Re: Knee Pain
1 month agoI also broke my ankle and fibula in an accident and had four 4” screws on either side of the ankle and a plate with 8 screws on the fibula. For over two years my foot was in pain and constantly swollen. Last Oct I asked them to remove all the hardware and I'm still healing but already there is a noticeable difference for me. Get the hardware out, use Dr Christopher's bone and tissue salve with some compression, maybe add nattokinase, serrapeptase, I'm going to try the melatonin lotion, best of luck!
Re: Supplements Helping Neuropathy
1 month agoIt takes a year for all gluten to leave the body. 2 weeks is not long enough. And I have since learned that it's not really the gluten we are alergic to, it's the glysophate (cancer causing pesticide aka R0und_p). I have been gluten free for 24 years. 2 years free of corn (it is hybridized), 2 years free of soy (it is GMO), 2 years free of sugar. And 95% dairy free.I lost 10 lbs of inflammation when going off of corn, soy, sugar and dairy.
Re: Cat With Blocked Nasal Passages and Eyes - Upper Respiratory Infection
1 month agoFirst thing I'd give your cat is Colloidal Silver. 1 to 2 Tsps.
I also wanted to ask how you know it's a Respiratory Infection? The reason I ask is this: One of my rescue dogs nearly died last year. She had eye gunk and a clogged nose too. In fact, I had to pick that dogs nose so she could breathe easier, for weeks. After noting her losing alot of weight and sleeping 20hrs a day, that she in fact had a parasite. I administered Colloidal Silver 3x a day, as well as 1 Tsp of Diamotaceous Earth at the same time. I'd put them on a spoon together and down the gullet they went. When she no longer had the eye snot, I knew she was clear. She gained the weight back very quickly.
Your fur baby is very sick right now and needs the Colloidal Silver right away! It's good for parasites too. Give your cat 1 or 2 tsps and you should see improvement within a day or two.
Fyi: for that very sick dog, within 1/2 hr of giving her the D.E. & Colloidal Silver combo, she ate!!! 1/2 hr!! Amazing.
Please update us if you can!
Re: Treating Dysautonomia
1 month agoIt is possible that our chronic health problems are related to a mismatch between our genetic profile (haplotype) and our current environment. This concept, often called gene-environment (G×E) interaction or evolutionary mismatch, suggests that genes adapted to a specific ancestral environment may malfunction when exposed to modern environmental stressors, toxins, or lifestyles.
Here is how your location and genetics could be interacting to cause health issues:
1. The HLA Haplotype and Immune Response
Specific HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) haplotypes, which determine how your immune system recognizes threats, can make you more susceptible to specific environmental triggers.
Environmental Sensitivity: Certain haplotypes may predispose you to severe immune reactions to mold, toxins, or Lyme disease, causing chronic fatigue, inflammation, and cognitive issues (brain fog).
Immune Misregulation: If you are in a location with specific infections or stressors that your particular haplotype cannot handle well, it can lead to chronic, low-grade inflammation.
2. Environmental Mismatch and Metabolic Issues
Your DNA may be "programmed" for a different environment. When that environment changes rapidly, it can lead to chronic disease.
Inuit Studies: Studies show that genetic variants (like in the ORMDL3 gene) can increase the risk of respiratory diseases like asthma and bronchitis, but this risk is significantly higher when moving from a traditional environment to a Westernized environment.
Metabolic and Digestive Disorders: Specific haplotypes, particularly in mitochondrial DNA or genes related to diet (like lactase persistence), are matched to specific geographical locations. Living in a location that does not match your ancestral diet or climate can lead to metabolic issues.
3. Location-Specific Triggers
Where you live can impact gene expression via environmental epigenetics, where external factors turn certain genes on or off.
Toxic Exposures: Genetic variants in detoxification genes (e.g., GSTM1) can mean your body struggles to break down environmental pollutants in specific areas.
Climate Factors: Differences in air quality, temperature, and sun exposure can activate different genetic pathways, leading to illnesses that vary by region.
Summary of How to Investigate
HLA Typing: Some practitioners use HLA typing to help identify why a patient might be highly sensitive to their specific environment.
Identify Triggers: Consider if your symptoms change when you travel or if they align with local environmental factors (humidity/mold, high pollution, specific toxins)
While your genes are not a "life sentence, " they can mean that certain environments are less optimal for you, triggering symptoms that wouldn't exist in a different setting.
While your genes are not a "life sentence, " they can mean that certain environments are less optimal for you, triggering symptoms that wouldn't exist in a different setting.
Could a different location help?
If your chronic issues are driven by specific environmental triggers (like humidity, high altitude, or specific allergens), relocating might reduce your "toxic load" or immune activation.
If your chronic condition doesn't respond to treatments, you could be living in a wrong place
Re: Scars on the Leg After Boils
1 month agoNutritional Yeast, B1 for GERD
1 month agoNutritional yeast (non fortified) and vitamin B1 (Thiamine) for Gerd
I was having Gerd symptoms for the last few days after struggling with it on and off for a year. I saw a video of a chiropractor talking about how B1 (Thiamine) deficiency can imitate other illnesses. He mentioned how Gerd can occur from a B1 deficiency and recommended that people take unfortified nutritional yeast since it is high in B1 and other B vitamins. I tried it and instantly felt better - my symptoms of Gerd completely went away a few minutes after eating it. He also recommended taking a form of B1 called Benfotiamine, and another doctor recommended another form of B1 known as TTFD. You can google this in YouTube and the videos should come up.
Re: Cat With Blocked Nasal Passages and Eyes - Upper Respiratory Infection
1 month agoIf you do have a vet, ask for a bag or two of saline (without a visit), and administer at home. Dehydration is her worst enemy right now. I have done it at home, you will probably need another person to help you hold her. But it's doable. That will give her more time while you are working on the rest of it.
With clearing eye gunk in kitties, I have had very good results from colloidal silver. Just rub it in full strength.
There is a great product called Snoot (amazon) that clears nasal passages really well. I have not tried it on cats, but it's not toxic in any way. Squirting in some diluted 3% peroxide could help too (cut it with water, half and half). Good luck with your furry friend!

1 month agoDid the charcoal work? Did you figure out what it was from? I got a rash starting on my thighs, over the course of 2 years spreading eventually all over my torso, but not all at the same time. Seemed to go in waves, not reappearing in any place it had been before. I still have some on my chest, I will try the charcoal. I think my rash was from a defective washer (brand new expensive Speed Queen) that did NOT clean our clothes.
Borax for Thrush Yeast Infection
1 month agoBORAX for THRUSH
From the book: Borax the Magic Crystal, p. 17,1915
Borax for the Nursery –
Every infant's mouth should be washed twice a day. Mouth with a piece of clean sterilized linen dipped in a solution of Borax in the proportion of one tablespoonful of Borax to a quart of water. The breath will be kept sweet and the gums perfectly healthy. This will prevent thrush.
Mouth and Throat Affections Such as Thrush –
To one ounce of honey add a teaspoonful of powdered Borax, and apply to the affected part frequently.
Sore Throat –
Add two even tablespoonfuls of granulated Boric to a pint of hot water, gargle the throat thoroughly with this solution three or four times a day, or allow a small crystal of Borax to dissolve slowly in the mouth three or four times each day ; this will tend to allay the irritation. Or to a pint of water add a teaspoonful each of salt and Boric, and use as a gargle two or three times a day.
NOTES:
Borax (i.e. Boric acid) was commonly used as a disinfectant for wounds and cuts before the modern antibiotic era 1940. Its ability to prevent infections made it a popular choice for treating minor injuries. People would sprinkle boric acid powder on wounds or boric acid salves 10% to promote healing and keep infections at bay.
Boric acid is still used as a natural remedy for fungal infections, particularly athlete's foot, toenail fungus, and yeast infections. Its antibacterial properties also make it effective in treating minor cuts and abrasions. Healthcare professionals widely recommend boric acid suppositories for women suffering from chronic yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis. The suppositories help restore the natural pH balance of the vagina, preventing the growth of harmful bacteria and fungi

Re: Treating Dysautonomia
1 month agoEveryone is in search of a magic pill. There is none. Symptoms vary considerably among dysautonomia patients. Some get better, some don't. Some get good days, some good hours. It is definitely not vitamin or minerals deficiency. I am living with it for 15 years. But I believe it all started in my teens after we moved thousands miles away from my birth city. A young body has reserves to continuously work on maintaining the balance, but the older you get the harder it is for your body. I have tried everything there is to try. Tests and scans etc. as well. Different healing modalities do help, but I am on a disability now and money is scarce. My theory on dysautonomia: 1. I am living in the wrong climate/place that evolutionary is not good for my haplotype. 2. It has a viral or fungal cause with which my body is unable to fight precisely because of the wrong environment. I can't return to the area where I was born. I also can't move to the areas which, at least theoretically, based on my birth data and genetics, should be good for my health. To simplify this, a cactus won't thrive in tundra and a polar bear won't survive in Africa. Trust me, I KNOW what I am talking about. As for the doctors they mostly recommend drinking lots of water. Been there done that. Atenolol is a life saver for me. Midodrine on the days when my BP just drops for no reason at all. As for the myriad of other symptoms there are no magic pills. Classic POTS diagnosis is made in a normotensive state. Hypo or hyper state is not reallyPOTS. I faint during TTT in a normotensive state with hr only 146. Cardiac catheterization discovered practically no blood in my heart and the pressure of 0-1 and that was after all day IV fluids. Still nobody is curious enough to figure this out.
Turpentine for Parasites
1 month agoI have heard about Georgia Gum Springs Turpentine and have used it several times in my life. I stopped using it for a while before all parasites were killed off and then the moles started showing v up all over my chest in less than 6 months. That is probably the aftermath. But now my chest has tons of moles. But. I have begun to taking again for an abscess and I've been using that and Chlorine Dioxide also.
These two: Diamond G and Chlorine Dioxide are a must in every household.
Re: Curaderm Getting in Deep for Skin Cancer Doc Missed
1 month agoI wonder how you made out with Curaderm as I had the same issue...it ate such a deep hole in my nose it ate right through....after a year of changing the bandage 3x a day I stopped as the hole was not showing any sign of closing up. It has been 8 months and the hole is not even half way closed. I would not use Curaderm again on my nose or face (It did work on my forehead and eyebrow) plus it is very expensive at $200 for 20ml tube. ACV and ACV soaked eggplant did not keep them from coming back. There is a weed common name Petty Spurge (latin Euphorbia peplus) that helps just as much as the ACV, ACV soaked eggplant and only need to dab on 2-3 X a day for 3 days and let it do its thing. The BBC even did an article about it.
Re: Rheumatoid Arthritis
1 month agoI swear by Borax for arthritis! In fact, if I go 3 or 4 days without putting a pinch in my water bottle every day, I can hardly use my hands! It is tasteless & odourless and dirt cheap. It is simply a salt mined from dried up salt lake beds. It's amazing how missing this one thing can mess a body up. At any rate, it is worth a shot! I will never go without it ever again. I hope you find relief.

Cat With Blocked Nasal Passages and Eye Gunk- Upper Respiratory Infection
1 month agoI need help for 10 year old female cat with severe upper respiratory infection that includes blocked nasal passages and eye gunk. She won't eat but still drinks and has white foamy vomit. She hasn't eaten for 5 days even with tuna water added to her wet cat food. She is fading fast.
I tried to get her to drink water with ACV with mother as suggested here, but no go. For three days I have applied the ACV 1/2 water/vinegar solution to her paws and her neck—twice a day.
Unfortunately, I am unable to take her to a vet. How can I get her nasal passages cleared? I have been washing her face with warm water using a face cloth to remove the eye gunk and around her nostrils several times a day. I don't have a bulb syringe to extract the nasal mucus but I don't think it would work well because the mucus is dry. This is the first time I have encountered this type of illness with a feline and I have had 7 kitties over the years.
Every day, I think will be her last as she sleeps most of the time, but wags her tail at the sound of my voice or touch. She still manages to get up and get to the litter box but tonight she was unable to get inside and emptied her bladder on the mat. My poor sweet girl. I'm worried that this illness has created more internal damage.
Any suggestions for what I can do to clear some of the nasal blockage and get her to eat are greatly appreciated.
Re: Scars on the Leg After Boils
1 month agoScars occur after infections. Instead of investing in any of those oils for scar reduction, simply use an oil you like on them eg. castor oil, almond oil, heck, even olive oil ( not corn or veg oil aka franken-oil) on the scars. Keeping the areas moisturized is key, as moisturization increases cellular turnover. I am 60 and find that my scars generally fade alot in about a year.
She also needs to alkanize in a serious way, boils are bad and will come back if she doesn't do this.
I also have to say that I am horrified, horrified, that Big Harma has even invented something that thins skin! That just sounds.....I don't even know!
