Where to Buy Remedies

Hi, I've been recommended to this website by a friend from online, and mentions that there is a good shop in the uk, for unpasteurised Apple Cider Vinegar with mother, but im unsure where this is. I need to know where the true organic and non pasteurised Apple Cider Vinegar is which benefits the health best. I went to a site that did higher nature Apple Cider Vinegar with mother in - unpasteurised with mother, from bodykind recently. My question is, is there an Apple Cider Vinegar that tops that? and if so where? The Apple Cider Vinegar higher nature one was also higher omega acv.

I am having a hard time finding sodium thiosulfate and methylene blue. Would someone contact me personally @ sozo_me_lord(at)yahoo(dot)com and let me know where these can be purchased. I did purchase NovAqua by Kordon at my local pet store. It does state that it is non-toxic to humans, but it does not specifically list sodium thiosulfate? If anyone has purchased this particular product please let me know the amount for drinking. Thank You

Hi Tommy, yes, it is called huile de lin. Although I live in France I don't think that I have ever bought it here as I live next to Germany and Switzerland and I buy most of my stuff in those two countries. You could try the health shops or otherwise pharmacies with a health section as I think they have it in capsules. That is also better because of the oxidation. Otherwise you will have to try online but I think that I have bought it in a pharmacy here...

Hello everyone,
I just wonder if someone could tell me where to buy the flax seed oil from Toulouse in France. I asked my sister who lives there to buy but she couldn't find it. It's called in french '' l'huile de Lin'' right? or '' L'huile de grain de Lin''? Thank you so much.

In wine making supply stores tannic acid often goes under the name "Wine Tannin" I've seen it go for several bucks per ounce and a half. I too also found the potassium bicarbonate in a home brew store. Its used to lower the acidity level of the wine or beer.

Greetings
I would be grateful if any member can inform me where I can buy in Malaysia :
1. Magnesium Oil for transdermal application
2. Magnesium Chloride flakes
3. Nascent Iodine

soda ash or sodium carbonate: I can't find info about soda ash and what it is and where to buy it, in what form.

Does Ted know if technical grade or reagent grade is good enough for the sodium molybdate?

To Dianne from Kuwait - I am new to Kuwait, coming from the US and want to know if you have to order all your health stuff online or if you have found some here? I am trying to find baking soda, food grade hydrogen peroxide and urine/saliva test strips. I did find regular 6% peroxide at a pharmacy.

Health food stores

Hi, I am new to this site, love it! I am new to Kuwait and need help finding the following products: hydrogen peroxide 3%, Borax, baking soda, EVCO and EV Sesame oil. Thanks.

There's a great new site for buying all sorts of organic products (food, beauty etc) in Phuket, Thailand http://www.goodkarmathailand.com
_____ for example is priced at 275 Baht

Message for Ted, You mention you can buy Nepronil in Bangkok. Which supermarkets stock Nepronil? Thanks, Dave

Hello everyone! I have to share that! Yesterday I tried to order from pure bulk and when I looked a the total I had to stop and re-think my list for obvious budgetary reason. So today I searched the web and got the idea to look at wine making and I did find not only tannic acid but also potassium bicarbonate at a very reasonable price $7 vs $29. It is unfortunate that they don't have more of what I need, but every bit help.

Please help with store name and addresses, for Bangkok, I'm new here. Herbs boswellia, also baking powder also sodium abscorbate, MAGNESIUM CITRATE. RATHER URGENT PLEASE. TELEPHONE NUMBERS ALSO HELP.. THANK YOU.. REGARDS COLLIN.

Yes, I also would like to know where to buy this. I found technical grade on ebay at 96% to 97% pure but this does not seem pure enough.

Washing soda is sodium carbonate.

I purchased 1 lb of the sodium carbonate from nutsonline.com under the baking category. I know some people are paranoid (Armour Hammer as washing soda), I was too. Just in case you want to share with other Earthclinic readers.

Peter

What is molybdenum (sodium molybdate) and where do I buy it in northern ireland. I went online to two popular health food stores and they don't seem to stock it. Also, are there any side effects with sodium molybdate?

If you have trouble getting zinc acetate or zinc chloride, then just take some zinc sold in drug stores, such as Amino chelated zinc. The newer herpes remedies require to take about 1000 mg of lysine hourly for at least 4 hours a day, some yakeow (a thai herb) will flush them out. To make it work better, a 1000 mg of threonine is added, plus 250-500 mg of L Citrulline. All these are easier to find and more effective. The critical element for the herpes is lysine, threonine and citrulline. As for zinc acetate or zinc chloride, if not easy to find, just get the zinc sold in most supplement stores, and just take it for only one week, thereafter maybe just weekly dose, taken at 25-50 mg only. Thereafter I would continue taking the lysine, threonine and citrulline for at least 2 months. This should get rid of most of herpes or prevent them from any further outbreak. Since the lithium iodide is difficult one, the I would just use lugols, or other iodine and apply them topically 5 times a day.The reason why this new one works better and less stringent is the lysine and yakeow, puts less pressure to get more complicated chemicals that are harder to find.

Ted

Hi Pat from Athens, Al, Usa, I hope you don't mean Swanson Vitamins as they do not have anything I would need. I am look for pure powder of zinc acetate. Does anyone else have any clues.

Try Swanson's they have a website. I got some from them really cheap.

I am looking for a place to buy zinc acetate that Ted mentions. Does anyone know of a place to buy it that is reasonably priced? I also would like to know what form is best, like Zinc Acetate Dihydrate ACS, is that the best form? Any help please, thank you.

TO: Maureen from Royal Palm Beach, Fl

I did found the milk of sulphur in an asian market in baltimore.have not used it yet.My friend who told me about it said it is good for cleaning the blood.have not got how you mix it up though,but I am looking up some info.on molasses and sulphur on the net which they said is a good blood cleanser.You can google molasses and sulphur. God bless.

I am in Thailand on holiday now and today I managed to buy the following chemicals in Bangkok:

Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate 99.5% pure
Zinc Chloride 99.8% pure
Potassium Carbonate 96.5% pure
Sodium Carbonate 99.8% pure
Aqueous Iodine 1%
Borax 99.5% pure
Citric Acid
Peppermint oil
Camphor

They also had Potassium iodide crystals which I did not buy. It was amazingly easy to find all the chemicals in one shop.

Unfortunately the address of the Chemical Shop from the card I got was all in Thai, but the rough directions are here:

* Get a taxi to Radjdamnoern Rd.(pronounced Radja-dam-noern)
* When in this road head towards the Palace.
* Go over the large roundabout, straight across.
* Go just beyond the large winged monument.
* Stop and get out of the taxi.
* The shop is called VIDHYASOM CO. LTD(pronounced Vittayasom) and the shop is located on the right hand side of the road going towards the palace.

Radjdamnoern Rd is 6 kms in length, and that's a long way to walk to just to find the proper chemical shops...LOL.

Hope this helps.

I found it in an oriental store in the Bronx. They only had 2 bottles. Some asian stores have it as well but not at the time I went to get it this weekend. Apparently, with Whitfield Ointment together this helps the white spot on your skin. I'm going to try it for my daughter to see if it works. I will try the oriental stores in Florida to see if any carry it.

Dear Geoffrey: H2O2 food grade may not be available in Bangkok. However, there is a medical grade H2O2, laboratory grade, and technical grade that are acceptable. There are many chemical suppliers along the Rajadamnoern Road, near the front of Kao Sarn Road, where the Japanese journalist got shot during the Army crackdown here.

Has anyone tried the Mountain Rose borax? I'm not comfortable taking a borax that makes no claims of purity, and is processed by Dial Corporation. At least MontainRose says theirs is manufactured according to USP standards. So I was wondering if their chemical analysis means that nothing was added to the Borax, or if 20 Mule Team/Dial Corp is still the best option in the USA.

Here's Mountain Rose's Chemical Analysis:
Anhydrous Borax- 70.1%
Boric Oxide - 48.5%
Sodium Oxide - 20.8%
Water of Crystallization - 46.2%
Chloride- 37ppm

To Khun Ted, Bangkok,

Hi Ted, where does one buy food grade H2O2 in Bangkok please ?? Thai Sports Asoke ??

Many thanks

how to make your own sodium carbonate from sodium bi-carbonate [= baking soda]:

Since sodium carbonate that is called for in Bangkok Ted's remedy is hard to find, even in his neck of the woods, ... and since it is expensive to order off of the internet merchants; .... and when you do order it you are not sure if it is really food grade, ... and since you are not sure if the walmart swimming pool pH-up product is really up to food grade standards, or not; .....

you can easily & cheaply make it youself from sodium bi-carboanate that you KNOW is food grade material: by BAKING the baking soda in a oven @ 400 degree F for 1 hour [or longer]. Bake it in a inert glass dish. the bowl should be deep; because the sodium bicarbonate is supposed to jump & scatter around into the oven as the water leaves it.

The baking soda will undergo a change where it loses carbon dioxide molecules, etc, and becomes SODIUM CARBONATE. The baking soda will lose 1/3 of it's mass in the process. The pH of the finished product, SODIUM CARBONATE, should be 11 or 12 on a test strip.

You must store the SODIUM CARBONATE in a sealed glass jar to keep it from drawing moisture and degrading back into sodium bi-carbonate.

Easy; just check the weight. The conversion of sodium bicarbonate to sodium carbonate is coupled with release of water and carbon dioxide. This makes the final product ~37% lighter, so if you bake 100g of sodium bicarb you should end up with just above 60g of sodium carbonate if the conversion is complete. Refer to the original tek for more details Wink

My friend who refuses to use the internet says he tried this and it worked exactly as you said! After ~4 hrs in the oven at 450F the weight dropped by almost *exactly* 37% (like, within 0.1 g). Pretty cool!

Hi,

This is a fairly easy one-step tek suited for those who cannot find / afford to buy NaOH/lye, KOH or any other decent base. This tek relies on the manufacturing of sodium carbonate (which is not easy to find where I am coming from - same goes for NaOH, which is totally unheard of) from sodium bicarbonate

The idea is not new - it comes from another thread (http://www.dmt-nexus.com/forum/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=1404) and has already been tried by 69ron who wrote:

Quote:
Yeah...SWIM made sodium carbonate from sodium bicarbonate before just by baking it in an oven. It is very easy to do but causes CO2 gas to form which causes the sodium bicarbonate to jump around in the pan. Make sure you cover the pan with tin foil or your whole oven will be covered in pieces of sodium carbonate.


Sodium bicarbonate powder (aka bicarbonate of soda, baking soda) can be easily found in supermarkets and bakeries. It is a raising agent added in doughs. DO NOT buy baking powder which is a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and tartaric acid.

The aim is to convert sodium bicarbonate which is a very weak base, (pH ~8 ) to sodium carbonate which is a moderately strong base that will easily give you a pH of >12. The reaction is:

2NaHCO3 ----> Na2CO3 H2O CO2
sodiun bicarb ----> sodium carb. water carbon dioxide

And you just need heat to do it. So,

1) Heat up the oven at 200 Celsius
2) put as much sodium bicarbonate as you want in your oven
3) cook it for 1 hour.

That's it, now you have sodium carbonate.

You can now dissolve 12.5 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12
.......or 25.0 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12.3
.......or 37.5 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12.4
.......or 50 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12.45
.......or 100 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12.5
.......or 200 grams of it / litre water for a pH of ~12.7


Note that upon baking sodium bicarbonate its weight will decrease; In fact, taking the stoichiometry of the reaction and the molecular weights of NaHCO3 and Na2CO3, your final product will be ~37% lighter. This is exactly what you will find, so if you cook 200g of sodium bicarbonate you will get ~ 125g of sodium carbonate.

Enjoy!

[EDIT: EXTREME CARE should be taken when adding sodium carbonate in an acidic solution. Sodium carbonate neutralises acids and this process also liberates carbon dioxide which causes the solution to foam. Just mix some vinegar or lemon juice with sodium carbonate and see.

If one wishes to basify an acidic extract, then sodium carbonate needs to be added slowly, waiting for the foaming to settle, then add a bit more. When addition of sodium carbonate does not cause any foaming this is an indication that the solution is neutral and pH is around 7. From this point onwards one can add as much sodium carbonate as one desires for basification without fearing that foaming will happen.

Many thanks to SyZyGyPSy for bringing this issue up. ]

Sodium bicarbonate
>| Melting point
Sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3, or sodium hydrogen carbonate, also known as baking soda, bread soda, or bicarbonate of soda, is a soluble white anhydrous or crystalline chemical compound, with a slight alkaline taste resembling that of sodium carbonate. It is found in many mineral springs and also produced artificially.

Sodium bicarbonate, when exposed to an acid, releases carbon dioxide and water:

NaHCO3 HCl ?' NaCl H2O CO2 (gas) : NaHCO3 CH3COOH ?' NaCH3COO H2O CO2 (gas)

Above 60 ?C, it gradually decomposes into sodium carbonate, water and carbon dioxide, and at 200 ?C it is completely decomposed into sodium carbonate:

2NaHCO3 ?' Na2CO3 H2O CO2

Baking soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) slowly turns into washing soda (Sodium Carbonate, a.k.a. soda ash) when heated above 140 degrees F. The carbon dioxide released is what makes things rise. If you heat baking soda to 350-400 degrees, it'll turn into washing soda fairly quickly.

I've seen this listed - in various forms - at several sites. Some said not to do a large quantity at once, and others didn't mention it. Now that I think about it, the ones that seemed to be a little more technical in their explanation were the ones that said not to do huge quantities, rather than the ones that were more anecdotal. Still, I've only seen it mentioned about 4-5 times on the web from what I could find; that's why I asked.

One site did say that since the water molecules are released from the baking soda with heating, to be sure and place it in an airtight container to ensure that the water is not added back in.

One site I saw this afternoon said that you could heat a small amout in the microwave for about 10 seconds for the same effect. This is all news to me!

Soda ash is the active ingredient in washing soda. The chemical name for it is sodium carbonate, chemical formula Na2CO3. It is more basic, that is, less acidic, than sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), whose chemical formula is NaHCO3. The purpose of sodium carbonate is simply to increase pH.

Hydration
Some forms of soda ash (e.g. that labeled as 'washing soda') contain more water molecules than others, which makes them weigh more and be larger for a given number of sodium carbonate molecules - this means that you need to measure out a larger quantity of the hydrated form in order to get the same results. If you buy sodium carbonate without the extra water molecules, then store it for several years in humid conditions, it will absorb some water and appear to lose strength, when in fact it has merely 'bulked up' and needs to be used in larger volumes.

The type of sodium carbonate used in washing soda is a decahydrate, so you need to use a lot more washing soda than you would anhydrous soda ash, perhaps three times as much - assuming that you are able to find pure unadulterated washing soda that is suitable for use in dyeing. (In theory, we should use 2.7 times as much washing soda as a substitute for soda ash, if measuring by weight, or 4.6 times as much if measuring by volume.)

Where can you buy soda ash?
Although you can buy washing soda in the grocery store, this is usually advised against, because some US brands in the past were known to contain optical brighteners, salt, and/or fragrances. However, Arm & Hammer brand "Super Washing Soda" does not now contain any additives, though you must use a larger quantrity due to its greater hydration level (see above). A better source is a swimming pool supplies store, or a hardware store that carries some pool supplies, which will carry pure sodium carbonate (a popular brand is pH Up), sold for the purpose of increasing the pH of pool water. This is typically cheaper than mail-ordering from a dye supplier, and just as good. Beware of suppliers that try to sell you sodium bicarbonate instead of sodium carbonate; bicarbonate is much less basic (it has a lower pH), and will not work for most dyeing recipes.

I just purchased some EDTA in the form of Tetrasodium Hydrate 98%. I've seen the suggested use of 1/16 teaspoon, but is this also valid for 98% EDTA? I don't want to accidentally kill myself.

Hi Cordell, thanks for the supplier. Just what I was looking for ... health and prosperity!

After reading Mr.Ted's writings, I tried to buy a few materials such as Sodium Bicarbonate, Potassium Bicarbonate and Methylene Blue. Their grades are ep or gr. Ep means extra pure. Gr means garanteed pure(the best grade available). However, the owner of the chemicals store said I can't eat them even though they are gr grade. That is because they are made impure with additives.

Is it true that i can't use sodium bicarbonate of gr grade internally? Another question. Can I use methylene blue of ep grade internally?

Chemical Supplier (Ted's remedies) in Canada

Hi. I would just like to post this for anyone interested in buying many of the chemicals etc. used in Ted's remedies in Canada. I found a Chemical Supplier with "Food Grade chemicals" called the Kissner Group online http://www.kissner.com -- it's located in Ontario and has Disodium EDTA, Potassium Bicarbonate, Hydrogen Peroxide, Magnesium Chloride and many others. I was personally quite happy to find it after extensive searching and thought It'd be just wrong for me not to share!

If anyone is still having problems getting sodium thiosulfate at the pet store after reading all this here is what I did. Go to your local pet store and find where they keep the dechlorinators and write down the product names and the brand name. Then look them up on their website. You should be able to find a page with the MSDS or material safety data sheet. The MSDS will give you the ingredients. Some times the bottle will have the URL for the website on it so you can write that down.

Check ebay.

I am having trouble finding the meters Ted suggests. At the garden stores here the meters state they gauge pH in the soil. You dampen the soil and stick the probe in. Would that work if you didn't have the soil and just stuck it in water? Thank you
