FOCUS YOUR DETOX

Did you know there are many types of cleanses or detox? I like to use herbs to assist my body to rid itself of things it doesn’t need. We are exposed to SO many chemicals, that it is easy for the body to be overwhelmed by them. Next comes disease. Regular detox is proactive prevention! I generally recommend a cleanse twice a year.—

This Girl is Showing Some Leg

It has been crazy HOT weather this past week! Some of your plants may look like this girl and are showing some leg! The heat causes them to “bolt” or go to seed as a survival mechanism. This is a cilantro plant, which seemed to get leggy from the moment I planted it. At this stage, you might as well compost it.

You Fixed My Poo Problem

One morning a customer came into the shop exclaiming, “You fixed my poo problem!” We both had a good laugh. Her joy at having an annoying problem solved was catching. I am always so pleased to hear how well herbs work.

 

She had come in the week before and shared with me about a rather personal problem. Every time she left her house, she had to go to the bathroom. Not just once either, but often as she was out and about. It was embarrassing to be out with friends and have to stop constantly, not to mention urgently to find another restroom. Sadly, she mentioned that she was beginning to just say she had to stay home. This problem was definitely affecting her quality of life.

 

I suggested a wonderful herbal formula from Nature’s Sunshine, called IntestinalSoothe & Build. The main herb in this formula is Slippery Elm, which is firmly established in traditional herbal medicine. Slippery elm’s high mucilage content soothes inflamed tissues on contact, drawing out toxins and providing protection against irritation or injury. Slippery elm has a strong nutritive content and aids with problems related to poor digestion and absorption. Intestinal Soothe & Build is designed with herbs to soothe inflammatory gastrointestinal tract conditions and promote healing of the mucosa lining.

 

She had tried the formula and was joyfully impressed that even one dose made a difference for her! It doesn’t always happen that quickly, but I have seen this formula make a noticeable difference for many of my customers. Taken for a longer period of time, we have seen complete healing of the problem. She mentioned that this will be a daily addition to her supplements and she won’t be without it!

 

Side effects or cautions? None that I know of. This is considered a very safe formula, with a long history of successful results.

 

Have a personal problem? I have probably heard it before, and maybe there are natural solutions. Stop in and let’s talk…
