22 days agowell his post is in the year 12, but cannot find K-01 prostate rehabilitator.
A german company has on the market Magcell Microcirc and it has been through a study that proves its effectiveness. Granted it was a small study. Not sold in the US but it is sold in the UK, germany and a couple of other countries. You can google it.
"This may help someone.Twelve years ago I was tested and found to have an enlarged prostate with no cancer present. I looked at the then rather horrific treatments for the condition and found a small German machine called a Magcell Microcirc that had been tested on dog's prostates for this condition (dogs having a similar prostate structure to humans) and was found to reduce or stop thecenlargement. Not cheap but just slipping this under the crotch for a few minutes morning and evening with no discomfort or side effects for the last ten years halted and somewhat reversed my condition."
A study was conducted on men since the person wrote that expose.
Cedarwood Oil, Goat Milk for Toenail Fungus
22 days agoAfter years of unsuccessful faithful daily application of commercial fungus products and a podiatrist's “solution” of cutting his toenail out, a goat milk cream with Cedarwood essential oil was tried. The goat mama who makes it said it was necessary to have those two in combination—GOAT MILK & good quality therapeutic (not just aromatic for the “perfume”) CEDARWOOD essential oil. We were amazed!!! In only one week of daily application, the fungus was finally gone and his nail looked normal, healthy and beautiful!

Art's Melatonin Lotion for Varicose Vein Pain
22 days agoAbout seven months ago, a friend told me he was having pain in his legs so he went to the doctor and his doctor told him he had varicose veins and suggested he wear the stockings designed for this purpose. My friend wears shorts very often so he said he didn't really want to wear the stockings and asked if I would suggest something else. I told him, you already have melatonin lotion (ML) that I had given him for a previous issue, so you might as well see if it helps and I asked him to let me know what happens and he said he would.
That was 7 months ago, and after just having made a reply to an EC member with varicose veins last night, I decided to call him to find out if the ML had helped at all since I had no previous feedback on ML for varicose veins. At first he said he didn't know if it had helped or not because he had run out of ML after applying it for about one month and had not made any more. I asked him if he noticed any pain relief while he was using it since he had previously told me his legs were quite painful, and he said, yes, he did notice pain relief. So I asked him how long the pain relief lasted after he stopped using ML and he said, it hasn't come back. That's over 6 month's of being pain free! I was excited with his results, but he was not.
I asked him why he didn't let me know about his great results and he told me because I wasn't sure that it was because of the ML or something else. I then asked him if he had used anything else that was new during the period when he was using ML and he thought about it for quite awhile before saying, no, he hadn't used anything else.
I reminded him that the nature of untreated varicose veins is that they just continue to worsen. I asked him if he thought the pain went away on its own? He said no, I guess it was the melatonin lotion. I suggested that he make a new batch and continue using it since it appeared to be keeping him pain free. He agreed and said he would, but he wasn't even a bit excited about his results.
I'm going to go ahead and call this another win for ML, but there is no science that I am aware of to support that melatonin can help varicose veins and this one instance only shows that it can potentially relieve the pain caused by varicose veins, but given that I have heard how bad that pain can be, I think my friends experience is important and possibly helpful for many others with varicose veins.
I also feel that the fact that the pain did not come back immediately after stopping ML applications and has still not come back after at least 6 months of no ML, suggests to me that there were some potential reparative effects going on in my friends veins? I asked him if he didn't think it was significant that he had had no more pain in his legs for the past 6 months since previously it had been pain everyday to varying degrees? He had to think about it for quite awhile and he finally grudgingly agreed that 6 months of no pain was very significant. I was pretty dumfounded by his responses, but ML appears to be useful for pain caused by varicose veins!

The tincture will turn a brown color during the steeping process. This is normal.
Instead of filling the mason jar ¾ full with osage orange, go ½. This will allow for expansion of the pulp.
Other herbs I used were dandelion, burdock, olive leaf, elderberry and others but I have forgot.
Re: Art's Topical Melatonin Lotion
23 days agoHi again, AnnaM,
I forgot to mention that the shoulder pain and itching can be caused by nerve issues that often times originate at the spine and melatonin helps with nerve repair. I believe it is called Notalgia Paresthetica (NP) and melatonin has shown potential to help, as you have seen!

Re: Art's Topical Melatonin Lotion
23 days agoHi AnnaM,
Yes, I realized it was someone else that I was thinking of who had breast cancer, after I came across our conversation after I had replied to you.
That is a very useful group of supplements you are working with and it looks like you have done your homework!
Wow, that is a lot you are dealing with!
It's been awhile since I replied to you and I was wondering how you were doing.
As far as the peripheral neuropathy pain, melatonin lotion should help for that too. It also has nerve reparative effects with longer term daily use. If you read the original ML article and replies you are already aware of some of its many uses. A recent finding in a friend is that topically applied over the heart area, it helped calm his pounding heart arrythmia and allows him to go right to sleep. within about 15 minutes. Topically applied like that, it accumulates in the stratum corneum and is released over an approximate 24 hour period into the blood. Yes, it goes systemic when topically applied. Melatonin has also shown benefit for stroke recovery. The science is very limited (animal studies), but melatonin and Apigenin may also be helpful with seizures.
It may also be useful for the breast cancer as discussed here :
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12133437/
Here is a very important quote from the link that should definitely interest you:
' MLT produced by the pineal gland activates the sleep-wake cycle and exhibits a broad range of other activities, including antioxidant, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anti-metastatic, antiproliferative, antineoplastic, antiestrogenic, and anticarcinogenic effects. Indeed, there is a significant amount of data from clinical and laboratory trials that show MLT can exhibit anticarcinogenic activity against cancer, including apoptosis, oncostatic, antiproliferative, and antineoplastic properties. MLT inhibits initiation, progression, and metastasis in cancer. It is an important medication against cancer because it may trigger several anticancer mechanisms in breast cancer. The peculiar feature of MLT is the fact that it prevents entrance of cancer cells into the circulatory system and forbids them from spreading in the distant regions. '
As far as SIBO, 5 of the best supplements I am aware of are garlic extract, berberine, oregano oil soft gels, probiotics and digestive enzymes that also contain betaine HCI.
Balance issues can be a lot of different things, but one simple one you can easily test is the Epley Maneuver as discussed here to realign the ear crystals :

When you say frequency generator, are you referring to a Scenar Therapy device? I have used it, if that is what you are referring to, but it requires a lot of time and effort and it isn't cheap so I don't usually recommend it.
To help with focus, methylene blue is sometimes helpful in sharpening that up. It may have potential for gut microbiome issues, but the science isn't really there.
The pain and itching are ML regulars. It is also helpful for atopic dermatitis. Quite useful for neck pain and other spinal issues as melatonin has spinal reparative qualities including beneficial effect on spinal discs. shoulder pain sometimes originates in the neck area of the spine and if applying the ML to the neck relieves the shoulder pain, that will be a huge clue. Melatonin has also shown to cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) and reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the brain. These are two very brain damaging components in many neurodegenerative diseases, so knocking them down is very important. In some cases melatonin has helped improve circulation in the hands and feet which may be helpful for cold feet, but low iron/anemia is a common cause of cold feet, but your doctor says that is not your problem. I don't have any experience with it yet, but melatonin has shown some benefit with certain vascular issues. Melatonin has shown some benefit with age related macular degeneration. I use melatonin gel instead of lotion as I am able to apply it on my face closer to my eyes without irritation. The gel has less other ingredient and is made the same way as the ML, just substituting aloe vera gel for the lotion in the original mix.
The astaxanthin you are taking is a very useful supplement!
If you decide to try anything that I mentioned above, because of your multiple health issues, you will need to get approval and supervision from your doctor first in order to be safe!
I tried to answer everything you mentioned, but I'm sure I missed things. Good luck and keep us posted on how your recovery goes!
