Re: Long Bout Of Diarrhea Resolved With Ginger Root Capsules In 3 Days
1 month agoThe outcome is great however she should still have a colonoscopy/endoscopy w/H pylori workup to find out the reason for the 3mos bout of diarrhea. Sometimes that's a sign of stomach/gastric cancer or gastritis. I agree ginger is a miracle put here on earth, I use it but this should have a diagnosis, jmo!
Frequent UTIs Since Spinal Cord Injury in 1988
1 month ago1 dropper full Methylene Blue 0.5 AM and 1/8 heaping teaspoon each borax and baking soda PM
Good morning from Houston Texas,
I had a spinal cord injury in 1988 that caused neurogenic bladder/bowel. I self cath for the urinary condition. As I mature, UTI's are more frequent and were making me sick until I started using MB in the morning and Borax/baking soda evening. Baking soda works really well for deep heartburn/reflux so I'd prefer to not stop it. I've been doing this regime for 3 months, my urine is healthy and I've had no UTI's. I stopped the MB for a week and got sick. I don't really know what's going on, I had a sore throat for a brief moment and quite nasally so I find it quite unnerving to be walking around with a fever only. I can go to the local drug dealers office if necessary. I already went to the local urgent care and was tested for UTI, covid, flu and strep but all negative. I am insulin dependent, so I stay proactive. I was wondering if I'm using too much MB & Borax or to see if you have a better regime. I may be going overboard. As I have aged, the UTI's are now making me sicker and want to continue my regime but was wondering what you may suggest or recommend. I would prefer to continue the more holistic approach instead of endless rounds of antibiotics.

Three Month Bout Of Diarrhea Resolved With Ginger Root Capsules In Three Days
1 month agoThree Month Bout Of Diarrhea Resolved With Ginger Root Capsules In Three Days
A friend recently told me she had been having stomach upset and diarrhea for over three months making it almost impossible to leave the house during those three months and her doctor had not been able to resolve the issue. I asked her why she waited so long to mention it and she said that she was thinking that the tea she was using was going to resolve the problem, but clearly it hadn't.
I suggested she try ginger root capsules, but she said she was already taking a combination tea that contained ginger root. I asked her how long she had been taking it and she said about 2 1/2 months. I asked if she felt it was helping at all and she said the diarrhea is still ongoing. I said that would suggest that the tea is not working.
I again suggested the ginger root capsules because they should have the needed potency to help her diarrhea and stomach upset. She reluctantly agreed to try the capsules. Here is a link to the supplement I suggested she try at the label recommended dosing schedule of 2 capsules per day :

I also told her that if she didn't get relief from the diarrhea within five days she would have to go back to her doctor for more testing and diagnosis because three months of diarrhea is very unhealthful for her as it depletes the body of needed nutrients and fluids.
I didn't hear back from her for over a month so I contacted her and asked her how she was doing? She said after 2 to 3 days on the ginger root capsules her diarrhea was gone! She said she is still taking the ginger root capsules just in case. I told her it was fine because ginger root is also useful for diabetes type 2, insulin resistance, high cholesterol as well as raising HDL cholesterol and lowering triglycerides.
She said she is much better these days and able to go places again without fear of diarrhea popping up.

Re: Morton's Neuroma
1 month agoDiane, I tried the Lugol's and DMSO since I had those handy. I was shocked when 10 minutes later I checked and my foot felt fine. I'm competing to qualify for a skating event that's important to me in two days and I was worried about my foot interfering. I feel hope I can perform at my top ability without worrying about this for pain. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Re: Oregano Oil for D.diff

1 month agoRe: General Health Statement
1 month agoA groundbreaking study published in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine has upended long-held beliefs about genetic determinism, revealing that lifestyle choices can outweigh hereditary risks and extend lifespan by years.
After tracking 353,742 adults over 13 years, researchers found that individuals with genetic predispositions for shorter lifespans could offset their risk by more than 60%—adding up to 5.5 years to their lives—simply by adopting four key habits: never smoking, exercising regularly, prioritizing sleep, and eating a healthy diet. The findings challenge Western medicine's fatalistic view of genetics and empower individuals to take control of their health outcomes.
This is just another study that debunks genetic predisposition. I do not understand why people believe that their health is determined by their parents/grand parents etc. That just takes the accountability off of people. So they can say 'it runs in my family to get cancer in your 50's', or 'obesity runs in the family'. No, not at all. It does not. Obesity according to the medical books affects 3.1 percent of population from birth. But can be regulated and modulated to reduce its effects for your life. Obesity like almost every other one out there, is caused by yourself. It is and they all are lifestyle diseases.
Think about it. If your obese...what do you eat? How much do you eat? Do you eat calories according to your activity level and needs? Is the food you eat healthy? Full of additives and sugars?
If you have diabetes...are you engaging in too many carbs? Too much sugar? Going to diet this or zero that drinks thinking its good!
Once again, EC is a wonderful place and I am glad its here to help those that go searching for it.
But...we need an accountability wake up call to most people. When the statistics came out last year that Canadians/Americans are 68 percent obese, 83 overall are overweight, 71 percent on meds, and the rate of severe illness is 1 in 2 people......man, if that doesn't wake you up to lifestyle changes and a slap in the face to get up and change your life no matter how hard it will be-then nothing will!
Minus a small portion of society that is ill from other uncontrollable factors...stop blaming genetics or other reasons for your issues/problems. You want to see the problem, take a good hard long look in the mirror. I know its hard, but it can be done! With the help of EC and motivation you can do anything.
Comfrey for Broken Bones
1 month agoDear Iowa,
I did see your post about using comfrey to heal your broken bone and am thrilled to read your success story!
I agree with your encouragement to others to grow comfrey if at all possible. I am terrible at growing plants. I have killed practically everything I have tried to grow but my comfrey plant continues to flourish in spite of my terrible neglect. It kindly provides me with leaves all summer whenever I desire them.
Thank you for taking time to share your story. I am sure it will be an encouragement to others.

Re: How to Use Diatomaceous Earth for Ear Mites in Dogs?
1 month agoIF your dog had a hacking cough, & if it was related to using DE, it was because it was BREATHED INto its lungs ... NOT ingested as recommended.... I *always* mix a little water in dry food w/ DE, or mix it into canned/moist food ... before serving it to them to eat, which keeps them from being able to breath it in.

1 month agoRe: Salt and Spit Remedy for Breast Lump
1 month agoIt's not actually all that odd as people usually find reports of remedies in connection with the issue being addressed.
Many are familiar with the healing powers of urine but few know that spit is, essentially, also urine. Most bodily fluids are various forms of the body's own plasma - which is what urine is - and nearly all of them contain urea.
Saliva was considered "heavenly water" in old Buddhism and Yoga.
The next time you don't feel well, run your tongue all around the mouth to generate saliva, swish it around in your mouth and then swallow.
In many cases regarding stomach or digestive issues, one can experience its effect almost instantly.
Even the nastiest urine of sick individuals is full of nutrients and water and fresh urine and saliva contain live stem cells - though once exposed to air, their life expectancy is measure in seconds (approx 20 seconds) so you have to be pretty quick with the urine but you can sip the heavenly water anytime. Or all day, if you want.
Even Jesus was reported to have cured a blind man with spit and clay.

Comfrey for Broken Bones
1 month agoI would recommend that anyone who lives in an area where Comfrey (Boking 14) can grow, go ahead and plant it. In my northern NY garden, it has made an attractive plant with pretty purple blooms. Other than chopping it down each fall and spreading the leaves in my flower beds, it has required no tending. Deer don't especially like it. I planted it about 8 years ago and needed it recently when I broke a metacarpal bone in my palm. I chose not to have the surgery and plate that the hand specialist recommended; mostly because I had a full calendar. Instead, I used Mama to Many's recipe to make a Comfrey oil infusion. When the cast was removed and I was put back in a splint, I began to massage the Comfrey oil into my hand a few times per day. It was immediately so soothing and the change in the appearance of my hand happened almost over night. I now rub in the Comfrey oil before practicing making a fist, which is a painful exercise without first applying the Comfrey. Recently, on my 6 wk visit to the specialist, I was released as a patient and was encouraged to go ahead and use my hands, rather than a spade while gardening. My hand is improving rapidly. I felt too shy to tell the Dr it was the Comfrey that had sped the healing, but I wish I had. I hope Mama To Many sees this and knows what a help she has been to me.
