Rx for my 60 year old mother

[Guest guest]

What you recommend for my mother?

- she is turning 60 and she has been obese for most of her life

- she was on HRT (hormone replacement therapy) and had breast cancer, now she is

on tamoxifen which has nasty side effects

- she is also on celebrex for arthritis

- she is very much grain/sugar/starch addicted and I fear alcohol addicted -

depending on how you define it (she has a couple glasses of wine every night and

isn't settled without it)

I have tried to convince her to try a cleanse in the form of cutting out all

sugars/

grains/starches a la Mercola - she is open (to some degree) to trying some new

things at this point, seeing as how she has signed up for Weight Watchers again.

At

the same time, she is very much in the thrall of the medical establishment with

all of

her meds. For example, she said she can't try the flaxseed oil I recommended

because her doctor warned her against it. I think that it would do her more good

than

the drugs...

Anyhow, I would like to encourage her to do more for her health.

Any advice is much appreciated!
