Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Drink water and put a dropperful of Cayenne Tincture in it. I have another testimony about Cayenne Tincture, i gave a bottle to a friend of mine in Arizona when i was out there visiting for Christmas and she was complaining about her weak bladder and ever since we where teenagers she always annoyed us back then of having to pee all the time and still to this day she said she would have to go about 15 times a day at work and that sounds like her pattern from 20 years ago, so I don't doubt what she is saying. After I left she put a dropperful in her water as she drank it several times a day and that week for the first time in her life she only went 2 times while at work, she is absolutely delighted! She also said that when she goes, she really feels like she is going, where before it would only trickle out and she would never completely empty. Also she has talk to the Doctor about her problem and they have done every conceivable test with not a thing would ever show up. Cayenne once again worked!

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Any issues with the prostrate??? He needs to be seen by a urologist, rule out stones, etc. Why the urostomy??? Have you tried condom cath's. (In case he's a dribbler.) Urostomy sites will always be a problem with microbes. Cranberries and blueberries have an enzyme that attaches to the lining of the bladder, which microbes cannot easily cling on to. I prefer organic, not from concentrate, blueberry juice. Hard to find, and averages about $5/quart. Not sure how well cranberry tablets do - but worth a shot. I wouldn't remove the bladder, unless there's cancer involved. It will be a nightmare. Good luck. ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 There is some controversy over the use of distilled water as a healthier alternative to tap, spring or purified water. One camp suggests that distilled water is beneficial since it contains no impurities or minerals and helps flush away excess minerals and toxins from the body. Another camp believes that distilled water leaches essential minerals from the body and could leave teeth vulnerable to damage. Distilled water does not contain sodium fluoride, unlike many municipal water systems. There is some evidence that distilled water does absorb carbon dioxide when exposed to air, and this could conceivably raise the pH to a more acidic level. This increased acidity can in turn create more health problems. Proponents of distilled water suggest that humans receive far more minerals and nutrients from food than water, so the effects of distilled water on the body should be minimal at best.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Distilled water is " hungry water " . Water ALWAYS wants to dissolve things. For example, my grandparents had a really nice concrete sink complete with built in wash board. When they got air conditioning the condensate (distilled water) was drained into the concrete sink. After a couple of years, the concrete had a groove in it where the condensate / distilled water ran. In other words, the distilled water dissolved the concrete. Distilled water will dissolve teeth and remove everything it can from our bodies. For this reason I'm a fan of reverse osmosis (RO) water. The RO process leaves a few things behind and therefore the water is not as " hungry " . foot note: I purchased my grandparents home from their estate. I placed a " water hardner " onto the air conditioning drain to protect the concrete sink. I went down the street and picked up a handfull or two of pea-sized bits of gravel. The rocks were placed into a small plastic bottle with holes punched into it. The bottle was placed over the air conditioner drain. Now only hard water gets put into the concrete sink. How about an " invalid " cure for something? > What distilled water does for a person it grabs all the inorganic salts, it is a thirsty water.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I bought my own CS generator ($250!) and with it came the necessary testing device, I now make my own coloidal silver, obviously at a better price than purchasing it elsewhere. re: Anyone have a valid UTI cure? high dose Vit C IV and/or ultraviolet B IV would likely work; also colloidal silver would likely help- need high quality silver water, I get mine from Dr. Talmor in Gainesville, Fl or mild silver protein(VRP) , VRN(9-03) probiotics should help and immune boosters like Russian Choice or Olive Leaf Extract or Mannatech Immunostart. other things: kidney cleanse, zap with ultimate zapper or Rife Machine or Quantum-SCIO, lots of water, cranberries, D-Mannose, Probiotics, VRN(9-03) Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Municipal water is generally horrible. I have been poisoned by water 3 times from wells. We get a water report from the municipalities which generally no one reads, I do. They are allowed so many pollutants at various levels. Some of the municipal water is recycled tiolet and sewer water. On our water report, it says that it is sometimes not safe for infants to drink. So imagine an immune compromised person. The State I live in , the water is classified as d quality. Not good. I am in the USA, so don't know what england or other places do as far as municipal water quality. Bottled water is not necessarily any better then tap, you don't know where they get it from. It was tested here and many times found to be no better then ordinary tap water. Distilled is chemically pure, you could modify the mineral content in your diet and other other vitamins etc. You usually have little control over municipal water quality. Unless you have the money to put in a water purification system in your home. Or use a Britta pitcher, which can get expensive, with new filters. The municipal water here is terrible, sometimes it leaves a brown film at the bottom of a cup. As for antibacterial soap, it has been thought of as unhealthy to start using it for everything, particularly with children who need to build up their immune systems. But we are talking about already compromised immune systems in one way or another, usual overuse of ABT therapies, which makes the bugs even more resistant. Good handwashing techniques and infection control go a long way towards preventing infections. Which is better I think then trying to cure them. Just my opinion. I used to get them, but haven't had one in years. Respectfully, Delphine > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Excellent report sharing facts with the rest of us. Thank you. If the water is treated by Reverse Osmosis (RO), it will be pretty darn clean. I used to work in a factory making semiconductors, which requires extremely pure water. We used RO as our front line treatment of the local city water. Something that really confused me recently about bottled water was the hype against Dasani water. This water is tap water purified by RO (the website says so), which was the major part of producing water for semiconductor fabrication. I think that hub-ub was someone casting stones to make their product seem better. One of those anti-Dasani reports was saying how pure spring water was. Spring water is NOT pure. Let me repeat, spring water is NOT pure. Just look at the fields on top of the springs and all of the cows urinating and defecating in the field above the spring. It's all natural. All of our water is recycled anyway. Dinosaurs even pooped, urinated, and cavorted in the water before it got to us. mmmmmm. Where's my RO machine? > Hi, I am not advocating that a person use distilled water constantly, > I am saying to use it as a flush, then return to your regular water, > whatever you drink.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 I personally prefer water that goes through a charcoal filter. When I'm in New Mexico, I drink well water that gets treated and tested regularly because we serve food in our store/restaurant. I used to date a Culligan man. I did some trade shows with him and he had samples of the water before and after the RO. alrightguy123 wrote: Excellent report sharing facts with the rest of us. Thank you.

LOL, now I am divorced and don't have great water either. I will try to find out about this reverse osmosis thing and see if I can't get something to clean up the tap water. I am moving anyway, so don't want to expend money on a house system. Namaste, Hima I used to date a Culligan man. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 In my journey into all of natural healing any water is better then no water at all and I have found with myself and others, hardly anyone, that doesn't everyone, doesn't even come close to drinking enough water on a daily basis. You should drink 1 ounce to every pound of your body weight. When I first started on this path, I drank tap water and I experienced a tremendous amount of healing. As well as drinking Reverse Osmosis, Spring, Distilled so whats up with that? I believe as long as you get some form of water it is better then none at all! I do prefer distilled over any other kind, it really makes the most sense to me and I like the taste as well and it can be made right at home (convenience) Kopera www.ginakopera.com Delphine wrote: > > Kopera ginakopera1@ wrote: > > What distilled water does for a person it grabs all the inorganic > salts, it is a thirsty water.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi, you can get Discovery D-mannose caps on the internet. My son has spms now, with a sp cath, and frequent UTI's getting more and more serious and frequent. He has been taking the D-mannose, 3 caps, 3x day. If we slip up or run out, right away he has another UTI (which puts him the hospital for IV antibiotics at this point). The D-mannose is the best thing I have found. It is supposed to be 10x stronger than cranberry.
