Q & A: Bladder, Bowel, and cramping

Question(s):

Hello there….re products
 1- bwl -bld  –looks like it may cover bladder ?(bld) as well as bwl, but nothing mentioned.
2 – what do you suggest for
           a)trigger finger and for
           b) leg cramps beside lots of h2o and exercise. There is an Amish apple cider vinegar  product ( only from USA) and a homeo product in stores here.
 Thanks,  Bette

Answer(s):

BWL BLD – stands for Bowel Build.  Having the bowels work properly and be clean does have an effect on the bladder, but this formula really has nothing to do with bladder (good guess, tho’).
Cornsilk is good for bladder incontinence; Cranberry Buchu good for treatment & prevention of bladder infections; Uva Ursi good for toning and tightening, bladder cystitis.

For both trigger finger and leg cramps, one may need more Magnesium. I work with 3 types, Magnesium tablets, Magnesium Complex and Magnesium Malate. For this challenge, most people find that Magnesium tablets work best.
 
Apple cider vinegar is a good source of some minerals, especially Potassium, which can be good for cramps and spasms. Rather than ordering from the US, you may find just adding 1-3 Tsp. (5-15 ml.) pure, unpasteurized apple cidre vinegar to 1 cup room temperature or warm water and take your Magnesium, plus 1 Calcium Magnesium if needed,  with this. If this does not bring needed relief, please contact  me; there are other options. But I always like to start with the simplest first.
