This is how you can get rid of pinworms another way, very easily and permanently. There is eucalyptus in Noxema. It will kill the pinworms. They have to come out at night to the anal orifice Which you should keep Slathered with Noxema and always reapply when you have a bowel movement. Wash all bedding and anything that comes into your body with hot water. In three weeks or less they will be gone. And they are serious. They are very implicated with appendicitis.   [End]

Too much Vitamin C initially can indeed make people have symptoms like diarrhea, at least with the oral kind that is not liposomal. However, I don’t remember Dr. Lam saying that there was any ”re setting” problem with C, only with other things like adrenal extracts. If you will check out Youtube vids by Dr. Levy who has thousands of case studies to refer to, you will see him (and other researchers agree) that it is impossible for any level of Vitamin C to be harmful. Again, initially you may have a reaction, but hang in there and go slowly in your increases. Sometimes we think ”Facto ...

You may already know that Yesterday I was listening to a Dr. Levy Youtube vid re Vitamin C and as a side note he mentioned digestion. One thing he said is that it really helps to separate different kinds of foods when eating, like saving the carbs for one meal and the protein for another etc. He tells about studies done on dogs that showed transit time in the bowel was way faster, way faster, if they had separation of those kinds of food items.

A physical therapist, not a doctor, told me why I was having some mild pelvic pain on one side.

Of course you never gave birth so that can’t be your problem. But indirectly I guess I am saying I hope you have gotten more than one opinion.

I think I didn’t remember right on that. So much info going by so fast. Actually it seems impossible to absorb too much Vitamin C.

Since it is reportedly associated with kidney problems, I suspect that the mild pain I get in my right kidney, when I use it, is not due to detox. I have done various detoxes of different kinds.
