02/10/2012: Parisp from Larnaca, Na, Cyprus writes: "Dear Ted,

Can you help? My mother has bone and tissue infection on 2 of her toes. How can I use the hydrogen to increase the oxygen in blood without killing or damaging her in any way and kill this bacteria? How can I combine it in foot baths and internally in combination to do that? I need to mention that she has artificial heart valve so I don't want to burn her valve. Can I combine it with germanium and if yes, how much of it daily?

thank you"

HOW BEST TO USE BORAX/ HYDROGEN PEROXIDE FOR ROSACEA?
Fri, 10 Feb 12 09:04:39 -0600

02/09/2012: Kim from Akron, Oh, Usa writes: "Hello,

I recently was diagnosed with rosacea but am unsure if demodex is the problem. I want to give borax and HP a try anyway.

I don't know how much to use. Can I use 1 tsp of borax to 1 tsp of hydrogen peroxide? I am having trouble with the solution though as it is very grainy. I put it on my face and it's very grainy looking. Am I doing this incorrectly? Also, do I have to drink the borax for it to work on my face?

Does anyone have any tips on how to measure this appropriately and does the solution have to be grainy for it to work?

Thanks, Kim"

WILL COCONUT MILK/ COCONUT OIL BLEND WORK TO WEAN MY BABY TO BECAUSE OF DAIRY ALLERGY?
Thu, 09 Feb 12 22:16:24 -0600

02/09/2012: Tamara from Calgary, Alberta, Canada writes: "My baby has a dairy allergy. He is almost 10 months old, so in a couple of months, I am supposed to start introducing homogenized milk into his diet as he breastfeeds less.

So, I need to find an alternative to dairy milk that will provide him the fat, calories and nutrients he needs.

I'm thinking coconut milk and coconut oil, but I'd like a more specific 'recipe' I can make.

Thoughts?

Thank you!"

CAN ALOE AND APPLE CIDER VINEGAR BE APPLIED TO SKIN CONDITION?
Thu, 09 Feb 12 21:45:30 -0600

02/09/2012: Elaine from San Francisco, Ca Usa writes: "I developed a weird scummy thing on my nose a few weeks ago. I tried antiobiotic cream and oral antihistamines and they did nothing.

I have been applying apple cider vinegar to the spot the last few days. It seems to be helping to dry the area up and I keep sporting the same old ugly scab though!

Instead of applying concealer, I got some small bandaids that I wear when I go out.

I have an aloe vera plant outside. I am curious--has anyone applied BOTH aloe and ACV for such a condition?

Thanks for a GREAT site! Thanks to the many success stories, I am now starting to consume ACV as well... it does seem to be a good thing for many pesky conditions of the body."

02/09/2012: Debbie from Tellico Plains, Tennessee, Usa writes: "I am addicted to your website... Since finding it I have already tried AVC on my pet and my husband's sore neck from sleeping wrong. Both worked!!

Now I need a fix, I have tubes in one ear and a tube that has fallen out in the other (so have an open hole). Wondering if I can use BHT with holes in my eardrums. Your response would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I am in a barrel all the time and my hearing is really bad. I blow everyone out of the room when I watch tv and I am constantly saying pardon over the phone and in people to people conversations. Thanks"

  ARE THESE COLD SORES?
Thu, 09 Feb 12 21:30:26 -0600

02/09/2012: Linda from San Francisco, Ca, Usa writes: "I can tell you that, if it were me, I'd slap some undiluted, pure high-quality Tea Tree essential oil onto it *immediately*, work it in and then put some more on there and let that soak in too, if that stops the tingling/crawling you'll probably be OK. If it cuts the feeling down at all, keep doing it until the feeling doesn't come back, no matter how many times it takes.

That means if I were at work when I read this, I'd be leaving instantly and driving to the store to get it. I'd get the best and strongest Tea Tree Pure Essential Oil I could get. I'd make sure it is not diluted with anything.

Stay well,

Linda"

CAN I GET SOME GUIDANCE REGARDING WHAT TO DO FOR MY THYROID?
Thu, 09 Feb 12 16:20:57 -0600

02/09/2012: Countrygirl from Coral Springs, Florida, Usa writes: "Found this site last August. Have been pouring through everything from every subject. Tried most of the popular remedies. Have not noticed any results from ACV and baking soda. Great results from EVCO: skin on my face feels soft and moist for the first time (I am 58). Positive results using BSM: noticed hair is thickening and not falling off like before.

Diagnosed with an enlarged thyroid a week ago. Blood work came back normal (TSH is 2.7) but ultrasound result was depressing. Two complex nodules found in the right, measuring 0.9 cm and 0.7 cm in diameter. One complex nodule found in the left, measuring 3.6cm by 2. 0cm by 2.5 cm. Don't know what these numbers mean. Was recommended for needle aspiration for further evaluation.

Bought some Kelp Liquid Iodine and taking 4 drops in a glass of water. Is there Lugol's Iodine locally available? Don't want to order online.

Can anyone guide me through this? No health insurance. Not employed. Thanks."

WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR MY HUSBAND'S KIDNEY STONES AND DEPRESSION?
Thu, 09 Feb 12 14:51:32 -0600

02/09/2012: Johneb from Nashville, Ga, Usa writes: "Hello my husband suffers from chronic kidney stones, he has passed 2 this year already and suffering from his 3rd one now. I have been mixing 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1 tbsp olive oil 3 to 4 times day for 1&1/2 days and that seemed to help it move faster and he said he thought he was passing some sand now, he also said if he didn't think this was helping there would be no way he would be taking this. (taste awful)

He also has back problems with his disc and has had 2 surgeries 1 they said to shave down the bulging part off the nerve and 5 years after that he had a disc replacement in his neck. He does go thru depression and some spells are worse than others. I would like to help him with his stone problem and the depression. He takes pain pill every day so we know there is a dependency to those pills. The Dr. has him lexapro for the depression this will be the first whole month he has taken them without stopping. BP stays up and down.

Is there anyone who knows what I can do to get him better? He is 50 years old and has no other issues."

Thu, 09 Feb 12 09:35:51 -0600

02/09/2012: Nohard from Aristomenis, Greece writes: "2 years ago I had a broken knee ligament and a badly damaged one, got over these through rest and exercise, and swimming. Now I got it back again I think, from, of all things, driving across Europe.

Has anybody got any ideas for a natural supplement to help in restoring ligaments, apart from the above as I need to get it going soon, lots of work to do."

WHAT CAN I USE TO DISSOLVE/ RID HARD, CALCIFIED GALLSTONE?
Wed, 08 Feb 12 22:48:13 -0600

02/08/2012: Marika from Stanthorpe, Australia writes: "It seems fulvic acid might dissolve hard pigment stones from what I have read, is this right how much would I need to take daily and for how long before I do a gallbladder flush. Or could you recommend something better. I have a single 11mm hard calcified gallstone, that bites very sharply in the gallbladder if I bend over or move suddenly sometimes but it is really painful and sharp, it is a floating singular gallstone. I am scared to do the gallbladder flush in case it gets stuck in the tube. Can you help? marika"
