detox

[Guest guest]

I do like saunas, they make me feel better. Usually I take baths with salt,

there are other

things that some find helpful to put in a bath.

But, YES, drinking purified water really makes a difference for me too. Also

avoidance

whenever possible, which is spotty.

Some friends of mine use enemas to get the toxins out of the gut- I have not

yet tried

that. The toxins get reabsorbed from the gut into the bloodstream. The detox of

sweating

bypasses that system to directly get it out of the skin. It helps me to get the

sweat off

ASAP, because I reabsorb it back into my skin if it stays there.

I have really been helped by many alternative therapies. But many of them are

not safe to

be left around children, and just because they are herbal or whatever, doesn't

mean they

are without risk. The dose makes the poison. Many medications cause similar

kinds of

damage. Tylenol causes kidney damage, for example. I believe no drug is

completely safe,

but given the nature of our bodies is to heal itself given half a chance, side

effects and risk

seem like they would go up the sicker someone is.

I heard a friend used oil of oregano from the book you mentioned (the same brand

as) for

her family and her son regained his health after many years. It was some kind of

fungal

infection, and the docs would not diagnose it. So she took care of her family

herself, and

now they are fine.

I just think all medicines, whether medical or herbal need to be treated with

respect.
