HI,
I had a terrible case of A. Lymphedma in my legs and B. Ringworm there as well.
Cured both.
Here's how:
Lymphedema: got this during my pregnancy and continued for almost 2 years thereafter.
I believe from Adrenal and kidney depletion...pregnancy is hard on the glands...adrenals control fluids in the body...so do kidneys.
Anyway..tried everything: Lymphatic drainage massage MLD, acupuncture, herbs, compression stockings, you name it.
Here's what worked: a. Wheatgrass juice daily and fresh celery and spirulina and parsley juice.
b. Epsom salt baths (1/2 pound in the hot water with some bubble bath ,,,natural of course). Soaked 20 minutes a night before bed.
c. trampoline work.
Guess what? I'm cured...the massage therapist said I'd never cure it...that there is no cure. Oh yeah?
I sure hated those compression stockings. UGLY!
Now for the ringworm: AGAIN! Tried everything!!! Spent lots of money on creams, etc. tried herbs, etc. NOTHING! WORKED! The itching was driving me crazy ...plus ugly oozing sores on my legs. In desperation I tried: YES! Calamine lotion. IT WORKS FOLKS!
In a few hours I found relief and now it's gone. Try it. The lotion cost me $1.99
Haha!
Best of luck.

How can I get the specifics on how to mix the kokila cure for lymphedema? Should I use fresh, frozed or powdered wheatgrass? Is it possible to use the pill forms and get the same results?

Hi Folks, Just stopped by here and saw ALL the posts regarding my treatment for Lymphedema! Sorry I didn't know sooner, as I would have immediately posted.
What has amazingly helped are the juices. Especially the celery, wheatgrass, parsley, spirulina juice... I also add red desert clay powder.
Also there is herb: fennugreek that is good.
Red clover has helped me too.
I take the juice once a day these days in an 8oz glass. I make it fresh once a week in a 20AMP blender which maintains the integrity of the enzymes! Very important. Don't use a regular blender.
The trampoline I do every night, as that is when I notice there might be a slight swelling.
What has REALLY helped recently as well is: Light Life Rings by Slim Spurling. I distribute them now as I'm a believer! I sleep with them around my leg and upper body, and I really see it keeps the swelling away beautifully. Something about the sacred geometry of the copper rings really helps the cells/energy of my leg. I use the large rings.
Hope this all helps you my friends. I know it is a terrible condition...

I also want to mention that I use powdered, freeze dried wheatgrass.
Also what helps emormously is bio-identical hormones (thyroid and adrenal)
I've noticed that I can pretty much say the swelling is gone, only slightly at night at this point, and improving even more.

Lymphedema:
My recipe for the juice is as follows:
- 1bunch celery
- 1bunch parsley, flat
- 2 Tbls freeze dried wheatgrass
- 3 teas. spirulina
- scoop of red desert clay powder
Mix in 20 amp blender or juicer, and strain through nut milk bag.
Use within 1 week, and drink 2 cups a day.
Good Luck!

Kokila, exactly how much do you consider 1 bunch of celery and parsley, I made it with a stalk of celery and it only made about 10 oz.

Hi Kokila, Hope you are still checking this site. My mom is trying to use your recipe and is having difficulty getting enough juice out of it and it is very thick, any suggestions? She is suffering badly with swelling below the knee and is desperate for something that works.

Hi Folks, Stopped by here and wanted to answer the lymphedema question about the juice.
Add enough water to almost fill the blender after cutting up the celery, parsley and wheatgrass powder(or fresh grass: I use the grass too, but sparingly as it can damage the blender).
Then drink right away.... A couple of glasses a day!
Good luck

About how long did it take you to get cured. I've had this condition for about 7 years now. Even moderate relief would be fantastic. My legs are sooooo swollen and oozing from just above my ankles to half way up my calves. Now I'm having trouble walking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ann, diuretics (like celery juice) don't really cure edema. They can help but it sounds like your problem is chronic. I have had a very good experience beating back edema fast with water-only fasting. Fasting resets the pancreas and directly addresses the metabolic disturbance that is typically behind edema esp. in older or overweight persons. Earth Clinic has a whole section on fasting. You will be amazed at the results! :-)
