My husband has scar tissue on his head. He was hit on the head with a bat by some attackers (years ago). The top of his head is extremely hard like a rock - the entire thing is scar tissue. In the back towards his neck but still on his head is a larger patch of raised scar tissue. It is so severe that he has lost and appears to be losing more hair off the top of his head (I think it's because his skin isn't breathing or getting oxygen. He's tried everything from drinking Aloe Vera and applying this to all sorts of products. Currently he is using the skintight products (razor/hair bump, as well as the coco butter) however after reading your article about alcohol, I know they contain this so I don't want him to keep using it even though we are seeing some larger results than we ever have before with that product. We are both vegetarians. He has been a vegetarian for 15 years. He used to eat soy burgers etc., but has completely cut that out for about 3 months. He is now in his third week of raw food (as prescribed by your website) just drinking the green juice from Bolthouse (algae, wheatgrass, spinach etc.) and eating large spinach and vegetable raw salads. We are using the recipe that you included in your e-books. We will continue on a diet like this for the next year while we cleanse our bodies and keep this lifestyle. However, with all of that, my question for you is - Do you have any recommendations for him to remove his scar tissue? I thought the Oxy-Oil would help. In addition, I'd like to buy him the Fibriod Buster and/or any other fibroid kits- but the website says they are for women (only?). Any recommendations you could make would be most appreciated.

I would tell you to keep using natural products (Shea butter, Oxy-Oil, Fibriod Buster, MSM Sulfur, etc.) and let the healing take place at its own course. The more you focus on what you don't like (his head injury) the more it will magnify (not heal). His body is programmed to heal and it will but you must remain open to let the body heal at its own pace. Just continue to eat, think, and live right. He'll heal! Just give it time! Let nature do her thing!

Do you have anything without Senna? Senna causes me to have anxiety. I am suffering with this pressure in the middle of my chest that comes from stress. Have you heard of Holy Basil? Please let me know I have used it before when my life became stressful. Do you have any ideas?

No ... Nothing without Senna (that's strong). We have Intestinal Cleanser but that's a fiber formula. I have heard of Holy Basil. For stress, try our Nerve Formula ! I think you'll like it.

I have been diagnosed as having stage 4 renal failures. I've been given 6 months to a year max before I'll require dialysis. Is there any hope for someone in my situation or am I just too far gone? I'm told my kidneys are functioning at around 18% and my Creatin (not sure if that's the proper spelling) levels are 4.2 so I'm not expelling toxins from my system like I should.

Is there hope? With God all things are possible. Who created the herbs? GOD! So with herbs all things are possible. Drugs will continue to kill your kidneys. Your diet messed your kidneys up and then the drugs dealt the final blow. Beloved, I would recommend you perform our Full Body Cleanse and Pancreas Cleanse And Regimen and then notice the results. Drugs are dangerous! God did not make them. Man did! You can heal, Beloved, if you do the right thing. Read our article on "Dialysis"

What can be done about carpal tunnel? And what really causes it?

I ordered a bottle of CIGA-QUIT (ANTI-SMOKING) FORMULA. I need to know, if not doing the detox, will they still help you to quit smoking? How long will it take, for it to start working, and do I stop smoking all at once or gradually?

This formula is only a maintenance formula! One must perform the Full Body Cleanse first for the Smoke-Less Formula to be effective as an maintenance formula.

I am contacting you about a health issue that my girlfriend's mom is having... She has had "Body Lice" (pediculus humanus corporis) for a while now, and she has went to the doctor a couple times but they don't seem to know exactly what to do other than give her special soaps to use... She used to work in the home health care field but can't as long as she has this issue. My question to you is do you have any suggestions for what to do about this ailment? Soaps, teas, balms etc. Anything that would work would be appreciated

As within, so without! I would suggest she cleanses/detoxify her temple. She should perform the Full Body Cleanse (see article "Sea Salt Soak" on the site) and use tea tree, niaouli, and eucalyptus oil in the water. Remember, as within, so without, the external reflects the inner, i'll be doing an article soon on lice!

I have been battling endometriosis for several decades now and I hadn't really found relief until I began educating myself and prescribing my own remedies. Conventional medicine seemed to be unable to help, save for surgery which only helped for a few months. I have recently experienced relief after learning to avoid estrogenic foods, get rid of chemicals (perfumes, cleaning agents, sprays), discontinuing relaxers and cosmetics, using natural deodorants, eating organic, eating raw foods, taking kosher supplements/vitamins that are bio-ready, refraining from sugar, drinking water, and so on. After a LOT of research and trial and error, I am beginning to feel better, though the progress comes at very slow intervals. My question to you is how might I help the body clean the endometrial debris that may have attached itself in various places in the uterine area?

Keep getting educated! We have an article on "Endometriosis" on our site under articles that will be helpful. I recommend the following Dherbs products: Full Body Cleanse, The Female Cleanse. After these kits, for maintenance: Menstrual Cycle Formula, Female Health Tea, Female Hormonal the most important thing is diet and lifestyle. Keep doing what you're doing. Look into yoga, acupressure, etc.

I have been diagnosed with genital warts. I haven't received my results for HPV yet. I've already done the Full Body Cleanse. While doing the detox I felt great, but since I've finished I feel the same way I did before I started it. What else is recommended? I am so depressed, I feel like my life is over.

You should read my "GENITAL HERPES" articles because the same principles apply to your case of warts. Your life is not over with. Its just beginning. Your focus and perception is all wrong. You are not looking at the problem as an opportunity to learn and grow. In every problem lies the seed of its own solution. Problem means opportunity. Warts are telling you that you have not been living in harmony with higher law and have been abusing your body via diet and lifestyle. That's all. Hang out on Dherbs.com and read our powerful articles and watch your depression become impression. You will always feel good while detoxing, but the goal is to feel good after detoxing, beloved, and you can do this by changing your diet, lifestyle, thoughts, and attitude. Only you can do this. You have a choice. You can be well or you can be sick. It's your choice! Choose what you desire, beloved. Don't give up! With God all things are possible! Believe and you shall achieve! Guaranteed! I recommend for you Brain Booster, Nerve Formula, Female Health Tea, and Happy Inhaler.

I am a 38 yr old single black female smoker desiring pregnancy. 3 yrs. ago I was diagnosed with PCOS, type II diabetes as a result, along with a fibroid on the left side of my uterus. After much research, I have come to believe in your philosophy of healing from within, in an all natural manner. Although I am in the process of making drastic lifestyle changes from a sad diet to vegan and anti smoking, I feel as though I am in need of western medical assistance. I have scheduled an appointment with a gynecologist, for next week, but still plan on ordering the Full Body Cleanse and Uterus Cleanse with the next two weeks. My question to you is this: What could be the possible side of effects of such drugs as Metformin, Clomiphene Citrate, or a combination of the two for fertility while I am on your prescribed Full Body Cleanse and Uterus Cleanse?

If you are going to take drugs then don't take the herbs as you're just wasting money. Herbs will cancel drugs out because herbs clean the body of toxins and drugs are toxins. Taking herbs and drugs simultaneously defeat the purpose in all truth, Beloved. Please read "Can I Take Medication With My Herbs?", "Herbs vs. Pharmaceutical Drugs".

Back in November 2007 I ate fish (grouper) at a restaurant and later that day I broke out in hives. I've never been allergic to fish before and I've never had hives before. Since that day I've had the hives (7 months), they come and go only because I have been controlling them somewhat now with "Xyzal" (antihistamine). I was given two separate rounds of prednisone (steroid) and I took weeks worth of Benadryl. With the steroid I gained 10 lbs. Nothing helped until I started taking Xyzal. My question is I don't want to keep taking the antihistamine for the rest of my life to keep them away. I don't know what it was in the fish or maybe it just was a coincidence that it happened that very same day but I would like to know if there is anything you would suggest to help?

You need to cleanse. Take a look at our Full Body Cleanse. You're body is telling you to cleanse.

I want to know if you have a product for scleroderma. It is a skin discoloration disease. The symptoms are your skin darkening, hair loss, and arthritis in hands. If you have any products, do you have liquid or small pills? My friend has problems swallowing large pills.

When there's a problem with the skin, it's time to cleanse the blood. I would suggest you look into our Full Body Cleanse and consider a permanent dietary change after detoxing. Our pills are pretty small in size, beloved. Thank you for your interest!
