Apple Cider Vinegar for Leg Cramps.

Those plagued with nighttime leg cramps can find relief by supplementing meals with a glass of water, fortified with apple cider vinegar.

Prevent leg cramps by combining 1 teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon *calcium lactate in 1/2 glass of water. This is taken once a day.

*Calcium lactate is a mineral that is used to treat or prevent low blood calcium levels (hypocalcemia) in people who do not get enough calcium from food. Calcium lactate is also used in the treatment of conditions such as osteoporosis, disorders of the parathyroid gland, or certain muscle problems.

@ Riley

Try adding honey to the ACV you drink and also wrapping your legs in ACV.

Relieve the discomfort and unsightliness of varicose veins by wrapping the legs with a cloth wrung out of apple cider vinegar. Leave this on, with the legs propped up, for 30 minutes, morning and evening. Considerable relief will be noticed within 6 weeks. To speed up the healing process, follow each treatment with a glass of warm water, to which a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and honey has been added. Sip slowly, and add a teaspoon of honey if feeling overtired.

Make a chart with each supplement and list what each is supposed to help with. If any supplements duplicate lowering of blood sugar, decide which one to keep and ditch the others.

"When cataracts form, the only way to restore sight is to remove the afflicted lens."

I cleared my cataracts by using drops of 4.2% N acetyl carnosine in distilled water with 10% DMSO that I added which prevents bacterial from forming in the mixture.

I agree with moderation of ACV. My experience with a teaspoon in about 6 oz of water before eating a meal with refined carbs: sometimes I feel like it balances the carbs and I feel fine. Sometimes I feel sleepy or sluggish after and I'm not sure if I had too many carbs for the teaspoon or if I've not had enough ACV for the carb count.

There needs to be a formula that incorporates weight, amount of carbs being consumed, and the amount of ACV needed to slow down the carb absorption (or the max carb consumption "allowed" for the max effective and/or "safe" dosage of ACV).

Does that make sense?

Seeking Help for Dog With Chronic Kidney Disease

25 days ago
Posted by Shereen (Mallorca Spain) on 09/05/2025

Hello,

Looking for some advice my 8 year old dog, who is now 33 kilos, Retriever Labrador, now has chronic kidney disease. I see apple cider vinegar is suggested but exactly how much? Should it be diluted in water and how much water. Does it need to be a special type? Is there anything else natural she should be taking that will help her recovery? She is on a prescriptive diet of Hills food for kidneys and medication prescribed by the Vet.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Art,

Thank you for your comprehensive list of which supplements I need. I am making myself crazy and wish there was one or two supplements out there that can give you everything you need for osteoporosis. And that these supplements are pure and third party tested. So confusing. Can you recommend any high quality supplement products? Thanks, Maria

  Re: Nebulizing Iodine

Hi amr2003,

I nebulized iodine because I had pneumonia and did not recover after the antibiotic. My lungs were heavy and I was concerned that I would relapse. I would not take an antibiotic again because of the gut issues I had and they just don't work well anymore. Now I just do Chlorine Dioxide, drop to drop, about 24 drops a day (build up to this). I take Chlorine dioxide while I neb, so it is getting infection everywhere in the body.

I used two drops of 2% Lugols iodine, seven sprays of food grade hydrogen peroxide (in an old nasal spray bottle), 1/2 tsp of colloidal silver and a tsp or so of 9% saline solution. I did this every hour for the first 3 hours of so, then would do every couple of hours and then just do peroxide and silver with saline. I had not done the iodine before so was cautious. On other days, I did it every hour I could for the whole day. In all, I did it a week and completely recovered.

I have nebulized for bronchitis and any time I had congestion. It works every time. I had no lung irritation from any of it. As long as you have a buffered saline you are fine.

I now take iodine internally and it never keeps me up at night. I think the insomnia from it is likely detox; have to agree with Bill Thompson on that one.
