  Boric Acid for a Sty

Boric Acid – Stye.

“ To hasten the pointing of a stye apply hot compresses for fifteen minutes every two hours. As ill health may be the cause, a tonic may be needed; glasses properly fitted should be worn and a boric acid eye-wash used until long after the stye has disappeared." Applying hot compresses will relieve the congestion and gives much relief. I'll health produces a poor circulation of the blood and a good tonic will be found beneficial. Styes are frequently produced by need of glasses.

Treatment. Use gauze or cotton and dip in ice or cold water and apply to the eyelids . A wash of hot water can be used to cleanse the eye or ten to sixty grains ( one teaspoonful ) of boric acid to an ounce of water can be used as a wash also.

Treat the stomach and system if necessary. Ice or cold cloths against the stye may abort it. If it goes on, hot fomentations will hasten it. It should then be opened up and scraped out will soon heal then and will not leave a lump.

Homeopathic remedies originate from different sources. They were developed by Hanneman and employ the principle of like cures like. As in, a small amount of a substance ( that has been put through a series of dilutions) that would cause particular symptoms can be used to cure those same symptoms in a person already experiencing them. Homeopathy is a specific branch of Alternative Medicine using these remedies rather than pharmaceutical drugs.

I would like to know where you got your pharmaceutical grade castor oil because I cannot find it anywhere.

The NAC that you took was that N Acetyl Carnosine or N Acetyl Cysteine? and was the pill form?

Please let me know where you got them my husband has cataracts and needs help.

Thank you and we are both veterans as well

I absolutely LOVE this post. Truer words have never been written. We gotta do better if we are to beat big medicine at their game. These are the remedies of our ancestors. Someone took a chance, did the research & applied common sense. We have become mindless slaves to big medicine. We say we don't want to take a pill but the instant someone recommends an alternative home remedy we shun them & call them a QuackaDoodle. Yet none of us have a clue about what pharmaceutical companies are really packing in those plastic capsules...Chemicals & byproducts of even more dangerous chemicals. If the junk inside the plastic capsule was so great...why are you here? They will write you a rx for xyz but NEVER ask, "What are you eating? Do you exercise? How about fresh air?" NO ONE ever died of healthy positive living. Common sense is priceless...if you or your family member(pets included) is unwell do the research. Read very old medical books(before 1900 if possible), old Farmer's Almanacs or talk to old Veterinarians or ex field medics. Do missionary work, they make do w/ limited resources. Listen to your inner voice...if you learn about a new home remedy, research then introduce SLOWLY. Make a written log of what you are doing & be very aware of the changes your body is experiencing. Remember not every side effect is a bad thing. The crap gotta escape somehow. We got ourselves into this mess by blindly trusting people we thought had our best interests at heart. It's your body, your responsibility, So listen to it! ***Home remedies do not replace all medical problems. Seek care whenever life is threatened but never be afraid to ask questions. Be Well, Everyone.

♦ Essentiality of boron for healthy bones and joints ♦

About the Borax... I get my Boron in caps online. Good for arthritis. And most house plants. Boron deficient soil is a big reason for poor crop yields. Also take 1 Oz. ACV wi warm water daily for BPH. And Silodosin/Avodart daily. Also had the TURP conversation with my Urologist. On hold for now as I just finished a few months of passing bladder and kidney stones. Seem to be on the mend as the stones are now rare and like dust in the toilet bowl.

Pee flow rates are improving, and do not have to get up as often as before.

Of 4 heart doctors only 1 knew about nattokinase and K2, and he was a research doctor. He and the 3 others prescribed Crestor which they love because it attaches to plaque, but 3 years later I developed PAD and finally convinced my doctor to go back to Lipitor. I was taking some nattokinase but doctor put me on plavix so I quit taking my nattokinase. I now have (I think) internal bleeding and my heart doctor said I can trust the baby aspirin and quit the plavix. I will do that but go to somewhere near 10,000 fu nattokinase. PS: love your info.

You cannot go wrong with this remedy which worked wonders for my three year old plantar fasciitis:

Equal measures of castor oil, shea butter oil, strong topical pain relief cream, and menthol crystals (sold on eBay). Mix together and apply topically twice daily.

Good luck.

  Carditone for High Blood Pressure

Hi Ernie,

Previously I wrote the manufacturer to ask if they had a workaround for this stuffy nose issue and they said they didn't. Unfortunately, even though it is working for your blood pressure, it is not likely you will be able to continue to use it. You are the third person that has reported this problem on EC.

Carditone for High Blood Pressure

It does work, there is no doubt about that. However, every time I take it my nose gets stuffed up horribly. Is this something that gets better with time? I already have sleep apnea so sprinkling nasal congestion on top isn't helpful, but if it's just a temporary side effect it may be worth the short term struggle.

Hi, My wife also suffers from migraines. I wonder what doses of EDTA have you received, was it IV or oral treatment, and have you taken activated charcoal or zeolite in addition to EDTA? Sorry for my bad english, it is not my native language... Best regards, John

Dear Jill,

5 drops per teaspoon carrier oil (to make a 3% solution). Jojoba oil is a good carrier. Castor oil is a little messier, but also helps oils to penetrate and is anti-tumor as well.

For short term use, you can make a 25% dilution. (1 teaspoon Frankincense to 3 teaspoons carrier oil.) And, to be honest, I have used it straight with no irritation at all. Avoid contact with eyes, as with all essential oils.

Slippery Elm Tea for Sore Throat and Lost Voice

I began to lose my voice gradually on Wednesday evening, and by Friday night I could only whisper. I gargled with salt water, honey, acv, and cayenne those days. Saturday morning (still only whispering at this point), I bought some slippery elm capsules (and took them twice a day), as well as some "soothing throat tea", with the second ingredient being slippery elm. I drank 5 cups on Saturday and a couple on Sunday. By Sunday afternoon I had my voice back (not perfect, but I can use my vocal chords).
