Gingko Biloba
Posted by Ihateglasses (London, England) on 01/04/2013
★★★★☆
Im starting to take 120mg of standardized gingko biloba capsules as ive read a few studies where its helped with improving eyesight, and I believe gingko has similar effects as cayenne because they both help improve circulation so ill report back in about 2 months time.

Hi Debbie, as I am not getting any better with all the supplements I have tried I am stopping everything and going to start with the Chlorella Spirulina today! I also have Chlorophyl but pills, I suppose that it won't make a difference! Maybe that will change the dryness in my throat and eyes. I have an appointment with the GP next week to see whether I might have Sjogren's but I hope not as the idea is making me panick!
As far as the copper goes, I bought it but I am not sure whether to go on taking it or not. I tried for two days, 2 ml three times a day in a glass of water meaning 0, 9mg copper a day. But I got a bit of a metal taste in my mouth, my throat felt even drier during the night and my stomach seems slightly upset (I felt a bit nauseous). I have stopped taking it now. My husband who is a chemist said he would never take a heavy metal and I read on the Internet that Alzheimer's could be connected with zinc and copper deposits in the brain. I bought the copper at the pharmacy and it says that it can be used for flu symptoms and rheumatism.

Soy Milk, Raw Egg

Looks like this condition could be improved by daily Vit-C w/ Bioflavinoids, Grapefruitseed extract. A round of the top 5 or more Circulation herbs would also be in consideration on a once every 5yrs basis. As time goes by, the arteries of many folks "harden" (hardening of the arteries) or become inflexible I. E. They lose their elasticity. Omega 3 fatty acids are also good to prevent the hardening.

*corection* NOT "grapefruitseed extract" YES "Grapeseed Extract" or Pine Bark Extract would do.

Pill Box for Blind
Posted by Nonnie (Canada) on 04/12/2019
Hi Pris -
It might be a good idea to contact the American Institute for the Blind. They would have suggestions (like pill containers that have an audio button on it so it can be programmed to say what pill it is, pill containers that have different raised lettering like MON for Monday, EVE for evening). At least they could steer you in the right direction if you want to find something online that actually works - it could get quite expensive if you do a "trial and error" with some of these products. In the meantime, you might be able to improvise and set up your sister-in-law with different tops for each pill container. For instance, glue something round on the top of the blood pressure medicine container, something square for the cholesterol medicine, something triangular for the heart medicine, etc. She just needs to remember what pill each top represents. Good luck - I wish you the best for your sister-in-law. She's fortunate to have you in her life. Take care.

Google eyes moxibustion. Also consider to increase blood flow to the eyes with air pump leg sleeves. Also google your condition+jack kruse. See what he says. Finally find a very experienced chinese acupuncturist. One who started practicing in China.

Oil Pulling
Posted by Dag (Florida) on 06/20/2020
Sadly, I've tried to oil pull, but my saliva builds up so much that I have to prematurely spit it out after 5-10 minutes or either accidentally swallow. I even tried a teaspoon of oil. Just makes me want to gag as the saliva builds up.

Posted by Francisca (Michelbach-le-bas, Alsace, France) on 09/01/2011
I am with all of you on this, I would love to know what Lita has been putting in her juices! I have been juicing for 18 months now, just anything really, now in the summer more fruit like black berries (just bought a lot from a friend so need to use them up quickly), grapefruit, avocado, apples, carrots, celery, tomatoes, lettuce, you name it but so far no changes in my eyesight! I am very myopic, not like Lita but sometimes you see even more changes in higher prescriptions. I try to do trampolining whenever I can, try to use my eyes well (I have read a lot of books on the subject), do some exercises but nothing ever seems to happen so know what people are doing that works would be a huge help!
To Gavin: My gingerbeer is going well. I strained it yesterday and am leaving it to ferment again till tomorrow, then I will start drinking it. Stupid enough I don't remember whether I forgot to put in the sugar but as it didn't really taste sweet I added a bit yesterday still, if I didn't put the sugar in would it still ferment? And another question, about the ginger water before sleeping. Isn't ginger something that would keep you awake? I forgot to take it yesterday but I can try tonight still I am a bit worried it will make me even more awake!

Thanks debbie.. When I get the juicer out.. I'll ad a few of the goodies suggested in the website. When you think that to make an 8 oz glass of carrot juice it takes about ten carrots, your certainly getting a good daily supply lol.

Hey Gavin to answer your question; I remember having as base carrots, beets and apples. I would try different things like celery, cucumber and spinach. Spinach didn't work for me because you need so much to get so little. Also I would use pomenagrate, orange, strawberries and sometimes ginger. But the basic was always carrots, apple and beets. I hope this helps. To our health!!

Thanks for your reply Lita, that seems to back up what I was using in the juicer when my eyes came right. Mostly carrots some apples. Plenty of grapefruit juice.. And oranges.. Plus a few billberries as they came off the bush. Plus B12 in a multi.

Hydrogen Peroxide
Posted by Yannis (Athens, Greece) on 09/21/2010
Dear Ted. My wife was diagnosed with Stargardt disease in her eyes. I read two books (one minute c--e by Madison Cavanaugh and hydrogen peroxide - medical miracle by William Campbell Douglas) and I found that macular degeneration was on a list of diseases that could had good results with hydrogen peroxide. I also read that specific cases had different treatments with hp. Do you know how hp can help someone to see improvement to his vision when he has stargardt disease? Is it possible to reverse the damage to his eyes? My wife also takes Tahitian Noni, two per day or super booster from Life extension, vitamin C 1000mg from Quest, super Zeaxanthine form Life extension, Omega 3 and every two days B Complex and stress care from Himalaya. We bought an 35% food grade 500ml and she wants to start taking it. Can you help us? Thank you!

Yannis, could you tell us more about the hydrogen peroxide treatment and if it is safe? My wife also has Stargardt's. Thank you. I would also like to ask if anyone else has any ideas or remedies as to what might help Stargardt's disease. Jamie Jamie8491(at)hotmail(dot)com

Brandon, can you please tell me more about how you use Hydrogen Peroxide to improve your vision with LHON. We think my son may have LHON and I would be interested in hearing from you. Have you tried any other treatments that have been helpful to you?

I have heard alot of h202 recently to improve the vision in LHON. Where do you buy it and what is the correct way to use it or doseage amount??
Hydrogen Peroxide
Posted by Md (Az) on 09/16/2013
Well, A couple drops of 35% food grade h2o2 in a glass of water on a completely empty stomach is a good place to start. To get your stomach empty quicker take a tsp of baking soda in a glass of water first. 10mM h2o2 has been shown safe in the eyes which is 0. 034%. Double check my calculations before applying to the eyes. Also you should add the h2o2 into a salt solution like that which is given with neti pots.
