If you need expert professional assistance, you should seek the services of a competent wholistically trained health care practitioner. Depending on the condition being treated, it may be necessary to use the treatments recommended in conjunction with other medications, as prescribed by your medical practitioner.

"When I was a chief physician at the Hotel Dieu Hospital, Paris, some 3,500 patients passed through my hands during a year. Before my term expired I tried the experiment of giving one-half of the patients that were present no medicine at all; the rest the usual medical treatment. The former were given, instead, only what is known as Food and Home Remedies and, to my unbounded surprise, they all got well — not a single death, while among those receiving medical treatmAents the customary number of deaths occurred. A second trial yielded a like result, and I was converted. Ever since I have given but little medicine to any patient".
