Thanks, this is very helpful, I have recently found out that someone else in my community has lyme, has been treated conventionally with IV antibiotics, and finally got a rife machine and is taking glutathione and has noticed a great improvement the past few weeks. I will take a look at the links you sent.

I will let others give you more details on CS, but I would definitely make and take it, whatever any others outside might say, even if it were only to lower the bug-load in the body. A lot of us make up a spray with CS, sea salt, xylitol, DMSO, all things that can be looked up on archives and search engines. This can be used on skin or in any orifice. We also inhale it via a nebulizer. Yesterday I had a look at a site which addresses a lot of the things you mention, although it is supposedly about depression and magnesium. It's very long, but worth a read. The author also recommends virgin coconut oil for fungus, candida, etc. http://www.coldcure.com/html/dep.html#codex and you may have noticed recent postings on coconut oil. I will append some quotes below to give an idea, but it is over 100 pages-worth on the article page alone, let alone links. Some other things I would definitely do given my time over again: colonic irrigation - that could get rid of a lot of toxic waste, and someone wrote once that they actually saw what looked like clumps of cotton wool passing, which they assumed was candida. Maybe, nice thought. Something was freeloading inside. Gamma globulin I would feel was too dangerous. I would run a mile. Even if it were not foreign proteins in the substance itself, and other people's DNA too, no doubt, it could easily have some preservative in it that might affect you, such as thimerosal - how would one ever know? Another thing I would do all over again, as it has pulled me out of the pit, is computer assisted dermal screening, which works out what you need, and then with some electromagnetic process embeds the appropriate homeopathic frequencies on a bottle of water, so that it has the same effect as if it had been prepared to the exactly right potency for your particular needs. If you missed recent correspondence, let me know. Also, the people on the Rife discussion group have tallked a lot about Lyme - there may be someone near you who can help. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rife/ The virgin coconut oil is definitely worth looking into; you can google that alongside your chosen "problem". Rowena http://www.coldcure.com/html/dep.html#codex : "I have found some evidence that intestinal yeast overgrowth will cause the kidneys to be unable to recycle taurine, with taurine being lost into the urine. Yeast overgrowth of the intestines is also blamed for many of the arthritic-like complaints often found with scleritis, and is the likely cause of scleritis. Consequently, any effective treatment for Candida yeast should also prevent scleritis. I have found that coconut oil and garlic are effective, particularly when used with taurine. Taurine in these doses should not be considered nutritional in nature, but medicinal, and I don't recommend it. The human body only contains 70 grams of taurine, and supplements of 24 grams per day seem much too high and I took that dosage for only several weeks. Actually, I think that anything that treats inflammatory or irritable bowel disorders would be beneficial in treating or preventing scleritis. However, Kefir is the absolute cat's meow for preventing and curing scleritis. Since I started Kefir (I backed off garlic and coconut oil completely), I have had zero incidence of scleritis (for many months now), thus showing, IMHO, that taurine preservation by elimination of Candida Albicans using Kefir is vital to the cure for scleritis. Dry mouth and dry eyes are some of the most irritating side effects of many prescription anti-depressant drugs (and some other drugs). Dry mouth and dry eyes are usually symptoms of magnesium (and possibly potassium and taurine) deficiency. Dry mouth and dry eyes are very easily treated with oral ionizable magnesium - the nutrient your body is likely starving for. Use of synthetic tears and other simplistic wetting techniques including chewing gum are not solving the nutritional deficits that cause the problem. Magnesium and high potassium content foods such as bananas, potatoes and other whole foods are greatly preferable to drugs. I have found that my health improved greatly simply by using balanced potassium/sodium salts [Morton's Lite Salt - which contains iodide (iodine)] rather than by using plain table salt (sodium chloride). Use of plain table salt can easily lead to imbalances between potassium and sodium. Dry mouth and dry eyes, particularly when coupled with insomnia often precede other better-known magnesium deficiency symptoms. If promptly treated with magnesium more serious magnesium deficiency disorders such as anxiety and depression can be prevented. What about my arrhythmias? They have been totally absent now since I treated my toe with iodine. This tells me that at least some benign cardiac arrhythmias are caused by fungal infections, or the breakdown products of the fungus. How about using iodine to treat other fungal infections? How about oral thrush? Well, scientists treating AIDS patients in Kenya, disapointed at the lack of efficacy and expense of antifungals (Contrimazole, Amphotericin B and Nyastatin) have turned to dirt-cheap two percent Providine Iodine mouth washes with astonishing success. Five years ago, I complained of a severe yeast infection, and after seeing many physicians, and after being treated with many antifungals and antibiotics in the intervening years, I continued to have the problem until I used coconut oil. Also, Candidiasis (yeast overgrowth in the colon and mucous membranes) is well known to cause magnesium malabsorption, thus causing depression, heart trouble and colon cancer. Put these observations together, and presto, coconut oil looks like it is a cure for depression, cardiac arrhythmias, myocarditis, endocarditis and lone atrial fibrillations (LAF). Much more research needs to be done on the effectiveness of coconut oil in curing Candida, but for now the evidence suggests a good quality Virgin Coconut Oil is one of the best weapons in killing Candida. Much information is on the internet concerning the use of coconut oil to treat yeast infections. It is also an excellent topical anti-yeast agent for treating vaginal yeast infections. Finally, the oils in coconut oil have been tested against Candida yeast. Both capric and lauric acid found in coconut oil in very large amounts, were totally, absolutely, completely lethal to Candida yeast Long-term use of powdered sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) to brush teeth to increase the oral pH thus ridding the mouth of acid (which damages teeth) as instructed by dentists, can cause cardiac arrhythmias if one is low on taurine. The same problem occurs from ingesting too much dietary sodium chloride (salt). The main problem with brushing teeth with sodium bicarbonate is that the sodium ion is directly transported via lymphatic drainage to the heart, thus directly upsetting the delicate potassium balance which is otherwise benefited by magnesium. What would be a better oral de-acidifier for dental hygiene? Why not use magnesium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide mouth washes? My daughter, who studies neuro-psychology at The University, says that I was messing up the "action potential" between potassium and sodium, thus triggering arrhythmias. How is "Leaky Gut Syndrome" treated? First, identify and avoid things that irritate the gut such as food allergens, alcohol, caffeine, sugar (excesses cause intestinal yeast overgrowth) and drugs. Second, probiotics (life-sustaining bacteria normal and required in the intestines) such as acidophilus lactobacillus (available at pharmacies, health food and grocery stores) are needed to maintain and replace intestinal flora killed by excess magnesium ion. Only the strongest, fresh (refrigerated) available should be used, in a sufficient amount (6+ billion viable microorganisms per dose) and at a frequency (3 to 5 doses a day) to terminate diarrhea nearly overnight. Taking probiotics at times of the day different from magnesium only makes sense. Just like we would never take antibiotics at the same time of taking probiotics, we must not take magnesium with probiotics. There seems to be zero risk of overdosage using quality products, but mixed probiotic cultures may not be useful particularly if un refrigerated, because they have the habit of killing each other in warm environments when stored for a long time. If you want to get really serious about GI health, do what I do, use refrigerated 450 billion bacteria VSL#3 packets several times a day. Gas may be a side effect until the body adjusts. Ask the store clerk which probiotics have been shipped and maintained in a refrigerated state and which are the strongest. Third, psyllium husk fibers or bars without added sugar are very helpful in providing intestinal bulk and harborage for the intestinal flora. Some researchers say that damage to the gut repairable using probiotics takes from 3 to 6 months, even though diarrhea can usually be terminated within a few days. Consequently, we must avoid the temptation of early withdrawal from these life- and health-sustaining agents. Glycine (the second component of magnesium glycinate) chelates (removes) mercury from the body, and may be superior to even magnesium taurate for people with heavy metal poisoning in the short- or near-term. Citric acid and cysteine also remove mercury and appear safer for long term use than glycine." -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
