[YEA] 08/07/2008: Dennis from Dillingham, Alaska writes: "Ok I know this is not about lupus but in a way it is , iv always been interested in it .that is my sister died from it and I did a lot of research on it. I thought until I read here about it on this site. I hope this will help you what I have found out. I'm in the Philippines now . Iv been eating green bananas don't laugh, nobody here eats green bananas until I got here. its about Resistant Starch and green bananas are the best. Good bacteria eat it, then the bad bacteria and viruses are killed and pushed out. A lot of diseases come from our stomach. Well Marcia's brother Mitchie has diabetes type 2 for over a year. For the past 4 weeks his blood sugar remains normal with out medication and he does not eat a diabetic life style. he even drinks alcohol and his blood sugar remains normal. Yes he is eating green bananas. Now there's a guy next store that had his big toe amputated and the doctor wants to amputee his foot but he said no. it could not heal an open sore on his foot yes he is a diabetic 1 he takes shots. He could not work bed ridden So I got him on green bananas and his sore is healing and now is walking around and working. I have him using silver water for his foot too. Now that is something I think do some research on your own on the digestion system and especially on Resistant Starch."
11/18/2008: Rhonda from Tallahassee, FL replies: "A few green bananas may be okay, but be warned that excessive consumption of green bananas has been previously linked to development of congestive heart failure due to heart fibrosis. It was speculated it to be due to heart valve disease/serotonin."
EC: Rhonda, would you kindly cite your source? We cannot find any documentation to validate this. Thanks.
11/19/2008: Pat from Birmingham, England replies: "As Earth Clinic requested - I am also curious to learn of any research regarding heavy consumption of green bananas. I am also curious to learn the following: in what eaten form can over- consumption affect one's health and in what form is it healing as used in the Phillipines? I am guessing that it must be cooked as eating green bananas is not likely.
Incidentally, in the Caribbean boiled green bananas is a staple in the diet. I cannot refer to any statistics but I am familiar with people who consume it a few almost daily and the live past 80 years.
I am very eager to learn more about this as well.
Thanks in advance.
Pat"

Someone told me if his sugar went up high, to give him some green beans to eat. I tried it and it worked. Now he eats green beans as much as he can and it does lower his sugar levels."

[YEA] 08/24/2007: PAM from Kansas Ctiy, MO writes: "I LOVE THIS WEBSITE. THE THOUGHT OF LOSING SO MANY LOVED ONES RECENTLY MAKES ME VERY SAD. HAD I KNOWN ABOUT EARTH CLINIC, PERHAPS THEY WOULD STILL BE HERE. I HAVE BEEN USING SEVERAL DIFFERENT REMEDIES. I TRIED THE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE METHOD FIRST. I USE IT IN MY WATER MOSTLY, BUT SOMETIMES I USE THE SPRAY PUMP. I SMOKE HEAVILY AND MY BREATHING HAS CHANGED SO MUCH FOR THE BETTER. I HAVE MUCH MORE ENERGY AND OVERALL FEEL GOOD. I AM DIABETIC AND HAVE VERY DRY PEELING FEET. I SOAK MY FEET IN ENOUGH WATER TO COVER THE TOP OF MY FEET AND ADD ABOUT 1/2 C. PEROXIDE TO THE WATER AND SOAK ABOUT 30 MINUTES OR LONGER IF I HAVE THE TIME. AFTER 2 TIMES, I COULD SEE MY FEET START TO HEAL. ALSO, I FOUND 3% PEROXIDE WITHOUT STABALIZERS AT THE FAMILY DOLLAR. I CAN TASTE THE DIFFERENCE. THANK YOU SO MUCH."
10/12/2008: Lacy from Fayetteville, AR replies: "Someone talked about Hydrogen Peroxide. In what way did they use it orally they did not say."

[YEA] 02/23/2008: Omar from Khobar, Saudi Arabia writes: "Hello, My name is Omar, and I am from Saudi Arabia. First of all I'd like to express my appreciation for such valuable rich site. What I want to share with you is about using honey on the skin of a diabetic. As you know, an injury could be very fatal for a diabetic. My father developed a very late stage of diabetes. Once he had an injury in his hand, and the wound developed very badly. The doctor put him under a very strict diet with daily dressing for the wound, by water and salt. We know from our relegion that Honey is a cure, in general, and for specific health problems like dierea. So we tried to apply honey, after washing the wound and surrounding area with water and salt, on the wound(externally on the skin) that had 1.5 cm height full of buzz. We did this every day, continously for 10 or 15 days. We were amazed to see the wound noticably decreased in height and buzz material started to disappear from the first day of application. The wound was completely healed with no scars or a trace that there was a wound in that area.Thank you for readig and hope this was useful. Omar, Saudi Arabia."

[YEA] 01/24/2008: Brenda from Albertville, AL writes: "i had surgery in Nov.,2007 to remove damaged breast tissue caused from a car accident. a couple weeks after surgery, I had what looked to be a blood blister. It proceded to open up, drain and cause considerable pain and redness accross almost the entire breast. The cream the Dr. gave me seemed to keep the area too moist and it kept oozing. After talking and research I decided to try honey. The area which had started to look like a diabetic ulcer or bedsore, looked better the next morning , I continued to use about 1/4 tsp of raw honey on a cotton pad, I just placed it so the honey would be sure to get completely into the wound. It has been a little over a week and my Dr. was amazed at how well it is now healing."

LEMONS OR LIMES WITH SALT AND PEPPER
[YEA] 09/21/2006: Anj from London, UK writes: "Cut a lemon or lime into halves or slices, sprinkle about 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon of salt and same amount of black pepper. roast/ oven bake/direct on gas fire/ barbecue/ cover it and micowave for 40 seconds, salt and pepper side on top till bubbly juice comes out. Let it cool down but don't let it go completely cold, it should be hot. Suck with the pulp direct from the lemon slices/halves as the peel has secreted some juices that you need. Same method can be used with sour oranges or tangerines.
This recipe came from my mum who used it on all her kids as natural alternative which would not give any side effect, to cure headaches, migraines, cough and colds, flu, as well as when someone feels sick as if they want to vomit. This is a ideal alternative medicine for diabetics and ideal for everyone as you don't have to go shopping, everything you'll have in your home when you have any of these problems. All of us brothers and sisters have been using this all these years, may be it might help someone who wants to try natural alternatives which would not give them any side effects especially if they are diabetics."

[YEA] 03/24/2007: Rev. Danny from Richmond, Virginia writes: "The published testimony given by Mr. Newell Usher was just what GOD ORDERED for me as confirmation that I too am doing the right things to Keep My Healing and stay on track. EVERYTHING that he has done, I currently DO."
| | | |
[YEA] 11/19/2005: Newell Usher from Ocala, Florida writes: "When I had to go to the hospital due to shortness of breath after over indulging eating a couple pounds of large purple grapes in one day, and pigging out on some Italian food afterwards with double brandy manhattans and merlot with dinner, (happy hour 2 for 1 ) they pumped me full of lasix and put me on a fluid restricted diet with continued lasix. My blood sugar surged to 565 and so the pumped me with insulin and shortly thereafter more lasix. Well every time they gave me insulin followed with lasix, my sugar went back up. And I knew I was dehydrated with lasix removing more water with bonded minerals, but leaving most to the sugar. My conclusion was that the higher density of sugar caused by the lasix fluid separation explained why this happened.
The doctors would not believe me. And were quite argumentative. Of course I do not like the pill and cut healthcare as I've been there done that and cured myself time after time, doing the opposite of their says. In three days they could only get my sugar down to around 400, a couple mid 300 readings. So they released me with prescriptions for lasix and insulin.
Well I discarded the prescriptions, and formulated a better plan. First I thought I had to cleanse my body so that the insulin receptacles could work as there is no evidence that my pancreas is failing. And I reasoned that if my body was cleansed of toxins my blood sugar would come down as it would properly absorb. And so first I hydrated myself with lots of pure spring water, drinking whenever I was thirsty with no other liquids, except fresh vegetable juices, and took chelators CoQ10, 100s twice daily with healthy doses of E and C; and some other vitamins and minerals and veggie juices, adding noni juice and went on a heavy veggie/fruit alkaline diet, almost no carbs, other than what was in the fruit, and veggies mainly broccoli, brussell sprouts, garlic, onion, eating only the outside skin of baked potatoes, and lots of fresh peppers, all kinds, eating subway lunches several times with tuna and all veggies, excluding salt,. (I use a bit of sea salt for minerals on hard boiled eggs. I eat one with my oatmeal for the nutrition) . Lots of salads bathed in Apple Cider Vinegar with mother and Safflower oil on cucumbers, green lettuce, celery, lots of tomatoes, some beets, and a few olives and pickles. I did eat sweet potato, one meal and some half slices of pumpkin pie, but only ate small helpings (2-4 oz)of fish and turkey for protein. Also I had slice of whole wheat bread/day, usually with a sub.. For fruit I ate two bananas a day and 1 whole fresh orange and a whole tomato each day, and a few 2 or 3 grapes, and occasional honey dew melon slices. 2 or 3 1-inch slices.
I added oatmeal or bran flakes for breakfast with 1-2 teaspoons of cinnamon and 1-2 teaspoons of cilantro, and a teaspoon of honey, sometimes, and 1/2-1 teaspoons of cayenne pepper on meat, veggies and in veggie juice, and some chicken noodle soup, a couple times, and snacked in between on 1/2 cup of veggie juice in water in the afternoon and a second snack of 1/2 cup of bran cereal at night. Also I added two teaspoons of flaxseed oil and one of wheat germ on my cereal.
I supplemented this low fat, low carb diet with Dandelion, Quercetin, Green tea and Lysine, BetaSita sterole and HGH. Also I drink noni juice 2 or 3 oz each day. I had been taking vitamins, Flaxseed oil, wheat germ, BetaSita sterole, HGH and noni juice for several years with a multiple and some other vitamins, Alpha Lipoic acid, calcium/magnesium, chromium, etc.
I do take minimum doses of an ace-inhibitor, lisinopril (taking cayenne with it made me cough, so I moved them four hours apart) and maxide and 3 10mg potassium tablets each day. I had been taking 6 pepsid acs per day but after my hospital stay I no longer needed it. No other prescription of drug store meds. I don't even take tylenol. I am very pain okay, but rarely have aches or pains that hydrating with water doesn't't cure.
In just a few days my sugar dropped down to 200 and after 3 weeks it normalized in the 80 to 150 range. I take it morning and night. Also I hydrate myself with 2 glasses of water 30 minutes before I take it. And after using the alcohol swab (pure sugar) I rinse off the needle and my cleansed finger, dabbing the water off on a cleanse uncontaminated cloth to eliminate the contamination of the alcohol swab before taking my sugar. Before doing this I had higher readings.I can't believe the marvelous results. I know that before I went to the hospital, over a year ago it was around 400, but I just rationalized that it was the booze I was drinking. So far I've stayed off the booze but today, for the first time, I did have ½ slice of pecan pie, and a slice of pumpkin bread, at Bob Evans with my fish and broccoli. And with my big salad and 3-slices of very sweet melon, I ate a big slice of a veggie pizza with hamburger added, just to see what would happen, and tonight my sugar was 120 four hours later. Just thought I'd share these wonderful results with you. I do walk most every day a mile or two and am a 38 year-old survivor of botched open heart surgery with Hepatitis C from bad transfusions so they say, a heavy drinker for over 30 years before they capture me on blood pressure meds about 8 years ago, and now at 72 I feel like a 4 year old kid. It all failed six years ago and I did IV Chelation Therapy for 6 months, four years ago. I got to where I could play tennis, but have since slowed down a bit and they say I have congestive heart failure with the heart only 1/3 efficient. But I'm careful to not heavy lift or over eat, usually. And miraculously I also grew a collateral artery around the blocked one they found a couple years ago. Anyway that's my story
I would be honored to answer any questions or discuss my own natural therapies with any one who for healing purposes would like to contact me. "

[YEA] 07/18/2008: Rod from Los Angeles, California writes: "hello,
I was looking at your site and came across your use of apple cider vinegar for diabetes. An excellent curative for many things, I learned about its uses in Connecticut when my Uncle gave it to hunting dogs and miracles occurred. I believe that oatmeal is very, very good for diabetics and if taken three times a day it can even relieve diabetic coma. My father was in a diabetic coma, unable to be still enough to have an IV and I fed him oatmeal (put it down his throat-sometimes at the risk of his choking) and he came back to life quickly. After that his Doctor became convinced that the oatmeal had a major part in his recovery.
My Best,
Rod Hewitt"

[YEA] 08/06/2008: Reid from Herrin, IL writes: "Diabetes:
I was diagnosed about a year ago. I was put on metformin. I found that taking 2 caps of turmeric with each meal dropped my sugar levels to normal after 2 hours of eating. I found that taking 4 cap. of turmeric with metforman once a day dropped my sugar levels too low around 60.
I now am off all prescription diabetes medicine. The way I did it was I took chromium normal dose for 30 days. Tumeric with food for 30 days. Ginger and cinnamon with meals for 30 days. After that I stopped the metformin.
I watch my diet and don't over eat and stopped ALL sodas. My levels I check once a week now in the morning (fasting) and they are allways under 100. Before over 130."

[YEA] 10/23/2008: Donald from Houston, USA writes: "I recently talked to a gentlemen in Houston working for a Federal agency solving problems with Hurricane Ike.
He told me he had Diabetes and had been taking medicine for the ailment for years. He met a 90 year old lady that told him that his organs will soon be weakened with these chemicals he is taking and he needs to stop taking those medicines and do something that the old folks did mayn years ago that worked concerning Diabetes.
The answer is YELLOW DOCK TEA. That is right--this little know plant's roots is made into a tea and steady use eliminates diabetes.
Here is proof. The gentlemen indicated he started taking YELLOW DOCK TEA and after one month or so, the Diabetes symtoms we all but gone. He is taking it now and continues to get better and better.
My own investigation of Yellow Dock indicates it is not to be taken by the pregnant and those suffering from liver or kidney disease.
For everyone else--Go for it. It is very inexpensive. The cost is $3.65US for 24 packets. You can get it on the net....
Blessings to All,
Donald Boyance"
