I'm a raw vegan and still suffering from acne. I stay away from all sweeteners, except fresh whole fruits. I started to have lots of greens juices these days, and my skin has improved a little bit. What about spices such a cayenne pepper, is it bad for your skin? What about goji berries? I know they are diet fruits, that's why I stay away from them for a while. I even fast for a while. I just don't know how my skin can get better.

Greetings! Have you detoxed (Full Body Cleanse)? Acne is a blood disorder. Please read our article "Skin Disorder = Blood Disorder" for more information. Our Healing Facial Kit will be out later this month. Stay positive! Don't focus so much on the problem. Use visualization techniques, and see yourself as you desire to see yourself, with flawless skin.

I have recently been researching your information on herpes! And the info on here is powerful. I noticed a lot of writings about what women do to contract herpes. Such as one night stands, cheating for revenge, or trusting to soon. Thanks to you, I know all about what a woman must do mentally and emotionally to cleanse herself. What about the men they contract it from? What contracts have they signed up for? What is the spiritual cause for herpes in men? I love the info, but I feel the approach could be more balanced, due to this disease impacting both sexes differently.

An article will be done! Basically, men too contract HSV for the same reasons are women. The energy behind the disease is the same - sexual imbalance. "Getting Rid of Herpes: The Best Natural Remedies", "Herpes (HSV1 & HSV2)", "Oral Herpes".

I have a question concerning whether paid employment affects the quality of our lives and health. If you have a consulting, or airline job where you have to fly on a weekly basis for work, can that negatively affect your health and well being? If your short term choice is to keep working the job, what herbs can you prescribe to help one cope and manage the lifestyle especially if one is tired of the travel lifestyle? Thank you very much for the much needed informative site!

Travel lifestyle will greatly affect your health because excessive traveling throws off your circadian rhythm. Jet lag is when the plane has landed on the physical ground but your ethereal self is still up in the sky and so you are not all there so to speak. Stay tuned for our article on "Jet Lag". Dherbs.com formulas that can assist in counteracting jet lag include: Nerve Formula, (and/or Tea) and Ethereal Bliss. Dherbs.com - Tell 10 people about us!!!!

I went to the O.B.G.Y.N for a check up, and I was prescribed Metrogel for a bacteria infection. After I finished, my vagina felt as if it was on fire. I brought a 3 day Monistat, now the section where the pubic hairs are, is dry and itchy. I've tried Hydrocortisone, vaginal Vaseline, and gold bond medicated powder. Please help me! I have an appointment with the doctors tomorrow but I wanted to know what you suggest.

Greetings! You're using toxins and poisons and are expecting positive results. Not gonna happen, Beloved! You must cleanse from the inside out. Perform the Full Body Cleanse, Sea Salt Soak (visit ARTICLES section on our site and you'll find this article), and rub Face and Body Oil on the damaged skin area instead of all that pharmaceutical crap. Also, from time to time dab some cold aloe vera gel on your vaginal area to help cool it down. Drink unsweetened Cranberry juice diluted with water (half and half). Drink Female Health Tea while detoxing. Drink vegetable juice daily. This is how you heal from your condition, Beloved.

How long does it take for Gingko Biloba to start thinning the blood for those who want to get off of blood thinners? My friend is on blood thinners. He would like to make the switch, but fear the Gingko Biloba may not work fast enough in case of a blood clot, or heart attack occurring. Can he start taking the both for maybe 2 or three days then completely get off the thinners?

The person perhaps shouldn't even consider Gingko due to the fear which is damnable. When people are in fear I usually tell them to do what makes them feel good, and remove the fear because if a person does something in the face of fear and a bad reaction occurs, the fear won't get the blame. The herb or other natural thing will. However, for blood thinning effects of Gingko Biloba, take 9-12 capsules throughout the day, i.e. 3 capsules every 3-4 hours.

I went to my doctor after my Bartholin's Gland got swollen and he did the Bartholin's Gland surgery. He found out during the surgery, I had a blood clot in my Bartholin's Gland. He is not sure how it happen. I got scared and began searching on the internet for vagina blood clot and found your site. I would like to know what you could recommend that would help me with this situation? I would like to do the The Female Cleanse, but it is too expensive. I also wanted the Yoni and Blood Lymphatic formulas, and those are not included. Could you please suggest a few product in a cleanse system that would help my situation? I would like the cleanse to include the Yoni, Blood and Lymphatics, and colon cleanse. Thanks!

You could simply order and take 3 capsules of the Yoni, Blood and Lymphatic, and Colon & Digestive Tract. These formulas will greatly help you!

First of all I just wanted to thank you so much for enlightening me. I have become a devoted reader daily, for the last 6 months. I have become vegetarian and almost vegan. I eat very little dairy by products such as salad dressing, etc. I personally want to thank you for the knowledge that you have shared with us. I had my gallbladder removed about 16 years ago, and I was reading the article on High Cholesterol, and I have a question. Since I do not have a storage place for stomach bile what dangers can come about with the bile just circulating in my body? When I was unconscious I never though about not having my gallbladder. The doctor said you have gallstones, and you need your gallbladder taken out. I did not ask any questions, due to my ignorance and enormous cramp like pains. At times, I wonder if the bile which has an acid taste is eating away at my organs. Please forgive my ignorance, but my mind wonders. So is there a herb that I can take that will do what my lack of gallbladder should do?

Thank you for your words! I'd suggest you perform the Full Body Cleanse and after completion of the cleanse start taking the Liver-Gallbladder-Spleen formula. Bile is alkaline so it's not that bad. However, the bile should not be circulating in your blood.

I have a niece with Lupus and the doctors have gave up on her. They say its affecting her brain, kidneys, and liver. Is their anything that can be done to turn this around? She's only 8 years old.

There's always something you can do. First of all, read the information in the LUPUS article, and get informed on this health challenge. Because she's 8 she'd fare well with the Children's Detox.

I have used MSM Sulfur, and recommended it to a friend because it worked wonders for me. It seemed to have worked quickly. If a person is allergic to sulfur, what else would be beneficial for them for Arthritis?

MSM Sulfur is not pharmaceutical grade sulfur which is toxic to the skin! Many people unjustly give MSM Sulfur a bad rap for sulfur oxide!

What is Red Yeast Rice Supplements good for? Does Red Yeast Rice help with Cholesterol Levels to lower them?

I don't know, Beloved! I haven't studied this products. I'm really only into herbs.

I am a 32 year old African American woman. I am noticing that my body is changing overnight. I lost my mother in 2005, and since then I have been diagnosed with being clinically depressed. I was prescribed something that I did not even fill. I contacted the pharmacy to ask a few questions, and yes the pharmacist referred me to your website. I was able to grab some vitamin B 100 complex and that has helped me tremendously. I am calm, my anxiety level down is way down. I don't respond like I used to. Kinda just let things go all of a sudden, I am at peace. Okay! Do I need to cleanse? I have other issues as well. I really can't afford The Female Cleanse. However, can I start on some tea, and maybe a less costly herbal pill? I also experience bad cramps monthly, and my hair is thinning.

Greetings! Very interesting that a pharmacist would recommend someone to our site. However, I am thankful to this pharmacist. I wonder if I know the person, as I know a few pharmacists. Good to hear those results pertaining to depression! Hair is thinning: Order and drink 1-2 cups of Hair Skin Nails Tea daily. Menstrual complaints: order and drink 1-3 cups of Menstrual Cycle Tea daily. I'd also recommend our Detox Tea.
