Kidney Stones and Alternative Medicine?

Hye Caulley: steam your sinus and add rosemary or minty smells to the water. Oregano oil will help with the headaches and aches. and if you must take something try silver fusion.

Davis Zou: last year i had 24 stones..low carb diet and a glass of papaya juice.............

Alonso Crehan: i am not sure on the spelling of this profession but i once went and saw a kinistesilogist (he is an alternative to a chiropractor), i Had kidney stones and he gave me the following remedy . In one hours time i Had to eat 1 pound of asparagus, and drink a six pack of regular coke classic all in a hour. sounds funny and like it wont work well i thought the same and it does work i was told the coke breaks up the stones and the asparagus flushes it out and cleanses. I had stones about 3 years later and tried the same remedy and it really does work. takes about three days to really notice a huge change....Show more

Hunter Beech: St. John's Wort is safe as long as you aren't ! on any other anti-depression medication (SSRI, MAOI, etc), It takes about 6 weeks to start working and I haven't heard anything about short or long term side effects except the chance of mild light sensitivity. Fish Omega 3 Oil is fine. actually pretty good for you so is folic acid.B12 is basically energy. That's what's in all those 5 hour energy things (you can look at the label). So taking it depends on how much and the person as to whether or not it's safe.I'm no doctor, so this is just my own knowledge and research. The best option is to talk to your doctor to make sure you won't have any drug conflictions. hope it helps...Show more

Madge Voice: Don't colds suck?? Doing stuff that helps/strengthens your immune system is the focus. Your lymph system is the major component of your immune system.Good nutrition is one aspect of helping your immune system. In general, plenty of fresh vegetables, high quality protein and plenty of good quality water are at the top of the list for enhancing your immune system.Next is physical activity because that's the only ! way the lymph system can circulate - by muscle movement. Lymph isn't part of the circulatory system which has the heart pumping. Lymph depends on muscle contraction and relaxation to move through the body!Actually, go get a massage :) Massage is excellent for enhancing the flow of lymph and helping your body to detoxify itself. You could also use skin brushing to enhance many aspects of your health, including the flow of lymph and your immune system - http://www.improving-health-and-energy.com/skin-br...

Maynard Phoubandith: AyanaHerbal and homeopathic remedies can offer an effective natural ! solution and can be of assistance in alleviating the painful and discom! forting symptoms of a migraine. Herbs such as Silybum marianus (Milk Thistle), Passiflora Incarnata and Hypericum perforatum (also known as St. John’s Wort) can be extremely beneficial in helping to soothe the recurrence of pounding headaches. In addition, studies have suggested that the herb Feverfew, when used regularly, can help to eliminate or greatly reduce the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines.http://www.healthherbsandnutrition.com/remedies/m/...In taking a holistic view of your health, you can address many factors that contribute to optimal physical, mental and emotional well-being.

May Stands: Headaches can be caused by a number of things. Migraine headaches are commonly caused by stress, dehydration, hormonal fluctuation, sensory stimuli, weather changes, some medications, and sensitivity to specific foods.Foods that ! can trigger migraines include: alcohol, especially beer and red wine; aged cheeses; chocolate; aspartame; caffeine; monosodium glutamate â€" a key ingredient in some Asian foods; salty foods; and processed foods. Skipping meals or fasting also can trigger migraines.Some of the stimuli that can trigger a migraine include: Bright lights and sun glare, loud sounds, unusual smells [including pleasant scents, such as perfume], and unpleasant odors, such as paint thinner and secondhand smokeThe first thing to do is avoid any of the above triggers if they are the cause. There are also things that you can take to reduce the frequency of migraines and/or treat them when you get one. The most commonly used herb for migraines is feverfew [Tanacetum parthenium]. Feverfew may interact with "blood-thinning" medications, such as aspirin and warfarin (Coumadin) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), so if you should not mix them with feverfew.Other herbs and supplements that h! ave been proven effective include 5-HTP, magnesium, and butterbur [Peta! sites hybridus].You should see a licensed naturopathic physician who will take a complete health history and may order tests to rule out various headache causes and can prescribe the treatment that will help you most....Show more

Floyd Labuda: Try a supplement marketed thru MLM. You can write me at jade_flowershop@yahoo.com ab! out it. The only way to find out if it works is to try it. On retail price, it has a 30 day money back guarantee.

Elvie Drumgoole: nettie pot will the help stuffy nose, hot lemonaide with honey instead of sugar will help the sore throat, cover yourself with a lot of blankets tonight to sweat out the fever, sit in a hot steamy room for a while for the coughing. dont know about the headache, but it might go away when your nose clears up

Neville Dautremont: hey i need some home remedies and/or tips for getting rid of a cold..symptoms included stuffy nose, coughing, sore thoat, and headaches if you know any quick things to do please help thank you for everything and a happy new year p.s. i have been resting

Connie Dickirson: I agree with "Tony I" completely FDA is not doing there job properly get money from "BIG companies" to let them pass the medicine just so they can make a lot of profit from it. Not only that they say that u "must" take medicine because tha! t's the only way to help stop the disease, pain, etc. So its a lot bett! er to do legit research 1st on alternative medicine to help u from problem instead of taking "wonder drugs" which are encouraged by FDA.

Lucien Hellerman: I have tried everything going for the past three decades, conventional medicine and alternative. The best was Cafergot (stops it almost immediately but leaves you feeling tired out). I've found that since I've been drinking more water, exercising more (not overexercising because that causes migraine too!) and avoiding the classic migraine triggers, I've reduced them by at least 50%. I didn't find much help from aromatherapy or massage, hydrotherapy or homeopathy.

Lu Tiner: Some natural remedies for migraine I know are acupuncture, meditation, and also drink more water. It will just support your treatment. You can not stop your medication. Usually patient buy butalbital online medicine to treat migraine and headaches. Ask your doctor for professional advise. http://bit.ly/1nSQVZ6

Lucrecia Laurito: try ! taking magnesium everyday to help prevent them and see a doctor

Jannie Ariola: There's little point taking SJW as it does have known interactions with many drugs. Leave valerian out for the! same reason. The rest occurs naturally in food so will be fine.

! Donnie Bolio: This site is a pretty good source for information on side effects and contraindication and interactions among herbal drugs.http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/11570.cfm?herbsacc...You might ask your doctor to see if he/she knows anything about possible long term effects of these.Really, you might just want to avoid taking any of it. St. John's Wort has some mild effects, but long term Valerian use has been associated with liver toxicity (though probably not as drastic as Kava).Vitamin supplementation is really only necessary if you aren't getting a normal amount in your diet. There doesn't seem to be any benefit in taking a lot of extra vitamins, and recent studies are showing actual health problems with it. Vitamin B toxicity is always a risk when you are supplementing because it isn't water soluble and thus not quickly excreted. Remember, what your body doesn't need it doesn't use. Taking extra appears to cause harm....Show more

Patricia Dornbos: I have suffered from chronic kidney stones for over 25 years. Recently I finally found the underlying cause - a leaky gut (intestinal hyperpemeability) caused by undiagnosed Celiac Disease.A leaky gut allows large amounts of oxalate to be 'absorbed'. Oxalate drives the formation of the most common type of kidney stones - calcium oxalate stones. Celiac disease, other food allergies, use of NSAIDs (e.g. Advil, Motrin, Alleve, Naprosyn, etc.) and intestinal dysbiosis (abnormal microflora in the gut; usually a result of the use of antibiotics and/or acid-inhibiting drugs) can cause a leaky gut.Find a competent doctor (you may need to find a good Naturopathic Physician or Doctor of Ch! iropractic that specializes in nutrition) to help you test for these problems.Supplementing with calcium (it binds and blocks the absorption of oxalates), magnesium, and vitamin B6 may also reduce the risk of stone formation. Note: for a long time docs recommended limiting calcium intake in stone formers; however, a large body of scientific evidence now shows that calcium supplementation is the proper 'treatment' for reducing stone formation.Best wishes and good luck....Show more

! Pei Heatherly: Go with the acupuncture and I'm sure that they will reco! mmend foods and other supplements that will reduce your body's stone forming abilities.

Willetta Munhall: Natural migraine remedies can provide symptom relief and often address the source of the problem. For example, clinical evidence supports the effectiveness of Feverfew in the treatment of migraines. Regular use of this herb in therapeutic dosage can significantly reduce or eliminate the frequency and intensity of migraines.

Codi Manchel: Overdoses of every one of these can be dangerous, especially Vitamin D. The trouble is, people fail to realize that the body needs only a microscopic amount of any vitamin, so that reaching the overdose level is horrifyingly easy. Vitamin D and Vitamin A overdoses are deadly. The other vitamins can be toxic too. They are B6, B12, Folic Acid (it's part of the B complex) and Vitamin C. St. John's Wort has recently been the object of intensive study around the world, and has not only been found to be ineffective in treatin! g any known human malady or enhancing human health, but capable of interfering with other medicines and interfering with natural human metabolism. Valerian has been shown to be toxic to the kidneys as well as the liver, and fish oil is also not without risks.This is not to say there are no herbs that are beneficial - but to warn you that there are a great many people who care about money to the extent that they'll lie to you and sell you poison, saying it's good for you. Get your health advice from a medical doctor....Show more

Russell Mckinzie: does anyone know of any natural remedies for headaches/migraines?

Willis Liburd: I had menstrual migraines for years and progesterone cream from a naturopath helped greatly. As did taking Wild Yam tincture. But that is if it is hormonally caused. In women, it often is.Emotionally, I've read that suppressed anger towards your father can lead to migraines. So maybe delve into that internally.

Michal Semple: htt! p://gottaheadache.com/This is my headache doctor's website. I am diagn! osed with chronic migraine and migraine associated vertigo. Her treatment program has changed my life. I started by reading her book and went from there. Enjoy!

Cole Desher: As far as Migraine is concern it is a common type of headache that may occur with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to light. In many people, a throbbing pain is felt only on one side of the head. Some people who get migraines have warning symptoms, called an aura, before the actual headache begins. An aura is a group of symptoms, including vision disturbances that is a warning sign that a bad headache is coming.Frequency of attacks may vary. Varahadi Kashayam works by clearing the obstructed channel of the body and helps to improve the blood circulation. Punarnavasavam and Varanadi Kashayam helps in pacifying the vitiated Kapha, which is one of the commonest causes of migraine....Show more
