Hi everyone!
I'm going to be out of town for 10 days and I won't really be able to do my NBE routine until I get back
but I just thought I'd share an interesting technique I found. This is from a really old Ayurvedic book that was full of these amazing natural herbal cures for stuff, everything from a common cold to diabetes. I was super surprised to find something about NBE!!
The main technique was one about lotus seeds. I tried looking it up online and there doesn't seem to be much (if any) research about the link between lotus seeds and NBE - it's included as something that helps NBE, but it doesn't really say why. I read there are phytoestrogens in lotus stem/seeds, so maybe that's it?
Anyway, I got the instructions translated from the Ayurvedic book. Here it is:
Step 1
Soak the seeds at night
Step 2
The next morning, peel the skin off the seeds and, if you have the whole stem, remove the green leaves (you can skip the last part if you just bought the seeds)
Step 3
Dry the seeds in the sun (or until they are completely dry... may take a day or so)
Step 4
After they are completely dry, grind the seeds down into a fine powder
Step 5
Have 5g of the lotus seed powder in a cup of milk - drink that once in the morning and once at night
-for lunchtime, have 1 tsp of the lotus seed powder in fresh yogurt
Apparenty, this method was successfully used in the olden days and results start to show relatively soon.
Does anyone have any info about this or has heard about this? I found it very interesting. I wonder what the significance of the seeds + dairy is?
If anyone wants to give this a shot or incorporate it into their routine, lotus seeds can be bought from pretty much any Asian store. Usually when I read about something Ayurvedic, I believe it - that branch of medicine has been around for thousands of years (and even personally I've had lots of success with Ayurvedic healing methods) so I think that it must have some validity! So I will probably give this technique a try when I get back from my trip and I can report my results with the seeds if anyone's interested.
Good luck everyone!

) because I thought that we don't even know what's happening to me, and what the hell are some herbs going to do? 
Yeah, OK there! Obviously I didn't expect that to be true, but I took the concoction anyway. 
), but that's because we've all been so conditioned to believe that the only things that help are pharmaceuticals, which is so laughably untrue. People prefer pills because it's a quick fix - societally, we're a very impatient group of people. It's the same thing with NBE - people laugh at the concept of NBE and say the only way you can increase breast size is through surgery and you're an idiot to think otherwise. This forum is enough proof that that's untrue. Augmentation is a quick fix, NBE requires patience and faith which is a lot harder to have.
