Glad to hear the natural approach has helped you so much more! *And* so much more economically than the doctors and their harmful drugs.

Just one comment though... When I was working in the health food store, I often heard complaints from people who didn't want to take, as you put it, "truckloads" of pills every day. I always tried to get them to think of their vitamins and herbs as *food* supplements, a term often heard but rarely ever understood.

If you think back to a couple hundred years ago, when herbs were the only medicines available at all, they didn't come in a handy dandy capsule form back then. If you wanted to ingest the valuable phytochemicals they contained, you had to actually eat the plant itself. When you compare the sheer volume of the food you're consuming with the volume of what's inside those little pills you're taking, there's a really big difference. Just think how strong those phytochemicals must be if ingesting a relatively small amount like that can make such a big difference in your health...

BTW, several years ago when I nearly died from immune dysfunction, I was downing up to 100 pills of natural food supplements every day, and it was the only thing that saved my life... Just something to think about while you're trying to swallow that handful of pills! It might take some getting used to, but isn't it better than the alternative...?!
