About MeAll about me ... and why I built this site... 
Well, hello, and welcome to my website.I feel a little shy about introducing myself, but thought you might like to know a little bit about the face behind natural-health-remedies-guide.com. My name is Charlotte. I live in a tiny village in Yorkshire, in the UK, with my fiancé, Ian, and our dog and cat. I have had M.E. (also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Post Viral Syndrome/C.F.I.D.S.) since January 2007, following a very nasty episode of flu (or something equally horrid!). This site is not just about M.E. though … it is about natural health remedies in general… My Story...When I first got ill, even sitting up, eating, talking or walking from room to room was a huge struggle…Conventional doctors, although some were sympathetic, quite frankly told me that there was nothing they could do to help. Some even pushed the ‘it’s all in your head’ card – terribly insulting, to both me and my family – I know full well when there is something physically wrong with me! (And M.E. has been classified by the World Health Organisation as a physical, neurological illness.) With this sort of attitude, I knew that any help would come from holistic remedies. I had been interested in ‘alternative health’ since my fiancé had cancer, a few years previously (incidentally, he has just been completely discharged and given the full all clear this week :o) - after 5 years!) But, I thought that natural remedies might be able to help me now… I started reading up about natural health remedies, and gradually completed practitioner courses in Herbalism, Nutrition and Flower Remedies from home, to give myself a really thorough understanding of the way that natural health remedies could assist my return to health. 
Improving my diet was my first step on the road back to health … Particularly, cutting out the foods which I was allergic to … and within just a few weeks, I could really feel the difference! I added supplements, herbal treatments and magnotherapy treatments to my health program, and again saw a steady improvement. I have also used plenty of other holistic remedies along the way… Although I still struggle with M.E. at times, I do feel like I improve a little everyday…
It really shows, and all my friends and family comment on the difference… And it’s not just my M.E. that has seen an improvement … little health niggles, such as indigestion and digestive problems, allergies, veruccas and sinus problems have all just faded into oblivion! Why I Built this WebsiteI wanted to share what I had learned about natural health remedies along the way – for all illnesses and health problems, not just for M.E. … and so this website was born.I really believe that natural and holistic remedies can help with every illness and condition, even if only in some small way … as well as giving you a better understanding of the workings of your own body, and a sense of control over your own health. I now work from home on this website, and also sell natural health products (some of the products and natural health remedies which have helped me so much in my own return to health). I have also adopted a retired greyhound, in the past few months – Ginger. (I think pets are a great healing therapy in themselves). I now enjoy relaxing walks with Ginger, out in the fields, everyday…
Little things I now take for granted, that a year ago I thought might never happen…! I hope that you find the information on this website useful, and that you, too, will soon be starting your journey back to full health! Wishing you Happy Healings! Hope you feel better soon.
