NO ALOE VERA!!!


felt the need to post a new thread on this topics behalf! it seemed very underwhelming to read about how little people knew this on another thread...so i thought id step up....

I know we all think aloe vera is this great healing plant, but its a purgative chemical, which means it expells things that are not normally in the body, aka a growing foetus. its actually believed that aloe vera can help promote aborting the foetus and bringing on menstration...and as we all know, in ttc, that is the LAST thing you want happen!!!

so, that said, try not to get sunburns

Okay, what about St. John's Wart? Yay or nay?

Can you tell I'm running out of items to buy on Ebay?

It's excellent for depression. In fact it's the best anti-depressive out there. I can't seem to think why it would be bad, they quote the same benefits as with agnus and EPO in terms of relieving PMS effects.

I remember being told not to take SJW when I was on the pill as it can interfere with that. But for pregnancy I have no idea
