• The only problem with grapefruit seed extract is that is has nasty preservatives in it unless you can find the organic one. I believe goldenseal is a fantastic natural antibiotic but as the plant is endangered it is more expensive and harder to find…

• I can see why you are satisfied eating so many bananas- they are very filling. I only have one for breakfast and I'm full! If I put one in a smoothie with another fruit and a bit of juice I cannot drink it all right away and it keeps me full for abo…
