Many years ago after suffering with an acute bout of severe arthritic pain and with terrible side effects from the use of prescribed medications, I was discouraged with my health.
A good friend introduced me to an herbalist and after a few consultations with suggestions to change my diet to eating more healthy, and to eliminate a few detrimental habits (smoking, drinking too much coffee) I, soon started to feel much better.
This started my interest of the importance of natural nutrition. I was also amazed by the results from the use of herbs and supplements.
I would like to share with you two of my favourite quotes, the first one is:
’’Let your Food be your medicine and your medicine your Food.’’ ~Hippocrates”
The second quote:
’’The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human body, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease. “~Thomas Edison~
You are what you eat like the old saying goes, and may I add also what does not come out.
This site will provide you with nutritional values found in natural foods, fruits and vegetables with special focus on herbs and supplements. Good health starts with a well balanced diet.
I will also give you tips on how to make homemade cough syrup with ingredients found in your kitchen, what to gargle with when you have a sore throat, and what stops the spasms of the stomach when one is sick and vomiting.
Of course just because it’s natural does not mean that it cannot harm you. And just as with any prescription medication, there are certain precautions you should take.
Look for warning signs, contraindications and side effects of every herb or supplement before taking it. If you do get a particular side effect, such as nausea, vomiting, or a headache, lower the dose or stop taking it.
Have a healthy day!
All the best!
Mike Larocque
