"Comparison of Alternative Medicine and Conventional Medicine" and daily health secrets.

He has practiced alternative and energy medicine for over 10 years.
I suffered from cold sores throughout my life. Stress and environmental factors would cause my mouth to blister painfully. After my divorce, the flare-ups became continuous. Dr. Gardner prescribed a simple nutritional solution. I have been completely cold-sore free since that time. This is what medicine should be. Thanks Dr. Gardner.

I need to get off of caffeine. I became addicted to it after suffering headaches and taking excedrin. Now I have rebound headaches and even diet coke fills in when I need an extra boost. I have tried weening myself off and never made it. Is that the only way off?
There are only 2 ways to stop the addiction to caffeine--cold turkey and have a miserable 3-7 days or slowly, which just prolongs the misery, and may not work. My wife's mother described herself as a 'coffee-a-holic', drinking up to 13 cups per day. She stopped cold turkey, had a miserable few days, and has never touched it since. Sometimes energy work like acupuncture or Jin Shin Jyutsu or cranial-sacral may take away some of the side effects. Be sure you are on a good multiple vitamin, as this may also help with your strength and your resolve.
