I've actually used James' formulas for years and really like them. When he came out with the capsules I decided to try them. He's really outdone himself. The convenience is great and I all I have to take is 2 capsules three times a day - not 10. The bottles last me one month (unless it's a formula that I also give my pups - I go through those a little faster) I've been reading through James’ posts and recall his mentioning that he does not use teas medicinally very often since the heat can destroy many medicinal qualities of the herbs. I found the post again at http://curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=1865700#i
I use the Super Gingko Green, Bone & Joint, Thyroid and Adrenal. My dogs are on the Bone & Joint and Super Ginkgo Green. My Dad took the Sugar Balance for about a year. He was on a prescription that cause him to become diabetic (can't remember what that drug was but it was for the protate). His blood sugar was shooting up over 400 and the cardiologist said it was ok to try the herbs. It took about 10 months but he no longer takes the drug Prandin and doesn't need the herbs either. The herbs seem to have corrected the problem?
Now my Dad is in home hospice suffering iodine poisening from the drug Amiodarone. It threw him into a hyperthyroid state. They cut back the dose by 50% and it threw him into a hypothyroid state. We have put him on the Thyroid Tonic and he is getting a little stronger day by day. I'm praying for the best.
As far as what you should take, contact James and discuss it with him since it depends on the state of your health and symptoms.
Best wishes to you.
