Guest guest Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hi everyone. I am new here. I have been interested in alternative medicine for quite a while. I was even considering a career in the field, but thought it would be best to wait until my kids are a little bigger and less dependent on me so I can give my learning more attention. I have done alot of reading on different topics of natural healing and TCM seems to combine everything together. One of the things that bums me out is that I have not been able to find anyone local to go to as a practitioner. Everything is mainstream around here:( Now for my major problem right now... I have been trying to get the family switched over from a very SAD to a more whole foods diet. It has been a struggle, but I have been making progress. (still always on the lookout for some healthy recipes ) We are all still hooked on sugar, white flour etc. I have tried different substitutes but none seem to compare. They always know. I'm the worst with the sugar though, I wake up usually 2-3 times a night and I want some sugar. I have noticed that when I ate dandelion leaves in the spring, I actually slept through the night. So I'm am thinking that would help, but what to do when they are not in season. I am really bad at remembering to take supplements too. I have a whole cupboard full of them. I know I must be deficient in something that is giving me these cravings. I suppose I rambled on enough. I'm sure I will learn alot here. Thanks for having me.
