Patient discussion about supplements.

Q. Is there any natural supplement for birth control pills?? there has to be!!! I'm tired of puting chimicals in my body.. maybe something from chinese medicine?

A. any natural material when coming in large quantities can damage. sex hormones are a natural thing. chines medicine does not have something more "natural" then the body regular hormones.

Q. can anyone tell me what kind of dietary supplements I can have to control cold and cough? I often get severe cold and then try with meds to get rid of cold….now the frequency is very less and I get cold without any reason and the meds also didn’t work for me……can anyone tell me what kind of dietary supplements I can have to control cold and cough?

A. I have found that taking Oil of Oregano capsules, one a day helps to get rid of it then continue for general well being. Also, Wellness Formula by Source is an excellent supplement to not only give you the vitamin support that you need but it also has echinacea, an herb that will help to boost your immune system! As the label says, take 3 every 3 hours if you feel that you are out of balance....

Q. What is vitamins? And which one should I take? I’m 35 years old and I want to take food supplements and I wonder what could be best for me.

A. The definition of vitamins is a material that your body needs in order to function well, but the body cannot create them. There is an overwhelming list of vitamins. And you need them. Luckily, most of our vitamins we need come from our food. Here is a link to wikipedia talking abot it:
