleanse if you noticed anything different about your periods? more pain, less pain, less clotting, longer, shorter? I stopped taking IF #1 and #2 for about 3 weeks and felt more discomfort than when I was doing the bowel cleanse.
Secondly, I was interested in what Julia Chang (see her site) had to say about phytoestrogenic herbs and foods, i.e. how they may aggravate endo and other excessive estrogenic conditions (cysts, fibroids). She at first felt good for about a month taking such herbs, but then worse, until she cleaned her liver. This is interesting because a friend of mine with endo took Olive Leaf (why I'm not sure but it must have been for the endo) and says that she felt great for 2 months then became very ill with very low blood pressure (I've read that Olive Leaf can lower blood pressure) and a burning feeling in her veins, which may be a condition called vascularitis (the walls of the veins eventually wear thin till they burst). Anyone out there who may know more about this? My friend now does not want to engage in conversations about herbs (or alt med) with me as she blames her condition on the Olive Leaf.
I've read on another forum that pineapple helps with implantation. Looks like I'll be eating a lot of pineapple from day 14. Hope that helps someone.
Bye,
Liza

I believe a good solution to women's health and for that matter, any individual's health is a good quality probiotic that will put the digestive system in good order. Furthermore, probiotics is almost like the body's second immune system and "prevention" is the key word!
It really does not matter what food or nutrition that you take if your digestive system cannot absorb the nutrition. According to the British medical association, 95% of all chronic illnesses are caused by an unhealthy digestive system and infestation by harmful and pathogenic bacteria.

This is a reply to # 66,245Thanx Richard for your message. I do believe probiotics are very important for prevention, however, if, for whatever reasons you find yourself seriously ill, as I did and many others who read these forums, taking probiotics may be only partially the solution. I had been taking them after my illnesses, but detoxing (bowel,liver, body brushing, hot cold showers, juicing) is what has really helped me and restored (rejuvenated I would say) my system. I will probably take some probiotics now to help things along.
All the Best,

This is a reply to # 66,246Hey Liza, remember me from the Dr.Schulze's forum? Anyway girl I suggest you might want to check out another site, its the reason
why I even got interested in this olive leaf extract, tis at
http://www.learnhealth.org/articles/Testimonies&Case-histories.htm
its "Jackie's testimony-Immune boosting". I would be very curious
to see what you as well as anyone else out there thinks of it, as
I'm reading so much different info around, I d like other comments.
Thanks a million, Elaina- Re: Ah them Olive leafs Liza

This is a reply to # 66,247Hi Elaina,
Thanks for your post! I've gone to the site and read her testimony. It sounds positive. It is probably best to take herbs in a tincture form made yourself or from an experienced herbalist, as you never know what's in the stuff you buy from a shop (my herbalist has warned me about extracted forms). My friend got hers from GNC. I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with it, just that you may not know exactly what's in there or how you may react. She may have had a bad reaction because her liver couldn't handle it. Unfortunately, I can't broach the subject (i.e. Liver Cleansing) with her. Her condition (if she really has it) is a very serious one (your veins burst and eventually you die slowly).
At the moment I'm having a terrible sore throat with laryngitis, which is very unusual for me. I've been taking some echinecea tincture straight but so far with no effect (but I had to miss taking it this weekend). It worked last time I had this though, which was last month, but this gets me on the subject of hot and cold showering so I'll leave that for now.
Take care,

This has nothing to do with this forum about Infertility, but you mentioned that you currently have laryngitis and sore throat. Just an experinece we've had concerning this: My daughter gets bronchitis a couple times a year and we give her Dr. Schulze 's formula's: Enchinacea PLUS (with garlic), Herbal Antibiotic, Milk Thisle and Dr. Christopher's Bronchitis formula. All in tincture form and purchased through healmarketplace.com. These work WONDERS for her and she gets well really fast. Just wanted to tell you what WE do to give you an idea!

This is a reply to # 66,244Hi, Liza. I have been taking Julia Chang's herbs and following her dietary advice for almost a year (including apple juice fast). I think the Chinese Bitters are helpful for my energy level, and general liver health, but the Liver Flushes were only helpful for a few weeks at a time. From the info I've seen on this site, I now know that I have to take care of parasites first. Unfortunately, her advice did not help me with menstrual pain or infertility. I found out that I have an immune problem that is causing my problem conceiving. I read on another forum (? parasite board) that the Bitters are helpful to take prior to the liver flush. Hope this is helpful, and good luck!

This is a reply to # 66,270Thanks Toastieoat and deedee for your advice!
my sore throats seem to have gone away for now (I think some of it had to do with chilling myself after hot/cold showers) but, yeah, I tried Dr Schultze's Echinacea formula when visiting my family in the US and it does pack a whallop.
I was very interested to here about your experience with Julia Chang's herbs, deedee. I'm thinking of trying traditional chinese herbal medicine soon. I'm afraid I don't know very much about the immunity aspect of infertility, but have heard that improving endo or infections could help. Some other advice I've heard is not try to conceive for a few months, during which you detox and eliminate allergens, then have a first go just as you ovulate. Best wishes in your journey to conceiving.

This is a reply to # 66,270Hi Deedee,
Ihave endo, and I personally think you have to do the Dr. Hulda Clark parasite cleanse,then the one dose Q10 to mop up the final stages.Then the bowel,kidney and liver cleanse in that order.At the same time as this trying to follow a diet similar to a candida diet.
Then start a Strict candida diet alongside some light exercise and Julia Changs liver herbs,also take the vitamins and Pau'D Arco (lapacho) which she suggests.This should get rid of any candida in your system.Do her Liver Cleanses as well.
After a few months on this you can start to relax the diet etc and your body just has to then go through a maintenance programme every so often.It sounds longwinded,obviously you take your time and ease your body into each stage,as herbs have side affects to especially the parasite programme ones.
I hope this helps you.Take Care
