Well, I was basically on the meds for blood pressure, thyroid, cholesterol, etc. you know the meds EVERYONE gets put on for life? Then I started listening to Dr. Barbara O'Neill, Dr. Livingood and others on YT. Something clicked in me. When I was a kid everyone ate a grapefruit for breakfast. I mean everyone. We even had special spoons with a serrated edge to scoop out the meat. I realized that many meds prohibited eating grapefruit. Hmmmmm. Also, quercetin can be made by boiling grapefruit and lemon rinds.... So, I cut back on packaged foods and started making my own meals and breads. I was born in the '60's and when I was a teenager junk food skyrocketed and we ate chips, dip, cookies, etc. and I've always had a weight problem. But at least now I'm not on meds and eating better.
I also stopped using toothpaste and brush once with baking soda and then coconut oil and my teeth stay pretty white! In the past I always got all my cleanings and they'd always find some more work I needed.
F them. Just like veterinarians. They wanted me to do poop tests on my 18 year old cat! Anything to guilt you to spend more money.
I'm far from being homeopathic (smoker 🤪)
It's a process.
Thank you for this! Yes same, I am on blood thinners and have been told I can't use hardly any supplements but I heard NAC does that job and of course no doctor will take me off and let me try natural things bevause big pharma ...so I'm on my own. Thanks again for the goid start with names! Merry Christmas.
I certainly can't recommend stopping meds cold turkey like I did, but the fact that Drs. don't teach you how to get off them is criminal. My nieces and nephews in early 40's are on BP meds for years!
God bless you on your journey and Merry Christmas too!
I have begun stopping individual prescriptions as they run out. I won't get those renewed. And I will tell my regular doctor about it and why I'm doing it. I'm in my 70s, and my health is getting better all the time.
BTW, immunotherapy (monoclonal antibodies) cured my cancer this year. My insurance paid all but $10 for each treatment, even though the oncologist was billing $27,000 for each treatment. So that medicine works wonders.
