Interesting

So, I've been complaining lately about how tired I've been, though not loudly or vociferously because I know it's my fault for not getting to bed in a timely manner on school nights.

Last night, however, I dreamt that a certain friend recommended I try burdock root to help me relax and feel better. (She also recommended more iron for energy.) Burdock root itself is completely out of the blue, btw, as I have not been researching herbs or anything lately, and certainly knew nothing about it prior to this morning.

So, I looked up burdock root just now, and, well, it sounds like it would be a really good thing for me. And now I'm wondering if it'll be possible to find it fresh anywhere around here.

And, of course, I will need to eat more iron-rich foods for a bit. Anemia, which I am prone to, is a serious bummer, and it is possible it's nagging at me again.

ETA: Jesus, and I thought I was a conspiracy nut! The first link to burdock root (which I have since changed to webmd) was... beyond the pale for paranoia. Their "most popular" articles would be amusing if they were satirical, but I don't think they are. *backs away slowly, avoiding eye contact*
