8 days agoRe: Cerebellous Ataxia Remedies Needed
8 days agoThank you very much Art. Now my mother don t take any medication. She gave up gradually medication, and now is free of this. She took three years gingko biloba, powder, but since this spring, I wasn t very careful and she didn t took. After this vertigo attack she took betaserc and piracetam, a month. And I gave her gingko biloba, but not intensive. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I will try melatonin, like you said and gingko biloba extract, not just powder. And I will verify her level of D vitamine, 25OH....Thank you again. God bless you.
Re: Butchers Broom for Foot Edema
8 days agoI find butcher's broom helpful as well, but can't take even 1/10th of what you're taking without developing restless legs and somewhat cold extremities.
It is helpful though for swollen veins, and especially ulcers on one's feet or ankles from venous insufficiency, which is what can happen if edema gets out of control.
CKD Questions for Art
8 days agoHi Manuel,
In the article I included the link to a study that used sodium bicarbonate. Here is a quote showing the dose used :
' Oral sodium bicarbonate supplementation was given at a dosage of 1.82 ± 0.80 g/d, whereas the control group received standard treatment. '
Warning :
Because hypertension can sometimes be the cause or contributing factor to CKD, this dose will have to be reviewed and adjusted by your doctor after your doctor makes sure that your blood pressure is well controlled before starting you on sodium bicarbonate, as it contains salt which can potentially increase hypertension. I am not a doctor and can not make that dose adjustment for you.
As far as other supplements, I already mentioned three that suggest potential benefit in CKD, that your doctor is likely to approve and should be more than helpful in managing the CKD.

Dietary Changes for Acne
9 days agoI noticed my acne cleared up when I minimize butter, milk, cheese and flour. I use avocado oil and a mixture of coconut flour and almond flour when baking. Sometimes I'll blend cooked chickpeas with the egg in the blender to add to the batter. I eat fruits and vegetables like salads, sweet potatoes, carrots and broccoli and low fat meats or fish. I also cook chicken in an air fryer. According to the following link dairy increases sebum production which causes acne. Avoid white flour, processed foods and dairy. Search on the following link to access the video and information from the DW In Good Shape show.

CKD Questions for Art
9 days agoI carefully read all your posts I am doing the 5 steps you recommend for the CKD as some were in my usual schedule. In a post above you say " My full list of supplements for CKD is very lengthy (29) " Can you send me or post the list? If withËTMquantity better yet. Also whichËTMwould be, from you experience, the milligrams of Sodium Bicarbonate to takefor the CKD pausing of 20% effect of the graph of NIH? With great appreciation for your effort in helping people: It is a blessing which humanity should imitate instead of fighting with each other.. Manuel
Re: Cerebellous Ataxia Remedies Needed
9 days agoHi Eugenia,
So since you are lacking an actual diagnosis for your mother, it seems you want to concentrate on the vertigo issue? If that is the case, not just giving vitamin D3, but making sure that her 25 OH d level is very well into the upper reference range as optimal vitamin D level can help with vertigo as discussed here :
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10880126/
Here are two relevant quotes from the human study :
' Among 38 patients, 37 were followed up for 6 months and 30 for 12 months. Significantly higher serum vitamin D levels were observed in the vitamin D group compared to the placebo group at both the 6â€month and 1â€year followâ€ups (p < .001 at each timepoint). The recurrence rate was lower in the vitamin D group than in the placebo group after 6 months (p = .008) and 1 year (p = .003). '
' Vitamin D supplementation, in the absence of calcium, may be beneficial for patients prone to recurrent BPPV episodes, particularly when serum vitamin D levels are suboptimal (PRE20181024â€001 '
For another consideration, the following study may be of interest to you regarding the use of Ginkgo Biloba Extract (GBE) + balance training, which you did not mention as two that your mother is currently utilizing :
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8669892/
Here is a relevant quote from the human study :
' Over 12 weeks, the combination of balance training with VNF and Ginkgo biloba dry extract EGb 761 reached a clinically relevant improvement of age-related vertigo and dizziness with a good pharmacological safety profile. '
Melatonin may also be useful for its potent antioxidant and anti inflammatory effects in vertigo as discussed here:
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8009714/
Here is a relevant quote from the link :
' Based on the data included in this review, it seems obvious that the use of melatonin in the acute phase of vertigo can be highly effective, although more studies and clinical trials are needed. However, despite the fact that the effect in humans may be more limited than in laboratory animals, it is evident that the adjuvant use of melatonin with other drugs could not only improve the vestibular symptoms of acute vertigo crisis but also prevent the increase of doses of commonly used drugs with the consequent increase in pharmacological toxicity. This type of combined treatment would be especially indicated in risk groups, such as the elderly population. Moreover, melatonin is a practically harmless hormone; the lethal dose 50 could not be found yet. '
As always, because of your mothers multiple health issues, her doctor's approval and supervision will be required before using any of the above mentioned supplements to be sure they will be safe for her and compatible with any other medications or supplements she is taking or will be taking.

I read Ted post for vertigo, I tried lysine three days, without threonine. Since april when I started lemon, Apple Cider Vinegar remedy she developed many simptoms like: breathing difficulties, swallowing difficulties, high blood pressure. Now she is a little stable, but she cant walk properly, she loses her balance. I cant afford to make more analysis and medical investigations. She loses weight, she has now 56 kg.Cognitively is ok. If you have any idea, what else I can try? For her losing balance. Thank you, God Bless you all. And God bless Ted anywhere in this universe he is.

Sleep on Your Left Side for Acid Reflux
10 days agoGarlic for Cystitis
10 days agoGarlic and Cystitis.
From the Book: Miracle Medicine Foods, p. 83-95. 1977 – Rex Adams
Urinary infections can be painful and debilitating. Mrs. N.Q. tells how garlic was used to relieve a persistent bladder infection:
For those of you who may be suffering from cystitis, garlic may be the answer. After having it several times, I decided to try my own remedy. I chopped up three large cloves of garlic three times a day, put them on a teaspoon and into my mouth and washed them down with water. After five days, the cystitis was gone. So easy…
I've had cystitis once since then and the garlic worked again. Maybe it will work for kidney infections, too. My doctor wasn't all too surprised as she once had a patient with lung cancer that lived longer than she expected him to and he ate garlic. The wonder drug—it really works.
Cherry Juice for Incontinence
10 days agoCherry Juice for Constant Urination.
From the Book: Miracle Medicine Foods, p. 83-95. 1977 – Rex Adams
Ms. J.C. writes: I just must tell you of my discovery in hopes that someone else will find it helpful. For about five years (since age 50) I've been suffering from bladder trouble. I tried various things… I even went to a medical doctor who claimed I needed hormones… But nothing really helped. I was getting up from one to five times a night and urinating every hour or so during the day. This was most inconvenient to say the least…
I found help in a most unexpected way. Six months ago... in the refrigerator I found a bottle of cherry juice. I drank it up during the course of a week, just to keep it from spoiling. I wasn't expecting anything to happen, so imagine my surprise when I realized my bladder trouble was better.
I've continued to improve and improve. In fact, I have just slept seven hours without getting up… I scarcely know I have a bladder any more—no more tripping to the rest room every hour on the hour. How much cherry juice wrought this miracle? I get the concentrate from the health food store, of course, and use one tablespoon in a glass of water each morning. That's it. I hope that others will find relief from this simple remedy.
