Next time you have a question regarding a health issue, try mercola.com for an answer. I personally use this site very often as he is one of the leading forces in natural medicine with a conventional medicine background. You can also sign up for his free twice weekly newsletter.
 
Dr. Joseph Mercola qualifications:
 
Dr. Joseph Mercola is an osteopathic physician, also known as a DO. DOs are complete physicians who, along with MDs, are licensed to prescribe medication and perform surgery. But DOs bring something extra to the practice of medicine. Osteopathic physicians practice a "whole person" approach to medicine, treating the entire person rather that just the symptoms, with a focus on preventive health care. Dr. Mercola is also board-certified in family medicine and served as the chairman of the family medicine department at St. Alexius Medical Center for five years.
 
Mercola.com statistics (taken from the site):

·	Mercola.com is actually the world's most popular natural health newsletter and it’s a free resource
·	Over 550,000 people, including 25,000 health care professionals, receive Mercola email health newsletter
·	6 million Mercola.com pages are viewed monthly to help answer health questions

Mercola does flog his products on the site which he obviously recommends but don’t let that get in the way of finding some possible answers towards better health.
