Gum and Mouth Issues Post Root Canal
2 months agoHello,
I've been following some remedies from Earth Clinic and I hope they are helping. I had a terrible infection under an old root canal that had to get redone. I took amoxil about two months ago. It is now two months later and dentist did the post and crown and told me there is still some infection under the tooth. I know because I feel it: it feels heavy and sometimes painful. I've been taking CDS regularly, rinsing with DMSO+CDS nightly, baking soda rinses, and oil pulling once every few days. In the past few days I've been spitting out a pink filmy substance from my mouth every morning. There is more pink substance on the bottom around my gums and teeth than on top. I rinse with water and spit and pieces come out in the water. Anyone know what that is and what I can do about it? I don't see it throughout the day. Perhaps it's from leaving DMSO+CDS on my teeth overnight without rinsing? Any help would be appreciated. I hope it is not a more severe issue.

Re: Fibro
2 months agoOnce again, thank you for this but I'm going to try tDCS for sleep to see if it works. I use it for my fibromyalgia and it's taken away the pain and brain fog so maybe this will work too. Again, thanks!
Re: General Health Statement
2 months agoNope. While I believe in good, clean, healthy living genetics play a HUGE and major role in what comes down your way as you age. I've always been a heavy exerciser, then COVID took me down. I now have long COVID fibromyalgia and that means EVERY nerve in my body is affected. Yet I treated my body as if it were a Temple but an organism so small we can only see it with an electron microscope changed my life forever and killed millions of others. There's that saying "Never underestimate the little ones, they're spicy"..
ACV and Baking Soda Paste for Skin Cancer
2 months agoIn 2014 I noticed a basal cell opening above my elbow on my right arm. It did not heal on its own. I decided to use a paste of Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking soda on it. It burned like crazy for a day or two then it turned black. I continued to put the paste on it for a few weeks. Literally ROOTS started to show under the black spot!!!! The black spot scabbed over and fell off showing pink skin under it. The roots turned white. Eventually that faded but there is still a white spot there over 10 years later and I am cancer free. I just noticed a similar spot forming on my neck above the adams apple and I am applying the same ACV/Baking soda paste now and its working. This is not "snake oil" it will work if you catch the cancer soon enough.

2 months agoHeart Sensations After Taking Diuretic
2 months agoAfter having SSCD (inner ear) surgery 3yrs ago, more recent tests revealed my inner ear is inflammed causing constant whoosh noise and occasional frequencies of tinnitus. ENT prescribed diuretics in September, stopped due to side effects; serc betahistaine then prescribed. Ear issues excerbated. ENT suggested minimizing salt. Within 3 weeks, it felt like someone was pushing their finger into my chest/heart area, faintness, headaches. An RN friend asked if ENT said to replace loss of minerals with potassium and electrolytes. No, but I started and within a week was feeling much better. The problem now is that I'm experiencing occasional: light sensation of a vibration (seems like the lower part of heart or chest), a little light-headedness and feeling like my heart skips a beat every so often. Had an EKG and CT scan this month and all was fine - CT showed no plaque. Thoughts?
[As a sidenote, my family and I have had high cholesterol. I've been able to lower mine by having red meats occasionally, eliminated wheat and went gluten free, healthy veggies and fruits. When visiting Italy, friends there said I could eat pasta & breads due to their white soft wheat (the US has red, hard wheat) and lack of bromine. My husband's cousin works in a 'lab', said gluten is extracted from wheat, sent to another plant, and it returns as a large glutenous block resembling tofu to increase shelf life. I left a loaf of wheat bread next to the furnace for 3 months, and no mold. Bromine is added to wheat in the states but banned in Europe. It's linked to headaches, memory loss, skin issues, and more. Hope RFK Jr. bans it.

Since I posted that in 2017, I have more recently gotten feedback that melatonin lotion (ML) helps eczema and is simpler to make. Here is a link about ML and how to make it :

And here is a link for melatonin gel (MG) and how to make it, which is more useful for sensitive areas and is probably a better choice for eczema :

Alum for Skin Tags under Armpits
2 months agoAlum Crystals Deodorant (Potassium Aluminum Sulfate) for Skin Tags in Armpits–
So I made-up a spray bottle of this natural deodorant using Alum (same stuff form the spice isle at the grocery store). I am about 2/3 through the 5 oz bottle and I'm pleased to report this stuff works great for small skin tags in the armpits. It is the most simplest and effective method I've tried.
Natural deodorant spray – Source: https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/body_odor.html#acd
Potassium aluminum sulfate, also known as (alum) a mineral salt, is used in pickling cucumbers, cosmetics and personal care products due to its astringent and bacteriostatic properties. I remember crystal deodorant stones sold back in the 1990's as a natural alternative is commercial chemical deodorants. Alum possesses antiseptic quality which helps to destroy germs and prevents their growth on the body tissues. Alum acts by creating a salt layer on the skin that prevents bacterial proliferation. Studies have shown that alum can effectively inhibit the growth of various bacteria, including E. coli and S. aureus. This helps to neutralize bacteria and eliminate odor. While not specifically designed to treat skin viruses, alum's ability to inhibit bacterial growth and its astringent properties can be beneficial in managing skin conditions like warts, which are caused by virus (human papillomavirus family of viruses).
It acts as an excellent astringent that enables the skin tissue to shrink and thus, do not let the germs get into skin pores. It controls body odor. It can be applied directly on the perspiring areas of the body. As it is soluble in water, it mixes up with the sweat and stop the growth of bacteria that causes body odor. Those who suffer from the problem of foot odor should apply it on their feet regularly before going to bed in order to get relief from it.
Its deodorant effect lasts up to 24 hours, depending on the person.
Alum deodorant spray can be made by dissolving ground alum in water and spraying it on the underarms. Alum, a mineral salt, is known for its astringent and antibacterial properties, helping to neutralize odor-causing bacteria. You can also add a few drops of essential oils for a pleasant scent.
Recipe:
Spray bottle (re-purposed 5 oz bottle cleaned)
Ground alum powder (bought in spice isle)
Distilled water (or filtered, warm water)
Optional: Essential oils (tea tree)
Instructions:
Dissolve the Alum: In a spray bottle, combine 2-3 teaspoons of ground alum powder with a cup of warm water.
Shake Well: Ensure the alum is fully dissolved. You may need to shake the bottle to help it dissolve faster.
Add Essential Oils (Optional): If desired, add a few drops (20 drops) of your chosen essential oil to the solution.
Spray and Go: Shake the bottle before each use and spray on clean, dry underarms.
Application: Apply the spray after showering or as needed, ensuring your underarms are dry before applying.
Re: Infected Heel From Diabetes
2 months ago@ Florida
A few months back this guy named Tim calls me. He is from Kentucky but now lives in the Philippines, he has family here in Kentucky so that's how he found me. Anyway, he is diabetic and has a hole in the bottom of his foot (texted me pics, GROSS). The local doctors wanted to cut his foot off since they could not control the infection.
Access to western medicine at his location on the Island was limited. So I told him a story about how the Roman soldiers used garlic infused oil (topically) to control infection and heal wounds. I also told him about how we use “Sugardine” on our farm animals and humans with wounds.
He was interested in using both methods. I instructed him over the phone how to make both.
2 or 3 months had past and Tim called me again to tell me the results. He had went back to the hospital in Manila. The doctor's took one look at his foot and were speechless. Only a callus was where the hole was. No infection or hole… The doctor asked him what he did to heal it? So Tim told him.

General Health Statement (New Open Forum Page Created in Remedies)
2 months agoHey all,
EC is a wonderful place for anyone to get help with issues, disorders, conditions, ailments and so on. In fact it is hands down better than any other site or medical doctor!
I would sooner use a site like this than go seek medical consultation with a white coat!
But, I have a few questions and I guess a statement...
First, Are people taking stock of their health and fitness? Or are people just looking to sites like this when they are ill?
I find as an Veteran, many of my ex and current soldiers 'let themselves go', then complain about things not related to service. They become overweight, then start having issues. They get lazy, sit around all day, and get issues. They eat garbage packaged food, fast food, then get issues.
Now of course people will say, as you age you get issues. Nah, I dont subscribe to that at all. Nowhere does it say you get issues just because your 50,60,70 or more. It doesn't have to be.
People need to take stock and take a good hard look at their life and tell themselves the truth.
Quick story from my life.
20 years service, many regions in the world. Been places and did things no one wants to do but a select few. We did them.
Our thanks, ptsd, depression, 6 fractured vertebrae, compressed and damaged left hip, perm nerve damage, headaches, episodes of fear and hate.
That was at 42, when I retired. They told me I would never walk without a cane, and most likely be in a wheelchair by 50. Lost my drivers license, spent 6 months in traction, meds and treatments for years.
Today perfect heath, 54 years old, no meds, 205 pounds of muscle, less than 10 percent bodyfat, can run 10k before left foot gets tingles, can squat over 400 pounds, hit the gym 6 days a week. No sign of anything else. Yearly check up on my back its almost completely healed. Bones healed, discs back in place, nerves good.
SO what I am getting at, is that no matter what crap comes down on you, and no matter how old you are, or what you think is 'normal' for your age, there is something you can do about it. If you eat right, exercise, take vitamins, and if religious-pray-you can overcome anything. Nothing is age related! Nothing can not be prevented. You don't need to get sick.
We need a massive worldwide push to get off meds, get away from the medical establishment, and start looking after ourselves BEFORE we get ill or sick.
Sorry all, I just needed to get it off my chest.
Best health for everyone!!
