Try Una de Gato, or Cats Claw.   It is a bark from a peruvian vine and you 
make it into a tea.   Also dandelion works well, and there are others. 
Herbs are not like drugs.  One size does not fit all.   You need to GO to a 
good herbalist and let he or she advise you.   Look into Susun Weed's 
website and books.
