Hey Alicia!
I hear you about the amount of pills
I'm starting to get into this routine of drinking teas, and I like how it lessens the amount I have to swallow in pill form
When I started to notice the thing with my esophagus, it started out feeling as if my pills got stuck in my throat. So I thought first that the emerging pain there was from the pills disintegrating in my throat rather than my stomach, but now that I stopped the spearmint tea I don't feel pain or pills in my throat...
Oh and that reminds me that I did read that mint can relax the muscles in the lower esophagus, so it could be that those muscles aren't pushing the pills all the way down and they get stuck...
I would think that you would be fine though, since you cycle the spearmint? I don't know..
Haha! I love that!
Yes I can't wait to see what effect saw palmetto will have on my body. Have you noticed any changes in androgen levels from using it?
Thank you sweetheart, good luck to you and yours too!
