CSHelp for Strok Victims

2005-09-14 Thread Marvin Hacker

I clipped this article from:

http://thinkmedica.org/node/7?PHPSESSID=34de83842690b951b338870d01d11e8c

because, assuming that it is true, it may prolong the life of stroke 
victims who get and act on this information.

Aspirin May Be Better Than Warfarin (Coumidin ) At Preventing Strokes
Once again, the impressive anti-inflammatory and blood-thinning properties 
of aspirin have been shown to yield impressive results.


Warfarin (often called by its original brand name Coumidin) is often 
prescribed to prevent ischemic strokes. Warfarin is a blood thinner; so is 
aspirin. Warfarin was generally assumed to be better at preventing ischemic 
strokes, but the two drugs had never been compared in a study.


The New England Journal of Medicine released a study today which compares 
the efficacy of aspirin and warfarin at preventing ischemic stroke. 569 
patients who'd already suffered strokes or transient ischemic attacks were 
randomly assigned warfarin or aspirin and studied for an average of 1.8 
years. Aspirin won by a mile:


Compared with subjects who took warfarin, those who took aspirin:

 a.. suffered half as many strokes and heart attacks
 b.. were half as likely to die of cardiovascular disease
A few other interesting notes:

 a.. Looking at those subjects who died of reasons other than 
cardiovascular disease, aspirin takers were less thanone-third as likely to 
die during the study
 b.. The aspirin dosage used was 1300mg per day, far higher than the 81mg 
baby aspirins that many people take to prevent cardiovascular disease (but 
still only 4 adult aspirin a day)
 c.. The article's abstract ends with an unusually forthright conclusion: 
Warfarin was associated with significantly higher rates of adverse events 
and provided no benefit over aspirin in this trial. Aspirin should be used 
in preference to warfarin for patients with intracranial arterial stenosis.

Friends,

Can someone please give me contact info for a company/ person who sells 
the 2 mm, 99.9% silver wire.  I'm finding that looking for this on 
Google is very time consuming, having to wade through a lot of misses.


Thanks,

Re: CSCataracts

2005-04-15 Thread Marvin Hacker
Hi,

First, I send my thanks to Brickey for this idea.  I have a friend, a 
fellow member of our church who is in his 70's and had restricted vision due to 
cataracts.  He is a vet and the folks managing his case would not allow surgery 
because it wasn't that bad yet but it was sufficiently bad that he could only 
drive in daylight hours.

Due to your suggestion, I bought a bottle of flax seed oil and took it to 
him at his home a couple of years ago; asking him to put a drop in each eye 
every day.  He said that he had to do the treatment just prior to retiring in 
the evening because the flax seed oil caused his vision to become a bit blurry 
for a little while; but when he awoke his vision was as clear as before putting 
the flax seed oil into his eyes.  Within three months there was noticeable 
improvement.  Two years later, his cataracts (if there are any), are no longer 
a problem.

Speaking of looking for solutions to various health issues (someone 
mentioned this earlier), dear ones, I have found that searching the SilverList 
archives always presents good ideas.  Thank you Mike, and the folks who make 
them available!!

Best regards,
  :) Mar

  Hiya Brickey,

  It's so amazing to me; while searching via search engines for alternative 
methods of treating cataracts (specifically in dogs) I got absolutely nothing. 
When I began taking my plight to various alternative lists, I found there are 
treatments abound! And most are very simplistic. 
  If only there were enough hours in a day to create a website covering these 
methods, with scientific and anecdotal evidence, for the others that are 
searching... 

  My precious girl lost her other eye to glaucoma. I searched, begged and 
pleaded for an alternative option, but general consensus was that there isn't 
one, and we settled on eneucleation to eliminate the pain, and the need for 
drugs. Between her diagnosis of glaucoma, and the removal of the eye, the 
cataract in her *good* eye rendered her blind. She was pronounced a good 
candidate for cataract surgery (at age 12!), but at $1000 it simply isn't a 
possibility. 

  I so appreciate hearing these testimonies. They give me hope, and good ideas. 

  Thanks guys!

My dog was also one eyed, cataract covered her pupil. I bought regular 
linseed oil a gallon at Home Base (a hardware store) in their paint section and 
filled a 1 ounce bottle with an eye dropper. Every day she got one drop in her 
eye for at least two months. Her eyelids became crusty and I just stopped 
treating her. I was astonished to see the cataract shrank to a pin point and 
after several more weeks totally was gone. After seeing this I also used 
linseed oil (Flaxseed oil) in my eyes. DR said I had a bunch of small cataracts 
growing in both eyes. I had a yearly check up about 5 weeks later and DR said 
NO CATARACTS. Since then about 5 years ago the cataracts are coming back in my 
eyes, I now make my own CS so I use CS + 10% DMSO in my eye wash cup, cataracts 
are still there but not growing.

When I treated my dog I did not even refrigerate the linseed oil. I found 
that it goes rancid later so when I treated myself I kept the bottle 
refrigerated. I guess that our garage was cold enough when I treated my dog to 
act like a refrigerator.

CSFw: You gotta love Robin Williams!

  You gotta love Robin Williams..
.
  Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan. What we
  need
  now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this message.
 
 
  Robin William's plan...(Hard to argue with this logic!)
 
 
  I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan
  for peace. So, here's one plan.
 
 
  1.) The US will apologize to the world for our interference in their
  affairs, past  present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Noriega,
  Milosevic and the rest of those 'good ole boys,' We will never
  interfere again.
 
 
  2.) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with
  Germany, South Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us there. We
  would station troops at our borders. No one sneaking through holes in
  the
  fence.
 
 
  3.) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and
  leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder
  will
  be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or where
they
  are. France would welcome them.
 
 
  4.) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90
  days
  unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would be
  allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't
  hide
  here. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don't need any more
  cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.
 
 
  5.) No foreign students over age 21. The older ones are the bombers.
  If
  they don't attend classes, they get a D and it's back home baby.
 
 
  6.) The US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy
  wise. This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy but
  will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The
  caribou will have to cope for a while.
 
 
  7.) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel
  for
  their oil. If they don't like it, we go some place else. They can go
  somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells
  filling up the storage sites would be enough.)
 
 
  8.) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we
  will not interfere. They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds,
  rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them
is
  stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very
  little,
  if anything.
 
 
  9.) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island some place. We don't
  need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building
  would
  make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.
 
 
  10.) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one
  can call us Ugly Americans any longer. The Language we speak is
  ENGLISH.learn it...or LEAVE...Now, isn't that a winner of a plan.
 
 
  The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor, your
  tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's
yelling,
  'You want a piece of me?'
 
 
  ~~~If you agree with the above forward it to friend...
  If not, and I would be amazed, DELETE it !

Dave,

Instant high conductivity indicates that the water is not adequately
distilled (assuming you have not added salt or other contaminants).  As a
test, try a batch using Walgreen's Distilled Water with nothing added.

 Hi:

 One infallible remedy for yellow jackets bites is heat, it seems to cook
 the protein rendering the poison harmless.

Marshall Dudley wrote:
Are you sure it is cooking the protein?  If that were the case I would
expect the protein in your tissues to be cooked as well, resulting in a very
bad burn.

I think another explanation may be more plausible.  When you heat the skin
two things happen.  The sweat glands open up and discharge fluids and
poisons, and blood circulation increases tremendously.  Both of these would
be expected to transport the poison from the area of the bite much more
quickly than normal.

Works for any insect sting or bite. From my experience, and we have quite a
few very venomous spiders here in Australia, it works, even for our Bull
ant, his sting is very painful, takes the pain out in seconds, and seems to
either neutralize the venom or draw it out.

   The idea came from the zappers used in India for venomous snake
bites.
   Now we just use diluted or straight essential lavender oil, though,
it works as well for bug bites without the pain. Don't know if would do
anything for snake bite though..
