Guest guest Posted December 1, 2001 Report Share Posted December 1, 2001 > > Gosh remind me about min col what is it again? , I'll post highlights of this from my recent post. There is a website for it. (Look up Min-Col) I'm ordering some now. Perhaps some of the foot pain we are experiencing, as well as the loss of integrity of our teeth, arthritis, and other symptoms is from not absorbing calcium? This issue of disruption of calcium metabolism in our bodies has been brought up before. Patty MIN-COL A colloidal Calcium/Mineral ANSWER: You may be taking calcium every single day, but TAKING calcium is not the problem. The problem stems from not being able to properly ASSIMILATE calcium. And if this is the case, you end up with arthritis or other inflammatory symptoms. WHY? Because when calcium is not USED by the body, it ends up in joints gradually crystallizing (hardening) and pressing against nerves sending pain. PHOSPHORUS is essential to bones, but too much phosphorus, in excess of calcium intake, can lead to bone loss. Red meat, cola drinks and bread contain much higher phosphorus than calcium. It is essential to get more calcium than phosphorus. -Health Freedom News By the way, your bones need more than just calcium. Bones are not like rock, but actually change every two years. For over 20 years our family has used Min-Col - rich in colloidal calcium and loaded with every known trace mineral meant to be there according to your maker. You see, Min-Col is a clay product ...a source of calcium and other minerals in a phosphatic colloidal form. Colloidal means `organic'-easily absorbed! Colloids are actually much lighter than even a feather. So absorption is that much easier. Osteoporosis is a direct result of the inability to absorb calcium. Calcium carbonate (Tums, et al) is less soluble and more difficult to absorb than colloidal calcium. Older people produce less hydrochloric acid and have more difficulty with carbonate calciums. The formulator for MinCol, Dr. Carey A. Reams, used MinCol to raise his 3 children who never had a single cavity! X-Rays of patients having broken bones -taking MinCol-showed they knitted much faster that their doctors thought possible. Senior Citizens can greatly strengthen bones with Min-Col. A 1994 panel compiled by the National Inst. of Health (NIH) found that 50% of Americans don't consume enugh calcium. " A deficiency could lead to $10 billion in medical costs for osteoporosis treatment " , said NIH. We Disagree. In our literature we refer you to a biochemist's natural creation of MIN-COL, a colloidal calcium/mineral (meaning its absorbability is next to water!) So, it is NOT how MUCH calcium we take, but how much we ABSORB! Your energy factor is determined by the perfor-mance of a joint effort of a wide variety of nutrients. And that's the beauty of Min-Col, because Min-Col also contains every known trace mineral God meant for human consumption. That's why Dr. Reams' three children never had a single cavity. That's why the Blair family has been taking Min-Col (only one-a-day) since 1977. Should you or anyone you know be confronted with bone cancer, Dr. Reams says, take Min-Col like it's going out of style.

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2002 Report Share Posted January 5, 2002 Hi Patty, I just read this email to my husband :-0 And you should have seen the look on his face! :-) After he informed me that he's a little old-fashion and cannot see taking his coffee up the butt, he then left the room. Then he came back in and said he could never do that! When I asked him why? He said, "Because I like my coffee with my doughnuts!" :-) He's so cute! Thank you for the info Patty and thank you for your love, care and concern. Love and Hugs............. Patty <fdp@...> wrote: e and others, In the past I said I would look for natural ways of pain relief, and wanted to share with you a paragraph from "the Gerson Therapy". It says, " Caffeine taken rectally stimulates liver's action, increases bile flow, and opens bile ducts so that one's liver can excrete the toxic products of metabolic improvement more easily. Coffee enemas are excellent for preventative medicine as well as for treatment. They also bring about remarkable pain relief." We have discussed coffee enemas many times on this list, and the directions for doing this are in the files section on Healing Therapies. If you have not yet tried this form of therapy, I highly encourage you to do so. I know it sounds dumb. I thought so when my naturopath first told me to do coffee enemas. I thought he was off his rocker. That was until I found out more about it, and became more educated. I made the mistake of being biased against something without having the knowledge to back up my position. I found out I shouldn't do that anymore! God bless....hope some of you with major pain issues will try this and let us know how you feel after a fair trial of this therapy.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2002 Report Share Posted January 6, 2002 Hi ,Here are the directions for the coffee enema.I hope you and your husband try it!PattyNOTE: It is a good idea to start with a warm water enema first, to remove the wastes present and ready to be eliminated. Then follow with the coffee enema for full benefit. BASIC DIRECTIONS (1) Boil 1 quart/1 liter water, with 3 rounded tablespoons of freshly ground coffee in non-metal pan (I use glass)over med heat. Use only filtered, purified or distilled water, not tap water. Do not use a coffee maker. Use only organically grown, non-decaffeinated coffee beans. Store coffee beans in the freezer to retain freshness. (2) Allow coffee to boil for 5-15 min, to evaporate the oils. (3) Let cool to body temp. (4) Strain, using a fine-mesh stainless steel tea strainer(it looks like screen wire) to strain out the grounds, leaving the "silt". Since many of the beneficial elements for detoxification in the coffee are fiber-bound, it isn't a good idea to use a paper strainer, or even a cloth,unless it's got a fairly coarse weave. (5) Filtered water may be added back to make one full quart. Using an enema bag, insert coffee mixture into rectum. Lie on your right side for 15 min with knees toward your chest, breathing deeply. (6) Evacuate bowels. Additional comments on the coffee enema: "Gerson knew that the coffee enema dilated the bile ducts and caused a flushing of toxic bile from the liver. (Drinking coffee constricts the bile ducts). He also knew that this was the most effective method for detoxification. Since Gerson's time various active ingredients in coffee have been identified and most interestingly, the palmitates present in coffee increase the binding of toxic elements by the bile 7-fold and this enzyme-enhancing ability in the liver and small intestine does not allow reabsorption of the toxic bile. Most cholerectic herbs do not ensure this complete removal of toxins but only an increase in bile flow. In order to assist detoxification I often recommend the coffee enema. They guard against a toxic build-up that can make you feel so dreadful and in this way help the body to heal. It is important to remember that the coffee enemas go hand-in-hand with the juices: no enemas - no juices and no juices - no enemas. The juices will remove toxicity from the tissues and the coffee enema ensures its removal to the outside. If used without the juices they will ultimately have a depleting effect on nutrients. The rule of thumb is - 3 juices (3 x 250mls) per coffee enema. If you increase the juices then you can safely increase the enemas." From "Detoxing and the Flagging Liver(part 2 of 3)by (From Gerson Healing Newsletter Vol. 15, No. 3, May-June, 2000) http://www.gerson.org/healing/articles/nl_detoxingliver.htm QUESTION: How does coffee taken orally differ from taking it as a rectal enema? ANSWER: Coffee taken by mouth is a vasoconstrictor causing capillary and bile duct constriction. Drinking coffee is damaging to the stomach due to the aromatic fatty acids (which are not absorbed through the colon since the aromatics are boiled off in the "coffee enema recipe" preparation). Drinking coffee is an artificial stimulant and appetite suppressant as well as creating a more acidic environment in the body which is counter productive to healing. When taking the coffee enema, the caffeine and other components act to relax and open the bile ducts releasing toxins (as much as seven times the normal rate) from the liver. The glutathione-S transferase system is activated as well to enhance the functions of the immune system. Simply put, one is health giving and on is not. Choose the "coffee break" that is cleansing and supportive. Thousands of people have found this to be true. The coffee enema is also an excellent method for pain relief that is caused by toxic build up in the liver and colon. Remember, Dr. Gerson first developed his Therapy to cure his migraine headaches. However, a word of caution: any more than one coffee enema a day should be taken with sufficient juices and supplements to maintain a healthy balance in the body. Dr. Gerson spent many years developing a safe and effective therapy that requires some attention and study by the users. Still have questions?

You see, my husband has some serious health issues also and one of them is his back pain, which at times is pretty intense. So, while I'm waiting to hear back from you, I'll be preparing my hubby (oh my)! :-) Thanks allot Patty and thank you for sharing about your husband, hopefully that will help me with mine.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 What part of the country did you say you live in ? Just curious, as I am so itchy and dry since moving here to the Desert in Idaho, ha ha, anyhow I have found that I need a ton of moisturizer to help my extra dry skin, which for me is ironic considering I have always been so prone to oily pimply skin, not anymore, Anyhow just curous, it may not have anything to do with it but thought I would ask, Take care Love, ----- Original Message ----- From: Curry Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2002 9:46 PM Subject: Patty Hi Patty, Me too? If you find the article on itching, I would also appreciate it if you would pass it on. Even though my implants have been out for a little over four years, I still have allot of itching, especially on my chest, but also my legs, arms, hands and back. A couple of days ago, the itching on my chest was so bad I scratched until I bled. It only gets that rough every once in a while and this last time, it was really rough.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 Here is another possibility. http://www.naturalhealthnotebook.com/Health_Problems/Itching.htm Itching Liver support Itching can be the result of the body using the skin as an organ of the elimination. Supporting the liver minimizes the use of this elimination pathway. Yellow dock may be used in quantities up to 16 per day . Vitamin AVitamin A Caution: Women who may become pregnant should not use more than 10,000 IU/day to avoid the potential for birth defects. Long-term use of doses greater than 50,000 IU/day may become toxic for adults and should be used only with the supervision of a health professional. Consider substituting beta-carotene for long-term use. Adrenal support Supporting the adrenal glands increases the production of the body's own anti-inflammatory steroid hormones. Licorice root/DGL Pantothenic acid Essential Fatty Acids Reduce the use of meat and frying oils. These follow metabolic pathways that produce inflammatory prostaglandins inside cells. Substitute Omega 3 oils including Flax Seed Oil to begin rebuilding cells that do not participate in uncontrolled inflammatory cascades. ----- Original Message ----- From: Curry Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2002 8:46 PM Subject: Patty Hi Patty, Me too?
