The bi-carbonate of soda (the common cooking soda, found in almost every kitchen) has been found an exceedingly valuable remedy in the treatment of burns and scalds, giving almost, if not absolutely, instantaneous relief from pain, as well as a cure for the wound, by continuing its use. Mode of Application—The injured part is to be moistened, then the dry soda, finely powdered, is to be sprinkled carefully upon it, to entirely cover the injury, and the whole wrapped with a wet cloth—linen is best. The relief is often instantaneous.
AnchorRemarks.—Harper's Weekly informs us that a Dr. Waters, of Salem, Mass., in speaking of the new remedy for burns and scalds, before the Massachusetts Dental Society, deliberately dipped a sponge into boiling water and squeezed it over his wrist, producing a severe scald around his arm some two inches wide, and continued the application, despite the suffering, for half a minute. Then he at once sprinkled on the bi-carbonate of soda, and applied the wet cloth, which almost instantly deadened the pain; and on the next day after this single application of the soda, the less injured parts were practically well, only a slight discoloration being perceptible, the severe portions being healed in a few days, by simply continuing the wet cloth bandage.

Going on a year with rat mite infestation in my home and always on my body even after cleaning really well. I use clean green, the cheaper version on Amazon, which I think is called, clean free naturally, on my laundry and vacuum and spray daily. I usually spray with alcohol mixed with some essential oil, but I also started using a mitacide with soinosad in it. It’s available on Amazon and is very expensive, but you do dilute it a lot so a little bottle goes a long way. I spray and mopping on the floors after vacuuming and I’ve started pouring it on my hair before shampooing and also on my body a bit. I know it does kill them because when I’m mopping with it sometime I can feel bites on me, I noticed that when I kill some on me, it makes the others react, so weird I know, but they seem to have a communication among them and it actually helps me know where they are when I’m cleaning, but also where they are on my body. Hope this helps. I do think this product works although I still have them, but it definitely kills them.

Has anyone had issues with terrible headaches with mono and like a dizzy feel? Not a room spinning kind of dizzy, but just enough to make you feel off? My headaches are mainly in the back of my head and near my ears. The doctor said I had fluid on my ears as well. Its been about 2 months now. I started feeling a lot better after about 5 weeks but I think I ran myself down again and started getting dizziness again and a little more fatigue.
I just found out about the natural remedies and I'm going to try some. I make colloidal silver so im trying that and going to try coconut oil and some more things.

Dr. Brandini*, of Florence, Italy, has recently discovered that citric acid will assuage (relieve) the violent pain of cancer. He applies to the part pledgets of lint soaked in a solution of citric acid, 4 grs** (0.00833 ounces = 0.2361515276 grams).; dissolved in soft water, 350 grs. (about ¾ oz.), with the result of affording instantaneous relief in the most aggravated cases.
**Historical British Apothecaries' system
*Dr. Brandini of Florence, Italy was a 19th-century medical practitioner who became widely known in the 1860s for discovering that citric acid and fresh lemon juice could significantly alleviate the severe pain associated with cancer. According to medical historical accounts, Dr. Brandini's discovery was accidental. Source: https://bnl.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/collection/BermudaNP02/id/3389/
The Tongue Cancer Patient: He was treating a 71-year-old male patient suffering from inoperable cancer of the tongue. To slake his severe, feverish thirst, the patient casually sucked on a fresh lemon. Unexpectedly, the application of the juice brought immediate and dramatic relief to his excruciating pain.

The Breast Cancer Patient: In another well-documented case involving an advanced, ulcerated breast cancer patient, the woman's severe torments kept the entire ward awake. “Applying lint soaked in the solution, relief was instantaneous. Repeated, it was successful.” -- [Bartram's Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine 1633 A.D. PDF.]
His clinical finding spread globally and was regularly cited in prominent 19th-century medical compendiums, home remedy guides, and historical newspapers as a breakthrough in palliative care.

What is your protocol for deworming?
thank you.

I have experienced halitosis on and off for the last several years. The really bad kind, the kind I've heard called "dad breath", the kind that some of my customers when I was in customer service when young had, that made me wish to run or hide because I really didn't want to breathe while talking to them. But I'm in my 50's now and occasionally have the same thing, and I know just how bad it is. I cured it very, very slowly by taking vitamin a in extra amounts whenever I noticed that my tooth brush stank. But I've found a free and safer alternative. I read somewhere that parasites, especially worms, often cause it when they live in your tissues especially and defecate in the bloodstream. I've been using this free method of healing from https://www.saisanjeevini.org/
I know it's supposed to be 'prayer based', but I have used it for three decades without praying, so I just puta clear (transparent) glass with a tiny bit of water in it onto a sanjeevini diagram for fifteen seconds and then drink the water. So it's worked for years, but I had never heard of the parasite connection. But now since I had, I tried DS 142 Worms and parasites. Now my breath is fine and as a beneficial side effect, I don't have any cold sores any more either, and I can stop the lysine for my cold sores too, although I still need to take it with oatmeal, which is not a whole protein because it is lysine deficient, to avoid cold sore breakouts.
So I just need to have that one diagram and put water on it once a day, and I'm safe!
