Age Spots

No one yet knows everything about this phenomenon.

However, what we DO know links it to free-radical activity in the skin. Since the skin replaces itself totally, every 4 weeks, anyone should start to see results in 4-6 weks after the following:

Rub in vitamin E oil (get it from capsules since an opened bottle will have rencidity factors that CAUSE free-radicals) on any area where one wants to get rid of them. It might be a good idea at first to only do one area so you can compare and see how much the topical part of this is needed. Rub it in at least twice a day. The best way to use up the capsules without wastage is to use a needle to make a puncture in the geletin capsule and keep everything not used in the refrigerator.

Take at least 1000 units of mixed tocopherols, natural vitamin E a day orally (once a day is fine).

Take the essential oils described in the article on the homepage. [A HREF="http://bcn.net/~stoll/index.html"> Ask Dr. Stoll BBS]

Take at least 2000 milligrams of esterified vitamin C twice a day.

Avoid sunlight.

Let us know how you are doing in a few months.

One thing to think about is that this damage is happening in EVERY part of your body. Your skin is just an easy place to see it. It is likely that, as you see the spots go, you will also feel benefits in your general health.

Insect Bites

The next time this happens (an insect bite), right away put a tissue (soaked with meat tenderizer) on the site and hold it there as long as you have the patience to do so. The sooner you do it, and the longer you hold it, the more likely it will minimize the swelling.

Venom is a protein, and meat tenderizer is designed to break down protein bonds (Indeed, that is how it tenderizes meat.)

Since most meat tenderizer comes as a powder, you can wet the tissue and sprinkle the powder on the area which you are planning to press on the sting. Hold as much on the tissue as you can and apply it directly.

Iodine Deficiency

If you have an underactive thyroid, it may be partly due to an iodine deficiency Reason: your body needs iodine in order to manufacture thyrocxin, the thyroid hormone.

LuckiIy there's an excellent test you can do at home to check your iodine levels. Simply take a Q-tip, dip it into a 2% tincture of iodine (available at the drug store or supermarket), and paint an area the size of a silver dollar on your thigh or belly. This will leave a yellowish stain that should disappear in about 24 hours if your iodine levels are normal

If the stain disappears in under 24 hours, it means your body is deficient in iodine and has thirstily sucked it up. If that's the case, keep applying the iodine every 24 hours, at different sites, until the stain lasts a full 24 hours.

Not only will you have diagnosed your iodine deficiency, but you will have treated that deficiency and improved your thyroid function. Indeed, if you're on thyroid medication and you use this treatment, you'll find that you can cut back on the dosage -- or posibly discontinue the drug altogether!

Vaginal Douche

I would like to use this opportunity to get people thinking about an EFFECTIVE vaginal douche.

First of all, if anyone looks at an anatomical atlas of the vagina, they will notice that the vagina is a COLLAPSED TUBE FILLED WITH VERY DEEP WRINKLES. It is at the bottom of these wrinkles that the entire ecology of the vagina takes place.

SO, how does one get whatever is being done to the bottom of the crevasses? The vagina has to be literally blown up until there are no more wrinkles. How does one do that? Either use a fire hose (grin) OR, the person has to nearly stand on their head while douching and let gravity do it.

If the person has pelvic muscle tension, forget it. The individual has to be able to relax the muscles (give in to the douche) while sealing the lips of the vagina around the syringe & squeezing the syringe hard. That means that the syringe has to be as close to a quart as one can find. It takes more than a pint to distend the vagina in any useful way! Less will not be enough to distend the vagina EVEN IF the person can avoid leakage around the syringe AND can relax the muscles.

Your mother's syringe was exactly what really worked. The today syringes practically guarantee that the poor woman will have recurrence after recurrences. Is it any wonder why most physicians are too lazy to teach???

This is why all knowledgable physicians recommend doing the douche lying down in the bathtub with rolled up towels under the hips. If one only has a shower, the helpful physician will have a detailed handout as to how to build a special platform that fits inside & outside the shower so one can lie down with the bottom half of the person outside & the business end inside.

This is why all the syringes before 1960 had a "shield" that could be slid over the nozzle so that it would help seal the vaginal outlet & increase the pressure.

THEN, physicians got lazy about explaining and just ordered prescription stuff to temporarily treat any condition. Now, it is almost impossible to get one WITH a shield.

Understanding how to "plant" the acidophilus at the bottoms of the creases is the only effective way I know to actually change the vaginal ecology toward healthy prevention of pathogens growing there. One tablespoon of distilled vinegar/quart is the right acidity to match a healthy vaginal secretion.
