I am interested in knowing what treatments people have tried to cure or control their lupus other than prescription medicines.

I am tired of medicines and have been reading about alternative treatments.

Restarting this discussion... Has anyone had any experience with any other alternative forms of treatments for lupus other than prescription medications?

I have begun take 3 day baths in Epsom salt. It is supposed to help detoxify your body, rejuvenate it from fatigue, and decrease inflammation. Has anyone tried it?

@smokint Hi is it possible to purchase CBD where you live or do you get it online? It's kinda hard to get in my town, but I want to try it.

I have followed naturopathic medicine methods most of my life and when I was diagnosed with Lupus (by my NMD) I started from the beginning with a natural path. I take a high quality Omega 3 Fish Oil, Turmeric, and VitD3 daily. I drink lots of water with lime juice (I don't handle lemon well), some green tea, probiotics, lots of bone broth, rarely eat out, cook everything from scratch. When I feel weak, I add Vit C, Zinc, more D3. Most of the time I do pretty well - but am very careful to not overdue each day - I have not had a flare for about a year and half -- until last week. It's Spring here and patios were yukky from the winter, so I decided to blow them off and clean them up. Bad mistake - whatever was in the dust - pollen for sure, but more than pollen - it sent me into orbit. Have been in a flare ever since and no end in sight - drats.
