TENDONITIS

1 YEA

[YEA]  07/04/2009: Alexis from Los Angeles, CA writes: "I am 31 years old and spent the last 20 years of my life being very active. I used to run 4-6 miles every morning and played tennis regularly. About 2 years ago I noticed a pain in my left knee. I saw doctor after doctor and the pain seemed to just get worse. I finally had an MRI and the Dr. said I had patella Tendinitis which is common. Many people have patella Tendinitis and continue to live and workout. I stopped working out completely and found myself becoming more and more sedentary. I live one block from the beautiful Pacific Ocean and I wouldn't even walk to the ocean because the pain in my knees had gotten that bad. I even started using a cane to get around. About 3 weeks ago my younger sister recommended that I boil some water and take 2Tbl spoons of ACV and that every morning I should drink 6oz of water with 1/4tsp of baking soda. I am an avid baker who has a gluten allergy so I never get to eat what I bake but I always have fresh baking soda on hand. I didn't have the ACV so I just started drinking the baking soda every morning and OMG I have been smiling from cheek to cheek because my pain has gone away. I am not running yet but I walk everywhere now. Baking Soda once a day has changed my life. After reading others stories I am going to start using the ACV because it sounds like it has many healthy benefits."

TOENAIL FUNGUS

1 YEA

[YEA]  02/21/2008: Jessyka from Memphis, TN, USA writes: "I had the horrid nail fungus many years ago and took Lamasil to clear it up. When my father failed to do the same, the fungus returned years later, both pinky toenails now fully infected. Without the money for the medicine and the will to again risk its side-effects, I lived with it. 11 days ago, I adopted a baking soda regimine for other reasons (cancer preventative). Today, my right pinky nail simply fell off when I was drying after my morning shower. Beneath, a new nail - a perfect nail - was found growing in. Nothing else in my diet or lifestyle has changed other than the baking soda addition to my routine. Most Americans' lifestyles and diets leave our bodies too acidic for good health. Baking soda balances the bodies Ph, creating a more alkaline system. I mix 1 teaspoon in a glass of water at bedtime. Ideally, it's recommended taken in the morning with no food or drink for 1 hour before or after; however, as I'm hypoglycemic, I have to have my Coca-Cola (others have coffee) first thing each morning, so I don't drop dead. Regardless, I've noticed a number of improvements since adopting the baking soda routine (which is terribly easy to do - quick and simple). I'm sleeping better, my skin is clearing up, and, lo and behold, my toenail fungus is obviously dead... in eleven days!!! [Insert delighted giggle here] I couldn't believe it when I discovered the old infected nail barely holding on and falling away with the first touch and a shiny new healthy nail beneath (even if it is small yet). Now, I'm watching the still-infected nail on the left, and yes, it's got a line of "disconnection" appearing. I recommend giving the baking soda a try and do so for more reasons than defeated nail fungus. Go ahead, google "baking soda" and see how much you discover. In some European country (think it was Italy or Germany), a doctor is actually curing cancer with baking soda therapy, even in serious cases where changing the bodies Ph to one more alkaline is making all other treatments (as chemo) doubly effective. Cancer cells cannot thrive or spread in an alkaline environment. And consider this - it's in your kitchen. You cook with it. You eat it. It's non-toxic, has no ill side-effects, costs almost nothing, and even whitens teeth. I can't say everyone will have the astounding all-around results I have so quickly encountered, but I'd have to encourage them to give it a shot. It's too easy to implement not to try. That's one teaspoon baking soda stirred into one glass of water, once a day, preferably in the morning (but it doesn't seem to matter), with no food or drink for an hour before or after. Good luck."

ULCERATIVE COLITIS

[NAY]  09/03/2007: Daniel from New Plymouth, New Zealand writes: "I just tried taking baking soda for ulcerative colitis and it seemed to make things worse. I got a ph test kit and my ph seems to be alkaline most of the time anyway. as my ph came down after taking the baking soda my bowel got better. Not sure what's going on but it is very weird. what to do?"

[YEA]  08/23/2007: Ela from Baltimore, MD writes: "I have ulcerative colitis and typical with this disease, you are sickest in the mornings. well i was looking through the internet out of desperation and typed in natural cures for uc, and read a couple stories of people swearing that baking soda mixed with water has cured their uc. well, i tried it and it has (after 3 nights of drinking before bed) so far cut the severity of my morning sickness by about 75%! i even can't believe it. its very interesting and i'm gonna keep doing it and noting my progress."

WHERE TO BUY: INDIA

07/24/2009: Kavi from Chennai, India writes: "where to buy baking soda in chennai? we have cooking soda available in every shop but not baking soda?????"

08/17/2009: Shanti from Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India replies: "Hi Kavi,

I am living in Tiruvannamalai (Tamil Nadu) and we went to a pharmacist and he told us appar soda (spelling may be wrong?) is bicarb soda. I think this is what you are referring to when you say cooking soda. We went to the supermarket and I tasted some and it tasted just like normal bicarb soda, so we have been using it for a month now and it seems to be the right stuff! I haven't used it internally, but my partner and I use it every day as deoderant, skin scrub and general cleanser around the house too. Actually I would not hesitate to use it internally if I felt the urge. I just haven't felt the urge yet!

Hope this helps. :)
Shanti"

08/19/2009: Kavi from Chennai, India replies: "hi shanthi, u mean to say cooking soda and baking soda are same in india? how far it worked when u used?"

08/20/2009: Baldev from Mumbai, Maharastra, India replies: "Hi,Shanthi and Kavi better use Sodium bi carbonate in place of baking Soda and that is available with every chemist in India, the quality is assured.
baldev"

08/21/2009: Shanti from Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India replies: "Hi Kavi and Baldev,

Yes, Appar Soda from the grocery store (not the pharmacy) seems to be the right stuff, bicarbonate of soda. I tried all the pharmacists in Tiruvannamalai and no one had Bicarb soda, but then one pharmacist told me appar soda is bicarbonate soda. Well as I said my partner and I are using it as deoderant very successfully for over a month and the last 2 days I have taken it internally too (I am not dead yet!, so think it must be alright!). Ok not such a scientific way to approach this, but if people are using it for cooking it must be ok to take internally, right? It was only rs 5 per 100 grams. Very cheap and good quality as far as I can see. I have also successfully used it to wash my hair one time and also to do other household cleaning.

AumNS
Shanti"

09/27/2009: Pugee from Madurai, India replies: "According to a pharmacist, Aapa soda, idli soda, palakara soda and samayal soda are the same name for baking soda in Tamil; further he told, baking soda is different from baking powder.

Does any one know where i can get "Apple cidar vinegar" in Tamilnadu?"
