Keeping it Natural... Finding a Remedy

​During stressful times there are many natural
​products that can help bring a sense of peace and calm to your life.

You may or may not know that I'm not one to take prescription medicines unless I really have to, so I'm always researching and testing to find what works.  

In this day and age we have so much information literally at our finger tips, it's easy to access what we need. Always remember to research the contraindications, side effects and recommended doses of any supplements.

What is a contraindication? From Wikipedia, a contraindication is a condition or factor that serves as a reason to withhold a certain medical treatment due to the harm that it would cause the patient. 

Some natural supplements should not be taken together, and some prescription medicines contraindicate with some natural remedies. Always check with your doctor and natural health consultant.

Here's what I'm taking at the moment during a particularly stressful time (I do not take any prescription medicines therefore it is quite safe for me to take all of these).

Thompson's St John's Wort
- Helps the body to maintain normal mood in times of stress and worry.
- Assists the body’s natural ability to cope with stress.
