In Portugal conventional doctors almost completely ignore them. I use them in most cases, but when I tell doctors that I used this or that natural therapy, they tend to ignore it, or to devalue it. They say it is not scientifically studied or measured so they can't rely on it. I think that is an absurd because in many cases they work better than conventional medicine. So why not to use these alternative therapies, in addition to conventional ones?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, this information about curcumin is very interesting, I think I will increase its use! I already use neem in the garden because I studied organic agriculture, and we finally have a commercial brand in Portugal. Thank you for this interesting information!teresa g.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14720987208667759534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275369479742345722.post-21147227315379704132007-08-13T06:18:00.000-07:002007-08-13T06:18:00.000-07:00I wish more doctor's would look toward the natural...I wish more doctor's would look toward the natural rememdies for today's maladies! As for the gardener, I am using Neem oil to control many pests and fungus. It is a product I am selling in the industry but I find it a great organic remedy to many garden problems. Should I be eating turmeric every day? It can't hurt!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275369479742345722.post-37743096972122583462007-08-12T22:56:00.000-07:002007-08-12T22:56:00.000-07:00By accident I came to your blog which is so intere...By accident I came to your blog which is so interesting and instructive.

We have several neem trees, and just today I used the leaves as well as chopped lemongrass in my foot bath. At the spa here there is a neem foot treatment that costs US$150!<BR/>I also use tumeric in cooking and in body scrubs and face masks.Tirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05253130857755408695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275369479742345722.post-85520289433236198132007-08-12T15:05:00.000-07:002007-08-12T15:05:00.000-07:00What a wonderful blog! so interesting.

My friend used it on her cat when its paw was cut badly and bleeding. It worked straight away!Matronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07705506930308472527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275369479742345722.post-48914277828105122032007-08-12T11:28:00.000-07:002007-08-12T11:28:00.000-07:00Hi Green Thumb,This was a wonderful post.

I wish we would be able to bring all the different local herbal medicines together too - we would all benefit (excepting the large drug companies). In the end, probably fewer people would be dead from unwanted side effects of current medications. <BR/><BR/>It is only recently that Neem is starting to be known here, though in the insecticidal role.<BR/><BR/>Good to see you writing again! Have a wonderful week!katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979577122006222781noreply@blogger.com
