Codi Manchel: *My first answer: look for Serrapeptidase on your search e! ngine: Wikpedia, British Medical Journal articles(listed separately), and Dr.'s Best andHealth Concerns websites, Wellness Directory on the subject of Chronic Inflammation, probably the source of many things. That should get you started. Herbal Medicines work as well: see your local herbalist. I did not say witch doctor: be careful, get herbs from a reliable store before you try to buy over the internet, then you'll know if you are getting what you ask for. Several Drugstore have a fine selection of herbals. Hylands is one brand, and ask your pharmacist, many know herbs well. Ask around.I work for an acupuncturist (5 years), which works for all of your topics with varying degrees of success from moderate to great except obesity. It is his opinion that obesity needs will power and in some cases counselling, but accepts patients if they listen to him and takes herbal remedies to suppress the appetite. The internet will tell you that Europe and Asia have been using ! many solidly researched (by them) non-prescription remedies and prescri! ption remedies, too, that we are a little!! behind on. Many of our patients are striking out on their own because their Doctors are running out of rote answers and sending them to alternative medicine. I personally have used serrapeptase to remove arterial plaque, after I suffered heart attack, stroke, both while working at hospitals, a carotid artery cleanout, and quadrupal bypass. When my doctor thought my carotid was over half full again I took it upon myself to use Sytrinol and Serrapeptidase. That was two years ago, and several other things have resolved under this treatment as well (Rheumatoid Arthritis-documented), range of motion, cut my HBP medications in half(2). No more TIA's, but you have to read read read talk and read to understand what your specific problem is, why you have it, and what to try. Don't believe all testimonials. Look for studies from overseas. Good luck....Show more

Aldo Decurtis: these are serious conditions treatable by an alterna! tivehealth practitioner you could look in local phone book oreven contact some Chiropractors for referrals they don'tprescribe meds/only herbal/might know good practitioners

Phil Kuarez: Sure it's exceptional to grasp that some tremendously certified medical folks do not simply say substitute therapies do not work just considering they have got no notion what they're! There needs to be a position in our societies for both replacement or complementary therapy and conventional medicine. Collectively they offer the patient the quality of each worlds. As has been stated therapists are in a position to offer extra time to patients than their GP and this on my own may be very therapeutic. I'm a therapist myself in aromatherapy and therapeutic massage but if I had melanoma i would definitely keep in mind surgical procedure or chemotherapy as good as replacement remedies. Definitely we're all looking to hold and give a boost to the pleasant of persons's lives?...Show more
