hi there, looking for other peoples opinions.
my friend has recommended i take something called 'supergreens', a powder of loads of herbal stuff and is supposed to be really potent. you mix it with water and drink 3 litres a day. i have tried this for the last 5 days, and must admit to feeling somewhat better. is this just a coincidence or is it really having the desired effect?
i'd love to know if anyone else has tried it and with what results.
thanks alot
look forward to reading your replies

Petal,

Different things work for different people. I read the label to see what all the ingredients are. Often those kinds of mixes contain alfalfa sprouts for their base and alfalfa can irritate lupus. Or contain other herbs that are contra-indicated with our medications so it is important to know exactly what all the elements are. I have done similar things before in desperation for help that I wasnt getting from the medical community back in 1995-96. I did go into remission but I still got sick again.

It could be that drinking that much fluid is getting your intestinal tract moving again which is a good thing. It could be there are also pro-biotics in it which is great for repopulating your intestines with healthy bacteria.

My big IF is IF it is promoted as a cure-all for many ailments I tend to walk away, even tho I might get a small benefit from using the product.

glad to know you are feeling better.

Karen
