Is There Anything, Vitamins, Holistic, That Works

Does anyone know of anything, first hand, like vitamins, minerals, herbs , seaweed, or even ground up cockaroaches that really works to make you feel good. Any of that holistic stuff (or whatever u call it) that i've tried never amounted to much of anything. I hear all these crazy info mercials on the radio, like how genuine oregano oil, bees jelly, or super duper natural delux formula secret receipe figured out by (your choice) Dr, nurse , nutritionist, king yoga instructor, Rabbi, Priest, Minister, Minister Priest Rabbi Dr Nurse, will turn you8 into superman, or superwoman (again your choice). But seriously, has anyone ever found anything, (except what we are all here trying to recover from) that has genuinely done anything. (I've tried ginsing & all kinds of concoctions to no result). Or is there anyone like the herbalist on Kung Foo who knows how to make something nutritious & clean & good , or like that guy (Mcgiever?) on the tv shows {ya know, that nerdy lookin guy who could figure out how to make a rocket ship out of a vacuum cleaner, or a cure for anything out of mosquitto droppings}. C'mon guys, don't keep the secret to yourself, we are all brothers & sisters here, so tell us the secret.
Seaweed helps. You need your "greens". Cockroaches for protein...

Still searching for McGyver. He's in the '80's somewhere.

Time, sleep, food, and exercise is the ticket.

If that doesn't work, do what Chris wants to do...slap your neighbor in the head.

Chris, helluva story. Write the flippin' book.
Browndog.......do you really want the answer to that question because I think you already know........You need to find your thing what works for you. I have found what works for me and I even have a backup plan that I fall into every year or so when I hit that day or disaster that has pushed even the most patient me over the edge. Backup day plan is coming real soon for me. When I was a much much younger I lived to get high not one specific drug but anything to get a high. I thought that was the way to get though school, work, parents just the stupid day to day all kids go through.Thank God in college I f***ed up and took something I couldn't handle and scared the s*** out of myself. From then on I had to find something to take the edge off the day to help me be at peace clear out the bulls*** that builds up in the brain. My secrets are to my passions reading everything and anything except love stories and self help books, music and the family. The back up plan I ain't giving up because it is something I shouldn't do. So you need to find out what works for you, your passion. Keep looking it is out there. You know you can take all the vitamins, eat all the healthy foods, sleep well every night........and feed only the body. With a passion you feed your mind and soul!
Mistyeyes, i know ur right, but as usual id like something a lot easier & lazier, the idea of slapping my neighbor sounds pretty good. lol, thnx
I went out yesterday, hoping to find a miracle cure. I went to the health food store and bought ALOT of stuff that I have been reading about on here. To name a few, vitamin b-12, milk thistle, multi-vitamins - and then the guy sold me on this Royal Jelly stuff - says all the movie stars take it. Something about it comes from the QUEEN bee and her average lifespan is seven years opposed to the drones, who cannot eat the "royal jelly" and live only seven days. It was expensive as hell too. He said it would boost my energy and make me feel great. I've heard of it before and thought maybe it would help. I guess I'm grasping at straws here. Anyway, the salesman made a great sale!! I also went to buy the Immodium, epsom salt and also green tea. Of course, when handing over the cash, all that was going through my mind is "I could of bought alot of pills with this money" - I never knew how tough this was going to be! Perc
let me know if any of that stuff does anything at all
Dont worry, I hope that I will be telling you that it all worked wonders very soon! Unfortuanely, I dont think any of these are miracle workers and like it or not I'm still going to suffer w/ds :o(

on day 24 here and i found something that i think works it is megaman vitamin packs at GNC there are 8 huge pills in there and dont say they are too big because i know we can all swallow a handfull of pills at once when at the mall i bought them and was falling asleep standing up it was about day 16 i got a water right then and there took the vitamins and when i got home i ckleaned my weight room and worked out for an hour they gave me tremendous energy been taking them since and feeling great i tried a lot of stuff in past and these are the only thing that worked for me
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE
Day 24 is AWESOME...I am on day 12...when does the fog clear from your eyes? I feel like I can't focus properly? Do you have any idea why or when it will clear???

thxxxxxxxxxxxx
just takes time thats the only answer at day 12 i was still feeling pretty bad too i didnt start to really feel any better till day 15 or 16 then you may get a little energy but when you get it use it because when you are up and moving around you will only get stronger and better
i was at gnc chuck and must have missed the megaman vitamins doing the b50 and cal mag stuff guess i will be making a trip back my energy is better but tremendous energy sounds like just what i need right now thanks for the tip it is worth a try
im gonna try those megaman too, if they work ill let u know, but i'm definitely not going to get excited about it in advance. i do hope ur right, but if they actually work, even if they are good for u, i better get em quick, before our parental government decides to protect me some more & make them illegal. (then for my own good they can arrest me, have the prices increase 10,000 fold, have people shooting each other, lock people up, create new prison, lawyer, & court jobs, increase police jobs & sacrifice a few officers & addicts for the cause of protecting me <sorry, had to throw that in.)
oh s*** now you got me thinking that i should a case of them before they are outlawed worse thing is i am with you i would rather take the lazy way out
YOU guys sure it doesnt hane afedarine in it and might cause high b\p ask clerk abouy ok tell i WILL BUY THEM I NEED SOMETHING TO IVE GOT THE BLAHS BIG TIME NO ENERGY LOVE YSPEARING
A word of caution on the use of Royal Jelly. There are are several deaths a year in Australia (and around the world) due to severe allergic reactions to Royal Jelly, or products containing it. If you are an asthamtic or have other food allergies, allergy to bee stings or other pollens you should avoid Royal Jelly completely.

Silent partner, good advice , but i have to laugh. When u consider ur audience & all the crap we've done, r we really gonna worry about dyin from bee jelly, I know we should, but , well, we all aint quite all there even when we are in recovery. I'm sure maybe i'm only speaking for myself. Hah...
they also have MEGA WOMAN or someting little different ingredience but pretty much the same
If I'm not dead from all the tylenol I have taken from the Norco I was on the past years, a little bee jelly doesn't seem too dangerous.
Its funny how we addicts think (not) - I, also, was told that Kava would help to sleep. But immediately put the bottle down when I saw that it could cause liver damage in some people. Ha- I didnt think 15 or 20 percs a day would hurt it at all I guess!!!

BTW - I'm reading about this "MEGA MAN"- wondering if they have any MEGA WOMAN? I dont need any prostrate support right now:o)
