I am a lady in my 60's and have RLS. I will NOT take prescription drugs for the condition. Has anyone found relief with over the counter dietary supplements? For example..Magnesium, Calcium, Zinc, Glucosamine, chondroitin. Or some other type of vitamin? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I don't want to take prescription drugs as they seem to have way too many side effects.

I suffer from depression, lack of concentration/focus/memory. I basically want a better brain/mind/emotional health (also tired a LOT). When I get down, I get really down, like very hopeless. I hate that feeling. Also I am about to start some college courses and noticed I just can't concentrate or retain any of the information. I have to make this work. Is there one good combo or do I need to get a whole bunch seperately? I've tried St johns wort, I've noticed I get a little calmer and sleepy but nothing major. Any recommendations? I am looking for Natural remedies please, I've been on RX and the side effects were horrible. Thanks

my husband got this by accident but it turns out thats all they had anyway ...im an herbalist not a homeopath and I dont know how to use this. I have a 2 and 3 year old with bronchitis and I normaly use lobelia herbal extract in a apple cider vinegar base 2 droppers fulls as needed. The directions on the homeopathic dropps says .25ml three times per day but that seem so little and is definatly not working as my lobelia extract does.. Is there a difference for maintainace dosing and acute dosing as with herbal extracts? How much and how often can I use this homeopathic version of lobelia for acute conditions.

Thanks in advance.

(((please only real knowledgeable help...dont tell me to see a doctor..)))

i have been on prescription meds for some time to deal with this issue. i have asked doctors for thier advice on natural remedies, but they look at me like i'm crazy to consider it. one doc said lots of vitamin e would maybe help...
i don't plan on completely quitting prescrip. meds, but i hate thinking of what they are doing to my body. if i could cut the doses down a little, with the help of natural remedy, i would even be happy.
pre-warning: my bipolar is a touchy subject, so please be thoughtful with your answers :) i hate to hear people tell me to think happier thoughts and i'll feel better; or that if i had a better relationship with god i wouldn't feel like i do. thank you!

I was hospitalized in June, I was feeling tightness in my chest and burning as well. I was diagnosed with Acid Reflux and I was wondering if anyone ever had it and what did you take to help. I'm particularly interested in natural alternatives.

I am suffering from osteoarthritis since long and allopathic medication does not help in curing it. Many of my friends suggested me to try homeopathy. Can homeopathy cure osteoarthritis? Kindly suggest a few homeopathic drugs

25 white female....acne and red face inherited....now cystic acne started about three years ago.......have tried pro-active, store bought CRAP, and seen dermatologists who put big needles into my face inecting something that did not work. All topical products I've used make my skin dry and flaky; even when I use moisturizers to combat those effects.

I am SO SICK of this crap. It seems like I have at least one cyst/acne thing on my face all year long. They take forever to go away and even after they are gone (at least not very visible) I still feel a hard spot where it was.

Anyone out there have/had a same experience and can offer advise?

I was diagnosed with horrible GERD/LPR in June of 2007, and have been on high doses of medication ever since. My main symptoms are feeling as if food is getting caught in my throat, and I belch alot/have the feeling of needing to belch but cant. I have done a lot of research and have read that acid reflux is more often than not associated with low stomach acid levels....but I was wondering if it is possible for a healthy 19 year old to have low stomach acid? I tried taking some papaya enzymes because I read enzymes were good, but my throat began hurting after I took them and I don't know if this was from the actual product or from my swollen throat. I would love to stop taking these reflux prescription meds, and any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I was reading about Homeopathy, it seems illogcal to me. However a lot of people seem to believe it works.
Is it more than just the placebo effect when people feel better from homeopathic treatments or is it something more?
Any ideas will be appreciated!
