Fw: Re Dehydration

[Guest guest]

Tim,

Order some MSM Powder from puremsm.com. This is a natural mineral that has been depleted from our enviroment- land, soil, food (by processing any way) and is essential for muscle, ligament and collagen health.

I use a tbsp in 1/4 c of water-- drink it down, and within minutes the pain and nerve issues subside. It is like Vit C, water soluble, so you can't take too much, you'd just piss it out.

The other really good diuretic is to add lemon to your water-- the natural C helps get the toxins out. Milk Thistle is the other "gotta have it." IT is a natural liver detoxifier-- and since we're on such nasty meds, our liver needs the break. In the MESSAGE ARCHIVES-- I've done a huge amount of research and you can look up the info there..

In the direction of Suzanne Somers-- there is an excellant book that is written by one of her advisors-- THE SCHWARZBEIN PROTOCOL. It is written by an MD that is an endocrinologist. Her last name is Schwarzbein. She explains in detail the challenges of autoimmune diseases and approaches healing from dietary idea. She covers adrenal insufficiency, which become an issue for us that have been on pred for years; as well as the variations of hormonal imbalances. IT is not only a great read but she gives us the diet to heal.

My family has been using it (the guys do better than I do) and we've all benefited.

We truly have to be careful when it comes to "enhancing" our immune systems-- we don't need to bolster a system that is already so powerful it is attacking our own healthy body. So do be cautious and learn as much as you can about this disease.

Someone stated that they realized they had to teach their MD-- and that is the sad truth! You will find that the more proactive you are in your treatment, the better off you will be. If your docs won't listen or read the info you have for them-- find ones that will.

On the issue of nerve pain-- if you have changed to make sure you're not dehyrdated, and you've cut the sugars out of your diet-- and still have the pain-- you may find that the MSM helps calm the nerve ends.

Another really helpful practice has been to tell myself that "Ok, Tracie, you know this pain, and it's at it's peak right now- it hurts, but it's not going to kill you." Then I practice deep breathing techniques that help to clear my lungs of any carbon dioxide buildup, and then by fully inhaling-- I visualize all that new oxygen getting out to my extremities.

Remember that if you are anemic, you have fewer red blood cells. Fewer red blood cells makes for less cells to carry oxygen to your extremities. So that issue needs to be looked at.

It seems like alot of small issues-- add up to huge problems for us. So we really need to look closely at what is happening and not let the docs say "well, you're 'slightly' anemic, or you're 'slightly' dehydrated-- but I don't think it's serious."

For us, it is serious, and if we get the small stuff addressed then the big picture gets more managable.

Hope this helps,

Tracie
