Natural Cures

[Guest guest]

I read somewhere that ginger was good for drawing toxins out. put a tablespoon

in the bath, don't know whether it would work for this though.

natural Cures

Sorry I can't help - but I would be interested in whatever you learn. We are

currently battling this, my husband is also a construction worker, sweats all

summer, and alway gets jock itch on his inner thights, buttocks, and sometimes

back during the summer. He also has fingernail fungus, and the skin just peels

off his hands and feet all winter. Its positively awful, we tried the

prescription, but it just came back, and with the side effect of liver damage,

its not worth doing more than once!

Now I have candida overgrowth in my system, and we are a yeasty mess!

However, I think the main thing my dh has to do is STOP DRINKING BEER and I

can't get him to do it! Its like a religion to is family and freinds, and if

you dont' drink beer you're a wimp or there is something wrong with you. When

I even mentioned cuttingo ut the beer, he looked at me like I askedh im to cut

off his right arm! Not to mention the cured meats, pickled this-and-that.

> I have a question for those of you who are familiar with natural

cures and oils, etc. (for I'm dumb as a post when it comes to that

stuff but I'm wanting to learn badly):

>

> My husband has always had a problem with fungus on his skin and has

to go to a dermatologist at least once a year and get salve and / or

pills to help. It shows up on his back, face, and upper inside of

his thighs. It is made much worse with hot weather, and since he is a

roofer, it gets bad every summer. Is there something he can try on

this because it makes him miserable???

I have heard for years to stop using Microwaves - it does something to the

structure of the food. Its best to cook everything in ovens or on top the

stove.

Fast food of course can be devoid of much good nutrition, who knows what

the processing is like before they turn the food out to the customer. Years

ago I had to do a study on Mc s. One hamburger bun had 6 tbsps

of sugar in it, the french fries were dipped in sugar as well. Lots of sugar

and cola's have lots of sugar as well. Don't try to save yourself sugar

by purchasing a diet drink. Its worse for you, Aspartame, Nutrasweet, etc

are Exicotoxins - with wreak havoc on the body. It breaks down into

Methanol - Formaldehyde -- effecting the central nervous system, and the

myelin stealth - covering of the brain and spinal column. YOu can learn more

about

Exicotoxins - google search it and look for Blalock book about it.

The Omegas are a better choice in fats. I do think its better to work with

someone

who understands herbs - than just diving into it without knowing side effects.

Anybody ever read this book? GREAT BOOK and makes me realize that we need to

STOP MICROWAVING FOOD, FAST FOODS, killing our kids and to stop using

medication and use Herbs...

What all do u think?

Green Tea and such.Omega 3s....

Hi Therese,

If your kids are basically healthy and this bug is the first time they have

been sick, it might not take the full homeopathic appointment to find a

remedy to help them get well.

However, if they are always coming down with something, that would mean that

the full process would be needed.

The reason I make the distinction between the two situations is that I DO

work with people, even people who are not already my patients, if they have a

one-shot ailment like a cold, flu, etc. and I have had some very nice results.

Croup is something that will respond very nicely to the right remedy.

Sinusitis, sinus infection is a bit harder, but still possible to get good

results.

And while it is easier to if I am able to see the sick person or child, I

also do this kind of work over the phone.

Very few homeopaths do this one-shot approach (probably because it is very

hard to find the right remedy for someone you don't know. But I've had lots

of experience at this. Plus I know, having used remedies on my three kids,

now adults, what a good remedy can do, especially for a child.)

I find that many times a person just needs a bit of help and then they are

fine.

Whatever approach you use, and you have several good suggestions on this

list, you have my sympathy and best wishes. There is little that is harder on

a

mom's heart than having sick children.

Warmly,

beth

Hey everyone,

My kids, Serena (27 months) & Rohan (10 months) have had this darned

virus that has been going around. They are on their 3rd week of being

sick. And Rohan has been teething on top of it all. (He is also on a

nursing strike) I went to the pediatrician just to double check that

they didn't have and ear infection or anything.

Long story even longer, He said that Serena had Purulent Rhinitis

(sinus infection?) and Rohan had the croup a little bit. The

treatment for Serena is antibiotics and Rohan is steam or if it gets

worse, steroids.

Does anyone know any natural cures? I found a couple of things online

for croup, but the rhinitus is trickier. They have about a million

types of sinus infections and are very loose about their definitions

and treatments. The treatments are anything from antibiotics to

surgery!!

I have been on the waiting list to see Dr. Hruby (listed in our

files) for about 10 months!!! So I'm not sure what to do right now.

Thanks,

Therese

Anne,

Thanks for noticing and mentioning my website. About 40% of my patients in

both MN and WI are kids. Some homeopaths don't work with kids (because they

get sick at inconvenient times!)

But if you can help a child live a healthier life, what a gift you have

given them.

Warmly,

beth

Therese,

I wonder if you could get in to see a homeopath. Homeopathic

Practitioners is where I go. I know it can be hard to get a first time

appointment last minute anywhere, but it is worth some phone calling

around. I go to a classical homeopath ( Sommerman) and they have

several classical homeopaths in their office and perhaps one would

have an opening. Their phone number is: 952-224-9292. They are located

in Edina.

Perhaps just explain your situation and see if they can fit you in. It

may be expensive for a first time appointment, but in my case, it has

been well worth it. I have been able to totally avoid antibiotics for

bladder infections. My daughter has taken them for strep throat and

for bladder and kidney infections. We are now on constitutionals and

rarely get anything.

Just a thought.............

Also, I'm wondering about seeing a naturopath.......

Dr. Hruby is excellent. I'm sorry you haven't been able to go in to

see him. He is great as he is an osteopathic physician and a classical

homeopath, plus he is a great advocate of traditional foods. I

recommend staying on the list.

I hope you find the help you need and that your kids feel better

really soon.

Lots of green smoothies. I need very few supplements now.

Still gray.

I have a feeling that some gray hair is genetically unavoidable. And some

is from nutritional reasons.

Dear Zavie,

You are right to observe the disclaimer. There are people in this group who do

believe in natural medicine and I posted it for their benefit. There hasn't

been exactly a plethora of information being posted, so I thought it might be

interesting to post something different and unconventional.

Some believe in combining the two, I leave it up to the individual, while

respecting their right to their beliefs, just as we respect different religions.

I know where you stand on this issue, and when you speak everyone listens,

because you have been at a place where angels fear to tread. You have been so

generous to respond to our members, giving them reassurances that they are on

the right path or steering them away from dangerous ideas, and of course you

are known as the Zero man. Who does not want to be on your list? We have got

to get you a cape. LOL

Aside from your CML volunteering, you do many other things for which you do not

expect praise and adulation. You have a dedication that you put in high gear

and I think everyone can appreciate what you do just for this group. Your

opinions are valued and respected and when we get out of line, you are there to

move us back in the right direction, not to mention the doors you have opened

for people to pass through who would have otherwise been denied entry - you have

saved lives. I think you know what I am talking about, but we won't get into

that here. I offer you my personal thanks, and I know there are lots of people

out there you owe you without even knowing why and lets leave it that way

because you deem it so.

Carpe diem xoxo to Ida

Did I understand correctly - you put sage leaves in green smoothies to get

plaque off of your teeth? Fresh sage leaves? Have you tried a paste on your

teeth? I only have dried sage. I walk and the closest grocery store sells a tiny

bunch of fresh sage for $5.00 - too expensive. I don't drive so can't buy fresh

at the farmer's market or other similar places. Can't grow any because I live in

a small apartment and have mold allergies so no inside plants. Could I make a

paste out of dried and ? and use it on my teeth? Thank you.
