Guest guest Posted August 7, 2000 Report Share Posted August 7, 2000 Don't use vinegar in a douche (even apple cider vinegar). Candida feeds on vinegar. A vinegar douche may make it seem that the symptoms have disappeared for a few days only to return stronger than before. ~ In a message dated 8/7/00 6:37:28 AM Central Daylight Time, sparkeyjb@... writes: << Hi Chestnut, Thank you,so much for posting all that great stuff!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2000 Report Share Posted August 12, 2000 Vinegar and water is a good douche if you DO NOT have yeast....so I've heard. I've used it to try to get rid of yeast when I didn't know better and my chiropractor friend told me that's NOT a good idea. ~ In a message dated 8/7/00 9:02:44 PM Central Daylight Time, sparkeyjb@... writes: << Hi , See,now,I never knew that!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2000 Report Share Posted December 17, 2000 Crush 5-10 cloves of garlic and soak them in 1 Qt cold pressed organic apple cider vineger. Add 1cup of this to 1.5 Qt distilled water and use that as an enema. Preferably as a 2nd enema that you hold in as long as possible. Adjust quantities and times to your comfort. kevin garlic > Hello dear friends, > > I was wondering if one takes substancial amounts of garlic - can this > help expunge and create an atmosphere intolerable to parasites - does > garlic repel or kill certain parasites within the digestive tract?

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2001 Report Share Posted June 17, 2001 When you juice garlic with your other vegetables, does it cause much of a garlic breath? I have a public business and couldn't afford the garlic breath. We have been juicing watermelon this past week and it is great. Grandkids were appalled at the beautiful red water melon being juiced. Felt it should get into the ear from being eaten instead Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(my friends juice and use garlic like me...his friends all drink beer ...so the distinction there) He would say " to get in the required amount of garlic, I used to love to cook with it, now I stand next to Edith and inhale."

I love garlic, but I have been banned from eating it by my husband. I can't smell it or taste it, but anytime I have garlic, even a small amount, my husband can't stand for me to even breathe out my nose around him. There are so many recipes with it in it. I thought about trying Breath Assure, but thought I'd see if any one has any suggestions. -Amy _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 No wonder my cholesterol is only 152. We put garlic in just about everything. It also lowers blood pressure for those of you with that problem.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2002 Report Share Posted March 3, 2002 There is a study on this but it doesnt implicate garlic in any potential effect on treatment. In the study one garlic capsule was administered twice a day and very careful pharmacokinetics studies were performed. The results were dramatic: garlic reduces the levels of saquinavir by 50%. No data was presented about other antiretrovirals, but this study questions the use of these supplements concomitantly with protease inhibitors. The therapeutic implications of this are unknown. Saquinavir is used almost exclusively in combination with ritonavir, but no data was presented about the three-way interaction. It might be that ritonavir " compensates " for the effects of garlic. It is possible that these interactions will occur when you take an overdose of " pills " with such supplements. Natural garlic when taken in food should not cause any problem. Dr Sharat Misra MD,DM,FACG Although I am a strong proponent of complimentary medicines, I do have to say that I just read an article where it was shown that consumption of garlic decreased the levels in the body of some of the anti virals used in the treatment of HIV, and they were saying it might be a concern, since garlic is used by some HIV patients to control cholesterol, which tends to rise when one has AIDS. It didn't say efficacy was reduced, but levels were lowered which may result in diminished effectiveness. So even garlic may have some circumstances where it isn't harmless.
