PinkPrincessNerd asked:


There is way too much info out there for natural remedies. There is no naturopath in my area, so tips and hints that have worked for you on your kids would be helpful.

My 9 year old has asthma, which is brought on by allergies and heavy exercise - she is a sport nut. Her allergies are pretty bad too, but since she spends so much time outside for sports I **** to “dope her up” every day with allergy medicine. No allergy medicine = worse asthma, so then she is ******* back her puffer.

Any tips, good websites, etc would help! Thanks
She is getting food allergy testing on Wednesday! I’m looking to start more natural treatments after I find out what she is allergic to,,, I know there is a food in there somewhere [like tuna or red dye] that will be an AHH OK! for us :)

My cat, 6 yrs old, could possibly have kidney failure (it might be a bladder infection but I won’t find out for another 2 weeks after antibiotics); he’s still energetic and doesn’t show any signs of illness. Ironically I have kidney disease as well and am using natural remedies like dandelion root tea and other herbs. Wheatgrass has also improved my health a lot. I am wondering these herbs would apply to cats as well?

Does anyone have any suggestions for diet (should it be homemade)? I’ve been doing research and they all say low salt, but some sites say good high quality protein while others say low protein. And should I stop using the chemical Frontline (flea medicine) on my cat?

Also, where on my cat are his kidneys located?

Thanks!

In some parts of the world they use natural remedies to cure you for MANY things. You heal fast. These things are not available in the US. They are all man made. Why?
