Re: Detoxing Radiation - Can Earthing Help?
3 days agoPositive Thinking + for Trigeminal Neuralgia and Many Types of Pain
3 days agoI was told by docs that I would be permanently in pain due to Trigeminal Neuralgia, so I prayed for a cure. Came across a doc's work (he passed away years ago and was discredited due to natural approach) who discovered it's a misfiring of the brain due to stress. It's called Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS). I was desperate and studied/applied it. It worked!!! Doctors were wrong. It IS curable! Learned that fear of the pain as well as attention to it feeds it. It's due to suppressed emotions also, so I allowed myself to cry. Had to learn to block out fearful, anxiety inducing THOUGHTS, take a deep breath, say "I'm safe" out loud when stressed (I know it's strange, but speaking it out loud tells the brain there isn't danger so it will eventually shut off the pain) and after consistently doing this over time, pain was gone. I was convinced the pain was physical, but that's another part that needs to be overcome. Apparently, this applies to most back pain, fibromyalgia, or any pain that travels to different parts of the body. I had to convince myself it's the brain misfiring even though it felt very physical. You're not broken and will heal. I didn't use any of the doctor's drugs and am free of that horrible season. Praise God for answered prayers and even better, I no longer stress about things nearly as much due to disciplining my thoughts, not being afraid to feel emotions, and managing stress with deep breathing and positive self talk. Really, these are things in the Bible (Philippians 4:6-8, Psalm 23:4,2 Timothy 1:7,2 Corinthians 10:5, Matthew 21:21, Proverbs 14:3, Proverbs 17:22, among others), so I guess I had the key to healing all along. I pray for anyone who reads this to be painfree.
Nasal Spray for Ocular Migraines
3 days agoOxymetazoline Nasal Spray
I know it is not really a very natural remedy, however, Nasal Spray has been a life saver at times for my ocular migraines. I use just one spray per nostril. I had viewed a youtube video that recommended trying it to relieve pressure on a certain nerve up behind the nasal cavities. When it works, it works quickly, in about 5 minutes. I cannot say that it always helps, but I would say about 60-70% of the time my vision is back to normal in about 5 minutes. It could be beneficial for you as well. I would not take the nasal spray daily, only occasionally because there can be side effects.
Re: Knee Pain
3 days agoI had partial meniscectomey surgery mid-February. I still have swelling and off-and-on pain, not always in the same place. I was told to continue the PT exercises on my own when they cut me loose, and I have done them daily since. Any idea when I'll be whole again? The stiffness from swelling and then the random pain are so annoying and I don't trust my knee to not give out. At what point do I go back to the dr about it? I've been told it can take a long time, but how long is too long? I'm 67, female and in good general health.
Re: BHT
3 days agoDetoxing Radiation - Can Earthing Help?
3 days agoDoes earthing/grounding help to detox radiation and repair the damage that the radiation caused? Be it x-ray, CT scan, PET scan, airport scan etc.?
If it does help, for how long should one ground after an aiport scan? How does one know when was all the radiation detoxed and damage repaired?
Earthing on a mat is as beneficial as earthing on the soil/sand/earth/grass? Some claim that man made earthing products are not effective or even harmful...

Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy for Long Haul COVID 19
3 days agoExcellent treatment for Long Haul COVID 19
When I developed severe fibromyalgia as a complication of COVID 19, I told everyone just that. I have complications of COVID 19 and it's called FibroCOVID, that's what it was labeled. It seems more and more people are presenting to their health care providers with an astronomical increase in neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's and other types of dementia. I have posted in the fibromyalgia thread "A New and Wonderful Treatment for Fibromyalgia" but it will also treat Long Haul COVID. It seems in some of us the COVID virus is still active in the oropharyngeal area and continues to replicate silently. The medical community has always known that viruses replicated in this area and this area has been very stubborn to treat, until now. Using Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy aka E A T, in this area is the best way to treat long haul COVID. I wouldn't be surprised if they start using another treatment in that area to completely destroy the virus, maybe UV light, laser, I don't know I'm not in research and America is VERY restricted when it comes to research as in other countries that don't have an FDA. A very good youtube channel to learn how to do EAT is "Self Care COVID 19/How to do E.A.T." Leaves Channel". She uses Lugol's Iodine but the original treatment in Japan used Zinc Chloride. The one that I found on Amazon was by Andersen Zinc Complex...it's done wonders for me. I now use it everyday but I started out using it every other day. Hope this helps anyone with this dreaded, debilitating condition. Don't be surprised if you get a Herx rxn when using it. Microbes leave toxins when they die off, thus the saying "it's going to get worse b/f getting better.

4 days agoThanks so much, Art. I successfully made a batch using vodka. I didn't adjust the amounts and it seemed to work out fine. It seemed to take a while for the melatonin to dissolve, but I just added the aloe gel and the melatonin all seemed to disperse evenly and then disappear/dissolve. I used an old hand sanitizer flip-cap bottle, and it worked well. Too soon to tell about the health benefits.
Beet Root Powder Capsules For High Blood Pressure
4 days agoAnother friend who had started on Carditone recently ran into the sinus issue problem and had to stop the Carditone to allow his sinuses to return to normal. He asked me if I could suggest anything else to help his high blood pressure that would work as well as the Carditone had worked for him.
I suggested he try Beet Root Powder (BRP) as it had worked for me and other friends. I told him that it hadn't worked as well for me as Carditone, but other friends had reported it working almost as well.
He went ahead and ordered this brand from Amazon :
I had explained to him that he would have to experiment with the dose to find the best dose for him. He told me he settled on 5 capsules (3 grams) all at one time per day and that this dose was keeping his blood pressure just below 120/80 whereas 4 capsules (2.4 grams) had kept his blood pressure just above 120/80.
My friend is now a happy camper again and he said the BRP wasn't causing him any side effects that he noticed other than it gave his urine a different odor. I also mentioned to him that he could buy BRP in bulk powder form and perhaps add it to yogurt or similar, but he would have to use a digital mg scale to measure out his dose accurately or find a scoop that would measure his 3 gram dose accurately each time. I explained to him that BRP may also offer other health benefits as discussed here :

Here is a relevant quote from the article :
Lowers blood pressure
Research suggests that dietary nitrate from beetroot may play a role in lowering blood pressure. However, factors such as age and sex can influence the efficacy of beetroot to lower blood pressure.
Improves gut health
A 2020 review e suggests beets contain bioactive compounds that may improve gastrointestinal health, modulate gut microbiota, and stimulate the metabolism and growth of probiotics.
Reduces oxidative and nitrative stress
Betalain, a plant nutrient found in beetroot powder, helps reduce oxidative and nitrative stress. Oxidative and nitrative stress comes from the presence of reactive oxygen or nitrogen species in the body. These chemicals can damage cells and DNA.
Inflammation often accompanies oxidative and nitrative stress. When inflammation becomes chronic, people may develop long-term diseases such as obesity, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes.
Researchers say that antioxidants, such as betalain, search for free radicals in the body that can cause damage and counter their effects. They also help cells defend themselves from stressors.
Belatains in beetroot powder may also protect liver and kidney function.

4 days agoRe: Apple Cider Vinegar for Eczema
4 days agoHi Rob,
That's wonderful you have found relief with ACV for your eczema on your hands. I also had eczema on the top of my right hand for some time. When I started to make and consume L-Gasseri and L-Reuteri in a form of yogurt it completely went away. If you look up Dr. William Davis or Dr. Berg on You Tube you will find information on how to make these into something very delicious. Dr. Davis has written a book, "Super Gut" that explains how these probiotics cure all kinds of health problems.
This is not yogurt but looks and tastes like it. I started making and eating the L-Reuteri first and then added the L-Gasseri. My eczema immediately started to go away but I still had a little bit after taking it for around 2 months. But I believe it is the L-Gasseri that completely healed me because after I started consuming that it was like within maybe three days it was completely gone and has not come back. There is also another probiotic Dr. Davis recommends to take and is called Bacillus Subtilis which I am just now starting. He explains the different bacteria and how they each work in our bodies making us well.
Apple Cider Vinegar for Eczema
4 days agoHi, I have had eczema on the back of my hands for at least 8 years. And no success with treatment. Someone I know recommend a glutten free diet which I have switched to for several months. It has helped. However, ACV has had the biggest impact. I have filled a large jar with about 75% water and 25% ACV I dip my hands in here several times a day and let them air dry. The results have been remarkable. And when I stay on my diet and dip my hands at least once a day, the itching is totally gone. May you find relief.
Ted's Remedies
4 days agoDear Earth Clinic, I am constantly disappointed to see how much Ted's invaluable and still extremely relevant contributions have been reduced on the website. If I remember correctly there was a whole lot more prior to whenever the website was changed / upgraded. In the wake of AI, disinformation, evermore criticism & dumbing down of natural remedies I feel it is crucial that ALL of Ted's contributions are listed. He is still a giant in the natural health world and should be presented as such.

Cucumber for Stomach Cramps
4 days agoCucumber for treating stomach cramps:
I sometimes suffer from severe stomach pain caused by nervous stomach spasms. A while ago, I accidentally ate a cucumber while I was experiencing pain, and I was surprised to find that the pain stopped immediately after I finished eating it (it was faster than any painkiller I had been taking). Since then, I haven't taken any painkillers, but eat a cucumber as soon as I feel the pain, and it has never let me down.

1. Fill your jar with dried mullein.
2. Pour the alcohol or vinegar over the mullein until it is completely covered.
3. Seal the jar with the lid and set the mixture in a dark cool spot to allow the infusion to get started quickly.
4. Shake the jar every day for four-six weeks.
