Relax Into Success 
Great information, thank you!
You mention that all herbs and supplements are only to be taken for a period of 7-10 days. Is that 7-10 days every month, every other month, only when/if symptoms are present? Please clarify, thank you!
7 to 10 days and then take an week off and repeat if needed… herbs are potent … don’t take then unless you have a health challenge… heal with food first … Dr Haider 😀🙏🏻❤️
