Herbal Remedies - Hope for the hopeless???

[Guest guest]

Well there is, but consider this: will he even take an herb on a regular

basis? Usually when someone is in this state of mind they are not going to

follow through with anything that is a change of routine. Trust me, my

husband is this way. If he will, cayenne is your best all around bet. He

should be on the heart formula in the files though.
