anyone use honey as a rooting hormone substitute?
Comments (5)Well, experiment didn't work so well, it seems... the bit that I had sticking down into the honey mixture has turned brown on each plant, and I had forgotten to bag them, so they're totally droopy and not looking so good... I have put the suckers into some potting mix and bagged the three of them, so hopefully they'll perk back up. :( I was so excited....See MoreAnyone have experience with plantar faciatus?
Comments (16)A tennis ball helps, too. For me, the thing that helped the most was wearing heels. I had Plantar fasciitis in both feet for over a year. It is quite miserable. It was by pure accident that I realized I was getting some relief when I wore slight heels...about 2". I now call them my plantar fasciitis shoes. Whenever I feel a slight tightness in my arches, I start wearing these shoes. It seems to nip it in the bud immediately. After suffering for one whole year, trying everything, my plantar fasciitis was gone in about two weeks. I put on these shoes from the time I got up until I went to bed at night. Even wore them with my pajamas. This from someone who never wears shoes, which by the way, is a definite no-no. Might not work for you, but it sure as heck worked for me...See MoreHRT and Osteoporosis
Comments (5)Junelynne, I tend to agree with Leigh here. Why take something when you are perfectly healthy now? I started having signs of perimenopause at 39, and when I started having extremely heavy periods for weeks on end, I went on the pill. I'm 44 now. I recently went off the pill (so far so good, no periods, no cramps, no sore boobs, for two months!)...my aim is to go through menopause without a single medication or supplement, unless there is a clear medical reason to do so. My husband is a doctor (radiologist, so he's fairly clueless about primary care) and was a little leery initially. Doctors are just conditioned to prescribe (or take themselves) "something" to "cure" a problem, or perceived problem. I am sure many doctors prescribe meds and procedures because its easy money. Also because many patients will go away feeling uncared for and dissatisfied if all the doctor tells them to do is let nature take its course, or lose weight, exercise & eat right. But many docs are simply inculcated in medical school. I see this with Mick, and his coworkers. (Funny, I am in much better health than him, and I barely ever even take a vitamin--he takes tons, and medicates himself for every little thing.) Anyway...I am also active and eat very well. My mother likewise. She went through meno at 44. She is now 68, does yoga and walk/runs five miles every day. She steadfastly refuses to take anything, and is healthy as a horse. She smoked for over 20 years, and I recently quit. If women are getting osteoporosis more than 50 years ago, its probably because so many people in this country are fat, eat junk, and don't get off their butts to exercise. And because advertising scares them, they take a pill. My .02....See MoreNew Member and Osteoporosis Diagnosis
