Please tell re the naturopathics. What are you taking and is it over the counter or from a naturopath?

My remedies were recommended by a naturopath, although I was able to get them at health food stores, with some searching around. What you might need to take may differ from what was recommended for me, but I am taking two capsules of turmeric per day (Thorne Curcumin Phytosome), along with 30 drops of Rheuma-Pasc (a homeopathic remedy), once in the morning and once at night. I have also increased the amount of calcium I'm taking (I use Bone Basics) and may also up my Vitamin D from 2000 to 3000 IU a day. My naturopath also recommended an anti-inflammatory diet, which is going to be the hardest thing for me to implement, because so many of the foods I love best -- especially dairy -- would have to be eliminated or minimized. However, I have cut out red meat and processed foods, especially processed meats like bacon and lunch meats. I'll wait another week or so, and then start trying to wean off the prednisone 1 mg at a time.
