IME - my feet! lol

if your calluses are really bad you have to use a

pumice stone... it takes time and then keep good

maintenance on your feet...

are you looking for a recipe or a method?

If it's for yourself it is prolly worht the cost of a

professional pedicure...

then keep them up...

When I do pedicures at work I will only use drywall screen, the stuff you get at

the hardware store in medium grade that they use for sanding drywall. It will

take all callus' off and leave your heels nice and smooth, much better than

pumice. Oh and it works amazingly on toilets also...removes all stains and hard

mineral build up super fast without scratching like pumice does...HTH's...Heidi

cool Heidi - thanks for sharing. I may have to try

that...dry wall screen.

I have used pumice on the toilets out here but ahven't

had any problems scratching the commode - in fact I

often wished it would work a little faster - maybe

that screening will. I don't know about my feet tho -

I have diabetes and staph issues.

Thanks again,

Willow

If you have hard callouses on yoru feet try alpha hydroxy cream. I

got some that was too strong for my face and it worked great to soften

my feet so I could take off the calloused skin with my fingers.

I use a sponge sanding block to remove callus and even edges left by a

nail clipper. I have done this for friends as well a pumise stone

works well for the maintenance but if there gets to be a build up a

med grade sanding block works wonders and like sanding wood you can

feel the difference and the block forms to the foot or toes

One of the best foot exfoliators is actually table salt. A good scrub recipe is

1 part salt to 1/2 part oil to 1/2 part shower gel of some sort. The shower gel

allows it to rinse away without that extreme greasy feel. Scrub with a pumice or

foot file and your feet will feel nice and smooth, then lather on a good

moisturizer like shea butter. If you do it daily/nightly for like a week or so,

you will see a big difference.

Hi Pamela, Bloating of the tummy often occurs after drinking Kombucha

as a strong detox reaction.

Did your sister drink water while she had the KT?

Generally speaking, any fermented, probiotic food/drink can cause

reactions in the gut, usually wind and bloating with accompanying tunes ;-0

Sauerkraut comes to mind, amother probiotic fermented food which is called

the broom of the gut. ;0) You can imagine the rest ;-)

This happens, because our diet usually is lacking the enzymes and/or

roughage/fibre and plain water that makes the gut work well.

When your sister returns and still gives Kombucha her confidence, she

should drink only very small amounts of KT (2 oz maybe) 2 or 3 times

daily and at least 4 oz of water every time closely with it and as the days

go by very gradually increase the amount of KT she drinks.

Flatulance which rather feels like 'fatulance' is normally nothing to

worry about, although it is annoying at the time ....

God bless you,

Margret:-)

Could the stronger KT have begun a cleansing action that was not able

to finish because of an impacted colon?

I'm not giving any advice, but I know if that happened to me, the

first thing I'd do is get a colon hydrotherapy treatment to get

everything out.

Again..this is not advice, and may not be the right thing for your

sister. What foods did she eat at that time? Any leads there?

I just see more and more people starting cleanses for various things

without first making sure the colon is cleaned out and in good

working order.

If long held toxins start moving out of wherever they have been

stored, they need to exit the body as fast as possible. Even if it's

food poisoning, same thing.

I'm curious to know what are the doctors doing with her? Hospitals

used to have colon hydrotherapy units, but decided it took too long

and was not cost effective (even though using pure water is so safe).

Now they use drugs instead. Maybe there are other aspects to consider

as well, and hospitals have all kinds of diagnostic equipment.

Hi Pamela,

While anything is possible, chances are the KT had nothing to do with

your sisters problems. I certainly hope not! The only thing that would

cause problems would be mold and mold is visible. If it was too acidic

like vinegar, she probably wouldn't have had much of it to drink.

I have personally kept Kombucha refrigerated, sealed in a bottle for

over three years. It tasted like fine Champagne when we finally opened

the bottle and it had fine carbonation like Champagne as well. I have

kept many more bottles for a year or more with no problems whatsoever.

Hope things go well for your sister and that she feels better soon.

Peace, Love and Harmony,

Bev

Thank you for your replies.

My sister has had an ultrasound, CAT scan, and colonoscopy as well as

various blood work. All the tests are proving her to be normal and

healthy. No clue as to why she has this excessive fluid accumulation

in her abdominal cavity.

From what I'm hearing from you all there doesn't seem to be any reason

to suspect the KT as a factor. She didn't have much and said she did

dilute it with water.

Tomorrow they intend to aspirate the fluid and try and get some

answers that way.

Thank you again for your insights.

I just read today in a book on kombucha that older, stronger Kombucha

that is kept in the fridge, and not covered but actually capped, can

develop into acetone. It sad that if your kombucha smelled a bit like

nail polish remover, don't drink it. That it can cause kidney damage

and etc.

I wonder if this is true? Does anyone on the forum know?

Jill! \o/

It sounds like ascites. If the liver is damaged, the fluids build up in

the abdomen. This happened to my MIL at the age of 78. She had been in

a bad car accident 30 years prior, and had received blood transfusions.

She had contracted Hep C, which apparently was sort of dormant, but

produced some damage that resulted in scarring of her liver---

cirrohsis. She was NOT a drinker! I hope that is not the case with your

sister. Jill...<><

Hi Jill and EveryOne,

I've been reading this list since 1995, on almost a daily basis, and

although the subject of Acetone has come up a few times, evidently

from reading the same book you did, no one has ever said that they

experienced their KT having Acetone or smelling like it.

Can't imagine drinking anything that smelled like nail polish remover....

The acetone thing is quite common in vinegar making, it isn't acetone though,

it's an aldehyde, it happens when the fermentation is incomplete, probably

because it's not getting enough O2, in vinegar at least, but acetobacter is part

of the brew isn't it? I've only had it with some red wine that I didn't dilute

enough, once I added more water and started doing the proper maths it stopped.
