Garlic and Cats
6 days agoA few more notes on garlic and thiosulfate. All the sources that I have seen do not explain the supposed toxicity to cats. AI does not report any cats harmed by it. There are people completely panicked and asking web vets for help, just because their cat "may have" chewed on a clove, or actually at one. The vets said that it would take 3-6 cloves to cause problems, and that the ingestion would need to be chronic. Also, the AI says that thiosulfate is not toxic, but used as a poison antidote. Unless I see more convincing info, I don't believe this to be an issue in practical terms. To urge cat owners to go to ER immediately upon ingesting a bit seems irresponsible.
Here is another answer from AI: "Based on the available research, thiosulfate appears to be generally well tolerated in cats. There is no evidence to suggest that thiosulfate has inherent toxicity to cats. In fact, thiosulfate is often used to treat cyanide poisoning in animals, including cats, as it helps convert cyanide into thiocyanate, reducing its toxic effects."
Wet Table Salt Cures Skin Cancer
6 days agoHi Rob,
Thank you for sharing this post, very interesting research regarding salt and skin cancer.
Years ago I developed a sarcoma on my left medial ankle bone, extremely painful. At the time, I did not know it was cancer, I thought it was maybe fungal. So, I applied a salt pack several times daily which resolved the lesion. I was surprised.
Fast forward, a year or two later the sarcoma reappeared and became aggressive and began to extend up my calf. Amputation was suggested (absolutely not). I forgot about the salt (and did not know it addressed cancer). I came up with other remedies that resolved the cancer (essential oils - the main treatment, various supplements, diet, prayer). The doctors were more than surprised and even upset!
I wonder what would have happened if I had incorporated the salt packs.
A Naturopath tested the calf/ankle area and discovered that a couple of parasitic infections (picked up in Japan, Maui and Arizona) caused the lesion in addition to fungus. Some of the treatments I used also addressed these conditions.
Of interest, salt treatments have historically been used to address various parasitic issues.
There is a couple that have a website where they post their successful treatment of Lyme & co-infections (including parasites) with what they call the "Salt & Vitamin C Remedy":
~1/4 tsp of salt (purified) + 3 grams L-ascorbic acid + 1 cup water, 4X/day. Or, 1 gram of salt/10 pounds of body weight, 18-20 grams of salt/day, minimum 8 grams/day, maximum 24 grams/day. Considering that the half life of Vitamin C is around 2 hours, it is actually best to take smaller doses more often throughout the day say, 1/16 - 1/8 tsp salt with 1-2 gram Vit C, 8X/day. They note one can take it with food if needed.
It is very important to be very hydrated during treatment; and, to know that many salt sources are contaminated with mold, mycotoxins and even heavy metals such as lead, so only use a safe source of salt.
They had many herxheimer reactions which occurred in cycles during the 1.5 - 2 year treatment. They noted many different types of parasites, worms and mites came out of the stool, urine, skin, nose and eyes and they posted the photos (lymephotos.com).
Warm regards,
Sherri
Re: Colloidal Silver
6 days agoHi Debbie,
You may find the following study that used colloidal silver nanoparticles in humans (medical staff) as a preventative against SARS CoV2/Covid-19, informative, as opposed to someone giving their opinion on YouTube :
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8375774/
Here is a relevant study quote :
' We present a prospective randomized study of 231 participants that was carried out for 9 weeks (during the declaration of a pandemic). The "experimental" group was instructed to do mouthwash and nose rinse with the AgNPs solution; the "control" group was instructed to do mouthwashes and nose rinse in a conventional way. The incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was significantly lower in the "experimental" group (two participants of 114, 1.8%) compared to the "control" group (thirty-three participants of 117, 28.2%), with an 84.8% efficiency. We conclude that the mouth and nasal rinse with AgNPs helps in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection in health personnel who are exposed to patients diagnosed with COVID-19. '
I chose this study because they used the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in a similar manner to how you are using it, in the nose, but they also simultaneously used it in the mouth as a mouthwash. As you can see, the AgNPs were quite effective with only two of 114 participants actually getting Covid-19 over the study period of 9 weeks.
I hope you find this information useful and relevant to your use of AgNPs.

Re: Severe Colitis
6 days agoDear Earth clinic,
I still have urgency, bleeding, pus. I still cant eat because every bit of food or supplements touches the open wound/ulcers on the intestines, increases the wound and its not healing. Thank you for the remedies. Please send more remedies to try. I am so weak from lack of iron, nutrition and dehydrating, and being in the bathroom all the time. I barely get to lie down to sleep. I have entire body comorbidities, and the colitis is making everything worse, my lower legs and feet are losing partial circulation and are freezing cold to the touch, and feet are turning dark pink. They warm up only with heating pad on them. Sitting on the toilet for such a long time is making them worse.
I did not try chlorine dioxide yet, I dont have the energy to watch Dr Kalckers video right now. If I order pre made CDS, can I just put 1 drop in a cup of water and drink that once a day, while the internal wounds are still open? I did not try ozone insufflation, I can only do home treatments of any kind. I don't know if I can do liver/gallbladder flushes because I am nearly bedridden for a few years now, because of untreated lyme, so my body and organs aren't working well. I did get a grounding mat yesterday, I will try that soon. If anyone can please read and watch Elliot Overton for me, please let me know what he suggests for active, bleeding colitis. I watched for a few minutes, he sounds amazing, but I am too exhausted to keep reading and watching. I have MTHFR so I need methylated vitamins, please recommend a brand of methylated b vitamins. I am using cayenne powder in the 1 cup of chicken broth that is my only food daily now. Is it ok if I eat a black garlic clove instead of raw garlic? As my antibiotic? Thank you
Re: Iodine Painting for Sinus Infection
6 days agoRe: Iodine Painting for Sinus Infection
6 days agoI'm sure Lugols 2% (water based) will work. If it doesn't, switch back to Tincture of Iodine (yellow/red alcohol based). In my life time, I've always used Tincture of Iodine for Painting Lymph-nodes. It's just something I was taught by my Grandmother and have continued to do. She always had a little 1oz. bottle in her medicine cabinet.
Iodine kills 90 percent of bacteria on the skin within 90 seconds, its use as an antibiotic has been ignored. Iodine exhibits activity against bacteria, molds, yeasts, protozoa, and many viruses; indeed, of all antiseptic preparations suitable for direct use on humans and animals and upon tissues, only iodine is capable of killing all classes of pathogens: gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi, yeasts, viruses and protozoa. Most bacteria are killed within 15 to 30 seconds of contact.
Iodine is by far the best antibiotic, antiviral and antiseptic of all time – Dr. David Derry
Iodine has bactericidal activity:
- 1% tincture will kill 90% of bacteria in 90 seconds
- 5% tincture in 60 seconds
- 7% tincture in 15 seconds
Gershenfeld, 1968
Iodine kills single celled organisms by combining with the amino acids tyrosine or histidine when they are exposed to the extra-cellular environment. All single cells showing tyrosine on their outer cell membranes are killed instantly by a simple chemical reaction with iodine that denatures proteins. Nature and evolution have given us an important mechanism to control pathogenic life forms and we should use it and trust it to protect us in ways that antibiotics can't.
Iodine kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, and even spores of bacteria and fungi, including anthrax spores. Iodine was used successfully against influenza, herpes, small pox, and chicken pox viruses. Kills parasites, bacteria, mold, yeast, protozoa, viruses--essentially all pathogens including malaria, E. coli, and Staphylococcus. When iodine was suspended in a solution, viral inactivation occurred at dilutions of 1/1,000,000. (Gershenfeld, L.: Iodine. In Disinfection, Sterilization, and Preservation. Edited by S. S. Block. Philadelphia, Les & Febiger, 1977, pp. 196-218.)

6 days agolove it, Rob!
Do you think Lugols iodine painted on would work just as well as an alcohol tincture? Was yours the yellow or clear version?
I've used 2% Lugols iodine painted on kids' throats and it's gotten rid of sore throats within a day or so. I wasn't sure if it was actually working at the time, or just placebo :)

6 days agoGarlic and Cats
7 days agoArt, when I ask if there is real evidence that garlic harms pets, I am asking for actual cases of damage. I have a bad experience with "official sources." Sad, I know. But there it is. Has a cat ever died from eating garlic? Or from being fed garlic as a dewormer? (I have been intending to deworm the stray that recently adopted me.)
They say that thiosulfate harms red blood cells. Why would this damage only cat (or dog) red blood cells and not anyone else's? Baffled.
Garlic and Cats
7 days agoHi Vera,
There are quite a few articles on the web from known sources discussing how garlic and other members of the allium family such as onions is toxic to dogs and cats because of its thiosulfate content. On the other hand, thiosulfate is not toxic to humans. Some of you may remember thiosulfate as a remedy that Ted often used for humans. Here are a couple of example articles with this first one being from the American Kennel Club (AKC) :
https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/nutrition/can-dogs-eat-garlic/
https://bottletreeanimalhospital.com/blog/what-should-i-do-if-my-dog-eats-garlic/
Here is a relevant quote from their article :
' Yes, garlic is potentially dangerous to dogs. This is because garlic and related plants such as onions are toxic to dogs. Garlic can cause anemia and signs of toxicity when eaten in high enough amounts. All forms of garlic are potentially toxic to dogs. These forms of garlic include ':
- Raw garlic
- Cooked garlic
- Garlic powder
- Garlic paste
- Pickled garlic
- Liquid garlic
- Garlic oil
- Any food with any type of garlic in it
https://www.petmd.com/cat/poisoning/can-cats-eat-garlic
A relevant article quote :
'Whether cooked or raw, garlic is toxic to cats, and your pet should never eat it in any form, including :
-
Garlic cloves
-
Jarred minced garlic
-
Garlic powders and salts
-
All homemade or prepackaged foods containing garlic (including baby foods and broths) '
' Garlic is a bulbous vegetable belonging to the genus Allium, which also includes onions, chives, and leeks. None of these should ever be included in your cat's diet or treats. '
' Garlic contains a toxic compound called sodium n-propyl thiosulfate. This toxin causes damage to red blood cells, making them fragile and leading to their breakdown and destruction (hemolysis). Hemolysis results in anemia in addition to red or brown urine discoloration. Anemia means the body's organs are no longer getting enough oxygen and, in severe cases, can result in organ failure and death. '
'Garlic poisoning can become life-threatening and should be treated as a medical emergency. If your cat ingests garlic, take them to the vet immediately. Do not wait until they are acting sick. '
Animals are a gift from the angelic realm that we can learn from, and they can not tell us when they are sick or in distress so it seems worthwhile for us to exercise as much caution as is possible in what we feed or give to them to eat.
