Natural Health: Ever since I hit menopause my digestion seems to have slowed down

My 10-year-old son has developed a flaky, itchy patch of skin on his forehead, just under the hairline. Also, his scalp seems to be very dry. What would you suggest?

Flaking scalp can be the result of a number of different issues – anything from a reaction to foods or skincare through to seasonal change. During the winter months, we tend to use heating in our homes and in the workplace, which can really dry out the scalp and trigger flaking.
