I am so delighted to be completely cured of HSV-2 by Doc Kham Herbs on YouTube
This can be a painful and hard time for those who are going through this…. You can take Ashwagandha capsules …these are natural and will soothe your nerves…
Avoid soy! It is a hormone disrupter and if you have thyroid issues like hypothyroidism do not eat it.
Relax muscle one at a time – Progressive muscle relaxation involves tensing then relaxing each group of muscles in your body. Experts think it works for hot flashes by reducing release of the stress hormone norepinephrine.
Gosh..with respect this video is pretty irresponsible…In England we've had all over the Guardian newspaper and the Lancet that states that takig such high levels of calcium is contributing to women getting heart disease…I was amazed myself but think ppl are irreponsible ..we need a good balanced diet ..maybe for a vegetarian like me brewers yeast ..The Black Cohash again.I worked in a health store for years and now going through hot flushes too..but I am auntoimmune,,seriously Black Cohash greatly speeds up the immune system for those with HIV..Lupus.rhematoid..anyone who takes very strong immune suppressers..I cant stress enough.its ok the woman saying "ask your Dr" but in my experience in the UK most ppl don't when it comes to natural medicine..I find sage tea pretty good at dealing with night sweats..I'm only 46 and it brought on by my medication sadly..I had to say something as I KNOW Black Cohash is dangerous in the above categories..sad I too only want to go the natural way..been a vegetarian 38yrs..cant win mine is genetic;( Thankyou
