Re: Regarding MSM-taking pills

[Guest guest]

Hi Liz,

In an effort to reduce the number of 'pills' I take, I open capsules and dump

the dry contents into something drinkable. For the most part, I mix with my

whey drink. I drink my whey with a straw so that I can slurp any sediment of

any supplements that may settle on the bottom. Perhaps, your Dad's days can be

made easier this way, too.

Love and Laughter,

Hi Anne,

the thing is, we're already doing that for many of his supplements! Then there

are a few that are small enough that he can easily swallow that he takes.

Basically, there's just only so much " stuff " a person in his condition can take,

so we can't add things unless they are necessary, and may have to drop other

important things if we do just so he can handle it.

appreciate the tip though : )

Another thing to consider - all of those supplements require a working

liver to metabolize - the worse condition a persons liver is in, the

harder it is for them to make use of most supplements.

For someone who is already in a weakened state, the first/primary focus

should be on strengthening their basic systems - eliminative (healing

clay water/charcoal slurries, homozon to help clean things out and keep

things moving), digestive (homemade kefir/yogurt made from raw full fat

milk (goats milk if you have a dairy intolerance), inulin, and a high

quality probiotic (I like PB8), and chemical processing (liver/gall

bladder/kidney cleanses, liver/kidney support herbs, etc).

I'd also include in the initial treatment a 3 times daily 'whey shake'

consisting of a high quality liquid mineral supplement (I like the Vital

Earth Fulvic/Humic blend), whey protein isolate (I like the whey from

LifeSource), selenium and 1/4 cup of raw cream (if not dairy

intolerant), and twice daily (in between the whey shakes) 8 ounces of

homemade bone broth.

In many cases, people will have a 100% turnaround just from these basics...

Then, if you need to target specific issues, work on them after a few

months on the basics.

Hi Liz,

Good to hear that you're already maximizing your options. The best to you and

your Dad.

ONE ANOTHER SUBJECT:

I notice that my response to you was not posted through the group. I

clicked 'reply to group', thinking that would do it. Can you tell me how to

direct my responses (or any new input) so that it's posted for everyone. Thanks

in advance for helping me with the truly mundane.

Love and Laughter,

Anne

Hi Anne...it looks to me like your messages have been posted on the group. In

the " " box above when you are writing a response, just be sure it's on the

" Coconut Oil " and it will be visible for all here.

Best,

Liz

Is there alternate suggestion for people who cannot take dairy, whey, and many

herbs bc of allergic like intolerances? The whey seems to be a biggie, is there

a suitable replacement that does the same?

Thanks, Liz

I'm doing just that with this post.

If my last post went to the group, do you know why it wouldn't show up in my

emails? I never see them!

Again, many thanks.

Love and Laughter,

You may not have set it up that way...I think if you go to where it says " Edit

Membership " at teh top of the forum page, you can change the settings there.
