Borax Side Effects - Loopy Strange Feeling
1 hour ago
Greetings, I made a borax solution using one quart of water with 1/8 teaspoon of Mule borax dissolved overnight. I drank one cup of solution this morning followed by two more cups of water. I began feeling strange. It's difficult to describe: a loopy feeling where I felt as though I might be exiting reality. I didn't feel right and grew scared. Has anyone experienced this? Please reply as I'm anxious and really need feedback so I may continue use of borax in this matter. I have had candida for years. Thank you kindly
Spearmint for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (Pcos) Acne
1 hour agoSpearmint has been a savior for my skin. I'm 65 years old and struggled with hormonal acne from PCOS all my life, especially post-menopause when my acne suddenly got worse, due to lack of estrogen. I discovered spearmint maybe only about seven years ago and it's made a huge difference. As of today, I'm blemish-free, but I'm a constant work in progress. Here's the thing: Having oily skin can be a double-edged sword. When you're young it's a pain with all the acne, but when you're old and you've figured out how to hold the reins on your oily skin, there's no wrinkles!

Re: Remedies for Lymphedema
1 hour agoAnn, diuretics (like celery juice) don't really cure edema. They can help but it sounds like your problem is chronic. I have had a very good experience beating back edema fast with water-only fasting. Fasting resets the pancreas and directly addresses the metabolic disturbance that is typically behind edema esp. in older or overweight persons. Earth Clinic has a whole section on fasting. You will be amazed at the results! :-)
Re: Coconut Oil on Skin Causing Rash
1 hour agoI just wanted to say I‘ve had hormonal acne from PCOS all of my life and have tried everything out there. I've now got it under control now through diet and anti-androgen supplements like spearmint and a supplement that helps bring down your stress hormones (cortisol). When you're overly stressed, that can cause breakouts as well. And guess what?
Coconut oil is definitely a no-no! Just sayin'. It's on the list below:

Can Borax Cause Hair Loss?
1 hour agoI just began taking the boron solution of 1 quart water mixed with 1/8 teaspoon borax. I am a 110 pound female. After only drinking one cup of the solution I felt very odd as though I had been poisoned (light headed, heart racing, feeling of slipping out of reality) however these feelings wore off after a few hours. I really wish to continue drinking the solution to heal. I am very concerned it is going to make my hair fall out at such a high dosage. Has anyone experienced this? I attempted to search for comments regarding this issue however couldn't find any. Thank you kindly

Re: Cancer
1 hour agoCancer loves iron that's why they tell you no red meat during cancer treatment. Red meat is very high in iron as is broccoli. There are also fruits high in iron so switch to other fruits and veggies during your treatment and try to get organic as much as possible, esp apples and potatoes which are sprayed with pesticides.

12 hours agoAbout how long did it take you to get cured. I've had this condition for about 7 years now. Even moderate relief would be fantastic. My legs are sooooo swollen and oozing from just above my ankles to half way up my calves. Now I'm having trouble walking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Re: Son With Down Syndrome
12 hours agoYou can also try using a comfrey salve or moringa oil. These two herbs accelerate healing but you have to make sure the wound is not infected and cleaned especially if you try comfrey. Anytime I have a new cut or wound I clean it then add moringa oil (Pura Vida Organic Moringa) and cover it with a band aide for 2 days. Once the wound has started healing and closing I switch to comfrey to further accelerate wound healing and reduce scarring. The wounds heal so quickly it's hard to believe. Also, for the lip fissure and wound healing as well you can use L-Lysine (also found in meat). It's an amino acid widely used to treat cold sores and prevent future outbreak. You can take pills or use the lip cream to treat it. Lysine also promotes wound healing as I mentioned above, it reduces anxiety, clears all acne, improves calcium absorption, reduces pain, and has many other benefits. Also note, wound healing is impaired without adequate lysine. I take 1,000 mg daily for all the benefits mentioned.
Re: Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy for Fibromyalgia
12 hours agoNo. Evidently nasal spray doesn't reach that area where viruses replicate and live, the medical community has known that for a long time. This is a much better technique. As for the name, I gave you what it's called on Amazon. It comes in a white bottle with a dropper, it simply says "Zinc Complex" on the front.

Surprise today: my lab showed jump of the total cholesterol to 307, Triglycerides to 221, LDL, VLDL - all higher then last one I'm 70 years and vegetarian diet with no eggs.
Melatonin Lotion Question for Art
23 hours agoHi Debra,
For the easy mix that I described, each ounce contains approximately 250 mg of melatonin and the breakdown looks somewhat like this :
3 oz. = 750 mg melatonin
2 oz. = 500 mg
1 oz. = 250 mg
3/4 oz. = 187.5 mg
1/2 oz. = 125 mg
1/4 oz. = 62.5 mg
1/8 oz. = 31.25 mg
1/16 oz. = 15.625 mg
You are trying to compare a 20 mg capsule of melatonin to the lotion and they are not really comparable because with oral melatonin only about 3% is bioavailable to the body and it is pretty much done within 5 hours in the body. Whereas topically applied melatonin lotion (ML) or melatonin gel (MG) accumulate in the stratum corneum layers and then release over an approximate 24 hour period, somewhat similar to a patch. ML and MG also reach much higher local tissue levels. As an example of how this makes a significant difference between ML and oral melatonin, a friend who had liver cancer would get pain in the area of his liver that 360 mg of oral melatonin could not touch, but ML applied directly over the liver area could stop the pain very effectively in less than 5 minutes.
I have written a lot about the health value of melatonin on EC and you can find much of it by searching the index. Melatonin is protective of the major organs while be anti inflammatory and a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen species. It helps fight the toxicity of heavy metals as well as helping to protect against ionizing radiation among many other health benefits that it offers to humans, animals and plant life. It also is a cancer fighter through multiple methods of action.
