Those are wonderful sentiments - but George Carlin did not write them. It’s a rumor. Here’s the truth: This has been circulating on the Internet for quite a while...long before September 11, and is not from George Carlin. Those who know George Carlin’s views would immediately know that the comments in ”The Paradox of Our Time” do not match those of Carlin. On his website at http://www.georgecarlin.com he denies authorship and criticizes the piece. The rumor that these words were spoken on the occasion of the death of his wife are a recent addition to the eRumor, which began ci ...

Let me tell you why I used it. About 18 months ago I was desperate to get rid of toenail fungus. I heard so much about colloidal silver that I used it. It took 11 days of using it to fix my toe. I STILL have to use it like once a month or so. Anyway, after this happened, I was in a forum complaining about how, when I get my yearly ”sinus” attack from cedar here in Texas, I get ”nervous” cuz I blow my nose/sneeze - and a bit of blood comes out. Where there’s blood, there’s raw tissue, and I do NOT want some god-awful sinus infection. So someone on the forum recommended colloidal silve ...

With bile salts, I was fortunate and my stools went right back to ”pre” gallbladder removal, same color, texture, etc. Some don’t get that effect ... so I feel fortunate. You can get all the omega-6 and 9 fatty acids you need from food -- I would not bother to supplement for these at all - they’re everywhere. It’s the scarce omega-3 fats that we just have to supplement to get enough of. SharonM 1healthyboomer.com   [End]

The digestive enzymes (good ones) will have the betaine in them ... so those plus bile salts ... take as you sit to eat with a nice 6-8 0z glass of water. Then just eat. With both digestive enzymes and bile salts, always think about if you NEED them with each meal. With a raw veggie meal, chances are you’re getting enough enzymes with the veggies, so no need. And if that veggie meal has little or no fat, no need to overwhelm your system with bile salts. My approach is always to SUPPORT your system ... not TAKE OVER with supplements. Does that make sense? I have this ”use it or lose i ...

Don’t laugh ... I HAD to make the peeling stop so... I bought a REALLY good quality colloidal silver, dumped some in a jar lid ... pursed my lips, bowed my head, and let them soak in the lid for 30 minutes. 36 hours later, peeling lips are history - not a sign of peel anywhere.

I use Jarrows - mostly because I looked EVERYWHERE and could not find a brand from any company I knew except them. You CAN take too much, yes. Start with one cap and ONLY use with fats/fatty meals or you will get heartburn. Sharon http://1healthyboomer.com   [End]

Michelle - Boy, this is a tough one BECAUSE I am not a medical expert. That said ... If I had your EXACT symptoms I would assume I had nutritional deficiencies across the board and ”maybe” candida overgrowth as well. But me - I’d go after the nutrition and digestive stuff first and get that under some control. Here’s what I’d do: Take a really good digestive enzyme that includes some betaine (for improved stomach acid) and a good probiotic. Get bile salts, krill oil (1 tab), and fish oil (1 tab). Take the three together WITH food ... and early in the day. A good food to take th ...

Bile salts are just a replacement for the bile that my gallbladder can no longer store (since it’s gone). Without a gallbladder, the liver just ”dumps” bile when it feels like it. With bile salts, I take them (1 or 2 caps) just before I eat anything with fat (and before my fish oil supplements) so that the fat is emulsified (broken down into baby fat globules that lipase can actually work on). I think that all the fat soluble vitamins were just not getting through my digestive wall well either - and omega-3s likewise - untill I started on bile salts.

Jake - I don’t disagree. That’s why for my boomer buddies I recommend digestive enzymes and probiotics. Do some have thrush/cadidiasis? No doubt, yes. Are many more suffering from all manner of digestive problems? I believe so. I think we ALL have to cut way back on the white menace, eat substantially more raw vegetables, and take some digestive enzymes and probiotics. I’d also like to see a helluva lot more MAGNESIUM and trace minerals taken - and some fiber if needed. Here’s a small tidbit ... when I had my gallbladder removed, I ”seemed” to do just fine, no digestive problems. ...

We all do what strikes us at the moment for this. What I did might sound whacked, but it COMPLETELY resolved the peeling lips in under 3 days. You ready? Well, I had a GOOD quality colloidal silver I used to treat my toe fungus, and decided to pour some in a small lid. I then pursed my lips and let then soak in the silver for about 30 minutes (awkward, but I was desperate). Pain relief was almost immediate - and lips were 90% healed in under three days. now they are totally healed BUT I do soak them like this every 2 weeks. SharonM 1healthyboomer.com   [End]

OnTheJourney - Although my ”thing” is helping ”incompletely healthy” baby boomers re-balance nutritionally (and I have no idea of your age), let me offer a few thoughts. First: Creaky joints could possibly benefit from omega-3 fatty acids. If you are NOT allergic to shellfish, try some krill oil. This gets into your system MUCH faster than fish oil because it’s absorbed through the intestinal wall quickly (This is Step 2 in my health plan for boomers.) Krill oil is GREAT stuff that we all should take (if we can). Second: Many boomers experience an energy boost with ”trace minerals ...

Hey SQ -- I ”preach” if you will to baby boomers on their health -- and you’re too young for this group. BUT ... I have a decent write-up on exercise here: http://1healthyboomer.com/step1_rs.htm Read it through ... then, if you’ve got a sporting goods store around, go price the two things I mention to buy. Or look for some good deals online. If you are faithful to JUST the two exercises I recommend for 3 months, you’ll be in GREAT shape to ”advance” to equipment that might turn you on. One thing I’ve learned over the years (I’m on the wrong side of 50 now) is this: You can tell a ...

Mag -- Absolutely I forgive you, and please forgive me back. I wish you were my neighbor ... we’d have some interesting conversations -- especially comparing notes on research, frustrations, etc. I find the research stressful as well. I sooooo want to make sure I don’t inadvertenly become a mouthpiece for ANY product, if said product is a pile of crapola. The ”hype” always exceeds the health benefits for just about everything I’ve researched so far ... I take it your experience is similar? You’ll find this funny ... my website was up for a WHOLE 3 days before ”someone” from the third ...

I am who I said I am on my site. I do hope to have a picture up soon. I’m exhausted trying to get everything organized -- this has been trying. PD works for me. I suppose I didn’t start taking it with the degree of problems you had - it agreed with my digestive track, and in a little over a month I lost the thick white fuzz on my tongue (thrush) - and felt less tired. This is the probiotics I also put mom on - she’s a cancer survivor who continues to battle UTIs. So between antibiotics for serious flare-ups and d-mannose for prevention (it does a ”decent” job for 8-9 months then WHAM, U ...

Absolutely rebounding is a FANTASTIC cardio workout ... Now here’s something to bear in mind -- the average rebounder will allow you to weigh up to 300 pounds (above that you need special ones that often cost a small fortune), and you probably need a ”stabilizer” bar (so you don’t lose your balance while rebounding). I’ve got a short, sweet, to the point write-up on rebounding here: http://1healthyboomer.com/step1_rs.htm SharonM   [End]

Primal Defense does a good job - give it 6 full weeks. At the SAME time, find a GOOD garlic supplement. Garlic is very effective with many fungi including Aspergillus, Candida, Coccidioides, Cryptococcica, Histoplasma and Trichophyton. Between the two, you should get a handle on the Candida.
