Things that have helped !

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I wanted to pass along some things I found that have helped me a great deal.

There's no guarantee that they would help anyone else but even so, I felt I

should post. These are my experiences only after months of trial and error.

I have had no allergic reaction, again this combination just happens to help

me. Mind you, I still get hits and slams but at least they have decreased in

duration and frequency. Also this is not a cure - I only say it helps me

personally. If any of you want specific information - please ask. I've done

a ton of research on the vitamins I am taking.

#1

I saw Dr. Marinkovich for the first time three months ago (one month after

moving from mold location) His prescription for an anti-fungal was the fisrt

round of treatment. My head cleared a little and my energy returned a bit.

It is not a linear climb upward for recovery but the betterment was quite

noticeable. Still on the meds.

then I added the following:

#2

Natren. www.natren.com This is AMAZING stuff and it is the single biggest

contributor to my increasing well-being. Natren is a massive probiotic that

replaces yeast in the digestive system. (MUST keep it refrigerated) My GI

system was " reset " , my toxin induced bloating was gone in two days. Seems

now my GI is better able to handle clearing toxins / yeast / bad fungus. It

truly supports the immune system. Your plumbing works ! Freinds of mine have

had amazing results with Natren as well. I use the Trinity Starter system. I

actually called the company and told them about my illness. (They were

familier with mold and yeast !) They recommended I start slow as this is

powerful stuff and if not started slowly could cause too quick of a die-off.

In any case, I was dancing to the moon in 2-3 week's time I had so much

energy, thought clearer - just everything was better. (Put my dog, who got

sick from the mold and who is also on anti-fungal from the vet, on their

canine formula too.) You can get Natren at health food stores.

#3

Detox bath salts (ABRA brand) and saunas. Gotta be caeful on this. But I use

my own bath tub if I can't get to a sauna. Basically - I sweat it out. While

in the tub / sauna I drink a ton of distilled water (and ONLY distlled

water) and afterwards take activated charcoal. I noticed that during bad

slams, if I get into a bath / sauna right away the hit doesn't last as long

and it decreases rapidly. However, you should shower right after to rinse

what you sweat out.

#4

Garlic. Lots of it. That's it. Just a ton of fresh garlic. Daily.

#5

Dietary changes - and I stick with them everyday. (mold diet found here

http://www.mold-survivor.com/dietcopyright.htm )

No processed foods (they use old food to process. Old = moldy)

No sugar - none, nada, zip

No fruit juices - although pomegranite juice helps ! (Choose " Naked " brand

or " Odwalla " brand only)

Fresh whole foods daily - I eat nothing over a day old, even if it

refrigerated

Lots of power vegies like Kale, brocolli, carrots, beets, cabbage,

cauliflower !

Basically I follow the above Diet link.

#6

Water - CLEAN water ! and lots of distilled water - never tap water - even

for cooking. Chlorine, it's been rported, kills good bacteria in your GI and

the Flouride is poison. I figure your body is taxed enough with the mold,

why tax it further.

#7

Daily vitamin (Jarrow brand ONLY) Charcoal in the morning - Natren

everynight and afternoon (empty stomach), Billberry (supposed to help with

the blurred vision - for me it does !), Quercitin, Silymarin, Tumeric

capsule with a meal, Cilantro capsula, Alpha Lipoic Acid, and lastly extra

Biotin !

#8

Lots of rest, good sleep, practice avoidance, use a FRESH TOWEL on your

pillow to sleep on every night, Olive Oil soap (no reaction, very mild),

shower twice a day. Avoid stress at all costs. Stay calm. Pray, meditate,

play with a puppy - anything to help stress. (As with all serious

illnesses). Fresh air - walking outside away from the city and toxins.

#9

Also getting to a higher elevation seems to help, curiously enough. I go to

the mountains as often as I can to " clear " .

Be good to yourself !!! The mold is bad enough !
