My Chinese herbs
Here are my herbs for the phase that's supposed to help my menstruation clear out and clean house. Aren't they pretty and flowery looking? When I cook 'em they stink up the whole house. MAN FERTILITY took little sips of the other formula (for earlier part of the cycle) and declared it strange but okay. This one? After boiling the hell out of for 20 minutes, it gets pretty gooey and soupy. The taste? Even he agrees....blech....

My mother used to feed us all kinds of crazy Chinese herbs! I still get shivers thinking about the godawful taste ... and smell. And she is a patient woman, too--we'd spend hours facing off, me with my jaws stubbornly clamped shut.
But they're supposed to work incredibly well.
Oh yah, they smell like nuttin' else!!! But I kind of like the idea of the weird herbs...and then plus it makes great mulch when you're through. I have noticed some subtle changes in the bod. We shall see...
