Carrots Very rich in Vitamin A. "Carrots are good for your eyesight", we were told as children and indeed around 500, 000 children worldwide are going blind every year because their diet and their mothers' breast milk does not contain sufficient amounts of vitamin A and Beta-carotene.

I just need to ask you a few questions before I feel I can answer you to the best of my ability..Are you now, or have you ever been on birth control pills? How old are you? Have your periods always been like this? When I was young I had so many problems with my periods I wanted a hysterecomy. Of course at 14 years ols, my doctor wouldnt listen..LOL.. I would call your doctor just so he/she can assure you that you are ok..You said your blood was a browish color, I wouldnt worry about that, it is when the blood is black that means something is going on. DOnt worry abou t the clots, that is normal. Like I said, I had many problems when I was young, in fact my GYN had me on birth control at 14 years old. I hope I helped a little, but please get in touch with your doctor, it is amazing how much better you will feel when you find out you are fine Read more or ask a question about sighterShirley How to thank TFD for its existence?
