@parrotqueen Very impressive I like what you have done to heal yourself yes if you give the body the right stuff it will heal itself. I have studied herbs, homeopathics and essential oils since the 70,s Dr Earl Mandel had the book out herbal Bible I think it was called , now I have the 5th edition from Phyllis Balch I really like this book . She tells you what not to use if your on certain meds, especially Coumadin . I to an on ConsumerLab.com they give you as you said a lot of info about what not to take also . I use all holistic meds herbs homeopathics also .. Glad to know alittle more about your education into holistic health
