Re: Vitamin A+ for Grover's Disease Rash
2 days agoI asked the same question about the Pfizer vaccines. I had 5 since COVID but declined the last recommended dose. Somewhere after the 3rd dose, I had the Grover's come on, and it continues. My wife took the Pfizer Covid vaccine and developed severe Psoriasis that took her 3 years to get free of.
Re: Oatmeal for Lowering Cholesterol
2 days agoOatmeal does work for lowering cholesterol, but the high carb factor (even with the built in fiber) messes with my blood sugar. I found something even better--Amla fruit. I purchased powdered form off Amazon and my LDL went from 223 to 164 in less than six months. Be sure and order the type that has been tested for heavy metals as it's a fruit from India. You may be able to find the actual fruit at your local international markets. Dr. Greger (real M.D.) recommended on nutritionfacts.org --to see the scientific report. Game changer.

2 days agoTaking Walter Last's Borax Concentration - Causing Throat Irritation
2 days agoHi Joyann,
You didn't mention if your husband is diabetic or not, but that would be an important consideration.
Regarding your husband's chronic kidney disease (CKD), there are several supplements worth considering. First, he may be interested in reading this article I wrote about CKD and useful supplements to discuss with his doctor :
https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/chronic-kidney-disease-art-solbrig.html
Other supplements worth discussing with his doctor are as follows :
1. Vitamin C As Ascorbate :
Here is a relevant quote from the link :
' Currently, 60 mg of ascorbate are recommended for chronic kidney disease patients, and 1-1.5 g of oral ascorbate/week in case of suspected subclinical ascorbate deficiency or 300 mg parenteral ascorbate/dialysis session, respectively.'
2. Silymarin :
Here is a relevant quote from the above link :
' Recent evidence suggests that silymarin may be just as important for kidney health as for liver. Silymarin concentrates in kidney cells, where it aids in repairing and regeneration by increasing protein and nucleic acid synthesis. One study suggested that it increased cell replication by 25 to 30 percent which were related to silybin and silychristin, two important components of silymarin. '
3. Astaxanthin (In animal study) :
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0041010124002368?via=ihub
A relevant quote from the above study link :
' Astaxanthin demonstrates significant renoprotective effects against lithium-induced nephrotoxicity, suggesting its utility as an effective adjunctive therapy. Through its potent antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic actions, astaxanthin effectively reduces renal damage associated with lithium treatment, underscoring its potential for enhancing renal health in patients receiving lithium therapy. '
It is worth mentioning that astaxanthin has a very good safety profile in humans at tested dosing of 24 mg/day in human studies. Previously I have written about another important health benefit of astaxanthin that your husband may be interested in, here :
https://www.earthclinic.com/supplements/astaxanthin-for-endurance.html
So all of the above mentioned supplements would require your husband's doctor's approval and supervision to insure his safety and compatibility with all of the medications he is taking.
Please keep us updated on your husband's progress.

Pain Relief & Healing With Ginger Powder After Radiation For Tongue Cancer
2 days agoI had surgery and radiation for tongue cancer 3 years ago and there's spots in my tongue that hadn't healed. My surgery and radiation left me with dry mouth from destroying the salivary glands under my tongue and spots that constantly burned and were so painful. I'd read in here about ginger being anti inflammatory and had my husband take it for his sciatica. I started drinking ginger tea and it soothed my tongue a little. About three weeks ago I tried just putting the dry ginger powder in the agonizingly painful spots and have continued with about 3 doses a day since. My pain level is way down, it's helped me get more saliva from the upper gland and I really think the spots are finally healing. Thanks earth clinic for everything you've helped me and my husband with.

2 days agoTaking Walter Last's Borax Concentration - Causing Throat Irritation
2 days agoHi. I love your information and so grateful I stumbled across it. I have a couple of questions about Borax as I have terrible arthritis/trigger finger and difficulty holding things. I believe I should be using borax but made up the solution in your video and I'm taking 1 teaspoonful twice daily in a glass of water or yoghurt but it's causing discomfort in my throat. Can you recommend a good brand and should I start smaller please?also my hubby has had chronic kidney disease for 16 years and due to meds now has osteoporosis. I would love him to use it but unsure whether it's too late for him. His EGFR is 28 and creatinine is 220. Anyone help would be a blessing. Thank you
Cayenne for Cuts
2 days agoHave used Cayenne Pepper to heal cuts that would not stop bleeding. First one healed so well it's hard to find the scar. Cut my finger around the holidays 1/4 inch deep, 1/2 inch wide and didn't want stitches as my hand would be useless for holiday season of cooking. The blood mixed with the CP as I dunked my finger into a pile of CP to get everything coated and it formed a hard shell. It came off when I carefully washed my hand a few days later and then I reapplied it the same way and the hard shell formed again. It fell off on its own when it fully healed a week or two later. In the mean time, my hand was fully functional. To keep using it, all I had to do was add a bandage the CP application and wear a glove to cook and it was good as new. Currently my finger is cut. Same finger different spot. CP again as it would not stop bleeding. 1/4 inch deep, 1/4 inch wide on an angle. Put a bandage on over the applied CP then wrapped some tape around for compression to seal the wound. It stings a few minutes then nothing. Can use my hand otherwise. Super thankful for CP!

Iodine Nasal Rinse for Sinus Infections
3 days agoI also use nasal sprayers in my daily health regimen, usually a fine-mist nasal sprayer using mineral water + 4 drops 5% Lugols Iodine + approx 1/8 tspn sea salt. This protocol helps to both disinfect as well as moisten the nasal, mouth and throat regions. I would never use Povidone Iodine(PI) internally because this form of iodine is essentially bonded to a plastic atom that is derived from crude oil. It's OK to use PI externally if you must but PI should not be supplemented internally in any shape or form. Always use the original 5% Lugols Iodine if you are taking iodine internally.
My main daily protocol -- using a modern day neti bottle -- helps to directly disinfect my sinuses, nasal cavities, nasopharynx(area behind the nose), throat and mouth regions. I use a modern 300ml neti bottle with a V shaped plastic nozzle. You simply add mineral water + 1/2 tspn salt + 5 drops of 5% Lugols Iodine to the neti bottle then tip it upside down and, after pressing the button on the bottom of the bottle, water is allowed to flow freely into your nostril like a modern neti pot. I also find the modern neti bottle much easier to use than the older porcelain neti pot, which I have also used in the past. I now use both the nasal sprayer and my neti bottle every single day as protection from dangerous viruses and bacteria.
I also live in the tropics and use aircon at night which always tends to dry up my nose, mouth and throat regions causing me to wake up frequently thereby interfering with my sleep. So this is another reason for me to use the neti bottle and my nasal sprayer which help to suitably dampen all nose/throat/mouth areas so that I can get my precious sleep. Apart from using Lugols Iodine in my nasal sprayer and modern neti bottle, I have also substituted and used Xylitol or Hydrogen Peroxide instead of Lugols Iodine in both my nasal sprayer and neti bottle protocols.
And please don't ask me where I purchased my neti bottle because I bought it from a local online retailer in the Philippines(where I live) called Lazada -- which isn't going to be much use to you if you live in Europe or the US.
I tried to include a jpeg image of my 300ml neti bottle in this post using copy and paste but, unfortunately, pasting images is not allowed. So here is a link to Amazon showing the type of neti bottle that I use now:
Re: Cabbage for Lymphedema
3 days agoI had my son 25 years ago. I did not breastfeed him and he was a grazer. He was 9lbs, a week late and scored a perfect 10 on his apgar tests at the hospital.
my nurse at the hospital told me that I needed my husband to go to the grocery store and buy a big round regular cabbage ok…Ummm what? She said freeze the big leaves. No other special treatment flattening, boiling whatever < it does not need to be so complicated. Freeze individual leaves. Take 2 out at a time and place in bra. Frozen. That worked amazingly fast. I think it took maybe 3 days and it was all done.
I've been battling with neuropathy and edema for almost 5 years. My roommate's mom is 97 and her legs are so swollen that they are leaking. I started checking into the lymphatic system. I really didn't know what it was for except to check the ones in throat area when my kid was sick and if someone gets cancer the first thing people ask is if it's in the lymph nodes it's pretty much a death sentence. I have been taking homeopathic drops and capsules, stopped all prescriptions for pain and neuropathy and all of those things went away. It's not excess water retention from too much salt. It's my lymphatic system was clogged up. I can eat salty foods and not swell up. I stopped all neuropathy meds ~ tried 3 different ones and the pain is almost gone. No more stabbing shooting pain in my feet.
my legs still swell occasionally but nobody notices and then just yesterday it occurred to me about the breast feeding thing. If it free that out then why not try it on my legs ~ if for no other reason than to help my friend's mom? Leaving to get cabbage in a few and try it. I'm not going to smash it up or anything. Just use it the way I did before. Hope it works and thank you for sharing your experiences! Praying that it helps relieve some of her discomfort

3 days ago@ Mike (Athens)
Yes… you can put boric acid in a nasal spray bottle. Be sure to adjust dilution ratio.
In the pre-antibiotic era (before 1940) borid acid derived from boron, both were front line defense against microb's. Possessing antibiotic properties against both fungal and bacterial infections.
A good book to read that is free on google books is “Borax the Magic Crystal 1915”. It will teach you how our Grandparents used boron.
