NATURAL CURES - MORE THAN HOME REMEDIES
On these pages are natural cures for internal problems
that we have used ourselves or have verified with health books. These
alternative cures may use herbs, pure essential oils, vitamins, and/or food. They are
more than home remedies, folk medicine, or old wives' tales!
Talk to your doctor before making any major change. Starting
a natural remedy may require your doctor to change the dose of your prescription
medicines. You can read more about this in our articles.
JUICES GREATLY AFFECT YOUR MEDICATIONS
Lots of people take their medications with orange juice at
breakfast. But, medication should not be taken with juice of any kind.
Almost all juices will cut the effect of medication by 50
percent. When you need Vicodin for extreme pain, you certainly do not want any of
the few pills you received to work at only 50 percent strength. Medication can
be taken four hours after drinking juice, or take your pills with water at breakfast
and drink your juice with lunch four hours later.
The exception to this new finding is grapefruit juice. Grapefruit
juice will increase the effect of your medication, and you should not take any
medication for 3 days after drinkiing it.
These results came from studies on statins (for high cholesterol),
antibiotics, anti-cancer drugs, and antihistamines. Considering this variety, it is
likely that all medications are affected by juices.
If you gave up certain medications because they seemed way too
strong or way too weak, but you were drinking juice, you might ask your doctor about
trying again following these rules.
