Re: Chronic Sphenoid Sinusitis Inflammation - Remedies Needed
1 month agoExplore using a trace of thyme essential oil in a nebulizer and or hydrogen peroxide. Take a sterile solution for nebulizers (usually sold in 5ml plastic vials) and introduce a trace ( 1 drop is too much) of the medicinal quality thyme EO. Distilled or purified boiled water is also fine. Thyme EO has the highest antibacterial, anti fungal, antiviral properties. Since it is impossible without a biopsy to determine the cause of your sphenoid sinus opacification I don't think it will hurt to try. The mist will reach the brain and all sinus cavities.
Re: Melatonin and Borax Questions for Art
1 month agoHi Anna Girl,
No problem with 3x a day if it does not make you feel tired. Some people are sensitive to melatonin and it can make them feel tired during the day. I have a high tolerance for melatonin and don't get tired.
A quarter level full teaspoon is correct. Some friends have reported that it takes more vodka than gin to fully dissolve the melatonin powder.
Please keep us posted on your progress.

Borax for Pets and Easier oOral Dosing for People?
1 month agoBorax for Pets and Easier oOral Dosing for People?
Trying to give a litre of water to a pet is difficult! Sipping a litre throughout the day and being consistent for a human is difficult. So I figured... greater concentration in the litre bottle combined with less frequent but greater 'sips' might work.
Starting with Walter Last's 1 teaspoon Borax in a litre of (distilled) water, of which we know that 1 teaspoon gives 3 mg Boron.
Therefore 18 teaspoons would give you 56mg Boron.
Divide this 18 teaspoons into 6 teaspoons 3 times a day. (Giving 18.66mg Boron per dose) (Also the litre doesn't have to be made up every day)
This would be manageable to give to a dog or for a female human (double the dose for a male). (4 or 5 days a week?)
Can anyone see a problem with this, please? Or has anyone tried this way? I understand it's horses for courses (pardon the pun) but topical application with DMSO is difficult on a very hairy dog!
Re: Melatonin and Borax Questions for Art
1 month agoArt...you have been wonderful! I really appreciate your advice. I'm beginning to get the hang of it as far as focusing on the borax drink and melatonin lotion. Staying with these two things is good counsel.
You asked whether I made a weaker lotion. I used the recipe that you gave for melatonin lotion:
-
- Take your four-ounce jar and add one level full one-quarter measuring teaspoon of melatonin powder into the jar.
- Add one ounce of gin to the melatonin in the jar. Replace the lid and shake well until the gin looks clear again.
- Add 2 ounces of Cetaphil lotion to the jar. Replace the lid and shake until well-mixed.
I used vodka instead of the gin because I had organic vodka on hand.
I used the link provided for the melatonin powder which is Bulk Supplements 3 mg. Are you suggesting that I increase the powder in my mixture?
Today I am going to use the lotion 3x to see how that works and continue to drink the borax mixture with 1/8 t of Borax.
Thank you again for your help!
Walter Last's Borax Protocol
1 month agoHi sixwolves,
In my opinion, Walter Last's borax protocol is too weak to work for the majority of people whereas Ted's borax protocol is likely to be more effective for most people. from my personal experience I know that Walter's remedy would not have worked for me, but Ted's remedy has kept my PA in remission for 17 pain free years.
Here is a link to EC's Borax page which describes Ted's Borax remedy :

1 month agoJustine, if you have been Dx with breast cancer you have to ask how aggressive the tumor is and ask to see the pathology report, that tells all. A very aggressive tumor should be a combination of mainstream medicine aka radiation/chemo/and surgery, and alternative medicine. Never second guess cancer, it's a killer. Good luck to you and anyone else diagnosed with breast cancer or any cancer.
Re: CT Scan Question
1 month agoMelatonin and Borax Questions for Art
1 month agoHi Anna Girl,
I am a fan of trying one item at a time because if you start everything at once and have a negative reaction, you will have to stop everything and start over with one item anyway, to try and determine which one caused the negative reaction.
The melatonin lotion was a good place to start. OA severity could be why you are only able to get 50% relief at this time. Did you make a weaker ML? If the ML doesn't make you tired you can go three times per day such as morning, afternoon and bedtime. It has healing qualities in OA and should work well in conjunction with borax. From feedback from friends who have tested ML, they have reported that the apparent benefit seemed to increase for the first one to two weeks. So watch for that angle.
If you want to test DMSO, then test DMSO, but don't do it if you are using melatonin lotion, it should be one or the other. DMSO can carry other molecules into your system and lotions have too many chemicals that you probably don't want to go systemic. For me, DMSO never offered any pain relief over multiple testing periods, but others swear by it. I have only used DMSO when I wanted to try and improve the transdermal penetration of another single molecule, but I have only done that for my personal testing and have not recommended it on EC. One possibility is that you try ML on one knee and DMSO on the other knee. I don't know if people experience any healing from DMSO when used for OA. I have always understood that you would have to use it for the rest of your life in order to maintain the pain relief, but I could be mistaken on that point.
With Borax, my opinion is that people usually start to see benefit within the first month, but again, if the OA is severe, maybe it takes more time.
As always, you need your doctor's approval and supervision when using these types of remedies. I am not a doctor.

Melatonin and Borax Questions for Art
1 month agoHi Art! I have been drinking the borax solution for 5 days...2 days off. I'm beginning my 5-day rotation today. Too early to tell. However, the melatonin lotion gives almost a 50% relief in pain and stiffness immediately. I'm using it 2x a day..once in the morning and at bedtime. However, this does not last all day. I'm assuming that because I have deteriorated knee cartilage and that this will all take some time. There are 3 suggestions for OA help that I have found on this site that I find interesting. 1) drinking borax water 2) borax solution rubbed on the affected area followed by DMSO. 3) Melatonin lotion. My question is if I should be doing all 3. If so, how do I incorporate #2 and #3? Again, thanks for your help.
Re: Hearing Loss After Cold
1 month agoBorax Dosage for Dogs and Cats
2 months agoBorax 'all in one go' dosing for pets
People speak of adding 'a pinch' of borax to their pet's food and the dosage from Ted is 1/8 or 1/4 teaspoon added to a litre of water. Given that a dog or cat might drink a bowl full of water or half or whatever, is it OK for them to drink the whole (or half) daily dose in one sitting? (This is very different to a human sipping throughout the day or taking 3mg twice a day)

Garlic for Tooth Abscess
2 months ago@ Red
The ancient Assyrians (21st century BC to the 14th century BC) mentioned garlic as a food and medicine many times. They used garlic to treat dental problems, including rotten teeth, by applying it as an antibiotic and packing it in cavities.
Pliny the Elder (AD 23/24–79) wrote in his book The Natural History: Beaten up, and taken in vinegar and water, it is very useful as a gargle for quinsy. Three heads of garlic, beaten up in vinegar, give relief in toothache: and a similar result is obtained by rinsing the mouth with a decoction of garlic, and inserting pieces of it in the hollow teeth.
Dioscorides, who lived in the first century AD. He was a Greek, and chief physician to the Roman armies in Asia Minor. His Materia Medica gives the following account of garlic's virtues and vices. He continued the practice of packing garlic into rotting cavities.
The use of garlic for dental health is supported by its antibacterial and antifungal properties. Garlic contains compounds like allicin, which can help combat oral bacteria and reduce plaque formation. Studies have also shown that aged garlic extract can be beneficial for treating periodontitis (gum disease).
Garlic, can be effective at preventing tooth decay. Garlic with lime was compared to chlorhexidine (antiseptic), sodium fluoride (remineralization), fluoride with essential oils (remineralization and antiseptic), and alum (antiseptic) for their abilities to destroy cavity-causing bacteria. After chlorhexidine, garlic with lime was found to be the most effective mouth rinse to destroy unwanted bacteria and protect the teeth from decay. Garlic is even effective on multidrug-resistant strains of Streptococcus mutans that contribute to cavities. In ninety-two isolates of this bacteria from carious teeth, 30% percent were resistant to four or more antibiotics. None of them were resistant to garlic. Using garlic as an ingredient in mouthwashes or toothpastes could help reduce the incidence of cavities.
