Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 You should be tested every six months . Ask why they are not doing this. When you take Diuretics you can lose too much potassium in your urine and this needs watching closely.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hi Sheila, I have already apologised for forgetting to change format of my replies- I can't set this and have to do it each time and occasionally I forget. Sodium Bicarbonate - can you turn messages in Rich Text into Plain Text before replying, and then your messages might come through. Until gets rid of the bugs it has, we have to compromise for the time being. Luv - Sheila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hi nick, I do that, but it resets depending on the format of the message to which I am replying. Eg your message is plain text so it is set at that, but if it were HTML or rich test then the reply would come up as that unless I remember to check and change. Lots of illogical things seem to happen to me on this computer!!

There is an option to force a plain text mail from it, you have to set the format to plain text and then turn off the " reply in the format of incoming mail " option.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Tools, options, send, untick reply to messages in the same format they were sent (or something like that).

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I have been on diuretics for about ten years, but did not have my potassium levels tested until about four years ago when I was in hospital with gall bladder problems, and I was told I had low potassium levels. No action taken, but I did increase my intake of bananas. In 2008 I had a urea and electrolytes test (not sure why) and the potassium came back at 4.9 mmol/l and sodium at 142 mmol/l which I think are good levels, though I dont have the lab ranges. Then in autumn of 2008 I was hospitalised with acute pancreatitis and again was told I had low potassium, (although I did not have vomiting and 'ria which can cause low potassium) I have since started taking Ionic Trace Mineral Drops, plus about 10 bananas per week and loads of tomatoes, which should give a good balance, Oh yes, and when I read the PIL for the Bendroflumethizide for the first time (!) I stopped taking it, about two months ago. Now I only visit the bathroom twice each night instead of five times, and my ankles are only fractionally more puffy than before. One of the other side effects. I see, can be pancreatitis. Hmm. Ginny B. > > You should be tested every six months . Ask why they are not doing > this.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Because until we found out about it, it has been a very well kept secret. Go to our Files from the Home Page of this forum web site and click on Candida, and then click on the FILES Sodium Bicarbonate. Spread the word. Luv - Sheila Hi, I was just wondering,if sodium bicarbonate is so great for candida etc,why do so many people take so many other things and for so long or permanantly?

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 And is it just the cynic in me that feels that it is " discounted " as a " cure " because it is so cheap.... and the pharmaceticals can't make much money on it! My dad used to take " bicarb " every day for years for a reflux stomach but was persuaded onto other stuff years ago by his GP. He still suffers but the bill to the tax payer is a lot more! ~kimx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Does bicarb not give you horrendous diarrhoea?

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hi Glynis, An overdose of almost any salt will cause diarrhoea. It's best to keep the amount down to about a half teaspoon in sufficient water to make it 'pallatable' ~ and I use neat sodium bicarbonate (10-20mg) for my teeth to give them an extra clean feeling ~ so it doesn't taste all that bad......as opposed to neat table salt. best wishes Bob > > Does bicarb not give you horrendous diarrhoea? > Glynis > > > > Because until we found out about it, it has been a very well kept secret. > > Luv - Sheila > > > I was just wondering,if sodium bicarbonate is so great for candida etc,why > > do so many people take so many other things and for so long or permanantly? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 If taking too much - people use this to help constipation. Cut your dose if you constantly have 'dire rear' Glynis.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi Sheila, I don't take bicarb, I used it when I used to have a lot of cystitis many years ago but have not taken it internally for many years.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi B s salts have magnesium sulphate as well as sodium bicarbonate (plus citric acid ~ the fizz) ratio about 5:4 bicarb : magnesium Those two things it's becoming almost impossible to source easily these days....they don't want you to know about, let alone be able to buy them... small pots of bicarb for cooking perhaps...

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Hi All, Still confused. I always have a pot of ENO in the house. I don't use it much but sometimes it is good when I feel a bit 'yucky'. I just wondered if half a teaspoon of the ENO in the morning was as good as the sodium bicarb for candida etc., B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Dr. Simoncini's work with sodium bicarbonate is summarized in seven pages on the web starting at www.curenaturalicancro.com/therapy-simoncini.html This is a very encouraging write-up of successes in treating many difficult to treat cancers, well worth reading all seven pages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hello Dr Sircus Thanks so much for the links and additional info! Apologies for my late reply. I'll definitely try to make use of this valuable info. I sometimes do get overwhelmed by all this information and vast knowledge out there and it takes time to do your own research.. which is exactly what I've been trying to do in the past 2 months. And, no...i am not a practicioner..I am just trying to help my mum and also expand my own background knowledge while I'm at it. The fact that I'm not an expert makes things a bit tricky as i simply cant offer her the guidance a professional could. And of course I am afraid of doing it wrong. I posted her protocol on this forum a few minutes ago. So if you dont mind would you have a quick look and tell me if I could incorporate sodium bicarbonate somehow - or if there's anything i'd better leave out. Do you reckon Lugol's iodine could be of benefits for her? Once again, thanks for your help. all the best Tami > > At this link you can see a recent essay from my newsletter on oral use that is not in the book ... http://www.imva.info/news/oral-dosages-of-bicarbonate.html ...... and very important to note that in the general guidline is the mandate to take it with other substance most importantly magnesium but that said its really is easy as far as the bottom line....and sure there are side effects if you dont do or approach it correctly meaning you can over do it or underdo it...so have to monitor pH daily....or even more often .....maximum dose of bicarbonate _see Arm and Hammers box is seven half teaspoons for max of two weeks......stop for five days and do again....that dose level though is for big people......stomach acid is an issue....for sure dont take right before and after meals. > > Now to transdermal...this more new and experimental but of course the safest thing in the world....two big choices, throw a pound of bicarbonate into your bath and jump in.....but again add magnesium chloride (lots like 2 to four pounds) and I like some sodium thiosulfate that stuff that smells of sulphur just like a hot spring because it is the same stuff you smell at hot springs....and you have perfect trasansdermal treatment...you can also just make lotion and put on affected areas....or entire body...but I save that method of direct application for the magnesium oil.... > > Also some recent other material on bicarbonate I can share is > > http://www.imva.info/news/sodium-bicarbonate-baking-soda-cancer-treatment.html > > and this one on bicarbonate and kidney disease shows how safe or how it is used to make situations safer by protecting the kidneys.... > > http://www.imva.info/news/sodium-bicarbonate-kidney-disease.html > > > I do happen to believe that one should read everything one can when employing something to treat cancer but that said as I hope the above simple paragraph illustrates, we are dealing with some very simple stuff when we deal with bicarbonate and magnesium and just as long as you dont try to inject it your oncologist will only half freak out! > > In a week I will have a bicarbonate site up and that should help. > > By the way for the group as a whole my stand is that bicarbonate should be employed no matter what else one is doing for treatment and God forbid one is doing chemo or radiation or surgery it goes double....same with the magnesium..... for surgery for instance everything goes better if you use magnesium before, during and after.... you know like having the surgeon wash his hands before he walks in to cut you...but there are studies showing this.... > > Dr. Sircus > > PS Tami you asked for liver/pancreas mets. and that is really really serious stuff and I don't know if you are a practitioner or what and I am not suggesting that these people can be cured by bicarbonate but I can say they will be helped as long as a FULL PROTOCOL IS USED, that they are guided and supervized and dot every i and t .............. For liver I like the work of Dr. Berkenson who is the guy licenced by the FDA to do intrevenous ALA and he has had sucess mixing that with low dose Naldextrone I think its spelled but I am not free or liecenced to suggest any pharmaceutical since I am not an allopath. > > > > From: thesprout@... > > Hi Dr. Mark, > ok..that's fair enough.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Dr. Sircus, Where do you get sodium bicarbonate, sodium thiosulfate, and magnesium chloride? Is it 7 one half teaspoons a day, or one half teaspoon for 7 days? Do you have your new web site up? Thanks, Robyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
