Re: Benefits of drinking KT

[Guest guest]

I started drinking KT because I was having chemotherapy following

breast cancer surgery and my SIL said the detoxing effects were going

to be good for me. I dealt well with the chemotherapy and recovered

from it quite quickly.

I carried on drinking it through radiotherapy and the hospital staff

were amazed that my skin didn't burn and that I was much less tired

than they expected me to be from the treatments. The skin not burning

was probably a combination of topical application of lavender oil and

drinking KT.

I drink at least 3 x 150 mls per day, some days when i was having

treatments I would drink as much as a litre a day.

These days I am back on 3 or 4 x 150 mls a day, depending how I feel.

I am 3 months out from treatments, and still have more energy than

anybody else I know who has had similar treatments.

I started drinking KT because I was sick! I have RA, early diabetes,

chronic bronchitis, chronic uti, elevated liver function. Plus some

other stuff. Today I got blood results back: liver is normal, urine

is normal, blood sugar is normal! That hasn't happened for 5 months

(longer for the liver)! I think I've been drinking KT almost 2 months

(I'm lousy with time). I feel great, I'm moving better than my

rheumotoid arthritis has allowed in years, breathing well, and have

more energy (much improved from laying in bed most of the day). Of

course, I continue to eat healthy and drink lots of filtered water, and

bathe in filtered water also (no icky chlorine!) I only take meds for

my RA. So, life is good. Now if I could just figure out a good way to

make money with my computer at home.....deb

Hi Deb you must have a powerful scoby to get such good results in a

couple of months, glad to hear you are so much better.

How much tea - water are you drinking and what kind of tea do you use ?

I also have RA & OA have found KT to be helpful with some probs but

still have a lot of trouble with the RA-OA

if you find a way to make lots a $$$ at home let me know

Jo :-)

Jo - I think I was just so sick that I didn't have anywhere to go

but better! I just use black tea bags and maybe one or 2 green tea

bags in the brew. I drink about 24 ounces (3 cups) of KT per day

and probably 10 - 12 cups purified water per day. sometimes I drink

iced green tea (1 or 2 cups in place of water). I stilll have pain

and stiffness of RA but not as bad as before. I don't take a DMARD

anymore, I think that's what got me into trouble with my liver

before.

My rheumy wants to put me on a low dose of antibiotic therapy for RA

but I am worried that it will conflict with the KT. Any thoughts on

that?

I hope you feel less pain soon and yes, I will let you know if I

figure out a way to get rich from my computer chair! -- Deb

Deb if you take COLLOIDAL SILVER [natural antibiotic] this will not

interfere with the KT or any meds and it will help with detoxing your

liver. what's DMARD ?

I also use black & green tea with jasmine plus a couple of fruit t

bags, but also use redbush sometimes pu-erh

The suggestion of colloidal silver is definitely worth exploring I think,

but Bev recently posted what I consider to be the definitive word on

antibiotics and KT, which is, as long as it is ok to take the antibiotic

with acidic foods , it is fine to continue KT. Apparently, they caution

against grapefruit juice if there is a problem with acidic foods.

Thanks, Jo -- I will look into colloidal silver. I've heard some

other good things about it.

DMARD is a disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug to prevent severe

and permanent damage to joints, bones, and organs for people with

rheumatoid arthritis, which is an auto-immune disease (not to be

confused with osteoarthritis, the wear & tear joint disease).

There are other things that help detoxing the liver. Colloidal silver has

many risks, not worth it as far as I am concerned.
