Diatomaceous Earth + Iodine: My 30-Day Trial Day 21

I've been having some bad detox symptoms from the protocol. I've stopped taking iodine completely for awhile, because I believe it's responsible for the symptoms. I'm up to 1 tablespoon of the diatomaceous earth every day, and have had no noticeable side effects or detox symptoms when taking it by...

Diatomaceous Earth + Iodine: My 30-Day Trial Day 11

I'm up to 2 teaspoons of diatomaceous earth a day, and 2 drops of 5% Lugol's iodine. I have noticed that I'm a big constipated, although very regular. I've been eating a lot of soup, which usually has the opposite effect, so I'm thinking that there is a diuretic effect from the DE that is causing...

Diatomaceous Earth + Iodine: My 30-Day Trial Day 7

It's been a week now since I started taking the diatomaceous earth and iodine, and this morning, I noticed something significant. I usually wake up with my fingers swollen and stiff. This morning, they were not swollen at all and there was no pain. While my knees and ankles were still a bit stiff...

Castor Oil, Scars and Eyelashes - UPDATED 12/2014

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 7/20/2011 I've been reading about castor oil lately, because it seems to have miraculous powers that coconut oil doesn't have. I mostly was reading about it because of its seeming ability to dissolve scars underneath the skin and replace them with healthy skin and to remove moles....

Lugol's 5% Iodine Eye Drops for Eye Parasites and Pink Eye

 As some of my readers may remember, I was infected many years ago with a parasite called Strongyloides stercoralis. This parasite is incurable, due to the fact that it is the only nematode that can reproduce inside your body. Because of doctors giving me steroids over the years for various...

Diatomaceous Earth + Iodine: My 30-Day Trial Days 2 thru 4

Days two and three of my diatomaceous earth protocol were non-remarkable. I had a little bit of cramping right under my ribs, and felt a little nauseous when I ate breakfast, but nothing to shout about. Something I forgot to mention before is that I am also taking 1 drop of 5% Lugol's iodine daily...

How L-Dopa Mucuna Helped My Depression and Increased My Focus

L-Dopa Mucuna is derived from the bean of the Mucuna pruriens plant, and has been used for centuries to treat depression, increase energy and boost your mental acuity and focus. I had been trying to find alternatives to caffeine and guarana, my two favorite stimulants, which weren't really working well anymore to give me energy or increase my mental acuity. I quite accidentally discovered L-Dopa...

Diatomaceous Earth + Iodine: My 30-Day Trial Day 1

By SprocketRocket CC0 via Wikimedia Commons NOTE: I changed the title to add iodine, because I started taking 1 drop of Lugol's 5% iodine daily at the same time, so I will be reporting on both. I have known about diatomaceous earth for a long time, but was hesitant to use it for some reason. As...
