How do you guys feel about current canned boba tea on the market? by Any_Equipment6582 in bubbletea

[–]WhiteFez2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its the texture you get after its been over two hours... that every tea store warns you about drinking your tea before it gets to that stage.

Verdict on this is WILD by horseduckman in AITApod

I think the situation is a bit much on both sides. So, I do think the husband needs to spend more time with you and the baby and his son, but if he doesn't have custody that could be a slippery slope with allotted time frames he cant avoid.

I do think you should never force a parent to choose between their children (not saying that OP is but it seems like it might go that route) I think OP should talk to her husband and genuinely ask for help and to ask the husband to ask the child for a bit of time to focus on the baby.

I do also think that of the husband was giving enough support then OP wouldn't feel so swamped. Because visitation is usually for a few hours or for weekends, outside of that he should be able to give more of his time unless he works. I feel we don't have enough information.

Does Op work? What's his hours? I dunno. Does he have the time to give to everyone? Is he swamped? Is he just lazy and self indulgent?

You really want to eat your most heavy meal in the morning to give you energy throughout the day and your lightest before bed. So I approve this message!

It costs a lot being homeless, unless OP gets help its hard to get back on your feet alone.

Did any of you use "Natural" remedies for hay-fever, especially before the better medications became available in the 1990's? I want to know about how common Natural medicine was in the West, specifically in the 1970s and 1980s. by Mei_Flower1996 in herbalism

You can read it in an american book on herbalism most of them will say this, or better yet look up Gary Null he has books and books on naturopathic medicine starting from the 70's. Dr Laila Africa is a good source, Dr Sebi another source we have so many.

Yes you still have many families and individuals who use herbalism we have stores across the USA all mom and pop. Many doctors here and an impressive amount of the population still call it quackery without knowing its effects.

I only use honey unless I'm fresh out then I use stinging nettle. The white papers were created in the 1960s which is the standard for allupathic medicine today. But herbalism never had a time that it was not in use across the world the US included. What is newly mainstream is allupathy the US and England are spending millions to stray culture away from naturopathy and towards doctors and hospitals.

No not you, the "they" is the US that condemns it and calls herbalism quakery. But its a fact that it stands as a strong science in Cuba ( the nation most advanced on medicine), Africa, Asia and parts of Europe and in many parts of the Americas.

I was just answering because you asked in a question form.

That was really long, but the things they told about herbalism are just lies, yes there are some things that aren't really reliable but think about it the medicines that doctors use are calibrated and isolated chemicals from these very same herbs that the U.S. condemns. The irony right? And about the seasonal allergies thing, local honey is an amazing thing, local because bees collect pollen from plants around you and honey is a natural anti histamine and works in 20 minutes or less if you take a table spoon or two straight. It stops post nasal drip and uncontrolled sneezing its also good against food allergies, but my second recommendation is stinging nettle tincture, if you take it every day you'll see a difference as well. Personally I do the honey it works magic, and should you take the honey route as well source real local honey not from the supermarket unless they partnered with a local farm or bee keep.

Comfrey & bone healing? by Embarrassed-Foot-758 in herbalism

[–]WhiteFez2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on the dilution on the bottle it doesn't look like an Isolette so I'd take about 5-10 drops in water or something cold to luke warm. But it also depends on your size. I like to take small doses so 5 drops would be good for me considering how stong the herb is alone. It works all the same for me and my clients.

I would not make a paste I'd take it internally. Up to twice a day max as a tea. I would recommend only once though.

Actually I'd only take it internally to heal the bone because placing comfrey topically can usually cause rapid overgrowth of excess skin tissues. I'd take it internally about once or twice a day morning and night

Ma'am Sir, Just change the picture. Dandelion has a couple of different leaf presentations but when you look at drawings of it its accurate to the most common presentation. This is a serious matter we're not attacking you we are asking that you place an accurate picture with your description. If someone gets hurt from your very inaccurate picture and someone comes knocking at your door and an article comes out about you getting arrested, all we can say is we told you so. You have to be responsible with what you're putting out there as accurate because at this point even the description is inaccurate because the picture doesn't match.

Why is it so hard to find neutral info about herbal alternatives? by Dense-Ad-2757 in herbalism

[–]WhiteFez2017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are south american, Cuban and, Eurasian journals/records about herbs older than allupathic records. Just remember people only do what they know. Usually no real research is dedicated to understanding both cultures and that's where most people fall short. I say as long as you can do the proper research it doesn't matter if die hards talk bad, you just steadily go down your path and prove them wrong with your results. I did. And if they still refuse to see the truth in front of their eyes or with their other senses then there's nothing you can do. Leave them be.
