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...

I was surprised to like wheatgrass juice. It is kinda sweet...and to me it sort of has an icky taste right at first but then that goes away and you get a yummy flavor and aftertaste. It is just sorta fresh and grassy...that's the only words I can find.

The Mr. and I like it enough to sip it, and then the guy at the juice bar yells at us to hurry up and drink it cuz all the vitamins are going away as it sits there.

I'm gonna do a juice fast sometime soon...I like that more than the master cleanse, but I still drink a lot of water with lemon. It's sort of a good, spring-y time for a cleanse!
