I have a long list of problems that are finally being taken care of. I went to an herbalist, actually he is very famous, has written books, and his books or book is used in college. I called him on the phone because I have hashimotos thyroidism`, eye probems, and asthma. I was overweight. I have a long list of problems. Anyway, his name is Dr. Alan Tillotson, and you can find him on his website.
The first thing he did was put me on a low carb diet for 3 weeks only. Then he had me take some things for my eyes (I have dry eye macular degeneration). Then he told me to take raw coconut oil and a standard process brand of thyroid stuff that is natural and not by prescription. He has me on Stromium for my bones since I have osteoporosis, as well as some other bone stuff. The list is long and it can be expensive. $200 a month for me at this time, and that includes his office call and the herbs, but I was spending probably as much at a health food store on vitamins, etc. Much of the stuff that he recommended I get at the health food store.
I lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks. I feel better. My thyroid is functioning a lot better. I have been on his diet for maybe two months or more. And I thought I could never lose weight or fix my thyroid problem without going on Amour or is that Armour?
I don't seem to have the same breathing problem, and he explained that it had been caused by my acid reflux, which I know longer have unless I stray from my diet. He says that it hasn't cured my asthma entirely, as it would take longer, but I can tell the difference because I no longer huff and puff when I vaccum or mop the floor.
My eye problems will take longer, and I am not certain that it can cure my macular but he has seen great improvements inn others that have used his herbs.
I am off sugar, which is a plus for me. I use stevia, but then I don't seem to desire sugar like before so I seldom use the stevia. I now eat a little amount of bread and/or rice cakes but not often with the bread products.
Amazing that a herbalist can do what doctors can not. It only proves that God did make what we needed when he created the earth and all our problems are of our own making.
To many doctors just treat symptoms rather than find out the cause and fix the real problem.
jessaka, that sounds fantastic! I'm glad that you are seeing someone who is actually taking your seriously and is helping you, without expensive meds, that might be causing problems in the long run. Good for you. Keep us updated on your progress. I'll check out his website.
It sounds like you are doing well. My friend swears by her herbalist. I know she had several health issues that have greatly improved because of this person. Maybe this is something I should check out...
I would have never thought to check out an herbalist. I was going to a chiropractor that said that i should call this man who lives in another State. And so I did and then told him what the doctors said that was wrong with me. I also have a family doctor, and it was nice to hear him tell me to go to the health food store to get something for my thyroid problem that is like Armour. They don't have something like it, but chiropractors and the herbalist does, and they use the same Standard Process product.
That is wonderful that you've made all that progress! Have you ever heard of Healia Communities? I'm a member and I think it is a great site- people exchange information like you are doing on here and it is really helpful. I read on a blog about their points system to promote high quality information sharing. I encourage you to share your information since you have finally found something that works that other people might not consider.
I'm glad you said something, I talk like this to friends all the time and half of them think I'm nuts LOL But if you really look at this, think about tribes out in the Amazon, nothing further from modern medicine, they rely solely on herbs, plants, nature essentially for all their illnesses and these people live, they thrive, I mean doesn't that just show that those things work?? I'm of the mind that you should not take medicine, that you need to completely detox your body and start fresh with all natural foods, herbs etc.. I'm slowly working my way there. I began juicing, use herbal supplements and feel great.
