Dandelion and Lasix

    Dandelion is an herb that is sometimes recommended along with conventional medicines because of its diuretic properties. Researchers think that dandelion's diuretic effect is due to its high potassium content. 

If your holistic medical practitioner recommends dandelion, they may first adjust the dosage of prescription medications that you are currently taking. If you're not currently being managed by a holistic health care provider, it's important to talk to your doctor about dandelion and any other herbal supplements that you may be taking. 

Dandelion can interact with several types of prescription medications including estrogen based contraceptives, prescription diuretics, antipsychotic medications, antidepressants and statins.

Venous Insufficiency

  Chronic venous insufficiency is a condition in which the veins in the legs don't work as they should. The veins are designed with valves which work similar to the valves that you would see in a pipe or elsewhere.

 Just as a valve in a pipe should allow water to flow in one direction, the valves that are placed in your legs also should only allow blood to flow in one direction. 

 However, patients with chronic venous insufficiency find that blood is also flowing back ways, so what happens is that excess blood collects in the legs. 

This causes discomfort and even pain. However, it is not regarded as a life-threatening condition.

Critical examination of sources

  Whenever you are told something or read something, always be aware that someone could be lying to you.

People unfortunately do tell lies in one in one conversations and when they're speaking to a lot of people.

 Don't assume that everything you hear, read or see in a platform is true or unbiased.

Ask yourself questions like:

Why are you telling me this?

Are you conveniently skipping any details?

Are you trying to trigger me?

Are you trying to persuade me towards a particular way of thinking?

Fish for ill cats

Fish supplies cats with essential amino acids that they need to survive. Fish helps to build up their joints and ensure that your cat's brain is working properly.
