Seems like there was a lot of support for this, so here 'tis, a thread on alternative medicine. I know that there is a lot of talk about this stuff in bits and pieces on other threads, but it seems like such a popular topic these days that it really deserved its own. Anything about herbs, naturopathy, accupuncture, nutrition, etc., bring it on!

I'll start: has anyone ever used slippery elm root for digestive problems? I bought some, but I'm scared to try it, and don't know anyone who has! It's supposed to help heal irritated digestive systems...

clover-i've heard detoxing from effexor can be very very difficult, my dr. wanted to put me on it and i did a little web research and got scared. not to freak you out, but you might want to check beforeyou come off of it, like how the dr. thinks you should go off of it.
