Dear Bob Liebert,

I'm 18 years old, I've been diagnosed with trichomonas, are there any herbal teas or products to help me out w/ this problem of mine??

Thank you soo much*
Brenda

Dear Friend,

Taking ECHINACEA/GOLDEN SEAL extract during acute bouts of infection will aid in bacterial overgrowth (that leads to a lot of the symptoms, though it in itself is a protozoal infection). SQUAW VINE extract taken daily. Use the URAID Formula for any urinary tract symptoms. We have a fresh GARLIC extract that would be good to take daily. Take (or eat) live yoghurt cultures. For acute vaginal infection douche with diluted apple cider vinegar from the health food store. And wear loose underwear.

Yours in healing,
Bob Liebert, herbalist

You can buy these herbs and many more in the Formula and Single Herb sections of the Teeter Creek Herb website. Herbs that don't appear in the Formula or Single Herb lists can usually be requested in the "Message" section at the bottom of the order page.
