STUTTERING DISAPPEARS WITH COLD OR FLU - WHY?

I wish you really all the best. One simple question : why I don't stutter when I have a cold or flu???? It is really a wonderful experience!!!! Is it because of the vocal cord becoming wet from mucous or what?? I tried to find anything out from the medical literature here and there but to no avail!!!! please advice or help me in the research work.. It is really unbeleivable how I can fluently talk whenever I have a flu or cold?? I'm sure it has something to do with the mucus or the wet stuff in the vocal cord but I COULD NOT SCIENTIFICALLY tie it therewith!! Is there anything else you would like to add regarding stuttering other than the material posted in the stuttering page in earthclinic???
Eagerly awiting your reply...All the best Sir and take care.

it is a well known fact that whenever a person has a flu the body tries to raise its body temperature and alkalinity to fight of the flu. Whenever the alkalinity is raised, the solubility of heavy metals do not disturb the neural connections where heavy metals are reduced. It is known that free radical heavy metals are hydrophobic, but are fat soluble, or soluble in fat emulsifiers so the body can rid of them easier. However, certain foods, actually nearly all the foods have lead that exceeds the safety limits anyway, which is one of the heavy metals that worsen them. For example, generally speaking a manufacturer of supplements are required only to produce lead below 10 parts per million, while a good safety level of lead that is considered safe should be below 2 parts per million, for the brain to operate optimally. Therefore a small pinch of disodium EDTA in a drinking water three times a day, will help reduce the buildup, as well as granulated lecithin, which makes heavy metal easier to get rid of. The primary work of the disodium EDTA (which reduces calcium allowing more normal nerve impulses) is to reduce the FREE heavy metals which disturbs the neurological problems.
Certain high aspartic and high glutamic acid are excitotoxins, particularly are found in cheese, dairy products, asparagus, tomatoes, MSG, aspartame, Nutrasweet, sugar free chewing gum and the like. Peppermint tends to disturb neural transmission also. Distribution of potassium and magnesium is up whenever a person has a flu in extracellular fluids and therefore, to neutralize this the most common supplements I have used are magnesium and potassium.
The dose of magnesium (without any calcium) is the magnesium chloride or magnesium gluconate 500 mg which protects heavy metal toxicity that is commonly associated with stuttering. The neurological damages when nerves are transmitted occurs for many reasons, high heavy metals, metabolic acidosis, low body temperature, for example. Whenever a person reports reduce stuttering from the flu, besides the alkalinity the body needs to raise, which is helped with 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda with 1/2 teaspoon of potassium bicarbonate in 1 glass of water twice a day, is that higher body temperature increase circulation allowing neural transmission to operate better because of the increase circulation that occurs duringa flu outbreak. Chlorophyll is considered a porphyrins which tends to reduce damages of neurological damages caused by peroxynitrites, which are found whenever the body has low circulation, low body temperature and low oxygen. During a flu outbreak, you have the opposite, which are high circulation, hogh body temperature, and more breathing, and hence more oxygen. With that, you have less stuttering.

QUESTIONS ABOUT TED'S BAKING SODA AND LIME JUICE REMEDY FOR STUTTERING
09/10/2008: Anonymous writes: "Good day Ted,
I came across your article on stuttering (on earth clinic) while doing an online research on stuttering cure. From my research, I will like to just say a Big THANK YOU, for putting information out there to help people. Your work is really appreciated.
I have been a stutterer all my life, and will define my stuttering as mild, with my case being more on blockage than repetition of words. I am sure you know all to well the negative social effect stuttering can have on the quality of life, simple things that people take for granted is a struggle for me. Simple things for example saying my name is sometime so diffcult for me. I have cried so many time because of this problem.
I am about to start working full time in the oil and gas industry, and I am in DESPERATE need to find a way to overcome this problem. I read about the advice you gave on using Baking soda and lime juice. I will be eternally greatful if I can get more information on how to use the baking soda and lime juice remedy to help me manage my stuttering. How often do I take it, what dosage, side effects.
Thank you so much, and I look forward to hearing back from you.
Have a good day..Thank you again."

A stuttering is usually helped with baking soda and lime because of its alkalizing potential in causing the neural system to relax. An acidity or excessive stimulation of the neural system can lead to a stuttering condition. Although I have a long list of remedies, the simplest one is the baking soda and lemon. The required dose is 2 tablespoon of lemon juice (or preferably lime juice) plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in at least 1/2 glass of water, but preferably 1 glass of water taken twice or three times a day on an empty stomach, preferably 30 minutes before eating. It takes about 3 weeks for the body to properly alkalized an notice the improving conditions.Several neural factors and auto intoxication are possible, and other supplements therefore may improve such conditions. However, I prefer to deal with environmental causes that leads to metabolic acidosis, where the brain is most greatly effected. Such as the toxic effects of hydrocarbons (they cause more stuttering from metabolic acidosis), the damaging effect of free heavy metals (most of the water we drink actually has high free heavy metals), and the artificial sugars. These are the common toxins, and hence, chlorophyll and chlorella taken once every three days 250-500 mg for a month for example should clear of heavy metals. Granulated lecithin, Inositol B8, vitamin C, and fish oil helps. The does for granulated lecithin is one tablespoons a day, fish oil are 1000 mg taken once every other day, and vitamin E 200 i.u. taken once every week should help. The dose of vitamin C is 250 mg to 1000 mg taken once every other day, or once every two day usually do. However, most of the help comes from magnesium supplements, such as magnesium chloride or magnesium citrate 250 mg, once a day, with a two day break every week. It is my observations that stuttering may be very much DUE TO excessive tightening of calcium which pulls on the vocal cords and prevent people from saying it properly because it is hard to do.
Therefore magnesium will relax these muscles without excessive pull on the vocal cords. Therefore my new remedy in my opinion requires the addition of magnesium also, besides the other supplements to helps control contraction and relaxation of muscle vocal cords. A proper balance of electrolytes such as taking sea salt, a pinch a day in a drinking water twice a day helps also. It the brain's metabolism is a problem effecting stuttering, then it might be possible that reduction of brain's oxidation using 200 mcg taken on ocassion in the form of selenium yeast may help. Certain anti nutrients such as milk, yogurt, and white eggs should be avoided, and high calcium products such as potatoes and excess sugar may cause the stress hormones to be too high can also lead to stuttering from its tendency to cause unstable blood sugar (usually hypoglycemia). leading to stuttering also.
