Probiotics

One of the beautiful things about Mexico is that ALL of these products –. grains, yogurts, etc. – are available from small co-ops, family farms, little health food shops, and other small-scale vendors, without having to resort to the commercial sugar/crap filled stuff. It's really worth it to ask around seek out markets in each place, which are often held in certain parks on one or two days of the week, and going to these places can be an adventure in itself.

In Oaxaca city, we found an excellent natural health food store,well stocked with quality organic produce and natural medicines. Nearby, at Llanno Park [probably got the name wrong] there was a huge three day alternative health fair under big white 'circus' tents.
Otherwise, I had to scrutinize the products in many parts of south central Mexico and the Yucatan. Too many salves and ointments were based on petroleum products and camphor.Peyote and hemp ingredients were also prevalent in many products.

Nearby, at Llanno Park....

Llano Park (as in ¨Park of the Plain¨) is correct.

hemp ingredients

Last night I was talking to the expat from Jerez who swears by the marijuana cream they sell for 50 MXN here.

Thanks mclarjh for the 'minor' spelling correction. Seriously. Nearby is that excellent little health food store operated by nice people some of whom speak passable English-much better than my muy pobre espanol.Across, is a good pizza place and just before is an excellent, reasonably priced traditional family run Mexican restaurant.
Re hempingredients, we met two American couples who claim medicinal marijuana saved their lives and marriage. One couple from Texas even moved to Colorado to get the stuff. The skeptic in me feels that it is a tad hyped up and maybe exploited.

What exactly is wrong with hemp ingredients, though?
