1 month agoCelery Leaves and Bark For Chilblains
1 month agoEach winter, as the cold sets in, I find myself battling the same miserable condition — red, swollen, painfully itchy hands. The doctors call it perniosis or chilblains, but to me it just feels like my fingers are trying to crawl off and escape.
After trying various creams, ointments, and advice (some helpful, some not), I stumbled on a surprisingly effective, simple remedy — using celery leaves and bark.
Here's what I do:
I boil a handful of celery leaves and bark in water for 10–15 minutes. Let the liquid cool until it's warm, but still as hot as the skin can safely take. I then soak my hands in the solution for about 5 minutes.
That's it. The itching stops almost immediately, and the swelling settles not long after. It's become my go-to winter treatment, and it has worked reliably for years.
‘Why might it work? Celery is rich in anti-inflammatory compounds, and the warmth itself helps reopen constricted blood vessels, easing the worst of the symptoms. Whether it's the plant, the heat, or a bit of both — it works. And it's gentle, with no side effects I've seen. So, if your hands suffer like mine do in the cold, give it a try. It's safe, natural, and already in your kitchen. Wishing warm hands to all who need them.

We have to take into account the censorship that medical professionals are subject to.
Example with vit D: if we follow the official recommended dosages (here in France), you'll barely keep alive, but you'll never increase your serum vit D level.
As for borax, I've read that you should gradually increase the dosage, so listen to your body and do it carefully.
Be sure to take cofactors as a precaution (vit D, good quality magnesium, etc.).
Re: Fluoride Connection and Fibro
1 month agoI realize this post was done in 2008 and since then a lot of what is written has been proven wrong. We do know that fibromyalgia is autoimmune and you have to have the genetic defect for it. If it was caused by Fluoride, most people would have it here in America since our water has Fluoride added to it. We do know if not caused by trauma it's caused from a virus. There's also a lab test for it called the FM/a test. I doubt it's covered by ins which means this one test can cost probably over $500+. Most healthcare providers just do the "trigger point" test. We've come a long way since the 17yrs this has been posted. Many sufferers are turning onto tDCS and other therapies instead of Rx which has not only high costs but also many side effects. Nearly every person who has fibromyalgia has also tested positive for the Epstein Barr Virus. I continue to do E.A.T. with positive results.
Re: Fix A Frozen Shoulder Easily with Chin Up Bar
1 month agoI found the Kirsch Dead Hang protocol after injuring my rotator cuffs doing slow, deep dips. I was fine doing fast dips that went slightly below 90 degrees, when I tried deep and slow, way below 90 degrees, it wrecked my shoulders. This was around January 2025. The pain is Particularly in the right rotator cuff which was already injured in 2008 at a Halloween party throwing the football too much even after my rotator cuff started to hurt.
I tried this dead hang starting around end of April 2025. At first it was so painful it felt like sharp knives in the deltoid near the “V” of the Delt which connects to the side of the bicep to give you an idea. There are four muscles of the rotator cuff, the infraspinatus, supraspinatus, teres major and teres minor. The 2008 injury felt more like the infraspinatus. I'm not quite sure which this is, but it's never been this painful all over the deltoid area.
I couldn't even put the whole dead weight on it, I just slowly lowered myself with feet still on the ground. I can't even shoot a basketball without it sending a sharp pain through my shoulder area. The extension of the arm and flicking of the wrist when I tried was a pain like none other. A zinger for sure.
I wasn't sure I could keep going because the pain in the right shoulder was too intense but glad I've stuck it out. The pain is at least 90% gone when I do them now and I can do full dead weight hangs from a pull-up bar / chin-up bar. I didn't do the hanging every day either. Just about once every three days. I also use an electronic ball massager at night with some castor oil lathered on my shoulders.
I'm still not completely healed but I'll update when it's completely healed.
Re: Art's Memory Loss Protocol
1 month agoThanks, that's good to know. We'll stay consistent with the current regimen and give it more time. She's not on any medication at the moment. She does have a history of falls from certain supplements, and I've read that melatonin could potentially increase that risk—so I'll need to weigh that carefully. Appreciate the guidance.

Re: Apple Cider Vinegar, Baking Soda to Lower Blood Sugar
1 month agoPlease can you tell me if I can take this with Lisinopril hbp meds or should I stop the BP meds .. I read if I took this it could help with both cholesterol and HBP as well as diabetes.
Isnt Bicarbonate of soda high potassium which interacts with BP meds. When I take it it seems my BP gets really high even when I take 1/16 of a spoon 2x per day.
Tissue & Bone Ointment For Bone Issues
1 month agoStill using Dr. Christopher's Complete Tissue & Bone ointment and noticed something interesting which was small changes in how my legs were feeling, overall. They just felt better - so I've been researching its ingredients one by one and found something VERY interesting! Of course, scullcap was the very LAST herbal ingredient before beeswas, ROFL!
From Dr. Christopher's own writings on the subject of SCULLCAP:
I disagree with the suspicion that one doctor treating 1400 cases would have been odd in 1774, I think if you're the only one curing rabies in a new land where it might be pretty common, you're going to have a LOT of cases - and REPEATING cases in a small community where one could contract the disease repeatedly, once a case was cured and the individual stopped treatment.
I wasn't using the nerve tincture everyday and kept having these bouts of days when my legs felt EXTRA good and found the Nerve tincture was the culprit!! And the improvement was happening every time I used it (just a half dropper under the tongue at a time) ! So it's like it's instantaneous! It wakes up, reconnects, feeds, repairs and, with the scullcap, over time, regenerates the nerves between the brain and the muscles!
So, anyway, I thought ya'll might find that as interesting as I did as there is no "ailment" page here for "aging" and why would there be?Since the issues attributed to aging aren't considered ailments...
Borax Dosing
1 month agoI'm curious as to why it's recommended to take borax diluted in a liter of water over several hours. I've heard of some people who take 1/8 to 1/4 TSP in their morning coffee. Is that not advisable?
Second question - Dr Jorgas Flechas gave his wife 150 mg of borax daily to reverse osteoporosis. Has anyone had a similar experience? If you have what dose did you take and how long before you saw results?
Re: Melatonin and Borax Questions for Art
1 month agoHi Art! Thanks for your response. Hopefully this will be my last question to make sure I am following the best protocol for my knee OA. Right now I am drinking the Borax water (5 days on and 2 days off) and using the Melatonin Lotion 3x a day. In browsing this site, I saw people also using baking soda along with the Borax. Do you recommend this? If so, how much should I add to the daily mixture?

1 month agoWas the Thieves oil irritating at all for your mom? I am treating cellulitis with antibiotics and steroid ointment. Most everything I've tried has irritated my skin or not worked. It started out as contact dermatitis, so I don't know if that's why I'm having difficulty. Fortunately, the antibiotic seems to be working, even though I prefer not to take it.
Re: Ivermectin
1 month ago@ Arwa (Dubai)
The 1.87% Ivermectin gel (or paste), which is the same strength as the human version which is a pill. I followed the (per weight) directions on the back. Take 4 bar's worth = 125lbs. (by your weight) once a day for 3 days. Mild apple flavor taste. Washed it down with water. Many farm and feed stores offer it like TSC “Tractor Supply Company” here in the USA.
Everyone I have treated with Ivermectin has been with the horse paste. It easy to acquire, no questions asked, OTC.
Note: I've been hearing rumors about third party seller are selling some Horse Paste sold on Amazon being COUNTERFEITS. Probable made in China. The cap and syringe are the wrong colors and shape. Durvey the manufacture of ivermecin horse paste is aware of this problem and has informed Amazon
Re: Apple Cider Vinegar Reaction
1 month agoGood question. I've been taking ACV for a few weeks now and thank G-d no reaction. I take less, though. (1tbsp in a cup of water, twice daily). I once tried taking a higher dose but I got nauseous from it, so I keep to my lower dose and like what it's doing for me.

Heavy Metals, Agent Orange Exposure and Triple Bypass
1 month agoRisk assessment
I'm somewhat maybe you could say contaminated! In the Marines at 17 years old, with training time at Camp LeJeune during water contamination, served at Ramasun Station with Agent Orange exposure, spent 40 years as a machinist/Tool Maker where I've been diagnosed with heavy metal exposure. 10 years ago had triple bypass! Weirdly I function fairly well on my little mini farm and keep up with a fairly physical and outside labors but wondered what I at 72 years old ought to be on the lookout for and preventative measures to carry on naturally?
Re: Ivermectin
1 month agoHair Dryer for Scabies
1 month agoHere I thought I "invented" this method. Lol BUT IT WORKS WELL. Like other people r sayi.g, it works instantly.u can feel all the scabies moving/trying to get away from the heat. That entire section of ur skin under the heat comes alive. Be sure that u can suffer 122-124°f temps. That inself is torturous but it works.
I also turned the hotwater heater up to 130°f so im getting about 124°f out of the shower head.this works well to especially for places u cant reach nor put Ivermectin or Permethrin cream on. I live alone (I got scabies from x, what a "gift"). Anyway the hot showers are what I started with and most of the scabies have cleared out off my belt line and everywhere else EXCEPT for that one little spot in the middle of my back. Treatment continues.
Anything and every piece of clothing that I take off instantly goes in the dryer. My dryer is 138° consistantly. For bed linings I dry one pice at a time to make sure that high temp hits everypart of the linines.
I have this for a 5-6 weeks but I only knew I had scabies for 2 wks now. After reading other post I guess I may have several more weeks to rid the house and of these horrible microscopic demons. O m g! I HATE THEM.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.
