Good afternoon to all, my name is Dan and I was surfing the web for some information on a foot topic and came across your web site. I enjoy your site very much. I also enjoy what others have to say about how they "over came" things as well.
Regards,
Mr. D. Cahill

Thanks for the information Deirdre and I know that you are awfully busy! The same here..... Yes, notify this member would be a terrific help as I have noticed that I am not the only one often struggling with the fact that I can't get clarification on some issues like the use of iodine for basel cell carcinoma. Without the information whether one needs to take it or to apply nothing can be done. But..... Don't worry, one thing at a time! Do you konw what we say in Portugal? Roma and Pavia were not made in one day!

Hi Francisca,
To answer your question: Yes, but only if the person has added their original post to their "watched post" list (and given EC permission to email them). If they choose not to "watch" their own post, they won't get notified. I guess the next step is to add a "contact this member" option like on other forums, but we need to get the new design (plus ebooks, plus ipad apps, etc.) launched first!
Carly - no worries about the thumbs up icon. I thought it was a great idea too!
Take care,
Deirdre

Hi Francisca -
I just wanted to say that I enjoy your posts very much - and I am sure you are not a pain in a "bad" way. (Hey - at least you were not the one who suggested the catastrophic "thumbs up" button).
<;-x arrrrrrgh! Still regret that.
Deidre - Thanks for this new "following a thread" option, it will be great. I will have to start signing in now, but it will be awesome. Very cool.

This is really great news, Deirdre..... And sorry if sometimes I am such a pain (in the positive sense, I hope.... ). But does the option also notifies the person who posted the comment to start with so that the person knows someone needs to contact them? I have struggled a few times lately because of not being able to contact someone who posted something of real interest to me but didn't answer my questions and people have said the same thing about me, the reason being that I never saw their posting (I tend to be away quite a bit.... and although I try to keep up when I get back if you have a lot of comments to go through sometimes you miss a few)! Or maybe the solution would be to click on the eye every time we post something ourselves....

Website Questions

My wife thought someone here might be able to answer these questions since she couldn't.
1 Some people here mix the vinegar with molasses. Does the vinegar still work to balance the pH of the body or does it need to be taken alone?
2 We have soem ctiric acid lying around for canning that is two to three years old. Does it have an expiration? How would I know it has gone bad? Sometimes we can't get tons of lemon or limes to make the pH drinks for entire family.
3 I've read Ted say here that he recommends a vegetarian diet and that meat isn't too good for us, except for the amino acids it has. I don't want to depend too much on supplements in case codex alimentarius is true and I can't get my hands on good quality supplements. Do you think it might be wise to supplement with a little local grassfed seafood and meat like the Chinese do (to flavor their dishes) to ensure we don't get a B12 or amino acid deficiencies?
Thanks to anyone who can answer

Hello, I came across your site several weeks ago and spent hours reading all of the information it contained regarding coconut oil and health ailments. It was very eye opening and I learned a ton.
I've used coconut oil for years in my homemade hand and foot creams, body gloss and hair moisturizers and it's fabulous.
I just turned my readers onto your page and want to say thanks again for sharing such great information!

I've been searching for causes of spleen pain, low energy, extremely high cholesterol and vitamin d deficiency for months. I just spent my first 4 - hour visit to this site and am overwhelmed with all the wonderful information here. Tomorrow, I investigate the Pets section. I'll be back often; I am totally enthralled.

Great Website! Great information! So glad I found it. This is better than any health book I could buy. Universally tested cures and or remedies create confidence in the use of them. I will visit this site often and will contribute financially to this website accordingly if I find it to be helpful in resolving any health issues that my family may have. I'm not a registered user but I wanted to say Thank you and that I am excited about finding this website.

Well, I for one did not know what DMSO is. There are so many acronyms tossed about these days it is helpful to at least know what it is you are talking about. Also, the more information you provide as to what it is used as a treatment for will be much more likely to get a response. I found this website that discusses DMSO [ dimethylsulfoxide ] as a treatment for a number of serious ailments:

Wondering if you're going to get a tab for DMSO alone? Also, I've written quite a few questions and feedback and never has it been posted. Am I doing something wrong or do you pick and choose what gets posted?
Thanks
EC: There actually is a section for DMSO under supplements. Also, if you do a search for your name and location in the upper right box, you will find your posts.

I am addicted to your website. I go to it a couple of times a day and when I am at work, I think of something and can't wait until I get home to research it on Earth Clinic. Thank you so much for a wonderful site where I have found many helpful remedies.

I'm not sure how well this will go down, but I'd like to make a suggestion apologies to those who find this in bad taste.
I recently had some UFOs (Unidentified Floating Objects) along with my bowel movements and a google search of the description led me to a site called poop report. The comments on this site were mostly random nonsense, however some were quite informative and others were absolutely hilarious.
My suggestion is that we could start a page here for folk to anonymously share any unusual / worrying goings on in the toilet department. Where questions such as - is it normal, is it serious, is it IBS or is it fungus etc. could be answered.
Just thought I'd put it out there.

I just want to start by saying that, I LOVE THIS SITE!!! This site is the best!!! So many times it has saved my life... I first discovered this site when I was looking for a natural cure for a sinus infection..... And I found the Neti Pot... Which by the way I had NEVER heard of!!! And I was cured and every since I look up everything on this site... I believe that there is a natural way to solve anything that is wrong with you without taking any type of "man made" pills.... I believe and swear by ACV!!! This is the cure all!!! I have used ACV to lose weight.... I use it to clean my face... I use it when I have a sore throat.... I use it to douche.... And I found out today by taking this wonderful natural product that I cleared up my allergies!! I also use it in the kitchen to clean meat before cooking it... It is the best ever!! I am on this site everyday and I really want to send out Peace and Blessings to everyone on this site for taking the time to help one another with their health issues.... It is a beautiful thing!! I was on the site today looking for my mom who has discovered that she has ulcers.... And I do not think that medication is the only way to go.... I am a 40 year old woman who use to swear by pills when I was young... Now the older I get the more I realize that alot of medications clear up one thing and cause something else to break down.... So I would rather find a natural cure... I will say that the natural cure takes a little longer... But I am never in a rush!! Once again I want to thank everyone on this site for all their wonderful insite and I wish everyone Peace, Health, and Blessings!!! :)
On Rolling Thunder Prayer
Posted by Francisca (Michelbach-le-bas, Alsace, France) on 07/12/2011
Crann Maor, I do hope that you are right and that we are at a breaking point and things in this planet will change for the better. Unfortunately my gut feeling is that we will go on like this for a long time to come! I don't know what it will take for people to realise that this is not the way to go and do something about it! The other day I was talking to a cousin of mine during a wonderful few days in my home country and he said that the change won't come until people are prepared to make really big changes. I think that he is right..... And I feel that it will take a very long time for people to find the strength to do that! For the time being I only see the world going more and more down hill! But then..... It is us as a whole that vote for these regimes that help nobody..... Each one we put there seems to be worse than the previous one and that is a pattern being repeateted all over the world!
Maybe people need to realise that you can't look after the whole world, make things better at home and leave the rest to do it themselves as well!

On Rolling Thunder Prayer

The other day I watched a documentary on how the pacific rainforest in the united states was being cut down. At one point in the film I saw the image of trees falling and crashing to the ground. Something I did not expect happened to me while sitting there watching images of a forest gone, and mighty giants falling down.
Something came over me this deep, deep sadness, as those trees fell, I fell felt them dying one by one, I felt their anguish. For two or three hours I cried and sobbed and felt this horrible pain and anguish like something I never have experienced before, it was trully soul wrenching. I realized after this point to not forget those beautiful trees and to celebrate them, and to celebrate life, the plants, the birds, the animals, other people, fish and anything unmentioned. Life is to experience, to be happy, to love, and be thankful!
I realized at that point that anything I do as a human being will effect everyone and everything. We are here to make the planet beautiful, that all the problems of the world can be solved and that we can really do it. I think we are at a turning point. I can feel it deep in my heart, the point between when this reality falls away and the a new one is born. This prayer is simple and true It speaks to my soul, a prayer like this is a map to guide all life back to the origin.
Many Thanks, Much laughter, Much Joy, Much Peace, and Much love

Anton, if I were you I wouldn't worry so much about possibly answering a very old question. The person who posted it might not be coming to the site anymore but you might just happen to help someone else, who knows? A lot of us have the same problems so one answer might help a lot of people!
