Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Babassu is one of the best things in the world, as far as I'm concerned!...LOL. I'd consider it a 'must have' for anyone with dry skin--or excema--as it penetrates very quickly--NOT leaving a greasy feeling, and has wonderful moisturizing properties. I doens't taste bad--kinda nutty--and I put it in my lip balms, too. Places that carry it are: columbus foods--best price-per-pound, but you must by 7 lbs of it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One good way to keep cats out of plants (I've got one that will potty in one if she's going into heat--also chews on any in the window sills)..is to lightly mist with water---then sprinkle ground ginger on the soil, and the leaves. It burns the cat's mouth--only takes a time or two before they decide to not do it anymore. It does need to be repeated as necessary. I thought this a much better alternative to a dead cat, from munching on poisonous houseplants. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr's who have a 'superior' atitude--they know everything--we, nothing kind of thing, drive me nuts. I much prefer finding ones who have an open mind to 'alternative' paths. Fortunately, more and more are beginning to embrase this concept. My *real* peave is MD's who poo-poo chiropractors, etc... as 'quacks'. If they'd have had what it takes to actually *finish* the medical training--(instead of bailing at the first point where they can 'practice' and make money..)they'd learn about how the muscle/skeletal structure out of balance contributes to our dis-ease, etc....and would have DO (Dr of Osteopathy) attached to their name! ....ok--my rant is done! goody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I feel the same way ) I have six compressed disks, and degenerative disk disease, and when I started seeing a Chiropractor, man did I see a huge change! I felt so much better. And having a doctor with an open mind like you said is such a big difference. The more I think about the pediatricians that I have been using for my kids, the more inclined I am to find a doctor who is more open to alternative methods. There are so many different types of healing that exist, and having a doctor that is knowledgeable about that is huge. A perfect example is the weight loss doctor I went to last month. He's Vietnamese, but he's studied all over the world. He has us on vitamin b-12 shots, and we have both lost alot of weight and feel amazing. But he was talking to us about how so many times, the US takes a little bit longer to catch on to European medicine. My husband has had lots of problems with low testosterone since his vasectomy, and no one would give him a testosterone shot to fix it, they kept saying he needed to take fertility drugs, or take viagra, which wasn't the problem. So my husband is telling this doctor about it, and the doctor looks at him and said, " You had vesectomy, right? That's why you have low testosterone. Every one in Asia know that once you have Vasectomy, you loose testosterone. So we take shots to compensate for it. " He saw the blood results we had had done on his testosterone, and he gave my husband a shot right there in the office. Where as the Endoctrinologists, and the specialists, all gave us the runaround. Now since I'm on the shots he's been giving us, Bri has lost 20 pounds, and I've lost around 14. Yay! ) So yeah, I hear what you are saying about doctors being more open.
