Best of health to you my friend get well real soon.
Take Care and God Bless you. I recently checked into propolis ( a bee product) for a friend who asked about it. I didn't find it all that special for what she asked about, but I did find a lot of good info about it being helpful in the treatment of UC. You might check that out. Bee products are very healthful, and never a bad addition to the routine.
The Jordan Rubin send was a great one! Definitely check into his books and information. They are very helpful for healing digestive issues. The MDs do struggle more than their usual share with those.
Best health to you! |
