What everyone else said. I've also been adding a teaspoon of flax seeds on my salads or cereal. You wont need more, trust me lol.

I started eating granny smith apples and pumpkin seeds (not together just in the same day) and I swear it made it all better. I have no idea which one did the trick but it doesn't hurt anymore so I don't care.
