Natural health remedies you’re doctor won’t tell you about …
Last week I was met with an 85$ bill for medication I was prescribed. When the pharmacy tech asked if I had a discount card, I didn’t reply. I was still fixated on the price he blurted out so effortlessly.
So, I did what any woman in my situation would do. I put the car in drive and told him I’ll be back, with no intentions of returning. It’s outrageous that pharmacies would charge 85$ for one prescription. At first, I swore I misheard him. Thinking to myself that couldn’t be the price, impossible.
On my way home I immediately turned into a Google almanac. Researching foods and vitamin alternatives I could take instead. I’ve always been aware of the high expenses of medications doctors prescribed, but I never encountered one of this magnitude. This situation also made me think about all of the people who recently lost their health insurance due to job loss because of the pandemic. All of those who can’t afford to just drive away or pay the 85$. If you don’t qualify for Medicaid right now you’re basically out of luck and stuck with an unbelievable bill for the medications you need to survive.
The hard truth is health-care is not a priority in America. In order to live a full life you have to naturally take care of yourself, by yourself.
If you did not know there is a vitamin or food alternative treatment for just about any illness. Regular doctors won’t recommend this kind of treatment because it takes money away from pharmacies. Holistic doctors would be the ones to recommend natural remedies that are cost-efficient and fast acting.
Medications are man-made and are created with different compounds – some of these compounds aren’t even listed on the prescription.
“We’re made of elements. Take the time to learn the foods with high element properties in order to save your health and body ” – Dr. Sebi.
Before the pandemic started, I’ve been deepening my education on vitamins and natural alternatives. It all started when I decided to go full on Pescatarian. I had to find an alternative to receive nutrients since meat was out. As well as an alternative cure for my my hormonal balance. Since I stopped taking birth control. When COVID hit, it pushed me even more to find natural remedies for healing. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is required nowadays with COVID-19, and the flu rising.
I’ve never been one to take medication. I’m so anal that I’d rather suffer in silence from menstrual cramps instead of popping a Tylenol.
In the past, I’ve tried different birth controls that made me suicidal, depressed, and overweight. I knew something wasn’t right, so I stopped immediately after my first suicidal thought. Then I was recommended to keep trying different brands until I find the one that works for me. Internally ruining my body just to find the right pill. I refused to put my body through that, birth control isn’t a medication women should be taking every day anyway.
“To be completely honest, I’m offended that a doctor would recommend medication that could internally ruin me as a woman. As if I didn’t matter.“
I know I’m not the only woman who has taken expensive medications that did NOTHING, but create more damage. Medications that hindered treatment rather than cured it. Medications that a home-girl like me can’t afford every damn month. Instead of dismissing the issue altogether.
What if I told you that you don’t need to buy those 85$ prescriptions anymore – that you can get a better alternative right over the corner?
When I found these natural alternative gems it felt like I finally took control of my health. No more uncertain doctor visits. My energy improved, face cleared up, and hormones calmed down.
So, here are the natural remedies I’ve found to help various medical needs that your doctor WON’T tell you, but a woman like you needs to know.
Oregano pills
Oregano is a plant – leaf that is used to make medicine. Health officials then add different components into it to treat different illnesses. Oregano can treat sinus pain, allergies, headaches, heart conditions, flu, acne, and your digestive tract. It helps fight bacteria in your stomach and other parasites.
Oh, girl. Oregano also cures BV (bacteria virus), UTI, cramps, oily skin, and dandruff. Although Oregano sounds like the holy grail to most of your problems. Be careful not to overdose. Taking 2 tablets for 3 days should be just enough to cure. If you feel that you need more I recommend asking your doctor first. Taking too much causes acid reflux.
DIM
Finding DIM changed my life and cleared my acne! If you suffer from hormonal imbalance or PCOS, this is the pill for you. Dim is a vegetable compound made of Broccoli and Brussel sprouts. It gives you more estrogen which is beneficial for women dealing with hormonal issues. DIM is the all-natural alternative of spironolactone which is the medication most doctors prescribe for hormonal imbalances.
“I stopped taking Spironolactone last year after reading the side effects of kidney failure and potential cancer. This is a pill my OBGYN suggested I take for 2 years because of my severe acne and hormonal imbalance. A pill that in the end could have possibly kill me was recommended for my treatment.”
Sea Moss
Everyone wants a jar of this cold-pressed gem, but do you know the health benefits? You’ll want to throw away all of your medications after I tell you this, sis.
Sea Moss is an algae that can be broken down into a thick liquid or formed into a capsule. It is used to cure high blood pressure, immune health, skin health, and enhanced energy levels. Sea moss is also an alternative for Metformin and Kappa – which are pills that cause organ failure and depression when taken over time. Nowadays Sea Moss is easy to find, everyone and their momma know how to make it. If you cannot find the jar kind you can always opt to take the pills which are sold on Amazon.
Emergen-C
Emergen-C is a powdered drink of pure vitamin C. Vitamin C produces energy and aids in immune health. Emergen-C can be taken every day, once a day. I haven’t had a cold since I’ve started taking Emergen-C. It’s the perfect vitamin to take during COVID times. These packages can be found at any pharmacy.
Detox Pearls
No, detox pearls are not a vitamin, but they are a natural remedy used to cure vagina health. Detox pearls are miniature cotton balls filled with herbs that are pushed inside of the vagina for detoxing. The herbs inside draw out any toxins and infections. These pearls cure yeast infections, BV, PCOS, odor, dryness, STD’s, and blood clots. They also draw out any dead skin or cum residue left behind. They are the perfect detox you need to get rid of your ex! Detox pearls usually range from 30-60$ and save you a trip to the OBGYN. I get mine from @cootiecouture.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Although it will burn your throat if taken obsessively, Apple Cider Vinegar is one of the oldest remedies for treating high blood pressure, diabetes, high sugar levels, digestive bacteria, weight loss, and skin health. If you cannot handle it in liquid form. You can take the capsules. Apple Cider Vinegar is also a natural alternative for Isotretinoin!
Health is wealth. The more you research, the healthier you’ll be.
