Re: Charcoal Absorbs All Medications

It attracts it electrostatically so that what it attracts becomes attached to it ... not aBsorbed by it.
There was a study done on sheep for 6 months ... they were fed 5% Activated Charcoal in their food... .
At the end of the study the sheep were tested & found to have NO nutritional deficiencies... .

Melatonin For Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) In Humans
4 days agoMelatonin For Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) In Humans
This newer study suggests that melatonin significantly decreases the risk of getting AMD while in existing cases melatonin had a negative impact on disease progression as discussed here :
Here are two relevant quotes from the large cohort study :
; Melatonin use was associated with a decreased risk of development and progression of AMD. '
; Among patients aged 50 years or older, those in the melatonin cohort had a reduced risk of receiving an AMD diagnosis compared with the control cohort (RR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.28-0.62). The analysis of the older subsets of patients revealed similar findings (aged ≥60 years: RR, 0.36 [95% CI, 0.25-0.54]; aged ≥70 years old: RR, 0.35 [95% CI, 0.23-0.53]). Such associations persisted even when patients were monitored for AMD development at least 2 years after the index event (aged ≥50 years: RR, 0.22 [95% CI, 0.12-0.39]; aged ≥60 years: RR, 0.40 [95% CI, 0.19-0.83]; aged ≥70 years: RR, 0.22 [95% CI, 0.12-0.43]). Likewise, our sensitivity analyses revealed consistent results with that of the primary analysis (eTables 6-8 in Supplement 1). The negative control outcome analysis showed that melatonin treatment was not associated with the risk of head injuries (eTable 9 in Supplement 1). '
The list of health benefits associated with melatonin use continues to grow significantly!

4 days agoRe: Iodine for Skin Tags
4 days agoLugals solution will burn your skin if you don't let it air out.
I was painting my knee with it to try to resolve a spur and I thought I'd baste it, cover it in plastic so lugals didn't evaporate it would work better. It gave me a chemical burn, easy does it .
Also, citric acid will clear the iodine stain, so if you have to go somewhere, you just put a little in some water and wipe it easily. Unsweetened Kool aid has citric acid.
Once I stained my new sheets with lugals so I mixed unsweetened kool aid with water and iodine stain went away but left red stain which dawn dish soap cleared, so now I use lemon Kool aid and just a regular laundry washed the yellow dye away .

4 days agoI have read that castor oil applied to the eyelids at night over a number of weeks can help you get rid of macular edema, as it draws impurities from the eyes. The person who mentioned this remedy said she had also been using an eye mask on top of her eyes at night, to create the effect of a castor oil pack over the eyes. I hope this helps.

5 days agoGiant Cell Arteritis - Remedies Needed (New Ailments Page Created)
6 days agoHi Hollyhock,
In Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) and the resulting Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) elevated IL-6 (inflammatory cytokines), Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) inflammatory levels are a definite issue so looking for supplements that lower IL-6, ESR and CRP is important.
Although melatonin is an IL-6 and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) inhibitor, it may not be a good choice for these two health issues when combined with the standard corticosteroid therapy. Several known IL-6, ESR and CRP inhibitors are :
1. NAC @ 1200 mg/day total in two divided doses of 600 mg at breakfast and 600 mg at dinner
2. Curcumin @ at least 1000 mg/day
3. Omega 3s such as Fish Oil at 3 grams total per day
4. Astaxanthin @ 24 mg/day with a meal
5. Vitamin D to get well into the reference range for 25 OH d level of 30 ~ 100 ng/ml
The above mentioned dosing is based on studies for other health issues in humans than the two that are named.
Due to different methods of action among this group, there is also potential for synergy, which could be useful.
Due to the serious nature of the two named health issues, you will need to get your doctors approval and supervision in order to use the mentioned supplements.
