I know this is quite old but I'm just wondering how you're doing now? I was recently diagnosed but do not want to take PPIs. And I'm really hopeful I can heal it naturally.

The easiest and most comfortable way to take oil of oregano is to put the liquid into empty, clear gel caps available online or health food stores. You can use the dropper and put in as much or as little as needed.

Going to give it a whirl. I been doing things to help it drain out but nothing has come of them. I got a bronchial infection months ago but the ears are still filled with fluid. And the antibiotics that were prescribed gave me a C diff infection. Go figure. Thanks for Zaditor advice it's definitely worth a try.

My Mom swore Vicks worked magic. She'd put onto a wad of tissue or cotton covered by it, put it in our ears overnight. So many of her and my grandmother's suggestions work beautifully.

Syrian Rue for Benzo Tapering

Syrian rue works for benzo withdrawal

Ayahuasca has been noted back in 2021 as an instant cure for benzo withdrawal and addiction: https://inscaperecovery.com/blog/2021/2/15/ayahuasca-and-benzodiazepines

After I read that, my friend Oliver tried syrian rue itself (no need for dmt) and found it instantly bounced all the clonazepam off his receptors (no more effects felt from clonaz) and took away all withdrawal, permanently. I can't find any clinical trials but here is the theoretical basis for how the main water-soluble drugs in rue would help benzo withdrawals:

https://www.perplexity.ai/search/theoretically-how-could-harmin-xId8NXyATMKb8PIga3yz5g#0

https://www.perplexity.ai/search/what-effects-do-harmine-and-ha-D3nINo9YSGOg0bQaBRlX5Q#0

More research must be done to see how effective this is for different people on different doses of different types of benzos.

Keep in mind also that harmaline and harmine have different effects, and rue contains different ratios depending on season of harvest (I've heard in winter you get 1:1, in summer 2:1 harmine:harmaline ratios). You could also extract or buy the isolated harmalas to play around with for individual variability. Harmaline is more relaxing and dreamy, like indica weed. Harmine is sort of a stimulating hypnotic, a bit more like sativa weed. Then there's tetrahydroharmine, which you could make by boiling the rue for many hours to convert 50% of harmaline to THH. This THH is the most clear-headed of the harmalas. I don't yet have any understanding of how THH would be useful for benzo withdrawal but Oliver will try that soon maybe. He felt at some point that THH was better for emotional release than other harmalas, but it is far from clear due to interfering variables.

Swish dmso for a minute, every hour or 2, and also brush it into the cavity with a very soft brush.

99.9% dmso is ok. Dilute in minimal water or no water. Water is only needed if you have dry mouth.

She swished the dmso hourly and after eating or drinking anything other than water. Also brushed the area with a super soft brush soaked in dmso. Borax, grass juice, and magnesium chloride also help.

Apple Cider Vinegar, Baking Soda and Coconut Oil for BCC

26 days ago
Posted by Yuri (Russia) on 04/05/2025
★☆☆☆☆

I've had a BCC on my head for several years now, in the form of a crater that bleeds and scabs, over and over again, and I've been trying to cure it with ACV and baking soda mixed with coconut oil, for 4 months now, to no avail at all. I've been doing the ACV applications daily, with organic ACV on a cotton ball, for several hours at a time. Same with the baking soda and coconut oil - I've done a mixture of them in a form of a thick paste, and been applying it to the BCC for several hours daily. But none of these treatments seem to help, and the BCC is still there.

Betadine doesn't clean exactly. It disinfects. So it's not useful to use it before dmso unless you are hoping to help the iodine penetrate the skin.

Use soap and water to wash any chemicals from your skin before using dmso. Or just don't put chemicals on your skin, because even without dmso they do absorb into your blood over time.

Thank you so much for posting. Very encouraging as I am dealing with a 14+ year old Catahoula Blue Heeler mix. My best friend and loyal pup. I will definitely keep an eye on the water and protein; been concerned about his cough but will get 2nd opinion since the last vet prescribed Lasics for "heart condition" - I believe it's his throat or esophagus and refused the Lasics due to side affects.

Thanks again!

Water Kefir does NOT require milk of any kind ... and its starter grains are from a different source .. .

What is Water kefir?

  • Fermented, fruit-infused water, similar to kombucha in that it's slightly fermented and effervescent-but water kefir is fermented with live water kefir grains, which are a yeast-bacteria that is believed to originate from the pad of a cactus plant in Mexico.
  • Water kefir is completely different from Milk kefir. Not only is this a dairy-free probiotic, it's gluten-free.
  • Water Kefir Grains are “fed” with sugar and actually metabolize (consume) the sugar, making the final drink very low in sugar!

Frankincense Oil for Jaw Pain After Dental Cleaning

Hello, I am reporting on the use of frankincense oil on dental work jaw pain from large dose of local anesthetic during a deep tooth cleaning. My whole jaw muscle was aching to a level of 10 on the day after a deep gum cleaning. I pressed on my teeth, and determined it was the jaw muscle where the injections went that was causing the worst pain. I alternated with aspirin and ibuprofen for the initial pain treatment, but it didn't touch the jaw pain until l remembered the frankincense oil l had for muscle pain. Voila, relief within 10 minutes, and l was able to sleep til the next dose of aspirin and frankincense. whew, all she did was make sure l didn't feel any pain during the process. Thank you Earthclinic.

No, you can take it internally. Not sure where they got that idea. Stupidity is my guess.

We have been taking it for years daily. Our kids and their spouses as well.

It is reinvigorating.

@ Cecilia (Sweden)

Here in the USA tincture of iodine has the poison label on it. But, the label does not state WHY? The reason why is as follows.

Iodine is a naturally-occurring chemical that comes from sea kelp. Small amounts are needed for good health. However, large doses can cause harm. Children are especially sensitive to the effects of iodine.

Every country has a governing board of doctor's that determine what medicines will be available to there citizens. It sounds like Sweden is not telling you WHY you should not put it in your mouth.

Tincture and Lugols iodine have a long history of use both internally and externally in the old medical books (1850-1930) that I have read. And the dosage internally were extremely high compared to current dosage today. I've taken 6 drops lugols internally daily with no problem.

If you had Malaria, Malaria was treated with 20 drops of nascent iodine in a half glass of water given 4 or 5 times during the first day and then going to 10 drops of nascent iodine 4 times a day for 3 more days. A slide study of the blood shows that the malaria is gone from the body.

Lugol's Iodine (also called "Lugol's solution") was first developed by the French physician, Jean Lugol, in 1829.

Recipe – Ingredients:

10 parts potassium iodide (KI)

5 parts iodine crystals (this makes Lugol's Iodine 5%)

85 parts of (distilled) water

Note:

Potassium iodine is used in medicine and taken orally (used in anti-radiation meds). Iodine is used in medicine and taken orally in small dosage. Water is drank everyday. See my point?

Personally, I gargle with 5 drops iodine in water, I snorted it in water up my nose. I flush it in water in my ears. I'm still alive

Turpentine (Gum Resin) Oil for Ear-ache

Blend a spoon of clean turpentine with an equal amount of almond or olive oil and place a cotton ball squeezed in that mixture in your ear overnight. This would help alleviate the ear infection. From Article: The Sacred Heart Review, Volume 5, Number 6,3 January 1891

Deafness generally arises from deficient secretion of wax in the ear. The following remedy is in some cases useful:— Oil of turpentine, half a dram ; olive oil, two drams; mix, and insert a couple of drops in the ear at bed-time.
