I am particularly interested in Phosphorus and Potassium levels, say per teaspoon of Spirulina powder. I am considering it for a friend with renal disfunction who is having problems maintaining nutrition due to inability to eat many protein-rich foods that commonly contain too much Phosphorus and Potassium for a renal patient. Anybody out there have information on Spirulina's nutritional ingredients?

What are the health benefits of using vinegar (not white)? One of my friends was telling me that she read that vinegar can help your body and cure things in many different ways, whether by ingesting a few teaspoons a day or wiping it on affected areas of your body, etc.

I have been suffering with migraine headaches that have gotten to the point where I am getting them more than not during a month. I have taken various prescription medications that have not worked for me. I'm just looking for something herbal as opposed to narcotic like what my doctors want me to take. Any suggestions would be wonderful.

I dont know what is causing my rash and docters arent that helpful! I get it mostly where I sweat on my arms, neck, between fingers, feet... It is itchy and red. It can be bad at night but bad all day too. It develops into blisters. I never used to get b4 age 30. Is it excema? I take epilepsy medication (lamortigine) so I thought it might be that, but the rash comes and goes. I have been really stressed at work, so I thought it might be that, or a reaction to herbal supplimentsI take sometimes like gotu-kola. I am also wandering if it is a food allergy, so I have been trying to watch what I eat. Could I just have lots of toxins in my body that need to come out or an blocked lymphatic system? I had an opperation where they cut out all sorts of sweat glands when I was younger because of over secretion of sweat, which I am convinced was really bad for me. I really dont want to just use medication that treats the symptoms but the cause!
