I had a similar problem and this worked for me. My husband even uses it and likes it. I like the unscented type. Good Luck!

Palmer is right...
That's where my chiropractor/former boss went to school in Iowa.
Vitamin B6
I was told helps with PMS symptoms, but I don't know about St. John's wort. Look at the ingredients, is it a combo?
My GYN said to take vitamin B6.
But, I suffered so bad with this along with heavy cycles (14 days on) that I finally had a hysterectomy (left with cervix and ovaries). The back pain was horrendous as well during these times. Finally, after 8 years (I'll be 38 in a few months), I have found relief from the horrible PMS. I'd go from crying to screaming to loving to hating to pitiful to in bed to not wanting to go to bed... Are you getting the picture? These emotions lasted 2 weeks and then was "on" for 2 weeks and I never had relief, never until I had the hysterectomy. I felt like a million bucks 2 hours postop - no lie! I was home within 24 hours (pleaded with GYN to just let me go home) and I have a new woman since. I doubt they'll do a hysto though just for PMS, but like I said I've been there and the only thing she recommended was vitamin B6 and Yoga. Definitely see a doctor though....
vitamin B complex (nm)

I take Biotin which is a B vitamin.

Vitamin K does exactly the contrary, it
COUNTERACTS the blood thinning.
So, people whose blood has become too thin by possible overdosing on blood thinners, SHOULD eat foods containing a lot of vitamin K.
They should especially eat yoghurt which contains a lot of vitamin K.
Aspirin is a strong blood thinner due to containing salicylates.
There are also a lot of foods that contain salicylates and people who take prescription blood thinners, like Coumadin, Heparin, Plavix etc... should avoid those.
You can Google foods that act as blood thinners, opposite foods that contain a lot of vitamin K.
They have the opposite effect.
I think green vegatables also contain vitamin K and will help stop excessive bleeding.
NO BASHING, please!
Vitamin D question
I don't get outside much these days and wonder if anyone knows if you can get vitamin D from sun coming through the window?
My mom has osteoporosis, so I figure I better do what I can!
Thanks.
You can take a Vitamin D supplement. nm

Vitamin D is very important
A lack of vitamin D is the cause of ricketts. It doesn't happen that often in the US any more because of all of the fortified foods we get, but if you don't go outside much at all, it can be a real concern. There was a story about a hugely obese man - like 900 pounds obese - who had horrible pain and it turned out to be a lack of vitamin D. THe only way your body can metabolize vitamin D is by exposure to sunlight.
Doctors always want to make sure that women who are older or at risk for osteoporosis take Calcium and Vitamin D. The Vitamin D helps the body metabolize the calcium.
You should probably take a calcium supplement as well, if you aren't already.
Hope your rib pain goes away!
Vitamin D deficiency?
Anyone ever been diagnosed with this?
My rheumatologist's office called this morning to tell me that my blood tests showed a deficiency. My doctor is going to call this afternoon to discuss it with me. Apparently, it's not so uncommon in regions that lack sunshine?
Which vitamin for hair and nails?
Is it vitamin D? My hair will only get to a certain length and seems like it stops growing. Any ideas on something to help it grow more?
Vitamin Water XXX flavor and
I go through about a pitcher a day of green tea that I make with raw sugar and honey. And, of course, Welch's -- it is so good for you.
LOL! Yogurt is good as it contains a lot of vitamin K
it helps with blood clotting.
If people have not enough blood platelets, then they suffer from
Thrombocytopenia.
No bashing, please.
I am only a humble MT who learned a lot through atudying and MTing.
Thanks!
Bet it had a pound of butter too;-)
I actually love the lady. What a hoot. Have to take my break from the ole computer during her show.
I read that a lack of vitamin D and boron can
cause psoriasis. The article said that a lot of vegetarians don't get psoriasis because they have a diet high in boron which helps with the conversion of vitamin D. It is because vegetarians eat food high in boron and vitamin D, i.e., veggies, fruit, etc, and the soild the veggies are grown in is high in these nutrients.
There was a post on here about helping psoriasis so I thought I would throw that in! Hope it helps.
Sorry, I meant ..'There are creams which contain vitamin K.'..sm
And, BTW, vitamin C and calcium are very good for preventing wrinkles.
Cranberry juice may work better than vitamin....

Yummy! Who cares how much butter she uses?
She's rich ($$$$$$$$$) at this point.... :) Not another show featuring cardboard and fake cooking sprays? Do we really need another show for "light eating"? Our elders lived long lives on lard...... :) Keep on cookin', just don't eat that heavy stuff every day/night! Enjoy....
I have OD'd on peanut butter fudge
I don't know why I do this every year. I just went downstairs for a drink and loaded up on smoked ham with a peanut butter fudge chaser. A moment on the lips, forever on the hips...
did you change from real butter
to something else?
Nope - always have used real butter
xx - I wonder if the butter is colder or at room temperature if that affects it.
peanut butter and pickles . . also.
peanut butter and Miracle Whip. . Also chocolate ice cream with uncooked oats mixed in it.
It was a peanut butter recall.

Is this the Vitamin Water that Coca Cola bought?
I had one for the first time today, fruit punch. Good stuff :)
The intake of vitamin K helps against spider veins. ..... sm
But be careful, do not take too much, only from food sources, yoghurt is a very good source of vitamin K.
There are creams which contain vitamin C.
If you want to take supplemental vitamin K in tablet form, first check with your doctor regarding the dosage.
I had some spider veins in my face, but those disappeared when I started to put vaseline in my face.
I had heard Vitamin D was a good source for bones,
of course and being as I along with others on here do not get out as much as we should sometimes, had heard maybe I should take. I have pain in my ribs (checked for other things and scans, x-rays turned out ok) so started this morning with 4000 units. Anyone else take and if so what dosage? My ribs were hurting before I got out of bed and since seem to be feeling some better.
A lot of gastric bypass patients have vitamin D deficiency
also iron, calcium, and B12. But I have known other people who also had a D deficiency.
Popcorn, homemade, with butter and a little salt

Nothing that good! But real butter makes everything better :-) (nm)

Peanut butter fudge recipe
When I was little my mom used to make the world's best peanut butter fudge. She used brown sugar in it. There was a quickie fudge recipe in the Mrs Clause cookbook that called for just chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, was thinking about trying something with that. Does anybody have a good brown sugar peanut butter fudge recipe?
peanut butter and banana sandwiches
or peanut butter milkshakes
peanut butter kiss cookies
I sent you an e-mail. Sorry mine didn't go through:( Good luck and have fun!!
Same here Austin peanut butter crackers
But not after my husband and daughter ate have the pack (didn't know about the recall before then).
Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit - sm
All this time I thought they were the same thing because at the roadside stand it said "cracklin pork", so I just thought it must be pork skins like I see in the store (and yes, they are with the potato chips). Guess this AL transplant has not even known there was a difference. Thanks for clearing that up. All I know is I cannot stand the sight or smell of either of them.
I have heard L-Lynsine (vitamin) is good to take. Supposedly it decreases sm
the time of outbreak, but also minimizes you from future outbreaks if you add it to your daily vitamin regimen.
Two egg whites fried in butter flavored spray and a cup SM
of hot Lipton tea with lemon. Same thing every morning, and God help me if I look in the canister and discover I am out of tea bags! That just can't happen!
Peanut butter? Works on gum. Thank goodness it was just her hair. nm

Sparse tonight - 2 pieces of bread w/butter & a Diet Coke. (nm)
:(
Make the sandwich open-face, no butter for grilling, or just wrap

I shred the beef and saute with a little finely diced onion and butter,
then add a bit of flour to make a roux and brown that lightly. Then warm milk to "cream" it. I like a bit of good paprika, sometimes the hot variety, at the end.
Granny Smith with lots of butter, sugar and cinnamon and a dash of cloves&nutmeg.

Got a creamed dried beef question. Do you find it best to saute the dried beef in the butter and
then add all the rest or do the cream part first and then add the dried beef at the end. Seems like both ways are in the recipes and just wondered which gets the best.
