As stated in the title, give it a try if you haven’t yet. I’ve been on PPI’s, fomatidine, tums you name it for about 4-5 years. I feel like I tried soooooo many natural remedies. I just randomly bought probiotic yogurt and aloe Vera juice on one of my grocery trips as another thing to try and after eating the yogurt for 2 weeks and drinking the aloe Vera juice when I have a feeling of possible acid, I’ve cut my symptoms down to like 10% what it used to be. I haven’t had to take anything for acid reflux which hasn’t been the case for me for years. Figured I’d post on here in hopes it might help someone else if your acid reflux was like mine
Not sure if they count as a traditional influencer but they have close to 300k followers and I see a lot of people actually getting influenced in the comments on their posts so I hope this is relevant to this sub.
They advertise themselves as a health education platform and promote everything “natural” but I find a lot of their stuff problematic. To clarify, I am all for veganism and to eat a plant based diet but they take it too far and advise against the use of ALL chemicals , like doctor-prescribed medication and even sunscreen. According to them ALL problems can be solved if you just stop eating meat and eat more fruits and vegetables. While this might be true, people need medicine and genetics is a thing.
I used to like their account initially because I wanted to improve my eating habits and I thought they were doing good work in promoting older, cultural traditions around eating, providing very interesting perspectives. But we aren’t living in the 16th century anymore and our environment today is vastly different than what it was before. We have problems like pollution, ozone layer depletion, even Covid, etc. People need to get their blood checked if they are losing too much hair and they need medicine if they have high BP. My problem here also is that they don’t give any disclaimers (about consulting a doctor or a nutritionist, etc) and talk about satvic eating as the one and only solution for everything!
Anybody know more about the two people behind this account? Their handle is @satvicmovement and the names of the main two people behind the page are Harsh and Subah.
Also, they sometimes post about god and “surrendering to god” and I (personally) don’t appreciate it because it feels a little preachy and as if they are trying to indoctrinate me (even with the similarities in faith) but I don’t hold this against them obviously, unless anyone knows if this is some kind of an agenda?!
I've been struggeling with sebhorreic dermatitis for 6 years now and it has affected my mental health in a way most of you already know, to the point i didn't want to work meet people or even get out my house, especially during winter months.I had dandruff on my hair and red and super flaky skin around my nose and eyebrows. Unfortunately I haven't discovered a cure, but a way to keep UNDER CONTROL in a super effective way. I've been using Equilibra ALOE VERA 98% (but i guess any other aloe vera gel could potentially work) for more than a month now and the results have been super efficient. Not only it keeps my dermatits under control but is also a natural gel (i have already tried the other creams from prescriptions, they only worked intemittently). So there is literally nothing to lose here because it doesnt damage your skin like most creams against sebderm and is also cheap (we have to live with this condition for the rest of our lives so it better be cheap). I use it twice a day before going to sleep and after washing my face in the morning. For my scalp i have been using a normal anti dandruff shampoo for the past 3 years, you can buy it in supermaket, its called CLEAR it costs like 2€. The secret it pretty much the CONSISTENCY you have to wash your hair every other day, otherwise the risk of dandruff increses. I hope it works for you too, because i know the struggle you are in. Please let me know if you have any questions or if it works for you too. It will make me very happy if i come to know that i helped even one single person. Thank you. Dont lose hope
Hello fellow scalp pickers,
I just started to put some aloe vera gel on my wounds on my scalp every time I want to further pick. This has been proven to work well for me and I felt it would be such a good thing to share it with you! <3 The gel itself is soothing with the cooling effect, and is not greasy so it doesn't require me to shampoo after it.
Peace out beautiful community! ;-)
EDIT after a relevant question : --> yes, the type of aloe vera gel that is usually used for sunburn

My teacher had that info in one of his slides. I swear though everywhere I look on the internet says it's not. He is wrong isn't he?
Im new to having plants and I don't know what to do. At first, my aloe plant not growing and then I moved it to a sunnier place and it started growing like crazy (doubled the number of leaves). Now, the bottom leaves are mushy and they have creases in them so much that they almost pinch off. At first I thought I was watering it too much, so I reduced the amount I watered them, but that didn't help. So then I tried watering them more, which helped the firmness of the higher up leaves, but did nothing for the already mushy ones at the bottom. So, any suggestions?
I planted some Aloe Vera, but it’s not guaranteed to drop seeds. Is there a feature that grows more in the garden if there is space for it?
