Zoey is a naturalist. She had a stroke 3 years ago when she stopped taking her two prescription high blood pressure medications. She has tried soy isoflavone 100 mg supplements 2 daily for her hot flushes and night sweats but they have been ineffective. She wants to take Triest bid, which her natural healing book promotes. Since you are her neighbor, she thought she'd ask you what you thought. Your response is?
