Oil Pulling and Cracked Heels
1 month agoI've been oil pulling on and off for about 6 months. I noticed when I quit doing it that my heels became quite rough with cracked flaky skin. I remembered reading here that it is beneficial for cracked heels, and that prompted me to start pulling again. I primarily use coconut oil, and can see improvement in less than 2 weeks. Cracked heels should be added to the list of things it addresses.

1 month agoBoth Ivermectin & Fenbendazole are safe for animals & people. Ivermectin first came available for animals ten humans. You are behind the 8 ball. Joe Tippens beat stage 4 cancer by taking Fenbendazole ( I'd advise cancer patients using chemo toxics for treatment loom Joe Tippen's. Thousands have now survived cancer because of FenBen. Both meds are very safe. Many peeps I know & me have been taking it since 2021 for you know what. I NEVER have been ill & still maintain a dose 1 time each month. So does my hubby & most of our family. It's effective & safe & beats the k*i_ s_ot pushed on the world that has caused sudden & permanent absence of souls.
Tea and Borax
1 month agoSince the Borax protocol gets rid of fluoride in the body, is it necessary to stop drinking tea since, I believe, it has a lot of fluoride in it. I'm hoping the answer is no and that the fluoride in tea reacts differently in our bodies than the fluoride in toothpastes and drinking water.

1 month agoRe: Severe Hand Eczema
1 month agoAbby, that helps a lot! I too have battled dyshidrosis, and know lots to pass on. I went from red broken skin, cracks so deep they bled, and insane itch (both hands and feet) to a place where I am 98% free of this, just require some very occasional maintenance.
Crucial step one: eliminate detergents from your handwash. Both Dove and Suave Essentials are detergents, not traditional soaps. Detergents were developed to disturb and penetrate oily surfaces while cleaning them. Great for clothes, bad for skin. Plus commercial soap-like detergents are loaded with other chemicals, colorings and perfumes. Ick. Switching to natural soaps will make a huge difference while your skin is healing. Best without scent. (I have also switched to plant-based free and clear detergents to wash clothes. And I never ever use fabric softeners, nasty stuff.)
Second, learn to knock out the itch. It will help the irritated skin heal. Stick your hand under the faucet, turn on hot water, and as it gets warmer, yank your hand away just at the point when it is getting too hot. The mast cells will release the itchy chemicals and you will get relief for several hours. Can be repeated.
Third, get a barrier ointment for hand care. I use Badger Baby Balm. But any simple ointment will do. Do not use creams, the water in them disturbs the skin barrier. Ok, this should get you on your way. Let me know how you are doing, and I will send more tried and true stuff your way. :-)
Re: Severe Hand Eczema
1 month agoSo in my post I did say "severe case of eczema", (doctor diagnosis "Dyshidrotic Eczema"), and that the doctor has me using Cortizone*10 (cream). When bathing I use dove soap, when washing my hands throughout the day at home it is usually Suave Essentials, with essential oils and moisturizers. When I am at work I do not know what they use in their soap dispensers. I am using Gold Bond Healing Hand Cream with aloe, 7 moisturizers, plus 3 vitamins for dry to extra dry skin. I hope this helps, sorry that I was not thorough enough.
Re: Detoxing From Fluoride
1 month agoEven if you started using RO ten years ago, that would have no bearing on the fluoride already stored in your body for decades. Fluoride won't leave the body unless you manually decalcify your body. It is a heavy metal that has alchemized into denser than bone calcium (a form of anyways) and it isn't going anywhere unless dissolved. Guess what dissolves it? Borax! But having said that, most people forget with any detox, you need a binder if it is too much calcification in your body. It reaches the brain, organs, bones, skin, gut, etc. So even if you stopped intaking fluoride in all forms, (toothpaste, water, deodorant, shower water, food, etc) you still need to reverse the damage from all the years you didn't do anything but consume it.
Re: Fenugreek and Thyme for Vertigo
1 month agoI'm not sure how this person used the Fennugreek and Thyme but I would assume it's the way tea is made with them. You can simmer Fennugreek seeds for a few minutes and add Thyme to this mix too to get a deep steep and then consume the tea. Fennugreek tea is good for clearing lymph.
Re: Severe Hand Eczema
1 month agoAby: It's hard to advise you since you don't give us your diagnosis. Is it dyshidrosis? Contact/irritant eczema? Something else? What did the doctor say? What else do you put on your hands? What kind of soap do you use? Is the cortisone a cream or an ointment? Steroids damage skin in the long run, so beware; use only sparingly.

Re: Apple Cider Vinegar for Basal Cell Carcinoma
1 month agoHi Liz, In my experience & knowledge, it is wise to consider some things when figuring a remedy.
Sleuthing health issues is like any other mystery—the better & more bits of data, the closer one can get to what it is, & what to do. It helps to know science about the body.
Many things can invade the body, but appear as something else—the closer to root causes, the better chosen a solution might be, & should work better.
CA's have been thot to be “bad growths”, which can be triggered by bad diet, chemical exposures, possibly genetics—except, Imho, science has failed to look deep enuf, & too often mistakes coincidence, correlation, & causation, & need to solve for way more & better questions when researching.
After many decades of education & experience, I no longer think those things “just grow”.
Also, despite a career in healthcare I can say, germs don't jump on us & attack—folks get sick from genetic weaknesses (that don't always have to happen), exposures to thousands of chemicals, & from poor nutritional repletion due to numerous causes, both genetic & manmade.
I have good reasons to think Ca's 1st commonly start with poor nutritional repletion, exposures AND parasites &/or fungal growths, & possibly biofilms (a composit of multiple organism + resistant mucus). Once those happen, body cells start growing badly.
We need to fix those, before those go catastrophic.
CAVEAT: it's probly a good idea to get properly diagnosed; just resist docs scaring anyone into draconian treatments instantly.
With Almost all Ca's, a person has at least enuf time to try some “simples”, like moist, hot compresses, &/or castor oil for a week or two, before committing to what docs push for cancers.
& also get 2nd opinions, & find docs you are comfortable with.
The body has amazing defences. But industries have made some big messes that are harder for our natural defences to cope with.
Nature grows many others—one needs to know how to use those properly. & industries have tried very hard for over 60 yrs I know of, to destroy those, too.
There are certain supplements that might help. But again, very important to have the proper ones, & know how they work in your biology. Social media is too often Not a good source, but can maybe show what to look up.
Moist Heat compresses are one way.
Anyone can try, free, in comfort of home, to see if that simple gradually reduces the problem. I've used a heating pad w/damp washcloth next to skin, to reverse inflamed breast, & as part of stopping BCC's on skin.
A hot pad is actually emitting non-visible infrared light—I also use a red/IR light wand that emits btwn 650 to 1000 Hz light wave frequencies.
For some reason, some of those frequencies disrupt cancer growths & infections. There is more research going on lately. The Hz (hertz) frequency, matters, to get those light waves deep enuf into tissues, & do the job.
AVOID using a light gadget on eyes;
BUT, it is safe to put a moist compress on eyes, & lay hot pad on low, over that, to keep the heat on the eyes longer….heating pads simulate a “fever” in a localized area, & add invisible infrared.
For eye infections, including common average pinkeye, or a sty along edge of eyelid for instance, a clean cloth wrung-out of hot water, applied as hot compress to eyes, a couple times daily, maybe for a few days or weeks, depending on how bad it is, usually makes those go away.
Some apply organic castor oil to a growth on eyelid…must keep doing it a couple times daily for some time.
Baking soda water (could be a tea from fresh rosemary), also inhibits sty growth, & is said to stop & reverse cancer growths.
ACV (real apple cider vinegar) also goes after those, but, it is acidic, & might be dangerously if it accidentally got into the eye.
Consider trying an anti-parasite/ antifungal/ antibiofilm, similar to Biocidin LF syrup. It's used orally, & can apply on skin; I think it is on-par with using certain medications that do that job but which now cost a whale of a lot more. I've used 1-pump in mouth daily, & also apply a drop directly to any skin “spots”. It might be safe on eyelid.
I recently tried a creme that contains allow inner leaf gel & other ingredients, which seems to be helping some starter plaque-like spots resolve.
Also, a good, organic, extra virgin olive oil has helped skin growths, wrinkles, dry/itchy skin—applied post shower, it feels relieving, & many of the wart-like & flat-plaques these skin spots started as, have gone away. Getting rid of those before they start turning ugly/dripping stuff, is best.
Raynaud's Disease in Hands
1 month agoI have Raynaud's Disease of the hands. My fingers turn deathly white, and they will stay like that for awhile, and with severe numbness, then they will start to turn red, and become very painful. If I am in the store and this happens I have difficulty paying my bill because I can't feel my money or card, whichever I am paying with. I haven't been able to find much on this disease, and I would be very grateful for help. Thanks so much!!
Severe Hand Eczema
1 month agoI have severe eczema on my hands. I work year round in greenhhouse enviroment. In the summer my hands are wet a lot from watering, also if I am wearing govels then my hands sweat and I end up with red, itchy, irritable hands. Last summer I ended up on an antibiotic to calm it down. This is the first winter I have ended up with a severe case of eczema, usually I have only gotten eczema in the summer. The doctor has me using Cortizone*10, however I am not finding it to be very helpful. Looking for wisdom.
Baking Soda and Coconut Oil for BCC
1 month agoOne day, many months ago, I noticed an ugly, crusty place, about 1/4", roundish, on the skin over my collarbone. I put coconut oil(co) on it, prayed for help, and ignored it. It got bigger and became annoying.
I use a baking soda (bs) paste for insect stings, so thought maybe a bs paste would work against and heal this thing. I was so happy to read some info from this site and also watch a YT video of a woman who used ba and co for her bcc.
It's not yet been a week. I clean the area with ACV and apply the paste 3-4x/day. Ive thought it strange that cleaning and then applying the paste does not hurt.
Im happy that it seems to be pulling disgusting stuff up over the surface of my skin. I see some tiny amounts of blood. The disgusting stuff is white. The area is circular, about 1/2"?
Id read that others had theirs frozen and such and they came back! So, Im very willing to be patient and ride this out.
The spot is tender and it itches or stings at times, but no big deal, really.
Im very thankful for this site.
Is there a time in the future that I should quit the treatment for a day and let the area rest?.. or just continually keep at it?
Ill figure out how to update this post, as well.
Thank you .
Re: Swedish Bitters
1 month agoRe: Arthritis Topical Treatment by Art Solbrig
1 month agoHi Deborah,
The recipe you are enquiring about is older and more complicated to make. More recently I had good results in a friend with arthritis in her hands using a very simplified recipe. This is the newer more simplified recipe for borax lotion for hands :
HOW TO MAKE BORAX LOTION
Materials :
- 3 Ounce Bottle
- 1/2 Teaspoon Borax
- 1.5 Ounces Of Hot Tap Water
- Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion
DIRECTIONS
Add the 1/2 teaspoon of borax to the empty 3 ounce bottle and then add the 1.5 ounces of hot water to the bottle. Replace the lid and shake very well until the borax is fully dissolved. Add the 1.5 ounces of Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion to the bottle and shake very well. The lotion is now ready for use.
The empty bottles I used are available at Walmart and seems ideal for this particular use because the bottle is actually about 3.25 ounces and that extra space allows room for shaking the material once the Cetaphil Lotion is added to the bottle.
Here is a link to the bottle I used :
Here is the link to my friends experience with this lotion for her hand arthritis :
