So practice on a daily basis would improve your health.

You didn't mention if you cleared the parasitic problem. You have to make sure that your system is clear of parasites and you are taking the proper nutrition, this is always the first step to basic health. Other peoplee here could probably be knowledgable here.

thanks...I did a few major detoxes..........stretching is my best bet yet.

A couple of tablespoons a day will do the trick.
It takes some time before it works though...
Couple of weeks I believe...

I forgot as to how it works...My wife just told me to DO IT! hehe!

I have been taking black cherry juice,I'll look for the syrup,....she must be a good woman....

www.functionalmedicine.org and find a practitioner! They are chiros (like me), medical doctors, osteopaths, etc.
I have not seen you or tested you, therefore, I cannot just give blind advice.

thanks....

Massage help maybe?

How is your living situation and/or your emotional/environmental stressors?

Or the now FAMOUS vitamin D3 cure all may help (geez - hope im not becoming another one of those people who push cure-alls)

Magnesium, Folic acid, Boron, Malic acid, Calcium mix?
i.e. Viridian Brand - Calcium, Magnesium with Boron Powder.

Hot soaks in EPSON salts? (Magnesium)

Do you like to eat Salmon? If so.... eat eat eat some oily Fresh Salmon

Lots of people here to help with ideas.

i wish for You quick healing and No more pain ASAP.

Thank-u for all the advice...........peace

Hey M, the chemical in red wine is called Resveratrol and I don't think it is used for Arthritis but rather for the heart and circ. system, but still very good for you! Muscadine Wine actually has ten times the amounts of resveratrol as compared to just regular red wine. Did you say something about psoriasis?, if so I highly recommend a product called Diflorasone Diacetate ointment! .05%, works everytime and fairly quick. Also for both Arthritis and Psoriasis you can get Hydrocortizone or Prednizone all from the dermatologist, can't always go natural! I almost guarantee the ointment, good luck.P.S. You can always take fish oil pills too, there are some good ones out there!

Something else that I personally have found to work very well is an herb called Cat's Claw. There are two different varieties of it: one is called Uncaria tomentosa and the other is Uncaria guariensis. The one you want is Uncaria tomentosa, so make sure that if you buy capsules at your local health food store, that the Cat's Claw you buy says 'U. tomentosa' somewhere on the label.

Cat's Claw has been the subject of several medical studies with osteo-arthritis patients, and it turns out to have serious anti-inflammatory properties. There have also been tests done on animals, and the herb is in veterinary use. In its native setting (the Amazon Basin), it is used for many different types of inflammatory conditions, including arthritis and urinary tract infections. I started taking it because of an injury to the thumb on my right hand, and it worked so well that I started giving to my aged (14 years old) dog, whose back legs are rather 'creaky' these days. It has made a huge difference in her range-of-motion, so I'm not the only one it's working for, and animals are not subject to the placebo effect, either.

In addition, I second what others have had to say in this thread about Vitamin C, anthocyanins (the anti-oxidant pigments in cherries, pomegranates, blueberries, etc.), and Flax Seed oil (Omega-3 fatty acid). Omega-3 oils are also anti-inflammatory as well as being brain-protective.

I have also had personal experience with acupuncture, which I have found works very well for a number of different things, but it does usually require a series of treatments. It also has been employed in veterinary medicine with good results, so again, said results can't have anything to do with a placebo effect.

I am also adding you to my 'send healing energy to' list, so when I meditate, I will be sure to send something your way.

Peace,

Wow. So many suggestions here!

Louise Hay says in her book Heal Your Body that physical conditions are the 3-D manifestation of emotional/psychological states reinforced by persistent thought-patterns. Here are her definitions:

Arthritis is [quote]: "Feeling unloved. Criticism, resentment."
The affirmation to use to form a new thought pattern is [quote]: "I am love. I now choose to love and approve of myself. I see others with love."

Gout is [quote]: "The need to dominate. Impatience, anger."
The affirmation to use [quote]: "I am safe and secure. I am at peace with myself and with others."

Ringworm is [quote]: "Allowing others to get under your skin. Not feeling good enough or clean enough."
The affirmation [quote]: "I love and approve of myself. No person, place or thing has any power over me. I am free."

Psoriasis is [quote]: "Fear of being hurt. Deadening the senses of the self. Refusing to accept responsibility for our own feelings."
The affirmation [quote]: "I am alive to the joys of living. I deserve and accept the very best in life. I love and approve of myself."

I always refer to Louise Hay whenever anything physical is happening with myself. Here is how I use the information: Basically I just read it and drop the thought into my consciousness/subconscious. I might ponder for a moment or two whether I feel that what she says could possibly refer to me. (Usually it does!) And I contemplate the affirmation and see how I feel about that too. Usually I find that I need to be doing something different in my life.

The metaphysics I know says that the physical is the last level of manifestation, and that problems ignored or not dealt with at other levels (mental, emotional, spiritual) WILL find physical expression. I offer these thoughts for contemplation. Perhaps they will help in some way.

That's really neat I think I will check that out more! Thanks and peace!

Many people swear that wearing a "lakhovsky coil" cures arthritis. This is nothing more than a belt made of copper wire (the thicker the copper wire is the better) worn around the waist, so a DIY-job should be relatively simple. Apparently Mr. lakhovsky provided a considerable amount of hard evidence that copper's effects are beneficial to all life, showing that tumors in plants would just wither and die in a relatively short time. No side effects either so nothing to lose. Google for more info.

I suffer from severe bone decay and walk with a limb for about two years I was a celebrex freak, at night my leg and hip had a song very familiar to those of us suffering from arthritis, OUCH, OUCH, OUCH !!! The solfeggio frequencies help to eliminate my pain 99.9 %. Hey now I can walk without a limb and I sleep like a baby. I have not heard the familiar song for almost a year now. Hey it WORKS !!! Hooray !!! I am just extactic with joy. My lungs did not function and my heart was severely damage , now I can run and lift objects without pain or getting dizzy. At work I am responsible for remodeling 3 buildings . The last year due to the solfeggio frequencies I can honestly say I am a new man. I hope this helps. Try it you'll like it. The solfeggio frequencies has become my life work. Why do they work ? It is like getting a mind and body tune up

Check with your doctor, they will have a toxic, ineffective and expensive treatment for your condition. If it doesn't kill you and you still want relief, you may need to think for your self and become self-responsible and self educated. The following is a guideline to follow. Don't do what I say, become your own expert and do what you say.

To understand calcium deposits in joints, kidneys and arteries (arterial plaque) you need to read about nano-bacteria. There is a big controversy over weather or not it is alive but that is irrelevant. It self replicates and forms calcium film around itself and builds up much like sea coral and tarter on your teeth. The inflammation around arthritic joints is a reaction from your immune system to deal with the foreign infection. Since the nano-bacteria protects itself from your immune system with a calcium bio-film, it continues to grow and grind away your joint. The solution to this problem is a two pronged attack:
To stop feeding the nano-bacteria, avoid all refined carbohydrates like white flour, white bread, white rice, white sugar, white pasta, high fructose corn syrup etc. Eat oatmeal, sprouts and salmon (wild caught).
The second thing to do is dissolve the calcium deposits. Do this with apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, magnesium, vitamin D, omega 3 and any other folk remedy that is a known cure for arthritis or known to reduce inflammation (oatmeal for example).
Definitely buy a juicer and juice remain lettuce, carrots, apples etc.
Eliminate all hydrogenated oils from you diet.

John Wayne the actor used to wear a copper bracelet for years and you can see it in the movies.

what helped me was a product called chondroflex from nutrisana.
It is a mixture of gluccosamine and condroitin but you have to keep moving your body in a way it doesn't hurt you (swimming,cycling) while you take it.
Check your eating and drinking habits.
Go to the sauna and most important of all try to love your body although
it is giving you a hard time at the moment.

I just posted a message concerning the book: SLIM SPURLING'S UNIVERSE. Get it as fast as possible, read it, and when you perceive the truths in contains, get the devices you wish to have.
While I personally cannot guarantee a complete healing, I'm very sure the devices will push your health in that direction.

OTHER OPTIONS:
1) Colloidal Silver. Recommended book: COLLOIDAL SILVER by Mark Metcalf. The liquid I purchase is SUPER SILVER SOLUTION, but you can make your own if you wish.
2) Oxygen supplements. Book: FLOOD YOUR BODY WITH OXYGEN by Ed McCabe. In the book: recommended supplements.
3) pH supplements. Book: THE PH MIRACLE by Robert Young. Personally, I use the pH supplements provided by www.ph-ion.com (ph booster), but there are many others on the market.
The above 3 can be done together, 2) and 3) actually enhance each other.
All this information is not just dry, academic knowledge, I use all of them, some for years now, I KNOW they work! At least for me and my particular health problems.
If you try them and find good results, please let me know, I would love to see someone else benefit from them. My e-mail address is [email protected].

Hope this will help, as a Nurse you tend to notice differences in your patients wellbeing, as it is part of the care plan, IE Assesment, Plan, Impliment, Re-assess. The re-assessment also including, what the patient eats and any changes physiologicaly.
I noticed that all the patients who had Arthritus/and similar conditions, when they had eaten cheese in particular, dairy products or red meats, this would increase the pain along with decreased mobility. It has since been found through research, that these food sources do affect those with Arthritus, it stimulates what we call the Histamines, which stimulate the antigens which envelope IE the bacteria, the antigens normaly function as a protector of the body from bacteria, however if you stimulate it too much, it starts to attack the body, it attacks the synovial membrains, this is the tissue that is in between the joints.
when the synovial membrain is affected, the bones then rub together and causes pain and sometimes small noduels to form, sometimes, depending on what type of auto immune disease it is, deformity will also be evident. I am not very good at explaining things, but I hope it helps a little, the Doctor could probably give you a booklet explaining the ins and outs of the disease, better than me.
What I would suggest, is, if you want to see if this makes any difference, ask your GP if he can give you some advice, and a dietry plan, so you don't become defficient in any vital vitamins etc, when ommiting these food sources out of your diet.

Honey, your DIET IS KILLING YOU. FOOD IS THE PROBLEM; and rethinking how you eat and what you eat is what will facilitate your feeling better.

I'm a dietitian, and I have a free book on-line to help you assess where you (and your body type) are with eating. It's only about twenty pages of self-tests, no commercials, no credit card numbers. With the symptoms you're expressing, I'd say right off, your diet is TOO ACID-forming. Alkalizing yourself can be done by choosing greens, beans, seaweeds, dried fruits and red wine in addition to eating adequate protein, which amounts to about 50 grams a day of meat, fish, fowl, eggs or cheese (being careful about obtaining non-polluted, non-drugged protein foods).

It is God's will for you to feel good and have the strength to endure difficulties; being sick is no blessing, not for you nor anyone else. Good luck!

Cordially, Shechaiyah

Copper bracelet do the trick

You are full of toxins destroying your immune system and it is going haywire on you.

Eat organic products. Use organic cosmetics, make your own lotions. Find a foods for healthy living store to shop at and change your way of living. Garbage in garbage out.

bee venom resets the immune system.

Also try glucosamine condroitin with msm. It takes three weeks for the joints to lubricate from the supliments so be patient. Sunlight works best for psoriasis. Nothing better and vitamin D is essential for everything in our bodies. Minerals are vital for skin conditions. All bottled water is filtered to death and floridated besides. Minerals are life and death. Get some.

I assume you mean the non parasitic fungal ringworm.

Clear the toxins from your body and eventually your immune system will function normally.

For me i would start a blood cleanse ( Burdock,red clover, dandelion,yellow dock )
Then i would make up a paste ( cayenne,burdock,wintergreen, willow ) and apply to area. ( carefull not to get the paste on sensitive skin )

[bennycog]

i have been diagnosed with cronic arthritis in the ankles. can these posts relate to my diagnosos. or is it totally different?

[Shechaiyah]

Arthritis is pain due to excess acid affecting joints and bones.

Calcium starts depositing where it doesn't belong, as a cushion against caustic acids.

A macrobiotic diet and lots of fresh raw food help greatly.
