Wendy: Grapefruit is notorious for antagonizing detoxification pathways in the body, and is thus contraindicated during the use of many kinds of pharm meds. The joint issues are many times a result of some type infection or pathogen. The supplementation of Borax was found to eliminate the painful joints of those infected. Glucosamine & Chondroitin help rebuild the joints.


ACV, Blackstrap Molasses, Grapefruit Juice
Posted by Wendy (New Jersey) on 12/11/2013

I've been taking molasses and ACV w/ 1 cup of grapefruit juice in the morning, then ACV and grapefruit juice before I eat a meal.

The nodes on my hands have nearly disappeared but now I have pain I my hips and my knees. It seems to be more from a swelling that appears behind my kneecaps and not in the joints. I'm unsure of the hip pain. I've never had pain in these places before and now I'm worried I harmed myself with drinking these combinations. Can anybody help me with suggestions?

Hello There,

I have gone through the discussions in your website, relate to ACV and Blackstrap Molasses. I did see the reviews that it's a brilliant tip.

But I couldn't see the actual combination of for ACV and BSM. Can you please share the link which has actual recipes please or please suggest the proportions. Thanks, Archana

ACV Combinations
Posted by Trudyg (Xxx, Yyy) on 07/09/2013

I've been taking Apple Cider Vinegar daily for quite some time. I also take baking soda to alkalize and I take a 'fingertip' of borax. Then I read to take molasses for my insomnia--it also should help with my arthritis and migraines. So, my question is, can I combine all this into one mixture so I'm not drinking so much fluid? I can drink 1/2 cup of water and I pee within 5 minutes. I pee a lot, and often. the Apple Cider Vinegar helps to slow that down, but I can't be leaving my desk that often and have insomnia anyway so I don't want to be up at night. If they can be combined it would help, but I know that some things should be taken apart from each other. Thanks.

Kavita - try the following;

  • Di-sodium salt (EDTA) 1/16 teaspoon
  • Ascorbic Acid 1/3 teaspoon
  • Sodium Bicarbona 1/4 teaspoon
  • MSM 1/2 teaspoon
  • Borax 1/16 teaspoon

Take 3 x daily before meals skipping every other day. It is very effective

Hydrogen Peroxide, ACV, Coconut Oil

Well, this is follow-up to my original post in March. I did not mention that I have a nodule on my LLlung, that was the primary reason for trying the H2O2 remedy. Got the new results from most recent CT scan today. It is GONE!

I am not even done with the regimen. I ended up with the stomach flu and also had to land on same dosage two-days in a row from about 18-drops (could only get to 22-drops before the taste just plain overwhelmed me and headed back down the dosage scale) I was kind of nauseous most mornings after first dose for about an hour.

I have been in steady decline for several years with several things, I honestly felt that I was now in such decline, I was dying a slow death. Lung/bronchial infections, chronic fatigue and pain, a neurological disorder of my vocal cords (I was a semi-prof. Singer with perfect pitch) that, we believe began when I had my cervical surgery and, either a surgical tool rested on my cord/fold or the trache tube damaged it. We will never know. All I do know is that I have been progressively losing my voice and no longer able to sing professionally and every time I do sing, generally, laryngitis pursues me for weeks (months). I have not had a "normal" speaking voice for more than a week in almost two years. My singing voice was how I worshiped my Creator and expressed my heart on so many levels, losing it has been utterly devastating. Anyway... (sorry felt like you needed some kind of background for this next part)... Every time I took the H2O2 I felt a quasi, borderline burning sensation on my throat (not really burning, no other way to describe) immediately after swallowing. The interesting part is that it was not on the whole of my throat, the sensation was on the right side and similar to a puzzle piece shape-non specific. O. K. So, over the course of the month the size and strength of this odd sensation has dissipated, now more of a small spot. I sang Good Friday, rehearsal Sat. , Sun w/o any laryngitis, this week was similar for other gatherings, normally I can only sing every other week and then it is very fragile. Well, I have not gotten laryngitis or even felt weak! I am kind of fearful to post this as the timeline has been rather short to really verify but once I got the CT results combined with my inclination that H2O2 has possibly reduced the inflammation of the abductor fold of my vocal chords I was (am) too excited to not believe there is a connection and it is an answer to prayer.

I am so very thankful for falling into this site. Thank you! OH!!! So, my BP today was 120/70 after having gone up over the last two years to over 140/90 and I think that is thanks to Apple cider vinegar! Now, I will attack what I believe is a non-addressed (labs borderline, symptoms spoke plenty but MD's disregard me) thyroid component. I am so grateful for the input on this site. I am a happy girl and feel better today than I have in over three years. Less than two months since finding what I believe is saving me. Better energy, sleep, general well-being. Blessings on those who started and contribute their wise counsel.


Hydrogen Peroxide, ACV, Coconut Oil
Posted by Timh (Louisville, Ky, USA) on 03/06/2013 2063 posts

Songbird: The method to use is "start low - go slow". You want to take your minerals prior to meals, H2O2 drops fallowing minerals. ACV (i use tablets) and Coconut Oil w/ meals, vitamins w/ meals. Slowly increase to recommended doses and monitor results. On the H2O2 start w/ 2 drops per day and increase. Take vit-C away from meals and other supplements.

I have lately been seeing the need for antioxidant protection, so try and incorporate some, in time. Selenium, E, and A for starters. Everyone needs extra Omega 3 EFA's like Fish and Flax Oils. Iodine, starting w/ Kelp will help the Thyroid (mood and energy). Speaking of mood and energy (it seems like you need to up those levels) try Tyrosine and St John's wort (this should really help you).

Let us know how you're doing.


Hydrogen Peroxide, ACV, Coconut Oil
Posted by Songbird (Monterey, Ca) on 03/04/2013 3 posts

Hello, I am trying new, seemingly beneficial remedies for whole body healing. I have been taking Apple Cider Vinegar daily for maybe six weeks now. Coconut oil for two and just yesterday received my 35% Hydrogen Peroxide. Every site has a little more or less information and I am overwhelmed. Generally topics are designed for one or another remedy not combined.

Am I potentially destroying myself with these? I just read not to take magnesium with H202--which I did yesterday as I had not seen that information until this morning! ... I think I diluted my H202 incorrectly-too much and don't have the math skills to fix it. Do I need to stop all OTC vitamins and minerals; do they get re-introduced or do we find that remedy (if works as hoped) will alleviate need for those. If I am sick, do I withhold additional Vit-C, Zinc and alike?

Does the ACV have a negative impact on my stomach lining when used (not at same time) with H202? and, does the coconut oil soothe the stomach lining to help if out of balance due to the other two?

I so appreciate any guidance and wisdom. I am alone with the family quietly thinking me nuts, but I am truly sick and tired of being sick and tired! Traditional medicine, well, I am guessing you know...

Home Remedy and Supplement Combinations
Posted by Will_ashbless (West Chester, Pa, Usa) on 12/10/2012

Hi, I am beginning a new regimen including a powdered multi-vitamin (fruit antioxidant based with no iron), a powdered super green drink and a few other things. I get kidney stones and so I was told I should be taking a magnesium potassium citrate supplement.

I am very acidic to the point where a few times a year I will get the most horrible smelling and bizarre body odor. If I take my shirt off I smell great but the armpits of whatever shirt I had on will stink to high heaven. Almost as if the fabric is activated by the liquid from my armpit. Anyway when this happens I know I'm even more acidic than usual and I start supplementing with baking soda. This last time I just decided to keep taking it and I take about a teaspoon of baking soda daily.

So my question is if I now take this magnesium potassium citrate supplement will this eliminate my need for baking soda or can I (should I) still take my baking soda daily? I am also a bit worried about taking this supplement on top of a multi-vit containing potassium and magnesium already but the numbers for allowable daily intake suggest that I should be ok.

Thanks for your time in advance.

Mix 3 cups of white vinegar with a buckle of hot water, add a drop of soap. Then soap for 20-30 mins for 3-5 days. Rinse it. It will cure the atheles feet. It is also good for the skin. Soaping feet before bed is a Chinese anient method for all health purpose. Use a spray bottle for the vinegar water to spray inside the shoes.


Apple Cider Vinegar and Medication
Posted by Howler (Cape Town, South Africa) on 12/05/2012

Hi Sunny, I had the same procedure done in August 2012. If I knew then what I know now, I would have refused the stent. I use ACV (2 Tbsps 2X or 3X per day in an 8 oz. Glass of water (filtered) before my meals. I have replaced the Plavix and the Aspirin with Garlic, Cinnamon, Onions & Cayenne Pepper. I stopped using the hospital's medication 3 weeks after the stent procedure and started following Dr. Linus Pauling's regiment of Vitamin C & Lysine. (Cannot find Proline here in Cape Town). Status of my arteries moved from 50% open to 75% open at my follow-up in October 2012.


Milk Thistle, Chanca Piedra
Posted by Timh (Louisville, Ky, Usa) on 12/04/2012 2063 posts

Angelina: I saw an herbal liver product some time ago with Chanca Pedra along w/ several other herbs. Generally speaking and almost without exception, all herbs w/ an affinity to a single organ also all work together or synergistically. I posted (here on E.C.) an herbalist who cured himself of Hep C using primarily Burdock & Yellowdock Root Tea. Many beneficial herbs for Liver. NAC helps detox and boost immunity. BHT is excellent antiviral. Oscar recommends not combining BHT with other treatment formulas. I find the best chances of overcoming serious and complex illnesses is Combination Therapy. The fine line of what can be used together is an art of healing that is not easily defined in many cases. To simplify this problem rotation is recommended. Do the Liver Complex Herbs, or Single if you prefer, for one week, drop them and use BHT for one week etc.

WARNING!

As posted at 11/07/2011 JD from Okc, Oklahoma. Are you not aware of the Deadly mixture, grapefruit and drugs. http://health.yahoo.net/experts/dayinhealth/grapefruit-and-medications-may-be-deadly-mix

As stated here.

Mixing the citrus fruit with the prescription painkiller oxycodone can lead to severe breathing problems, while combining grapefruit and the statin medication Zocor (simvastatin) may spark a potentially life-threatening complication called rhabdomyolysis, in which breakdown of muscle fibers can result in kidney damage of failure.

There are a lot more hazardous drug interactions at the link above.

I do not see a warning about this here so I thought I might bring it to everyones attention.

Take care. art 1a.


Milk Thistle, Chanca Piedra

Does anybody know if it is OK to take BOTH milk thistle and Chanca Piedra at the same time? Will one negate he other? I have hep-c. First time on this site... Great info..

Thank you

Posted by Bess (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) on 12/01/2012

More on taking prescription medications with grapefruit (or other citrus) juices, I received one of my alternative health newsletters with the following information:

Grapefruit poses a potentially lethal health risk to more and more patients taking prescription drugs. The fruit contains chemicals called furanocoumarins that can interact with certain drugs, blocking their breakdown and so making them more potent. Adverse effects can include acute kidney failure, respiratory failure, internal bleeding and sudden death.

While it is well known that some patients should avoid grapefruit, or grapefruit juice, the list of drugs involved has risen sharply in recent years. More than 85 current drugs can interact with grapefruit, and of these 43 can have serious side effects, according to scientists writing in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.

Timh is right - find out about any interactions for your medications. Do as much research as you possibly can.

I don't know if most or all Medications come w/ this warning, but it is ALWAYS advised to read the "drug indications and warnings" before medicating.

Also, the Histamine 2 Antagonist drugs used for acid reducing like Zantac, Pepcid, and Tagamet have similar effect on Liver P450 detox enzymes, that is they INHIBIT.

The inhibitory effect of these substances on drug metabolism and detoxification causes the medication to remain in the bloodstream for much longer period of time, which also raises the level of medication. This is how the overdose occurs.

Posted by Oscar (Syracuse, New York) on 12/01/2012

Yes it does and sometimes fatal interactions. People on statin drugs for blood pressure need to avoid drinking grapefruit juice. The number of drugs and types of drugs grapefruit juice negatively impacts are so many you need to go here to learn about that:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grapefruit_drug_interactions

Yes, I have read about all of grapefruits health benefits, But if you are taking any of these medications, it`s impact can be fatal. That list includes many pain remedies and tranquilizers. Most doctors do not know about this. There are other websites that state the list of drugs so effected is growing at an alarming rate. No one knew about this until a few years ago....Oscar

If you take an antibiotic for a tooth abscess is it harmful to take dry mustard for constipation? Can they be spaced about 1/2 hr. apart? Could there be some kind of conflict because someone posted they took the mustard as an alternative to antibiotics.


Apple Cider Vinegar Combinations

It sounds to me like you have food allergy symptoms as well as digestion issues. The primary problem is referred to as Leaky Gut Syndrome which is passed on to the children from their mothers at birth. NOTE: This is not a genetic condition, it is caused by bad flora in the stomach and intestines. Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, a Russian Neurologist and Nutritionist discovered the condition after her son was diagnosed as severely Autistic. All the mother's in her support group had digestive issues. By diet, she was able to heal her son of Autism, as well as thousands of others. Dr. Campbell-McBride discovered the connection between Mental Illness and bad gut flora and claims that Mental Illness, ADHT, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Depression, all Inflamatory Diseases etc. We're caused by partially undigested food leaking into the bloodstream through holes in the gut. Since the body does not recognize this form as nutrients, the body sends out antibodies to distroy the foreign objects. This condition causes malabsorption and piosons our bodies. In sensitive or severe cases the poisons start to effect mood. Some people are able to mask the symptoms while others get very ill. I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Extreme Diahrea; my mother has extreme constipation. My eldest son & I have depression, my wife and younger son mask the symptoms. This information is very new as I only discovered it in Sept. 2012. For further info see gaps. me; the book can be purchased through Amazon.

Hi Jim, I take Chinese herbs on a regular daily basis and have seen the greatest improvement in my health from those. I also take lypospheric vitamin c almost daily which is amazing. The herbs are adaptogenic so I can take those everyday to build my chi and immune system. I also drink fresh green juice every morning and eat some fermented foods and/or drinks daily.

Outside of that, I change things up on a regular basis as I think the body gets used to the same thing. I will switch it up with ACV, baking soda, sea salt, sodium thiosulphate, coconut oil, etc. The list goes on and on but just like food as medicine, you don't want the same thing everyday, day in and day out. I might do three days or a week of something and then change it up.

Anyway, that's my two cents! Wishing you the best of health, Lisa
