Guest guest Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 Cyndi- yes, I looked in to that and even called and talked with the people who run the area (wildlife preserve?). I have their information somewhere in these piles of info I've collected and will get it to you asap if you don't already have it. I got the idea from the show " Dirty Jobs " on Discovery when he (Mike Rowe) went to Sicily and worked in their sulfur mines there for a day. If I could afford it, I'd go there and hang out for a week or two. I bet the workers in those mines don't have to worry about getting this with all the sulfur in their systems. I also looked in to the mineral hot springs in the Riverside / Palm Springs area but I was so tired and beat up at that time that I just didn't have the energy to take it any further than just looking in to it. I actually started driving to one of them but stayed on the 10 and went straight to AZ instead to meet with that phantom entomologist at the U of Arizona that never showed up. ;( I would be interested in meeting you at one of these places maybe so that we could try it out... If you're uncomfortable with that, I totally understand- just another thought.... One more thing- I've been looking in to the benefits of bentonite clay and I think it is a good way to extract these things from your skin. You can get bentonite and clay separately from pottery supply houses and it's used in the high end spas for facials, etc. Dr. Staninger said it is a great idea and encouraged me and the other's she's treating to do it but, she is happy with what she's doing and doesn't feel the need to overload us with too much stuff so it's not included in her official protocol. Apparently bentonite is volcanic ash of some sort and is very inexpensive according to a close friend who runs a pottery shop in NYC. She said she has 5 50 pound bags in her studio and would send me a few pounds if she wasn't worried about sending white, powdery substances through the US mail. There's just something about having guys in black jackets raiding her shop that she wasn't comfortable with. I don't know if there is a medical grade bentonite that you're supposed to use on your skin or what, there's usually a medical grade EVERYTHING and it's usually 10-20 (or more) times more expensive than the regular- ex. hydrogen peroxide- $1.67 a bottle for regular, $22 a bottle for medical grade... I'll look in to that too. I find it SO interesting that we keep being led back to things that come from the environment naturally and the things that our so called " medical technology " has developed don't seem to do anything but aggravate this and make it worse most of the time. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm... PLEASE have a happy 50th birthday- ansoma ps- WHERE'S " SLO " ? Is that San Obispo?
