Of course I agree with you that just because it is natural does not make it safe. I also agree with seeing your medical Drs. for exams/treatments... I still go to my medical Drs. for care & do like my gyno., but I do disagree with him when he suggests Lupron for me. Everyone needs to decide for themselves what they want to do. I do think we need to be proactive in our health care researching all that we can about we are putting in our bodies & just because we get a prescription from a medical dr. or herbal from a naturopath does not mean that it is not harmful. I am one who has been helped by natural medicine & would like to share what has worked for me in hopes that we can all find some better outcomes, but I do believe that true wisdom & the path for each individuals life should come from above!
