Art\'s Melatonin Lotion

Art (California) on 07/19/2026

Hi EB, I'm glad to hear that the melatonin lotion has helped her with the pain and stiffness in her legs! I hope it helps her sleep better also as it can have that effect in some people. I hope it also helps your sister's grandson's arthritis. Please let us know if it helps him too! There are at least 4 forms of arthritis that can affect an 18 year old, so could you also let us know which form he has been diagnosed with? Art

Art's Melatonin Lotion

Art (California) on 07/18/2026

Yes, EB, that is what I seem to remember, but I don't remember if it was the cream or the lotion. I imagine it would be easier to mix the lotion since lotions are usually thinner than creams.

Art's Melatonin Lotion

EB (England) on 07/18/2026

I dont know what type of arthritis, she just says she has pain in the night and her legs are really stiff so I made her the lotion. She really thinks its helping so now my sister asked me for some lotion for her 18 year old grandson who seems to have painful arthritis. I made her some, we will see if it helps. I know that is really young but he is in a lot of pain.

Topical Turmeric for Boils

Mike (Kent, UK) on 07/18/2026
5 out of 5 stars

Topical turmeric for boils

It works SO WELL. I can't get it to work internally though for this. I dunno. I still seemed to get them even when I was taking it orally. I'll see the doctor about why they come up here and there.

But anyway, truly, if you mix some turmeric powder into some glycerin (vegetable glycerin is what I use) and then put it on the boil and leave it for something like 90-120 minutes... that seems to be it. Dead.

Of course you can spread out the treatment if you want but I tend to do it in one hit like that because it's quicker. One and done! Lol

But yeah I hope this helps someone :)

Re: DMSO for Ticks

that's what I imediately thought. IF it is infected with Lymes, than you will be also. Pulling the tick gives you at least a chance not to take in the Lymes

Main Molar Root Infection and Biofilm

Nigel (UK.) on 07/18/2026

Hello.

Please could you let me know if Garlic, Ginger and Onion will get rid of Biofilm that might be in the blood supply from my heart to one of my main molar teeth.

I had a main molar tooth root filled 21 years ago that has gone black and the gum had come away from this tooth. I think that bad bacteria from this tooth is entering the blood supply to this tooth which also goes to my heart. I understand that this bad bacteria can be coverd with Biofilm to protect it.

I had tests done by the NHS which show I have an inflamatory marker which could be because of this tooth. This pain has got worse over the last few weeks which is worrying me a lot. I plan to get it taken out but first I want to try and get rid of this biofilm and bad bacteria first.

Thank you from
Mr N Ball.

Re: Salted Butter Stopped Thrush!

lucas (london) on 07/18/2026

Hi,

Did you try unsalted butter?

I am wondering if it is the salt or the butter doing the 'magic' or both must be combined?

Thank you

Re: Bentonite for Internal Cleansing

Hi

I read on the kidney disease post that bentonite clay clogs up the kidneys here’s he said. Anyone else heard of this as I use clay

by Nursecaitlin (Boston, Massachusetts Usa) on 10/23/2012

WARNING!

I've worked with dialysis patients for years and bentonite clay has come up many times. It destroys your kidneys over a few years. The clay sticks to the inside of your nephrons. As the kidney disease advances (slowly) the nephrologist will ask you to allow them to perform a kidney biopsy, it is at this time that it is discovered that clay, acual clay, is stuck inside the millions of tiny nephrons in each kidney. Although you may see positive results, kidney disease, and evenually dialysis, is the end result.

Re: CKD Questions for Art

Art (California) on 07/17/2026

Hi veronica,

You didn't say which of the suggestions from the original post you have already tried, and that would matter. The vitamin D you should be tested for and if you are insufficient or deficient, that should be at the top of your list.

Next would be melatonin. Natrol brand melatonin is generally considered a good brand and iHerb does carry it. If you know you tolerate oral melatonin very well, you can consider using the 10 mg dose. If you have never tried oral melatonin before and don't know how well you tolerate it, consider the 3 mg dose. You can take these in the early evening or shortly before bedtime if you are trying to promote sleep. With the 3 mg dose you can always add a pill or two if you tolerate it well. With the 10 mg dose you are kind of stuck if you have low tolerance for melatonin. You should also talk to your doctor about the baking soda and magnesium. Omega 3 fatty acids are also helpful, such as fish oil. Fruits and vegetables should also be high on your list.

Ubiquinol is also worth discussing with your doctor.

Since gut dysbiosis is very prevalent in kidney disease, Inulin/FOS prebiotic fiber can be useful to try to slowly repair and rebalance the gut microbiome. Start with a few grams and slowly work your way up to allow your body and gastrointestinal system to slowly adjust to the inulin/FOS.

All of the above should be cleared with your doctor to make sure they will be compatible with any medications you are taking and to make sure they will be safe for you.

Hi Art,

Thank you for your information on this page it’s so helpful to many I’ve been dipping in it for many years.
I have just had blood results showing that my creatinine is 141 and by eGFR is 34 so a cause for concern I am post meno.

I have no health issues all other results were fine so I am at a loss as to what I should take for this new problem.

I saw your post on taking Melatonin which is hard to get in the U.K. can you recommend a brand I could take and I could try on iHerb.
Are there any updates on your research for CKD? Thank you again for posting it for the benefit of other so appreciated.

Salted Butter for Thrush

Legiten (Colorado) on 07/16/2026
5 out of 5 stars

Saw the post about Salted Butter and thought, what the Heck why not.

Back story, I have been having several bouts of Alkalosis lately, Related to my Adrenals, Having Spouts of deep breathing, Joint pain and weakness; I realized it was Hypocapnia, or High Bicarbonate or Excess CO2. I thought It was Diabetic Ketoacidosis Causeing thess attacks, but no matter how much BS treatments Id take, it wouldn't go away. Well I guess it was the opposite, Alkalosis, my PH was too high causeing Similar Metabolic and respiration issues. It got so bad, I developed Thrush, as Candida Thrive in an Alkali Environment.

Did the regular BS / Lemon juice Rinses to try and get rid of it. But the BS was making it worse. It would recede for a an hour or 2, then come back twice as hard. I had done so much BS, that I was getting Herx from the Candida die off. And when Candida dies off, it will produce even more CO2. I was in a cycle of Constant Alkalosis. I figured out I needed to stop the BS. So took some other supplements.

I took Zinc, Mag Potassium, and L-Lysine. It was helping a bit, but my mouth was so Thrush filled, It was getting sores, and everything hurt of eat or Drink. Looking here I saw the Milk of Magnesisa, but didnt know if id last another 2 weeks while that reversed.

Back to Top, saw the Salted Butter, and Had some Kerrys Irish salted butter, thinking, God let this work, or ill die from the pain.

Holy Moly! Instant Relief! I put some in Swished it around and spit it out. Then did 2 more times for the sake of thuroughness. Then swallowed a small bit to see if it help my throat and stomach.

Wow! Why this hasnt been tried and tested before is beyond me. Its the easiest, fastest and most effective thing ive ever done for Thrush. It needs to be number one on the list here.

Re: Borax for Energy

Art (California) on 07/16/2026

Hi again, Steve,

If the tiny amount of borax is keeping you up at night, that is not good and you should probably only use a sip or two first thing in the morning when you want to boost your energy level during the day. Unfortunately that will not likely supply enough boron to help with the arthritis.

So you can give consideration to a boron based supplement, but 6 mg of a boron based supplement offered me zero relief for my arthritis so I would have had to take a higher dose of a boron based supplement, so I just went with borax which changed my life.

Art's Melatonin Lotion

Art (California) on 07/16/2026

Hi EB,

Thank you very much for the feedback! Do you happen to know the type of arthritis that your mum has?

As far as useable lotion, any water based lotion should work. If you have Jergens Lotion there, it will definitely work.

You can get the melatonin powder in the UK at this website :

https://rawpowders.co.uk/melatonin-powder

The link sometimes loads very slowly, but it does load.

I recommended this website to a person in the UK so they could make melatonin lotion and they told me they would recommend that website. They also told me they used a lotion which I only remember had the number "45" as part of the name of the lotion. Does that make any sense to you? They said it worked fine.

Re: Borax for Energy

Steve (LA) on 07/16/2026

ok that makes sense however I’m confused because when I take a boron supplement like a 6 mg boron complex I do not feel anything whatsoever. Why do you think it is that I feel the Borax (sodium borate) only? I mean a tiny pinch in 1 liter of water and taking tiny sips throughout the day (5-6 times) would mean I’m only taking in boron in the microgram level, not even milligrams. That is to say if Borax is approx 11% boron and I’m only using a tiny pinch diluted in 1 liter of water. Could Sodium Borate / Borax contain some other element or chemical from the industrialized process of mining it from the earth? I was looking to see if I could see anything on 20 mules website. Anyone else have this energetic experience with Borax please chime in I can’t be the only one.

Iodine for Cherry Angiomas

RB (Somewhere in Europe) on 07/16/2026
1 out of 5 stars

I've got 14 medium-sized Cherry Angiomas. My father had them on his torso, and I have them on my torso. He couldn't get rid of them, and I can't get rid of them. Some say Cherry Angiomas generally respond favorably to home remedies, including Iodine. Therefore my latest attempt was the use of Iodine. I put myself on Iodine; 150 mg per day, every day, in the last 12 months, in the form of a 5% Lugol's Solution. Was the Iodine any help? No, no help at all. Guys, learn from my experience! Iodine is not the right remedy, if you're trying to get rid of your Cherry Angiomas.
I hope this will help somebody!
