Hey
thanks for the reply it's always greatly appreciated ... well I have been eating alot of salads, fish and vegetable stir fries with a bit of fruit and so far so good ... my skin is clearing up well ... I got a bit of dry skin but the moisturising, fish and avocado seems to be helping that ... now though I have a wee bit of a cold so I am going to keep up my C vit's to try and shift it ... though I think me having this has something to do with the green tea I have been drinking these past couple of days ...
I'll keep you posted

Darn it ... I don't know if you can tell me whether or not this me eating healthy consuming my five a day, drinking 2L of water, eating fish, taking herbal teas has something to do with this cold that I have. I know that I have a post nasal drip as the doctor confirmed that I had annual allergies last year ... by any chance will my new eating habits help to clear these allergies ? I had bronchitus over xmas as well ... a little bit confused !!
Thanks for the help

| It is allergy season! Eating a very clean diet will always help allergies, as will getting adequate vitamin A and Zinc. And when you eat a very clean diet you can expect some healing crisis reactions, which can imitate allergies. The best thing varies from person to person. For me, to get rid of most symptoms, all I had to do was an enema and presto! all problems gone. You may just have to do a sinus cleanse and keep up the fiber. Have you flushed out your sinuses to ensure you don't have irritants? |

Erm no I haven't how do I go about that the nasal cleanse?... it seems though that my sneezing and runney nose has calmed down alot this evening ... so maybe it was something to do with my cleansing ... hey got a great book today about eating correctly and what not and what to eat in order to get skin glowing and looking beautiful ... will let you know how the remainder of the read is..
Thanks Shelley xx |

| Google for Neti Pot and you'll find excellent instructions all over the 'net. It's one of the things I recommenmd for everyone, especially people who suffer from frequent sinus issues. Or go to Amazon and buy the Sinucleanse system, altho chances are good your local rite-aid has it too. |

Neti pots look scary !! My nose has however, gotten much better which is fab, I just tend to have a problem with the throat now alot of cattarh but I am going to have to see if there are any herbs i can take to budge it ...
I am getting the occasional rashes / blemishes coming up now but heal relatively quickly which is truly fab ... I am on a completely raw diet ...
Oh Shelley there is something that I wanted to ask about Brewer's Yeast ... if you have a yeast infection is it such a good idea to take this stuff ???
Thanks |

| Brewer's Yeast shouldn't have anything to do with yeast overgrowth anywhere. Some candida people do get sensitive to yeast products, but I never did. |

I'm not real big on spirulina, most of the time we can't really assimilate the nutrients there, and it's not enough to really make much of a difference.
I always thought NYF tasted much better than the green stuff! LOL! Have you tried it in my protein shake or blueberry smoothie? You can always just take a synthetic vitamin/mineral supplement instead, just don't cheap out and get those stupid "one a day" things. |

Hi Shelley
I tried the B vitamin supplement and I am not sure I am actually absorbing anything as my pee is pretty yellow !! Even though I try to drink lots of water ... should I carry on taking them ? |

Only like, once every 3-4 days. Make sure you have at least 1-2 days of normal color before you take it again.  |
