Guest guest Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Sure ! mix a tablespoon into oatmeal every morning and if I don't eat oatmeal that day I mix it in apple butter and eat that and I sprinkle a tablespoon onto my dogs meal every night... thanks for the MgSO4 info... To: DimethylSulfoxide-DMSO From: BSPMerced@... Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2011 11:32:38 -0500 Subject: Intestinal Parasites Speaking of intestinal parasites, has anyone ever tried Diatomaceous Earth for them? At vet visits the doctor insisted on giving him an expensive injection for them, so I now and then mix some DE into a can of cat food and he eats it with gusto. Now our infrequent vet visits don't include those expensive shots, since the vet can't find tiny eggs under Mr. Cat's tail, which he did before. I was wondering if anyone had tried it on themselves? And as for the Epsom Salt, I usually make it into a cream with Coconut Oil. Boil it in a tiny bit of water to dissolve it, add Coconut Oil and stir till it has hardened. Put in pretty jar and rub into skin. Works nicely on rough and damaged skin. And from what I " ve been reading, Americans are almost always deficient in Magnesium, which our good old Epsom Salt has in abundance. Granny Pat in CA This was taken from the Internet and I found it extremely interesting, even though I'm not troubled with rheumatic pains. And perhaps with a few drops of DMSO it might make it even easier for it to pass the skin barrier. ---------------------------------------------------------- In other experiments using excised human skin, we found that sulfate does penetrate across the skin barrier. This is quite rapid so probably involves a sulfate transporter protein. We did not see any Mg penetration, but these experiments were conducted for a short time at only 37 degrees as opposed to the 50 degree bath temperature.To check this, 2 volunteers wore ‘patches’ where solid MgSO4 was applied directly to the skin and sealed with a waterproof plaster. Plasma/urine analysis confirmed that both Mg and sulfate levels had increased so this is potentially a valuable way of ensuring Epsom salts dosage if bathing is not available. Interestingly, both volunteers, who were + 60 years old, commented without prompting that ‘rheumatic’ pains had disappeared. Conclusion Bathing in Epsom salts is a safe and easy way to increase sulfate and magnesium levels in the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 As a Lymie, I take DE with my morning Kefir. I know that not all Lyme parasites are killed by it, but the fewer I have to carry, the better. Also, we live in a world where we are exposed to parasites all the time, and this is a good safeguard.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Have read that food-grade DE will kill intestinal parasites. Have also read that it will not kill off an infestation, but will stop them from getting started. Some people swear by it for using in the chicken's dust bath area to keep mites from getting started on them. > > > Speaking of intestinal parasites, has anyone ever tried Diatomaceous Earth > > for them?

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Magnesium deficiency is often accompanied by a thing called restless leg syndrome. A single mag oxide or mag citrate tablet at bedtime will stop that. It helps with regularity too because it is a natural stool softner. > > > Speaking of intestinal parasites, has anyone ever tried Diatomaceous Earth > > for them?

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 In regards to dogs and DE, my 2 dachsies that rarely, very rarely ever argue with each other cleaning up plates, etc. together, actually got into a nasty fight when I put some D.E. at one end of their dry dogfood pan .. they evidently thought it was soooo wonderful they had to fight and protect it! So, I've tried to make sure they get it more steadily so there is no need to argue, children! Oh, yes, .. we use it in drinks when I think of it. The use in smoothies is good. The suggestion for oatmeal sounds good. So far as what it is doing to parasites, I don't know. I know we're all healthier than we were a couple years ago, in spite of the usual aging decline, (will be 77 in a few days & feeling so much better than 10 years ago.)
