Re: Prozac AND St. s Wort. NOT!!!

[Guest guest]

Thank you for the information on SJW etc. I've read too that echinacea

should not be taken on a regular basis like a one-a-day vitamin. Not that

it's harmful but that it isn't as effective that way. I was also interested

in what you said about when to visit a Pharmacy. I've never encountered any

difficulty up here that compares to what I encountered in Florida. My God,

I've never seen Pharmacists so rushed!! And judging from the rush of

business I've never seen so many folks in need of so many medications!! Of

course 99% of them were, like me, white haired old folks. I don't know how

the Pharmacists kept anything straight. I had been led to believe that the

gulf coast of Florida was like that but I was visiting just north of Ft

Lauderdale on the " gold " coast. Oi!!

I have great confidence in herbal medicine but agree that one should dose

themselves with great care. Look up the herb you're interested in and read

as much as you can about it. There's more than one herb to research for any

application. Since each of us is unique, what works for one may not work

for another. Just keep searching. Nature has the answer as well as many

(but not all) modern allopathic medicines.

I wish all of you a good day with restful limbs and joy in your hearts!

Cheers!
