1 month agoCandida Diet Protocol
1 month agoI've had health issues for many years and have tried many natural remedies. I have been reading earthclinic posts for a while and have followed some of the remedies. I'm now ready to follow the candida/fungus protocol perfectly - lugol's, turpentine, borax, diet, etc.
I'm still very confused with the diet. My diet is clean, no grains, no dairy, only organic, mostly home grown foods. I've tried a raw diet, months of juicing and even fasting and nothing seems to bring any relief.
My understanding for this diet is to eat no fruits and limited meat. I was unable to process proteins, so limited meat will be easy for me. My question is, do I eat only vegetables?
Thank you

1 month agoHi Jeff, it's been a while since your post. One person suggests alkaline, you said non alkaline. How important is this,? Also I'm juicing veggies as my once a day meal, starving myself for the rest of day. Also im a recent khemo patient. I'm also on probiotics, vit C, black seed, phenben, oil of oregano, digestive enzymes, black walnut hull, and an h-pylori supplement. Let me know about the alkaline thanks.

1 month agoHi,
I bought Amandha Vollmer's book (Healing with DMSO) and she recommend diluting it with distilled water. She does not recommend using it 99.99% at home. I have several bottles with various dilutions - 80%, 50%, 30% with aloe vera.
I always make sure the area I apply it to is clean. I then wash my hands (as anything on them will be carried through the skin). After application I wash my hands again and wait for the area where I have applied it to be dry before putting cloth on.
Ocean Water for Ringworm
1 month agoI had ringworm when I was like 11 years old or around that age. Tried everything and it never got rid of my ringworm, then I went swimming in the Puget sound, which is ocean salt water, and I went there and swam for 2 days or maybe 3. After swimming once it already stopped itching and swelling went down on the ring, then a few days later it was gone. There's always a natural cure out there for everything, I truly believe that.

1 month agoApple Cider Vinegar for Cystic Acne
1 month agoHi Heidi,
I know this response is several years late. I only found out about Earth Clinic recently. I have very dry skin, and when I tried apple cider vinegar on my face like you did my skin got even dryer. I guess it's not for all skin types. I do take ACV internally; 1 tbsp in a glass of water twice daily, and have seen results. DO NOT drink ACV straight; most people have a bad reaction to that. It also takes a few days (at least for me) for the resuts to kick in. Good luck!

1 month agoRe: Petty Spurge for Barnacle (Seborrheic Keratosis)
1 month agoThis is somewhat misleading. According to Grok: Euphorbia peplus is commonly known as petty spurge. It is also sometimes referred to as milkweed due to its milky sap, a characteristic shared with other Euphorbia species. However, calling it "milkweed" can be misleading because true milkweeds belong to a different genus, Asclepias, in the family Apocynaceae, whereas Euphorbia peplus is in the Euphorbiaceae family. The confusion arises because both plants produce a white, milky latex, and the term "milkweed" is sometimes loosely applied to Euphorbia species. However, botanically, Euphorbia peplus is not a true milkweed. Its primary common name is petty spurge, and it's best to use this to avoid confusion with Asclepias species, which are the true milkweeds known for supporting monarch butterflies.

Himalyan Sea Salt for Vasovagal Syncope
1 month agoI could not help but notice that most people talking about this find relief using electrolytes. I make my own salt drink called Sole using Himalayan Salt and I started having 2 tsp a day in water first thing in the morning, I am now up to 1 tbsp. The recipe for this is available on line and is very easy to make.
Also the vagal nerve runs from the brain to the colon and controls many things in the body, inflammation, digestion, heart health, asthma, lung health, GERD etc.. If this nerve becomes unbalanced it needs to be rebalanced - this can be be done by deep breathing, humming, singing, gargling water or having acupuncture.
In some cases it can become damaged.. A friend of my daughters had this happen from taking a certain popular weight loss drug that caused slow gastric emptying, it turns out that after she finished taking this drug her stomach did not go back to normal and the muscles in her stomach were damaged as was the vagal nerve. This can be a lot harder to fix..and may not even be a able to be fully fixed. She cannot eat properly any more at all, is allergic to everything, has difficulty swallowing, has no gag reflex, and cannot speak properly. Please do be careful and look very carefully at side effects of drugs.
As for salt, I know they say to cut down on that but there are other doctors who say we need to have 2-3 tsp a day. I recently had food poisoning from food I bought at a supermarket and had gastro for 5 hours which dropped my saline (electrolyte) levels to a very dangerous level. I became very confused, could not string a sentence together, was dizzy and could not walk properly. I ended up in hospital for several days and had to go on a saline drip to get my saline back up to normal levels.. I now take the Sole each morning, and also have pure Coconut Water available in the fridge to drink also. I used to drink a lot of water but then was told that this flushes too much salt out.. so now make sure I do not go above 2L of water per day.
I hope this information helps.. and I urge people to do your own research about salt. The body cannot live without it.

1 month agoNAC Topical For Glowing Skin?
1 month agoHi. Im curious if anyone has thoughts/ warnings about applying pure NAC powder dissolved in water, on skin. It stinks.
I have been applying it to my face and hands at dosage of half a gram in 3 or 4 shot glasses of water ( I don't measure the water). I don't do it every day. Ive not noticed any bad experience from it. I noticed nothing at all, good or bad, other than the smell is horrible. I was hoping it would fade freckles and sun damage, and make my skin glow.
Does anyone know if it is photo toxic? Would it be better to apply it at night?
Is applying it topically a bad idea?

Chronic PVCs: Possible Causes and Treatments?
1 month agoHi Sim 83,
Creatine is associated with arrythmias. So you may want to avoid it.
Low Magnesium and Potassium levels can be contributing factors to premature ventricular contractions (PVCs).
Anxiety and stress from increased adrenaline can also be contributing factors.
Sleep Apnea can be a contributing factor for PVCs.
Gas and bloating can also be a contributor to PVCs.
Coronary arterial disease is another common cause.
There are many potential causes for PVCs, but you need to discuss getting a C-Pap machine with your doctor or cardiologist because sleep apnea has multiple unhealthful consequences and because it can be one cause of PVCs, it needs to be dealt with and eliminated as a cause for your PVCs.
While you're seeing the doctor they can also check your potassium and magnesium levels to try and eliminate them as potential causes. You are way past due for some proper testing and diagnosing by your doctor/cardiologist or both.
Come back once you have those results and you should be able to get more information on the best remedies.
