2 days agoAlpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) for Eye Floaters
I'm sorry I don't remember the dose of ALA I took, but it was nothing out of the ordinary. A local health food store owner recommended it to me and said it had cured several of her customers who had floaters. She recommended taking it with Vit C. My floaters were gone in 4-5 days.
Re: Trace Minerals and Apple Cider Vinegar for Muscle Cramps
2 days agoHi Misty -
I think Timh may be referring to ConcenTrace Minerals.
https://www.traceminerals.com/products/concentrace-trace-mineral-drops-8-oz
I've been using it for many years to remineralize my distilled water.
You can get it at health food stores, water supply stores that sell jugs of distilled water, Walmart used to (don't know if they still do), online, etc.
Cheers,
Tessa

2 days agoRe : Melatonin's Topical Benefits: 40 Ways It Soothes Pain And One Benefit Confirmed In Human Study
Item #4 mentions that one of my friends found significant relief for migraine headaches which usually last them about a week and now are over in less than a day. This new study (May, 2024) adds confirmation to the idea that melatonin relieves migraine headaches as discussed here :
https://ijms.sums.ac.ir/article_49688.html
Here is a relevant study quote :
' Our study shows that melatonin was more efficacious than the placebo in the reduction of frequency and duration of migraine attacks. It was equally safe as the placebo and might be effective in the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults. '

Re: Need Remedies for Rope Worms
2 days agoGarlic has a long history of use for the prevention of parasites in the GI tract. Dioscorides (40-90 AD) the chief physician for Nero's army, In his well respected medical text, Materia Medica, Dioscorides recommended garlic to expel worms and parasites from the body. Culpepper said: Garlic kills the worms in children.
It is recommended to eat garlic daily and garlic enema are beneficial to remove parasites from the intestinal tract. Garlic is a powerful antibacterial and anti-parasitic which is a tremendous aid to your digestive tract. The garlic cloves contain a germicidal agent that kills parasites and their eggs.
As a general guide, the Amish say that consuming 2 cloves of garlic is considered a medical dose. Taken 3-4 times daily.
Garlic will cure your candida problem “if taken long enough”, I make a very strong ‘Garlic Immune Support Tonic' for people to drink and it works everything.
For your toe nail fungus. If your nails are yellow, spray them with Listerine mouthwash ‘original' the yellow liquid 2x daily for about a month for good results.
Cinnamon and Honey for Arthritis
2 days agoOn January 17, 1995, Beatrice Dexter's article about the benefits of honey and cinnamon powder appeared in The Weekly World News. It was the tabloid sold at the grocery store checkout line, with headlines like “Bat Boy” and “I Married Bigfoot.”… I miss those papers; they were hilarious.
Arthritis patients should take, twice a day (morning and night), a cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly, even chronic arthritis can be cured.
A research at the Copenhagen University observed doctors treating their patients with a mixture of 1 tbsp honey and 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder before breakfast. Within a week, out of the 200 people treated, 73 patients were totally relieved of pain; within a month, almost all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis started walking without pain. Arthritis patients should take, twice a day (morning and night), a cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly, even chronic arthritis can be cured.
I've been taking Ceylon cinnamon (sticks ground into a powder using my coffee grinder). I've been at it now for 2 1/2 weeks and I can tell a difference. My joints are not as stiff. I plan on doing this for a full 6 weeks and I'll report back with results.
Need Remedies for Rope Worms
3 days agoHi
I have had gastrointestinal issues for decades, but the last 6 days have been very difficult. my belly looks pregnant, am almost 63 and not heterosexually active so it is impossible. I feel pregnant almost hard to walk, hard to eat cause soooo full feeling, bloated gas and though I poop I keep straining and feels like always more needs to come out. I see worms or what look like worms, some between 10 and 20 inches long. the herbalist says they are rope worms. I take mimosa picuda and they slide out with that. if I dont take it, they dont come out. I have been badly blocked before and hospitilized a few years back. I have tried olive oil and lemon juice, water enemas, a sesame oil enema which left me feeling dizzy, salt water cleanses, fennel and chamomile tea, a paste of gluten free asafoetida ( hing) and Indian condiment. and am going to try a tea made of fennel, coriander, cumin and ajwain seeds. I also tried a glycerin suppository in my rectum. I still feel bloated and full. any ideas please on the full feeling pregnant like belly and the rope worms. I want to get rid of them but they cannot come out too fast or I get blocked and it is dangerous. thank you so much. I also have lyme disease and candida and fungal toenails. thank you for responding. I cant eat grains cause they block me up or beans.
Re: Garlic and Dogs
3 days agoRegarding garlic. A long time ago (1982), I worked for an animal hospital as a vet tech, and the veterinarian I worked for highly recommended garlic pills (500mg) for all the animals he treated. I don't know when or why the myth of garlic being dangerous or harmful came about but in the 90's I had 5 dogs I had rescued and I needed to keep them safe from fleas, etc. I gave them all garlic daily and they all lived long normal lives. In the winter I'd stop for 3 to 4 months. I had a friend who kept her German Shepherd in a doghouse while she worked during the day and she asked me for help regarding the fleas her Shepherd suffered from. I told her what the vet I worked for recommended and she started him on it and within 5 days he had no more fleas on him or in his doghouse. Seriously, I believe vets started this myth in order to make money from their clients so they'd buy more expensive products from their vets.
L-lysine for TN
3 days agoL-lysine... yes! I was suffering so much with horribly severe, shocking, debilitating pain in my right cheek and under my lower right wisdom tooth, and had all the symptoms I get with a cold sore but with no actual cold sore present. I didn't recognize the other symptoms readily because the pain was so very severe. Within an hour of taking a material dose of l-lysine, I have so much relief I could cry. I need to reevaluate my diet for lysine to arginine ratio and stay aware of symptoms because, looking back, I see there was a lead-up to the pain becoming overwhelming. Once again, EC has restored my will to live! Thank you so much for this forum and thanks to all members who take time out to help others by posting their experiences. I am so grateful! <333
L-lysine for Trigeminal Neuralgia
3 days agoThank you so very much for posting your experience with TN and taking L-lysine. I've been suffering for a week with horrible, debilitating TN pain in my right cheek and into my mandible under my wisdom tooth. After I read your post, I realized I was having a lot of symptoms that I get with cold sores but without any actual cold sores present. I already had a bottle of L-lysine on hand in case I get a cold sore so I immediately took some and within an hour, I kid you not, ALL my symptoms are starting to dissipate rapidly. All good blessings to you, tysm!

3 days agoThe Importance of Stretching for Pain
3 days ago
My neck has been tight since I slept wrong the other day. While the ACV wrap helped with pain, I was still stiff.
I tried my wobble cushion/wiggle seat and within minutes got a couple of great pops/cracks in my neck - better than when I go to the chiropractor! I learned when I went to a scoliosis clinic for 2 weeks last year how much of my pain and/or stiffness is caused by tight muscles. Since going to that clinic I have done stretches on a regular basis and what a difference it makes.
I highly recommend a wobble cushion. You can get one on Amazon for $20. Don't get the ones that look like a disk. Get one that has a profile of an ellipse.
The chiropractic clinic had me using it twice a day for 10 minutes each time. I am sure there are YouTube videos that will show you how to use one properly.
Also on Amazon you can get a neck traction thing like they have a chiropractors. I still use the one I got from the chiropractic clinic.
My sister-in-law is a runner. She knows a lot about stretching. One time she was visiting and I mentioned my hip pain. She said it was from a tight muscle in my leg. She showed me a stretch to use with a foam roller. I was skeptical, but it worked! The tight/contracting muscle on the outside of my upper leg was stressing my hip. When I have hip pain that stretch works every time.
I am 57. I thought that a lot of my pain was from degeneration. It turns out that often my pain is from tight muscles, a much easier problem to fix!

3 days agoI want to add that not all prism glasses will work. The whole topic is not well researched yet, and I learned that most optometrists, manufacture way too strong prism glasses that can actually have damaging side effects over time. So if you go down that rout, please take some time to research!
