Re: Borax for Arthritis

Gracie (UK) on 12/09/2025

I totally agree with you, mixing the borax in water, storing it in the fridge is yet another chore. Quite a few years ago I did this, then stopped and began taking one small capsule of boron (3 mg) a day, until very recently. I've suffered with pain in my hips and lower back for some time, and it is worsening, and did think the boron is not working. However, I've had an MRI scan done, and they did not discover any arthritis, so the boron must have protected me, and I'm back on the 3mg boron a day. I wish I could discover what is causing the pain in my lower back and thighs though.

Re: Borax for Arthritis

I'm sorry, but mixing it up in a jug of water, storing it in the fridge and sipping on thru the day sounds like yet another chore, and not very portable. It's fine to consume over an hour or two.. I simply take a small pinch(approx 1/8 tsp and mix it in my water bottle in the morning, give it a shake, shake, shake, and then consume this one bottle over the next couple of hours and it's done for the day. If I miss more than 2 or maybe 3 days, my arthritis symptoms come right back! I do not miss very often. I do Ted's recommendation and use for 6 days on and 1 day off.

For a small Yorkie, I would use 1/8 tsp in his water bowl every morning. I bet it will really help your dog.

Re: Ivermectin for Mange

Lori-Lynn (Windsor, Ontario) on 12/09/2025

Ivermectin is most assuredly 'not' toxic. It is on the W.H.O. List of Essential Medicines and won a Nobel Prize for the inventors. I am surprised that someone from Mexico posted this as your own Government included Ivermectin in their covid kits given to its citizens.

Re: Aloe Vera Juice for CRF in Pets

Regular Aloe Juice is toxic for cats. George's Aloe Vera Water is fractionally distilled to remove the toxic aloin/latex making it safe for digestive support, inflammation and immunity.

George's distilled Aloe Vera is like water and it taste like water. My cat ate some lilies and his kidneys are shot. He is having trouble urinating. I am using Georges 3ml twice a day and it has helped him a lot. I will probably have to give it to him for the rest of his life. I also give him HomeoPet Feline Kidney Rescue - 5 drops in his food twice a day.

I applied the 50/50 apple cider and water mix to my kitten's shoulder blades for three days, 3x a day, and her eyes cleared up and look normal again. No more extended third eye, and no more mucus.I am thrilled that this worked.

Bleeding Fibroid Dog - Seeking Remedies

Alex (Serbia) on 11/30/2025

Cayenne pepper for healing bleeding wounds, I have read that people use it to stop bleeding, when I research it says it can cause irritation, inflammation, more bleeding, etc. My dog has a fibroid from surgery that bleeds easily, I want to treat it with something that stops the bleeding but I need to be sure it doesn’t cause complications. I hava dmso, silver, comfrey, iodine(skki), aloe vera juice, both topical and internal things that someone has knowledge on that benefit, please share. Thank you.

To clarify for other readers: not pumpkin for pies. I wish it could be listed differently as I had to search out which pumpkin once as well.

Colloidal silver, Dosage for 1-2 pound puppies

Mama to Many (TN) on 11/29/2025

Dear Juli,

You really can't overdose with colloidal silver and dogs in my experience. For a 1 - 2 pound puppy I would try the 1/2 dropperful twice a day. It can be mixed with food if that is easier. Depending on what you are treating you may want to do this for 10 days.

Colloidal silver, Dosage for 1-2 pound puppies

Juli (Georgetown, KY USA) on 11/26/2025

I forgot to ask in my previous question on this topic, but it only says "small dogs". Can you give more specific, say for 1-2 pound puppies?

This is the excerpt:

"Give your puppy 1 dropperful 4 times a day. Large puppies can take 2 droppersful per dose. Tiny puppies can take just ½ a dropperful per dose."

Give your puppy 1 dropperful 4 times a day. Large puppies can take 2 droppersful per dose. Tiny puppies can take just ½ a dropperful per dose."

Re: Ivermectin for Mange

Vera (Colorado) on 11/27/2025

Why, Marcela? To be purist? Some mainstream drugs do work well. I live on the edge of wilderness, and two foxes at two different times have come to my door seeking help with mange. Horrible itching, loss of fur in the winter.... So I gave them ivermectin in a donut or a hard boiled egg. It worked. It's a blessing in such a case where topical treatments are not possible.

Re: Ivermectin for Mange

Marcela (Mexico) on 11/26/2025

Please do not recommend chemicals or pharmaceuticals that are toxic to dogs and humans. It's time to stop promoting ivermectin. The remedy using borax and peroxide is effective. Additionally, it should be noted that this is a topical remedy. It's also important to provide dogs with a rich and nutritious raw diet, a stress-free environment, and plenty of opportunities for play and exercise.

Do you have to clean his skin first with alcohol? Or do you just apply it?

Look for The Borax Protocol on the Internet. It will give you the correct information.

Re: Apple Cider Vinegar for Cats

Lisa (CA) on 11/14/2025

Hi CJ. I was just at the vet yesterday and my cat has a sensitive stomach. She suggested Purina Pro plan canned food to try for a while. He has been on Friskies for the last year and is getting tired of it anyway. Hills is always recommended by vets as they can sell it make money on it. I read long ago it's terrible food.

Re: Change to Incandescent Bulbs for Dogs With Seizures

Ray E (TN) on 11/12/2025

Make sure to switch all LED Lights in the house to incandescent bulbs. Amazon sells them. Alot of them flicker even though we cannot see them. There's a Facebook group that can also help assist "Dog Seizures Help". A raw food diet is best. Stay away from any brands that use rosemary (including ground chicken and ground turkey that uses it as it's a trigger for seizures).

20 PPM was the strength of the solution we used. One of our miracle-recoveries even has a new fur-ever home and she is so happy now & plays with her family's kids all day long.

Re: Trying to Locate Best Essiac Tea for Bladder Tumor in Dog

Kate (Raleigh, NC) on 11/04/2025

If you or another can share the use of Frankincense. Most Essential oils have to be diluted, so dilute it and then apply topically?

Also, Boswellia is Frankincense and can be taken internally. It’s beneficial for pain and perhaps more?
