Manganese for Hypermobility

Harriet (Palmetto, FL) on 10/13/2026
4 out of 5 stars

During my days of young motherhood the hypermobility I have always experienced was greatly magnified. At that time I was attended by a manual chiropractor. He told me that all "they" had ever discovered that helped loose ligaments was manganese. Not magnesium, but manganese. He put me on 200 mg a day. I believe it did help somewhat. Everybody is different, and people are on different medications. It is an inexpensive experiment but check with your doctor to make sure it is ok for you body to try. Nowadays, the largest milligrams I've been able to find is 50 which means four pills a day.

Atlas Orthogonal Method for Hypermobility / Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Hypermobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

For those of us with hypermobility we often need a chiropractor to put us back in place. I have been a chiropractic patient for 45 years both Palmer (manual) and Atlas Orthogonal method. I highly recommend the AO method as a small tool, a percussion instrument, is used to adjust instead of the twist and shove method. This way there is no pain, it's a light touch because it goes so fast your body has no time to tense up against it like it does a doctor's hands, and it doesn't stretch us any further!

In my experience there are two kinds of AO doctors. One only adjusts the atlas and assumes that everything else will fall in line once he does that. Not so on hypermobile people. We need an AO doctor that will adjust our extremities. I drive an hour to see my chiro because he adjusts my occiput, atlas, neck, entire spine, SI joint, tailbone, wrist, thumb, shoulder, knees, and ankle. And yes most of those need to be adjusted often accept my Atlas is finally holding in place.

You have to look for a doctor that does the whole body which means if you find an atlas doctor online you need to call and ask if this doctor only does the atlas or if he does the rest of the body also. You can begin by looking on this website

Even my 88-year-old mother-in-law has started going to my chiro and found such relief! But she would never have gone to a "twist-shove-craaack" manual doctor and said so.

Honey for Myelodysplastic Syndrome

I was diagnosed with MDS 6 years ago. It was a low risk 13Q. My doctor only watches me and my labs. But taking a drug to increase red count temporarily is being offered.

FATIGUE is why I am submitting this. I am not suffering that right now, but have in the past. I read up on Royal jelly and bee pollen in raw honey and decided to try it. If it is permitted to say the brand: Y.D. Eco Bee Farms, 24oz jar from Swansons online.

I did not tell my husband because he's often skeptical of home remedies. I served myself one teaspoon each morning with the proper handling of the honey: using a wooden or plastic spoon, and keeping the Honey at room temperature. I noticed a difference in me by the next day. On day 4 my husband noticed! And so did my 87-year-old mother-in-law who lives with us! Because she noticed the difference she had me order some for her! There was quite a while where we were taking it every day. And I, for one, stopped needing a nap in the middle of the day. I was 70 or 71 when I started this. Now neither of us feel the need to take it every day.

As a side note, I have always been hypermobile. It was "just the way I am" without any clue that other things in my body such as all the surgeries for prolapses and hernias, constipation, TMJ, etc, I am starting to get explanations since studying up on POTS, EDS & hEDS! So I plan on adding to your pages on dysautonomia with some things I've learned.

Try coptis and scute detox. Powerful bitters with allot of great benefits. Feed good bacteria as much as possible do dairy or anything that helps bad bacteria strive. Could take a year to kill off naturally

Campho-Phenique for Facial Erysipelas

Rob (Kentucky) on 10/13/2026
5 out of 5 stars

CAMPHO-PHENIQUE.

The Medical Summary, A Monthly Journal of Practical Medicine, New Preparations, p.66 · Volume 12 ~ 1890

Campho-Phenique was brought to my attention a few months ago, and though I had used it somewhat in minor surgical cases, I had no opportunity to test its real merits in anything like a decisive manner until very recently, and the results have been such that I think I am justified in placing them before the profession, and thus calling their attention to a remedy of great value, and of a wide range of applicability and usefulness.

The first serious case in which I determined to test Campho-Phenique was one of facial erysipelas. The face was very much swollen, and the patient (a woman) was in great pain. Having first caused the entire inflamed area to be well washed with alcohol, the remedy was applied with a camel's-hair brush over the surface, and orders were left that the application should be repeated every four hours. To my great satisfaction the patient felt great relief shortly after the first application, and, as I subsequently learned, felt absolutely no pain or inconvenience for about three hours after the application.

A second application was made as directed, and to my great surprise the pain was subdued at once. It left then and there, and did not again return. The remedy was subsequently applied six times (eight applications in all), the disease rapidly yielding under its effects, and the cure being rapid and complete. I should add that in addition to the applications of Campho-Phenique I administered muriated tincture of iron, internally in doses of 12 drops every four hours. This, of course, may (and probably did) have had something to do with the result, but we cannot attribute the sudden and remarkable anæsthesia to this cause, and though often used, the tincture of iron never before exhibited any such happy effect. I am therefore justified, I think, in attributing the cure to Campho-Phenique.

I would say, further (what I am sure all who have ever treated erysipelas of this description will endorse), that even though the remedy had no directly curative properties, its great and absolute control of the element of pain makes it of the very highest value in these and similar cases.

Re: Antiseptic Mouth Wash for Tooth Cavities

Thank you! I’ve seen others mention carbonated water, but I don’t understand this. Isn’t it just carbon dioxide gas? It’s not acidic, right? If you mean sodas, like with sugar added, I would understand that. Or am I missing something?

Re: Emotional 8 Year Old Daughter - Any Remedies That Can Help?

mmsg (somewhere, europe) on 10/13/2026

Kelly, I have seen something similar, altho the basis there was anxiety. Sertraline didn't help, but a spoonful of blackstrap molasses did, surprisingly. To this day, when that person gets into the "mode" a spoon of molasses (the really black stuff) in hot water, helps noticeably.

Try serrapeptase. It dissolves dead tissue.

Both serrapeptase and nattokinase address biofilm

Bromelain also

Re: Oil of Oregano for Bronchitis

Paula (Oregon) on 10/12/2026

@Chloe99 you may not be in here anymore, but I thought I'd make a note in here of the brand I found of oregano oil that meets the specifications you mentioned. It's called Gaia Herbs Oil of Oregano and I found it at Fred Meyer which is a Kroger store. If you ARE still on this site, thanks so much for your post.

Emotional 8 Year Old Daughter - Any Remedies That Can Help?

Kelly (Georgia) on 10/12/2026

Emotional 8 Year old Daughter

Hello all, thought I would see if anyone had some insight. My daughter for most of her life has been very emotional. I e tried teaching her how to handle emotions, etc. She has also gained a bit of weight over the last 2 years, I don’t feel like she eats enough to justify it. But wondering if anyone has tried any type of supps or eating changes that have helped something like this. Thanks!

I have to agree. I have a number of autoimmune conditions and tried the Carnicore diet for several months. I had a crisis and ended up in the hospital. They tested me like crazy. The ony thing they could find wrong was my thyroid (I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis) did a severe nosedive into the basement. I am, of course, no longer on that diet.

SIBO and Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth - Remedies Needed

Beth (Calimesa, Ca) on 10/11/2026

Hello Everyone,

Im new and hoping to get some feed back.. I have been officially diagnosed with IMO (Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth) its a nasty bacteria in the Small Intestines that hides under a Biofilm. I'm having a VERY difficult time trying to get rid of it. I was originally diagnosed with IBS 8 years ago, But after doing my own research I took an expensive Breath Taste and discovered I had IMO. Its Evil and causes Lots of gut issues.

If you have any suggestions or have completely cured this Bacteria, I would LOVE the Protocol you used.

Thank you for any information you can send my way. Blessing to you

Re: DMSO for Tendonitis

Cynthia (BC) on 10/11/2026

DMSO works well for me. Sometimes I forget, and try other things that don't work. I have never had an itchy occurence.. I wonder if that might have to do with having another layer of something else (lotion? chlorine from a swimming pool?) that clashes with the DMSO? Maybe a slight allergy to the DMSO or one of its constituents? I just use 99.9% pure with clean hands on clean skin, no lotion-type DMSO.
