Hey guys! It's been a while since I've posted a note. I'm new. I've been doing a lot of research the past three weeks. I've even been dreaming about it - that's bad. It seems herbs works for some and others are still trying. I figure it's worth a try. I'm going to order fenugreek and saw palmetto. I figure taking those along with massages is a good start. If I need to adjust, I'll consider it later. What do you think? Also, I read caffeine isn't good with the herbs. What about caffeine free coke? Is it just the caffeine that's bad or the carbonation? Just wondering because I'm addicted to drinking cokes. By the way, I'm about 5'6", 138lbs, and an A cup. I'm 32 years old with two kids. Well, I hope this works. clayjar

It's the caffeine.

Hi Clayjar! I am a AVID Diet Pepsi drinker. I originally started BE with HBA, and they recommended no POP or caffiene 1 hour before supplement and 1 hour after. Worked GREAT for me! I do follow that guideline STRICTLY btw. Greenbush states that they have not found any evidence that caffiene or carbonation effect the strength of the herbs. I did the "products links" page, and personally checked EVERY company listed. I saw ranges from 1/2 hour to no pop at all! Some said caffiene/pop did not cause adverse reactions. So...the jury is WAY out on this one. So...this has been an ongoing controversary on the board. Many of our success do drink caffiene, some do not. GO WITH YOUR ADDICTION! My 2 cents...cha-ching!

Thanks for the reply, Fawn. That's good to know. When I was pregnant, I drank caffeine free cokes and it wasn't bad. Have a great day! ;D clayjar
