dandelion To Anji

[Guest guest]

Anji,

 

hello!! I can't take laxatives at all because my gi doctor says that

I have melanosis of my colon probably due to much laxative use before

I started doing herbal therapy. he says that if uses anymore

laxatives then my colon can become lazy. I don't need anymore other

health problems....I also used alot of aloe vera and that i see is a

laxative. I don't want to take anymore chances until i get

better...but now i know...THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!

 

Love

Susan

No problem. I just wanted to clear up the confusion about dandelion.

You will actually find that almost any herb that helps the digestive

system could be called a laxative since they will help the GI tract

work more efficiently. I'm not sure that you can have your herb and

eat it too! LOL

Anyway - I shan't intrude any more.

 

BTW - you may notice that I am rightly known as the " typo queen " !
