MYTH!

“Anyone claiming to be able to cure endometriosis with whatever product they are selling should be considered skeptically. It’s improper to say they “cure” the disease as there is no cure. What they are doing, if successful, is relieving the symptoms of endometriosis. It is common sense that a healthy diet and excercise can boost your immune system and make you feel better all around. However, there are many unscrupulous people who are willing to prey on people in pain by selling gimmicks or, worse yet, medication they do not fully understand. Before you try any new diet, excercise, or medication discuss it with your doctor”.
Endometriosis.net writes: “Currently, there is no scientific consensus on the effect of utilizing herbs and supplements for endometriosis and its related symptoms. However, herbs and supplements can impact different individuals in different ways, and some may experience relief from symptoms when using certain herbs or supplements in a healthy and safe manner.”
There are a couple of well-known endometriosis organisations out there strongly selling their viewpoint that people should be on certain types of diets and supplements, and that such diets and supplements can prevent endometriosis. My opinion of these doctors and organisations is not high as a result, since endometriosis cannot be prevented – we are born with it.
