Guest guest Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Hi Bill, Actually, I see that as fortunate... it allows us to dig deeper and find natural products more effective.... and there is one! Maca is a root that comes from Peru and, in their culture, is used as a condiment, meaning they eat small amounts on a frequent basis. Peru has NO hormonal problems: no adolescence kerfluffles, no menstural difficulties, not menopause, noadropause, no fertility......it is a hormonal adaptogen so affects ALL of our little glandular fields. I don't have any info on it here at home but, if you can't find it, type to me on Monday and I'll get it to you.

With CODEX and other forces on the horizon, I wonder where it is going to end with our lack of access to nutritional therapeutics in our "toolbox". I think this will make it difficult in the future to position DCs as the true non-drug "health and wellness" specialists, if that trend continues. Like to hear some of your thoughts.Best regards,Bill Hartje, DC, MS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Bill, where did you get this information? I hadn't heard about DCs being unable to Rx progesterone cream. There've been no directives from the OBCE on this change in scope. Can you give me more details.
