pH of Apple Cider Vinegar

Keith (FL) on 06/13/2024

Patricia, I just came across this comment that you thought ACV is alkaline. Nothing could be further from the truth. ACV is extremely acidic. All vinegar is acidic. Taking ACV is actually how you get rid of heartburn believe it or not. Taking antacids is how you prolong heartburn because antacids are alkaline. Stomachs need acid to digest food. The stronger the acid the better. I just wanted to clear that up.

Re: Need Help For Dog With Cyst on Eyelid

Wendy (OH) on 06/11/2024

Start mixing a 1/2 teaspoon of organic powdered turmeric and a 1/2 teaspoon of organic UNrefined virgin coconut oil into his food every time you feed him. Depending on your dog's size & weight, you might use slightly less or more of each of these. I did this with my Golden Retriever when a cyst on her hip developed from being pea-sized to the size of a 50-cent piece & was getting red and weepy due to a compromised immune system. Within TWO weeks the cyst was completely gone.

Coconut Oil for Cats

Pam E. (SW California) on 06/09/2024
5 out of 5 stars

I believe this! My cats get Coconut oil for several reasons:

More fuel for energy ... Hairball prevention & treatment ... Stomach ache from eating who knows what from who knows where - at these times it has so far always worked within an hour after they've ingested it - BUT - when they are in such pain that they won't eat or drink ANYthing (despite C.O. being a TOP favorite of theirs) I spread it (softened) on the fur of a front paw/lower-leg, and eventually they force themselves to lick it off ... and an hour later they go to their dinner bowl & ask to be fed, eating it alll up, with no more problems! I also used it topically & orally on a 2x2" infected skin wound. It initially loosened the dried puss covering it so the feral cat was able to remove it, then kept it clear of infection. It needed some help to heal back up, tho, & I found that 1 drop of GrapeFruit Seed Extract (1 part GFSE + 2 parts Glycerine, by Nutribiotics) 2x daily with meals is what it needed, and he healed up beautifully, all fur growing in perfectly!

It's everything it's cracked up to be by those who use & truly appreciate it! Don't listen to the nay-sayers! . The article on this site about it + many reviews *>

Re: Dog Sneezing From Allergies Causing Blood Loss - Seeking Remedies

Art (California) on 06/08/2024

Hi Hollyhock,

My dog had foxtails and fortunately the vet was experienced enough to know to look for them. He removed them and life was good for my dog again! They just work their way in and the part you would be able to see on the outside usually breaks off, so there is no apparent indication of a cause for the swelling.

Thank you, Hollyhock! I was going to write in with the same suggestion to check for foxtails. This was a well-known issue for dogs when I lived in CA.

Dog Sneezing From Allergies Causing Blood Loss - Seeking Remedies

Hollyhock (America ) on 06/08/2024

I would have him checked by a veterinarian for the dangerous "foxtail" seeds, they work their way in further and further causing so much pain!

Saw Palmetto Dosage for Dogs

skyshark (Tampa, FL) on 06/03/2024

After reading the available information, I would like to try saw palmetto on my dog, a 25lb/14yo Bichon Frise. My purpose in doing that would be to try to alleviate some frequency and lack of bladder control. Aside from the more well known use, treatment of benign prostate enlargement, it is apparently a good anti-inflammatory for the urinary tract (and more). What I don't know at this point is what is a safe dose to initiate with and how should I manage it from there. I welcome any constructive input and wisdom that is offered.

*I am learning. After posting this and waiting for a reply, I realized that the answer to my question was already available in the Pet Remedies section. Oh well, I'll continue living and learning. I'm still open to personal/anecdotal experiences and comments.

Colloidal Silver and Comfrey Salve for Hotspots

Meg (Kentucky) on 05/31/2024
5 out of 5 stars

I have a large German Shepherd grandpup that I hike with. When I picked her up she had a terrible hot spot. It had started to bleed. I put colloidal silver on it with a cotton pad for about 20 seconds, at the most. I let it dry and added comfrey salve. The next time I picked her up it was almost completely healed with hair growing back. I asked my grandson if anyone put anything else on it and he said no. So, one application of colloidal silver and comfrey salve did the trick.

Silver Sol Gel, Ivermectin for Cat With Mange

Seamore (Christiansted, VI) on 05/30/2024

I’ve successfully treated our cat with about 1inch of silver sol gel mixed with an ivermectin solution (1%) 0.1ml. Mixed in organic coconut oil 30 ml. Shaked up well and adding 7 drops to the silver sol gel and then just rubbing on the cat where they lick the most apply every day for month once a day if problem returns continue 1 X day for month and so on this will also help to prevent parasites, infections etc.

Lavender Oil for Hotspots

Coconut oil w/ Lavender for dog hotspots

Last week my beloved 7 year old Bichon suddenly developed a painful hot spot on his back haunch. I was very concerned as we had been through hot spot horrors before with our previous Bichon, Thisbe. I read testimony after testimony here on Earthclinic. First I tried the ACV diluted half and half with water. It did immediately seem to relieve the pain and itching. He stopped scratching himself. But after three days the sore was still weeping and actually hot. Also his entire backside was now the light brown colour of ACV...not a good look. I tried a saline and hypochlorous spray from Amazon. Again it did seem to help a little. But again the spot was still active and troubling. THEN I found the testimony by Tara of Baton Rouge. https://www.earthclinic.com/pets/hot_spots3.html#lavenderoil

She recommended 5-6 drops of Lavender essential oil added to 1 tbsp of coconut oil.I heated it and added a little bit of extra virgin olive oil to keep it liquid and mixed it, then applied it. Florrie was completely comfortable with it unlike the sprays I had been subjecting him to. It smells lovely. Within a few hours (!!!) the angry red patch was mostly pale pink with only a central small circle of bright red. It was no longer hot but cool to the touch. 24 hours later and the sore is gone. Only a bit of scab on pale pink skin is left!! He is happy and comfortable. I am so amazed and grateful to Tara and Earthclinic! to have found this easy, painless, FAST, zero side-effects resolution to an awful problem is just so wonderful. I wish everyone whose pet suffers with this problem would try this. It's the best solution ever.

Re: Chicken Bones and Dogs

Eloise (North Carolina) on 05/28/2024

I missed the exchange, but I would like to say that I have been giving chicken bones to my dogs all my life (I'm 85) and we have experienced no problems so far. The dogs are medium to large and the bones seem to be enthusiastically appreciated. I once had to dislodge a piece of bone (of some kind) from the joint of his jaw and I can easily recognize that he would be helpless to do that without me.

Pet Vaccines

Cindy (Illinois, USA) on 05/27/2024

I've been thinking about pet vaccinations - or, rather, ALL mandatory vaccinations - and I think it would be a good idea to make up a slippery elm, bone-char and hardwood charcoal gel with some freshly ground dried marshmallow root powder, put it in one of those travel tubes they have for shampoo and smoosh a nice big glob of that on the spot right after. Suck that s%#t right back out.

Re: Cat With Ulcer Under Lip

kathleen (North Carolina) on 05/25/2024

Hi Barbara,

It can be such a scary and powerless feeling trying something new to help our fur babies. I can tell you, without any hesitation, Colloidal Silver will not harm you, your cat or any other pets. It's the one thing helping my 13 yo dog poly arthritis, chronic inflammation, cysts, yeast.... I give it to her 3 times a day and put it in her water. I have been drinking it as it's the only thing that helps Lyme.

Many websites associated with conventional medicine (pharma company controlled) have. list of inexpensive, universal healing agents they attack. Colloidal silver is one, chlorine dioxide is another, iodine, boron, vitamin B 17 just to name a few. I would be surprised if you didnt find all you need to heal her here. Sending you both love.
