It sounds like he needs more vitamin D. You need to look for a brand such as Carlson's that does extensive testing for contaminants. My entire family takes cod liver oil in the darker months, which for us is as soon as school starts. We take fish oil in the summer when we are in the sun a lot. >>Brandi Lemburg <faerie_eyez Depression. Hi all, I'm somewhat of a lurker here, but I learn a lot from listening! I wanted to seek your wisdom for my father...he's a moody sort, and he always seems to get really cranky, critical, and somewhat depressed at this time of year...by December of last year, we all wanted to kill him! (Haha - joke.) We were thinking St. John's Wort? but I wanted to hear everyone's thoughts first. There's another herb that has been recommended, and it's right on the tip of my tongue...H...something? Anyway, I would appreciate any possible suggestions. Flax Seed oil has helped me a bit in the past, but I think that's too " mild " for his situation.<< Music Unlimited Access over 1 million songs.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 I would be very hesitant to use a water pik on any area where a tooth has just been extracted. It is too easy to break open the healing scab and cause serious problems. Your dentist or the doctor doing the extractions should be able to provide your husband with an irrigator specifically for use in these areas. Gently flushing the areas with honey diluted in water would be helpful. Honey is an antibacterial agent and has healing properties.

I took a water pick and put some tea tree oil in the water and pummeled the area. I also did the same thing with garlic juice. If you do not have a water pick, you can do the same thing with a syringe or something that can squirt a stream of water. -Shelby herbal remedies [herbal remedies ]On Behalf Of b_raznoff Friday, October 07, 2005 4:52 AM herbal remedies Herbal Remedies - A tooth?? this time My Dh has 3 impacted wisdom teeth that he will be having pulled nov 8th.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 I was suggesting that for an infected tooth that has NOT been extracted. Or an infection in an area that has been extracted for some time. -Shelby herbal remedies [herbal remedies ]On Behalf Of fun_stuff_2_sell Saturday, October 08, 2005 5:53 PM herbal remedies RE: Herbal Remedies - Digest Number 4147 I would be very hesitant to use a water pik on any area where a tooth has just been extracted.
