Wow! There have been some VERY PLEASANT shift/developments this week. After taking 2 1/2 days off last weekend from taking Lugol's , I am again taking 6 drops of Lugol's 2-3 times a day. (If my schedule permits me to be at home mid-day I take the third dose. I started taking the third dose after reading an interview by Dr. Gerson where he stated his protocol was giving Lugol's 6 times a day. I realized that maintaining an even blood level of Lugol's, rather than letting it go up and down, may be important.)
I have also done 2 of the hot & cold liver & kidney fomentations in the last week. Here are my observations:
1) With doing the liver/kidney H?C fomentations twice in a week, I seem to NO LONGER NEED the daily salt doses. I had suddenly started holding tons of water- really bad bloating, from the 1/2 tsp. of Real Salt each day. It's like my kidneys are working so much better that I don't need it! So, I stopped.
2) My BO has stopped. Hurray!! I still have stinky urine but that I can live with.
3) My eyesight is suddenly improving. For years I have had blurry vision in the morning. If I want to read the Bible after rising, or if I need to phone someone, I have to drag out a magnifying glass as my eyesight is too blurry to make out the words and numbers, even when the print is 12 pt. I have gone to printing out my lecture notes in 14 pt in desperation. Well, 2 days ago I had to call a morning shift co-worker at 6 am. I picked up the 11 pt phone list and could clearly read her name and phone number! I tried my Bible without magnifying glass this morning (I think it is 9 or 10 pt). It wasn't as easy to read, but I could read it with just my eyes!
4) I had done the second liver/kidney fomentations because my neck was badly out of alignment and I had quite the headache. It was difficult to tell how much of the headache was a bromine headache versus cervical originated headache. I remembered that the man who taught me hydrotherapy had told me that his experience was that when C-1 or C-2 were misaligned, it was ALWAYS a case of toxins! And, he found the liver/kidney fomentations relieved the problem. It was my lower cervical vertebrae as far as I could tell, but I did the liver/kidney fomentation anyway to see what it would do. The headache gradually resolved over the course of the day, and the BO went away and the eyesight improved. I believe toning up my liver & kidneys via the fomentations is huge is relieving my detox symptoms. I am going to continue to do the foments weekly.
For anyone concerned about the amount of extra salt they are taking, especially if they have any heart conditions, the fomentations may will be an alternative.
Also, for those struggling with unpleasant detox symptoms, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Just keep looking forward!
My eczema that was on my left forearm (only place I had it & x9 months) is now completely gone. My skin is still very dry so I am still VERY deficient in iodine. Wonder what life/health will be like when I hit full body saturation!
Would you please share some more info
on the fomentation? I did a search in
this forum and on Curezone and did not
find info but would be interested in
using them.
"I remembered that the man who taught me hydrotherapy had told me that his experience was that when C-1 or C-2 were misaligned, it was ALWAYS a case of toxins!"
Would you mind posting more info on this subject?? I started some Blair chiropractic last year. Blair chiros focus on adjusting your cervical vertebrae.
For a while, I have suspected that whether I am "out" and need adjusting has to do with my current state, and that I probably move "in" and "out" depending on how many toxins I am releasing. I am interested to know if others have experienced this - that if it's not worth worrying about the chiro & just focus on cleaning myself out, and then my body will realign on its own?
I have been "out" a lot more since the beginning of this year. A few different things are going on: I'm stressed, though possibly not necessarily more stressed than last year (when I was making "good progress" with the chiro). I get less exercise this year (unfortunately). And I've been detoxifying myself, particularly with the Iodine & with Lower Bowel Balance & an herbal kidney cleanse tea.
Congratulations on the great progress report! That is wonderful news!
I too am interested in hearing more about the C1 and C2 being out and how
that is affected by toxic release--my C1 and 2 are often out too.
And do please post the kidney fomentation info as well--I remember seeing it
sometime before The Crash!
Thanks
Please elaborate more on what you're doing for this. I've developed a neck problem since higher dosing with Iodine that I suspected was due to toxin release also.
when the liver is overwhelmed it backs up into the neck and shoulders. this is part of what ear wax is. when your shoulders and neck are sore, it is toxins. this is why stress can cause this because stress produces lots of acids and such.
my suggestion, beyond learning to cope with stress and eating right, is to use hot baths and a good lymph massage. get the lymph moving - cold sitz bath, rebounder, etc.
I don't have lot a lot more to tell about C-1 & C-2. I was being taught by a massage therapist who used a lot of hydrotherapy in his practice. He had John Harvey Kellogg, MD 's books on "Rational Hydrotherapy" (that's the title). He got a lot of his information from those books, but not all. He told me that it had been his personal experience & observation on himself and then with clients that whenever the upper cervical vertebrae went out of alignment that it was always connected with toxins/ toxic load. He said that he had found that the H/C fomentations over the liver & kidneys took care of the toxin problem and then the vertebrae went back into alignment on their own!
Several weekends ago I developed a muscle spasm in my neck (it was on a Friday evening). I tried hot & cold over the muscle. It had almost no effect which shocked me. I need to mention that I had been on Lugol's several weeks and was up to 4 drops twice a day. Anyway, I went to bed. Saturday morning I couldn't even turn over in bed without reaching my hand up and supporting my neck. I made it out of bed and took a couple of steps and I guess I moved my head a little. The level of pain with the spasm went off the scale, dropping me to the floor! For those that are familar with anatomy, I think the muscle was the left splenius capitis. Anyway, I knew I had to do something. Then I remembered about the liver/kidney foments for the upper cervical vertebrae and even though this was a muscle (a very loud muscle) and not a vertebrae, I decided to try it. The pain reduced while I was doing the foments. It wasn't gone as the muscle was very sore once it wasn't in spasm anymore. But, it was a very liveable level of discomfort and over the course of the day, the soreness resolved. By bedtime that evening I was back to normal.
So, I am pondering a new theory that just maybe, except for accidents like whiplash injuries, your average run-of-the-mill needing to go to the chiropractor might just as easily be solved with H/C foments over the liver/kidneys. I don't know yet, but... I have now had 2 separate events (the muscle spasm and the lower cervical vertebrae episode) that have responded to the H/C foments. Whether the foments will always work has yet to be explored. Whether they will do anything at all for say a herniated disc or the likes? Maybe not. But I think for the usually 'oh I tweaked my back, gotta go see the chiropractor' I think I am going to experiment some more with the foments and see just what they will work for. Especially since I am clearly still detoxing.
Wow, thanks for that post! My C1 and C2 has been out for YEARS and I've gone to the Chiro so many times and they can't put it back....hmmmm...I wonder why?
That explains why I'm have massive Iodine detox reactions. Have not had the chance yet to do the H/C Fomentations, I'll start tomorrow.
I would just love to have my neck straight (or is it my head on straight instead of Bromine Brain?) lol!
I have got to tell you guys that this fomentation worked for me last night. I had a huge migrane that was in my head, jaw and neck. I had just started painting with Iodine and also did a lot of rife frequencies to kill viruses and lyme. That can cause a lot of die off.
I did a search in this forum on headaches and came to your post. The fomentation didn't look like it would do much, but it did. On about my 5th round of hot/cold, I stretched my neck and it cracked on it's own. I felt significantly better after that, and actually was able to sleep. Normally with a headache like that it would gone on through the night and possibly for days.
While I don't feel perfect today, The headache & jaw/neck pain is radically better. Thanks so much for posting this technique!
