I'm using the Jarrow Brand, OptiMSM. Sorry, went back and reread the rat study it actually said there were NO subchronic effects at 1.5gm/kg. How fast were you able to move up in dosage? It seems like she is having alot of stomach discomfort by the end of the day after the 3-1 gram doses. She could be experiencing some late radiation effects to her bowels or still possibly battling some C.Diff she caught in the hospital though, hard to tell. She has been on it for 2 weeks now. She has been through a skin redness and heat detox phase that lasted for about 5 days when I increased her dose to her current dosage. I asked the study director about initial detox reactions but he didn't answer my questions about that. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Weldon, yes, shilajit is soluble, and that's how it is purified from the host rock. It is fulvic and humic acid-based. Inorganic minerals rely on their ionization in the gut, which may occur but if you don't know how good bowel ecology is, go with the humic/fulvics. all good, Duncan > > Hi everyone, I am treating my daughter for a rare form of a CNS cancer that chemo won't touch (of course chemo is junk anyway). We have already done radiation recently so it is now up to me to completely get rid of her cancer. I actually contacted the gentleman in charge of the 12 year MSM study and he told me to give her 3 tablespoons per day (but I did not give him her size which is 30lb, but I know the 1.5gm/kg limit) as this is what cured his son of testicular cancer. Through my MSM research I came across some of McCabe's work on flooding your body with oxygen. The MSM, in only 2 weeks of 3 grams per day, has done so much for her that there has got to be something to this. McCabe advocates adding some form of ionic trace minerals. There seems to be competing ideas on the internet. I really need something that is in liquid form as she cannot take pills due to her age and genetic condition. I've seen Duncan's recommendation of Shilajit but not sure if that can be liquefied and how would it compare? I am down to looking at a concentrated fulvic acid(which has some anti-cancer research) and the Trace Minerals Brand Concentrace drops. I am open to suggestions, sorry for the long post. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 If you drop the shilajit I have from http://therootofthematter.net in water it dissipates without even hitting the bottom of the glass. For someone who wasn't taking minerals, a single cap a day would be therapeutic. The dose is listed at 1-6 capsules per day but 6 seems a bit much to me. I use one cap but I just swallow the cap without dumping it into food. all good, Duncan >> Duncan, if so, would you empty one or two capsules of the Black Indian Shilajit that you recommended some time ago and dissolve the contents in water?

According to the OptiMSM website (and other sources I've read concur), the best way to determine dosage is the same as when using powdered vitamin C - ie, you take it to 'bowel tolerance' - when you start having loose bowels or diarrhea, you back down to just below that level, then slowly start increasing it at that point. As far as I can tell, there are no dangerous side effects from taking too much - unless of course you continued taking too much until the diarrhea depleted you of vital minerals... > How fast were you able to move up in dosage? Actually, I started out right at 3 Tablespoons per day (in divided doses - morning, noon and evening. Once I get my OptiMSM I'm planning on doubling this (2 Tablespoons 3x per day), and going from there. > It seems like she is having alot of stomach discomfort by the end of > the day after the 3-1 gram doses. She could be experiencing some late > radiation effects to her bowels or still possibly battling some > C.Diff she caught in the hospital though, hard to tell. Could be... and everyone is different too. First thing to try to determine is if it is in fact the MSM that is causing the discomfort - if it is, just back dwn on the dosage until the discomfort is minimized or gone, then slowly start increasing it.. For cancer thought, apparently the absolute best therapy one can do is the intravenous DMSO/Sodium Bicarb therapy. I know that is what I would do if it were me, or one of my loved ones (assuming I could convince them to do it - but I can be pretty 'in your face' when I want/need to be ). > She has been on it for 2 weeks now.

I don't know anything about radiation detox... but I sincerely hope you and she stick with it... but like I said, slow down, it is better to go slower than to get discouraged by severe detox symptoms and stop altogether. All the best... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan - how would you compare shilajit with the Fulvic/Humic minerals from Vital Earth, which is what I'm currently taking? I really like them, but they're not the cheapest (a case of 12 gets you a 15% discount, but that almost $500)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 She seems to be feeling really well today, I am going to increase the dosage by 50% to 1.5grams per meal and see how she does today. I think once she has detoxed pretty well I should be able to increase the dosage pretty quickly. I think a 50% increase every 3 days or so seems to be sufficient to handle detox symptoms from the past 2 weeks experience. She is non-verbal so I have to be a little extra cautious as crying could mean anything for her. Concerning the DMSO/Socium Bicarb, without a reputable somewhat local natural doc to handle the DMSO/Sodium bicarb IV I doubt I'll be able to get my wife to go along with it unfortunately. But she has pretty much given me free reign when it comes to oral supplementation and Layla's trustee for her trust is providing financial support for it as well. I am thinking about combining Duncan's Shilajit with this product http://www.optimallyorganic.com/Fulvic-What.htm I like the fact that it is concentrated, which seems to be important in treating tumors. I learned this early on when I thought just changing her diet to high orac value/low oxidation foods, such as muscadine grapes, blueberry juice and virgin coconut oil(obviously) would work in conjunction with her treatment to stop the cancer. That didn't work so I have learned much on this board and have found the active substances in the foods and now give multiple concentrates/compounds. We have an MRI Monday to check the radiation effects and for new tumors. Will keep you posted. Here is a 40+ page report on fulvic acid that seems to be floating around the internet on multiple websites: http://www.fulvalife.com/documents/pdf/8.fulvic.acid.report.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Hi Weldon & Tanstaafl: From all that I have read, there is no limit for MSM intake in that you simply are not able to physically ingest too much and this would be especially true for a child. However, for cancer, it would make sense that DMSO would be preferred form since, with cancer, the oxidative component should be a benefit. Of course, with DMSO, you have to take the necessary precautions to avoid contamination.

In that case, there are two other options for your consideration... The first is very simple, using just plain Sodium Bicarb and maple syrup (or blackstrap molasses): http://www.health-science-spirit.com/maple.html The other is more involved/complicated, but also incorporates DMSO. It is called 'The overnight cancer cure' (aka OCCT - here's a direct link to the page describing the substances used: http://www.new-cancer-treatments.org/Cancer/OCC_04_Elements.html Sounds like your daughter is in good hands... all the best to you both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
