My son has recurring eczema. When it flares up it gets really bad and needs all kinds of soothing/moisturizing balms and anti-itch creams. He also has a recurring cough...He had mild bronchitis at the age of 2 and now at the age of 4 he gets a cough every other month or so. What remedies can I use to rid him of the eczema and coughing (outside of a general cold) for good?

I am breastfeeding a 3-month-old baby girl and have severe constipation. I may go a week without a bowel movement. This is not normal and very painful. When I do finally go, it is very hard stool. What is safe for me, and my child to help alleviate the problem without losing my milk supply?

A laxative will not impair your milk supply. Try our Bowel Motion and/or Colon & Digestive Tract.

In order to do the Full Body Cleanse, is this a product that I should contact my doctor before using?

Herbs (Full Body Cleanse) are food and so the question is, would you contact your doctor before eating an apple, a salad, or banana?

I REALLY like your site and products, I have bought teas and your Full Body Cleanse so far... I have been trying to explain to my girlfriend that prescriptions are NOT the answer and that there is always an alternative to taking legalized drugs (medications) The question: We both have Genital Herpes, though since I did the Full Body Cleanse, and have been drinking the ANTI-VIRAL TEA I haven't had any symptoms... My question is, my girlfriend is 7 months pregnant and I want to know if it is OK for her to drink the ANTI-VIRAL TEA? I've notice that your other teas either say OK to drink while pregnant or NOT OK to drink while pregnant and or lactating... But your Anti-Viral tea doesn't say either ... If you could email me back and let me know if she can drink it or not I would appreciate it, as she wants to go get a prescription and that's the LAST thing I want her to do being pregnant and all...

Yes, a pregnant woman may drink Anti-V Tea!

How do you feel about marijuana as a whole, as well as during the Full Body Cleanse?

Read article "The Blunt Facts On Marijuana" and ""Frequently Asked Questions".

What is up with Beta Sitosterol? Is it safe? Is it effective? It also claims that it helps the sex organs.

Beta Sitosterol is derived from botanicals that are suspect, i.e. corn oil, soybean, and other unhealthy oils. Corn and Soy oil rank in the top 4 worst oils to use and consume. Beta Sitosterol is isolated from a plant and thus a Franken-food. I'd choose Saw Palmetto Berry any day over Beta Sitosterol. Help the sex organs? Highly doubtful. Since when has corn or soybean oil helped sexual function?
