Guest guest Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 I'd like to stress Mikes advice of being very careful of herbs. My mother-in-law (who was native) decided to seek the advice of a Shaman. This person gave her herbs to take that made her lose weight. I noticed her rapid weight loss and asked her what was going on. She told me about these herbs she had been taking. I tried to explain to her that they were cleansing herbs. (to purify your body) A cleansing should be done for a maximum of 10 days (and that's in a healthy body which she wasn't) She had been taking this stuff for months (like living on exlax) and lost an extreme amount of weight. within a few months, she was anorexic and barely had the strength to walk. We were visiting with her at the time, she insisted she just had the flu. She died of a massive heart attack a few days after we left. That 'medicine man' just kept giving her the herbs, without any caution. That was 2 years ago, she was 54 at the time. Onale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
