Sodium and Potassium Citrate, Sodium and Potassium Carbonate
Posted by Carolyn (Hobbs, Nm Usa) on 09/18/2009
Confusion of products, please help!!
I am so confused. What is the difference in sodium citrate and sodium carbonate? What is the difference in potassium citrate and potassium carbonate? Potassium citrate is easy to find but I can't find sodium citrate in the health food stores. Sodium bicarbonate is easy to find. Is it the same as sodium citrate?
Thanks, Carolyn

Posted by Carolyn (Hobbs, Nm, USA) on 09/18/2009
I am still trying to locate my products I need. Is the kind of sodium citrate you use the kind you find in foods. Some of the powdered forms say for crafts. Also I can only find the potassium citrate in capsules. How many capsules would it take to equal 1/4 t.? I really need help with this. Thanks, Carolyn
Apple Cider Vinegar
Posted by Jaques (Brighton, England) on 09/08/2009
its recommended to take your ACV on an empty stomach, so could anyone tell me why then do many people who take it on their meals, i.e. on the salad, have no adverse affects? Does this suggest that drinking it with the bicarb and water and then eating a meal would be ok - this is confusing me a bit.
I have been on acv for GERD which helps for a year but i notice it hasnt brought down my high BP which i am considering taking h202 for, but again, it is on empty stomach - does anyone know if you can mix the two?
Apple Cider Vinegar and Supplements
Posted by Linda (Indianapolis, In, United States) on 09/04/2009
ACV's impact on other supplements question
Will ACV interfere with or negate the benefits of taking other supplements such as fish oil, vitamin E, Rhodiola, DHEA, flaxseed, etc? Should I take the supplements a few hours before or after ingesting ACV?
Apple Cider Vinegar, Baking Soda, H2O2
Posted by Jaques (Brighton, England) on 07/15/2009
I take acv & bicarb soda twice a day on empty stomach - now ive decided to take h202 as well as i have hi BP and colestorol, questions for anyone is, does anyone mix the two? Or would H202 help the GERD so I dont have to take both? I cant imagine first taking one medication, then waiting an hour, taking the other, wait another hour and then i can eat breakfast - x 3 per day -
Also i just took the lst dosage 30 drops of 3% food grade in water, since its 3 drops of 35%, so I was told to increase it ll times. It has made my mouth, throat, aesophagus and stomach burn slightly and still is an hr later............does anyone else have this reaction? Or if Ted can comment on this dosage and reaction I would be grateful. Thanks all..........J

Posted by Echorae (Linesville, Pa., USA) on 08/19/2009
I'm on hydrogen Peroxide Therapy. My question is can one mix ACV and baking soda w/honey to the mixture? I've read that the ACV and baking soda w/honey should be taken on an empty stomach too. Thought if it's OK, I'd combine them together. Has anyone done this, and if so what was your reaction.

Ted posted an answer to this question, it took me 4 hours to find it and I think it should also be placed here for those who are wondering about hydrogen peroxide to the ACV and baking soda solution.
ADD HYDROGEN PEROXIDE?
02/08/2007: Fran from Houston, TX writes: "Can I add few drops of good grade hydrogen peroxide to the ACV and baking soda solution, twice a day? Thanks"
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "No. Hydrogen peroxide will neutralize the vitamin C and other organic compounds in the apple cider vinegar. It is best taken for hydrogen peroxide with water alone, or at least 6 hours apart.
The reason is simple, hydrogen peroxide is an oxidant, while apple cider vinegar and baking soda is an antioxidant.
You can however, mix drops of hydrogen peroxide with baking soda in a drinking water. It creates a more alkaline form of peroxides which can also detoxify the body of accumulated poisons built up in the liver.

Thank you for this. I was wondering what would happen if I combined the ACV with H2O2 also.
H2O2 Therapy, Lime-Sodium Bicarbonate
Posted by Michael (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) on 07/15/2009
Hi,
I just started the H2O2 regime. I read that I can add it to water, milk or fruit juice. Does this include fruit juice that I buy from the supermarket or is it only freshly prepared juice? Can I add sugar to it?
I am also interested to try lime-sodium bicarbonate mixture for pH balance.
Is it possible to mix H2O2 and the mixture together so that it can be drunk at one time.

H2O2 Therapy, Lime-Sodium Bicarbonate
Posted by Tavora (Brooklyn, NY) on 07/16/2009
I read in a book called ___that its best not to mix H2O2 in anything other than distilled water. The author explained since spring water or "hard" water contains minerals and other elements - the distilled water ensures the H2O2 does react or is "lost" by these compounds.... I don't know about mixing the lime/baking soda w/ H2O2 but I've been drinking food grade 12% H202 w/ distilled water these past few weeks - as well as lemon/baking soda (but w/ spring water on alternate days) and have experienced a fairly good (and consistent) alkaline pH reading. Good luck!

You probably want to use fresh juice, don't waste your money on dead, pasteurized, watered down, sugary supermarket juice. Milk tends to cause congestion, so you probably want to avoid that too. If you can afford it, vegetable/fruit juicers are great, you can make your own juice from carrots, celery, apples, and such. I would think that since fruits and vegetables naturally contain H202 it would be ok to add it to the fresh juice. But I'm not an expert.

I use 35% food grade and I find mixing it with 100% pure apple juice bought from the store kills a lot of the bleach taste and I have read a lot of articles about when to take it and what to use while distilled water is the prefered method, 100% pure juice and milk is also ok to use.

Hydrogen peroxide to the ACV and baking soda solution.
If Ted could take a look at this section and clarify it for some people that would be great. in his list he does NOT mention the combinination of Apple Cider Vinegar, with baking soda and HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, I found it in another section and placed it copied it.

I love this website soooo much! I have a question for everyone: Is there a "tonic" that I can take every morning that includes many of the herbs, spices, etc. that are mentioned here? Would any of them interact badly with each other or not works as well? Here is my list of things I want to put in one drink in the morning and possibly before bed. Would this work?
2 tbsp organic apple cider vinegar
1 tsp organic honey
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
Would you change any of the measurements or add or take anything out? Thanks!

Hi Becky - I make a tonic-like drink that incorporates pretty much all the ingredients you have listed. I copied it from my father. He doesn't use Turmeric or ACV. (No particular reason just preference I guess) but I do.....in addition to 6-8 cloves of garlic, (1) type of dark green leafy veggie (kale, spinach, dandelion, etc) nutmeg, bee pollen, ground flax seed, oats, wheat germ and the list goes on (these are some of his main ingredients).....w/ the exception of the greens and distilled/spring water. He either uses apple cider or plain apple juice as his base.
I say go right ahead and make your tonic! Just be sure to pay attention to how you feel. I know on my really bad days -and as of late- .they've been tough - this little drink brings me SO MUCH relief. Even when my blood pressure was at its highest (156/96) or borderline (135/85) - it helped bring it down to a normal reading (and I mean normal: 106/70!) Sometimes I even substitute it as a meal because it's SO FILLING. To me all the ingredients are of great benefit but I believe the cayenne is exceptional. I love using it because of its synergistic properties. Whatever you use or blend it with (particularly herbs and also garlic) it can greatly enhance the efficiency/performance of the ingredients!
The benefits I've experienced have been:
-Relief from muscle aches and pains
-Normalized BP (garlic and cayenne!)
-Consistent bowels
-Lower cholesterol (did blood work to confirm.wheat germ and oats)
-Tames athlete's feet (garlic!)
-Nail/hair strengthening
-Skin is smoother and softer (flax seed!)
-Decreased cravings for sweets
-Increased immune function
-Stable blood sugar (cinnamon!)
-Increased energy
-Increased pH/alkalinity (garlic, lemon, green leafies)
-And so much more..

This ia a reply to Becky from Cedar Springs. I was thinking of your ingredients list and I also wanted to get the best mix for me, Maybe this might help?
You could try two drinks, one in the morning, and one at night,
Morning...into a glass of tomato juice add, 1tsp turmeric, Pinch of cayenne(or as much as you can handle), ground pepper, 1 tbsp cider vinegar, crushed garlic, and honey if needed.
In the evening before bed, into a cup of heated milk add, 1tbsp honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon to taste, a little ginger is quite nice too,
Hope this is of some help :)

this is a reply to becky and debbie- you might want to read this
https://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/turmeric.html and add the tumeric to your milk drink for better absorption. I'm thinking to do the same. Also becky, you definitely should add a tsp of coconut oil to your plan, it works wonders for skin and energy. I also like maca for balance, but am not so keen on the taste! Good luck!
ACV, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Coconut Oil
Posted by Harmony74 (Oceanport , NJ) on 06/22/2009
I was wondering, can I take grapefruit seed extract and apple cider vinegar together, well not at the exact same time but together in one day ? I am taking 15 drops of GSE 4 times a day (I have athlets foot and allergies) and 2tbs ACV in a liter of water a day(am going to reduce to 2 tsp in 16 oz of water in about a week), and I am also taking 3 tbs of coconut oil a day. Is all this together (taken throughout different times of the day) ok ? I concerned about on cancelling out the other, among other things, Im new at this Thanks!

For your feet, Just use a cup of Clorox, Bleach in a pan of warm water, and soak them for about 10 or 15 minutes a couple times during the week and your Athletes Feet will be gone!! Buy new shoes and always wear white socks, and your problems will be gone. Bleach will kill the fungus.

Mix 3 cups of white vinegar with a buckle of hot water, add a drop of soap. Then soap for 20-30 mins for 3-5 days. Rinse it. It will cure the atheles feet. It is also good for the skin. Soaping feet before bed is a Chinese anient method for all health purpose. Use a spray bottle for the vinegar water to spray inside the shoes.

Dont Want to do too much of a "good thing" -in 2005 I, a healthy older woman had family negative situations occur when over worked and weary that brought on very high amounts of stress - resulting in physical and mental (depression) reactions - acute burn out -30 years prior in the early 70's - I had a similar situation -overwork - lots of stress that but that was from raisihg 4 children alone - anxiety where an internal medical Dr prescribed valiumns - which later I became severly addicted to - but I was able to through Prayer - overcome / when this happened in 2005 - I was rather shocked as I had had no stress nor depression for about 25 yearrs - go did get a physical and found no physcial problem as I knew the sysmptons were stress related - but this time -began slowing down -quit smokin - researched vitamins and again through prayer and God's grace all has progressively gotten got better - -probably the stress symptoms has brought on a lot of toxins which need to be cleansed as recently I somehow - got scabies which were horribly painful which tea-tree oil soaks in the bath water has defeated but then right after scabies ended hives came on - which the ACV & AlumFree Baking Soad has almost cleared up - so after reading about all of these incredible remedies on your site - is truly a God sent - dont want to overdo things and take too much -

Fulvic Acid Combination
Posted by Sam (Boston, MA) on 05/26/2009
Hello Ted and everybody at Earthclinic. Thank you for everything. I really appreciate all the information that you make available to us. My question is regarding one of the remedy combinations that Ted has explained, explanation #7, regarding Fulvic acid. I decided to invest in Fulvic Acid after reading the information posted by Ted. I have tried a number of remedies and as a result, I now have a large box full of supplements, vitamins, essential oils, etc. I think that I will eventually find something that works for me. For that, I have decided to give Fulvic Acid a fair chance to work its magic. In one of Ted's old posts, he explains that Fulvic acid works better when combined with hydrogen peroxide and sodium bicarbonate, so here is what I have been doing: I mix 2 tablespoons of ACV with 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda and allow it to react for 10 minutes, I then add 1 teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide and 1/3 cup of Fulvic Acid. I have been taking this for about one week for severe acne and other conditions and also for balancing my pH. I believe that it is too soon to say whether it is working. But I want to make sure that the remedy itself is correct. I don't mean to impose, I understand that you get hundreds of emails everyday, but if you could please let me know if this mix is correct, I would appreciate feedback from Ted or anyone else who has used Fulvic Acid. Thank you in advance.
