Alternative Medicine - June 2007

In "Haunted," one character states that foot massages intended to trigger some sort of "energy" in unrelated areas of the body can eliminate headaches, lift general mood, and offer a host of other benefits. Well, I'd believe that to an extent, just because a foot massage can feel so good. But this character seemed to say that this energy was so powerful that it could be misused, even to cause death. Death by foot massage?? I am correct in thinking this is completely impossible, right? (A friend disagrees.)

What type of natural remedy can be used for dealing with a large fibroid tumor? My mother has almost died because she literally bleed to death (menstrauting heavily for months). She became severly anemic with a blood volume level of a mere 3. Normal is 12. She recieved 5 blood transfusions over a 2 month span. They believe it's all been a result of the fibroid tumor in her uterus. She is trying desperatly to get their insurance company to cover it but they are jerking my parents around calling all of this pre existing and saying they wont cover a dime for any of it including the bills already. My parents are already 100,000 in medical bills. They will not cover the surgery until Nov. of this year. What can be taken naturally in the mean time to help her not have the severe pain and bleeding. Her stomach is so bloated she looks like she's 5 months pregnant. She always has pain and she always bleeds so bad. I'm worried so badly about my mom. Someone help please!!!

When it comes to supplements and vitamins, does the expiration date on the bottle mean that the supplement loses potency, or does it mean that the supplement becomes unsafe, or does it mean something else?
For example: My friend has had a bottle of activated charcoal that expired three years ago, and he says it is still okay to use to treat diarrhea. Is he wrong, and if so, why?

Can anyone recommend a remedy to combat bloatedness after eating, lately I feel really bloated after eating just about anything and often only very small meals. I feel really sick and am tempted to go and throw up because its so uncomfortable and my stomach swells up. I would prefer a herbal remedy but any suggestions would be welcome.
