My hair has been falling out in patches for the past few years. At first they said it was eczema, next they said that I had psoriasis on my scalp and last they want to test me for lupus. I will not take the test but my scalp really looks bad. I have several balding areas on my head like parasites are eating my hair off. Do you have any recommendations? I have also noticed hair loss in other ares of my body (legs and private parts). Thanks in advance.

Read the "Hair Problems" article but as well as our new "Skin Disorder = Blood Disorder" article (due out next week) to understand that your condition is one of toxic blood. Perform the Full Body Cleanse (perhaps back to back). Use natural shampoos and conditioners (purchase our Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual (EBook) for a listing of healthy brands). Consider a radical diet and lifestyle change. There's much you need to do, but the most important thing is to educate yourself and you can do that by reading many of our health articles for a general overview of health and what you need to do to heal on all levels.

Contained in one of the articles featured on this website is a statement that consumption of dairy products produces fibroid tumors in African American women. My question is: by eliminating all dairy products from one's diet, will that cause the tumors to shrink?

No ... It will only keep the tumors from enlarging! This will keep the tumors at bay! Please read some more articles on Dairy.

Is there anything that will slow the progress of early onset dementia? My brother has been diagnosed at age 54 as having the brain of a 84 year old man, via a MRI. His doctor said Ariset would not help him as the white matter of his brain has covered the front and back of his brain

For dementia, I recommend Nerve Formula, Central Nervous System formula, and Brain Booster.

Perform the Full Body Cleanse for starters. Do this first!

I am a 48 year old female, 75 pounds overweight with high blood pressure. I need to know how I get started. Will the herbs react to my medications?

You start by performing the Full Body Cleanse. The Detox will affect your medication because your medication is poison and herbs work against poison.

How often do you use the Full Body Cleanse? Why no meat and cooked foods?

It's ideal to detox every seasonal change (every 3 months). Meat and cooked foods pollute the body so we advise not to eat them while UN-polluting the body.

If I decided to do the Full Body Cleanse should I continue to take my blood pressure medicine?

That's your choice to continue to take medication but I'll say this: medication is poisonous and does not help the body to heal. It's impossible! Food (herbs) is our medicine as human beings. Please read "Can I Take Medication With My Herbs?", "Herbs vs. Pharmaceutical Drugs".

I just found out that my fiance and I are expecting. I have been using the Bowel Motion supplement and was wondering if that is safe to continuing taking (possibly 1 capsule per day) while pregnant. I'm currently dealing with a naturopathic physician to receive other natural supplements. Thanks for your help!

It is safe to take 1 capsules of Bowel Motion daily while pregnant.

I'm 37 with a 17 yr. old son. It's been that long since I've used a birth control other than condoms which are beginning to irritate me. I've been reading about your Herbal Contraception and would like to know how many bottles of the Herbal Contraception is needed to have a full effect without the chances of becoming pregnant?

You take the formula monthly (7 capsules daily). You'll need 2 bottles (as 2 bottles = 12 weeks). One bottle lasts 6 weeks! To start, you'll need to take religiously for 7 weeks with no sex or protection.

Before purchasing the Full Body Cleanse, can you tell me what raw vegetables and fruits are required on the program for eating?

Is clay water good for the body system? I've been told that it has minerals that the body needs. Is this true?

Clay water is good to drink for health purposes. It really doesn't have minerals for absorption as it mostly pulls harmful elements from your body. For minerals, take herbs.

I just happened to come across your Oxy-Oil. I was reading the fact that it can heal all skin conditions. What about the skin condition of keratosis pilaris: the condition in which there are little small black spots like moles on the back of your thighs? Can this Oxy-Oil eliminate this?

Go with the Face and Body Oil. It's more therapeutic than Oxy-Oil.

I am a 24 year old African American female. I have a younger sister who is 17. She has had health issues every since I can remember. As a baby she had asthma but grew out of it. She has also suffered from allergies to things such as pollen and ragweed as well. But at the age of 9 she woke up one morning totally unable to move and her joints appeared swollen and red. She has never been diagnosed with anything but the symptoms have been treated with an array of different drugs. As time progressed she would randomly continue to get joint swelling and stiffness in her arms legs and hips. Doctors have tested her for lupus and arthritis and test results still say she has none of the above. She suffers also from periodic urinary tract infections, ulcerations of the mouth and fatigue. She recently was told that she was suffering also from a stomach emptying disorder and her body was having a difficult time absorbing nutrients. Just this week she had extreme pain in her upper abdomen and the doctor said it was an enlarged spleen. They did blood work and it turns out that her pancreas levels are off the charts. I kind of hopped all over the place and I left a lot of things out. But do you have any clue what may be going on or what she could do to help her improve her overall quality of life and finally be pain free? I also left out that recently she has started losing hearing in her left ear. What does this all mean?

Please consider scheduling a 1-hour health consultation (only $100) so as to get at the root of all these problems. She's too young to be going through all of this. Time just won't allow for a detailed written response here. However, I will suggest she perform the Full Body Cleanse as she sounds pretty toxic. It's good she may start at a young to better her health. She doesn't have to suffer!
