Now I have been banned from the Adrenal Support forum over these posts, which I do not even see as a violation of TOS. There are no attacks and no names mentioned on my part yet I still got banned for these:
The product of pickling lime that the Moreless protocol suggest is not found in a hardware store next to the concrete. It is found in the food section
These are the same exact products just packaged differently. There is not a caustic used in cement calcium hydroxide and a different used in food calcium hydroxide. Calcium hydroxide is calcium hydroxide, and all of it can burn the skin and other tissues if it contacts the tissues in the presence of moisture. This is a characteristic of ALL hydroxides since all hydroxides are caustic. This is why there are warnings on the bags or containers warning against skin and eye contact.
and is used for pickling cucumber pickles. It is calcium hydroxide and used in many industres including building materials but because of its low toxicity and the mildness of its basic properties, it is widely used in the food industry.
Again, it is a caustic material, which is why when used to make various foods it is removed or neutralized before the food product is given to the public. For example, you mentioned pickles. What else is used in making pickles? That is right, vinegar (acetic acid), which neutralizes the caustic calcium hydroxide.
And as I pointed out in an earlier post hydroxides are also used to make hominy. It is also used to treat other seeds/grains in a process called nixtamalization. Again though the hydroxides are removed or neutralized in the final product before giving them to the public due to the dangers of ingesting hydroxides. If you want to read more on the process here is a link:
Note in the link that the seeds/grains are washed, which removes the dangerous hydroxides before the products go to market.
It has been used as a calcium supplement in mineral fortified baby formulas.
Not likely. The most common calcium source used in supplements is calcium carbonate because it is the cheapest calcium available, even less costly than calcium hydroxide. The only reason they would even consider using calcium hydroxide in a baby formula would be to adjust the pH of a solution back to a neutral or near neutral pH if the formula contains acidic ingredients.
when someone effectively cures themself of MS, the correct response is either 'congratulations' or 'how did you do it', assuming that you are not familiar with the protocol they used.
Being that I don't recall seeing anyone claim a cure of MS in this thread why would I have said either one of those?
anything else just makes you look bad.
Because I did not respond to something in a way you think I should have over something that was never said?
when you start equivocating and speculating about the amount of lemon juice or this or that, you are just digging your own hole deeper and deeper.
No I am not. Not even close. I am simply bringing up some very basic, solid facts about the chemistry involved and the potential dangers. Let me take this to the other extreme to give you an example. What if someone said drinking sulfuric acid would cure everything? But then they say if you add some calcium hydroxide to neutralize the sulfuric acid it will all of a sudden make it safe to ingest. Would you try it? Are you going to 100% certain that you will put enough calcium hydroxide in to the solution as to not eat your tissues with any traces of acid without having the equipment to measure the pH? In essence, without the proper testing equipment people are playing Russian Roulette with their health since they can easily leave enough hydroxide in the solution to burn their tissues. No wonder so many people complained about injuries after following the protocol. Of course as I pointed out those messages were quickly deleted when they came up. But the PMs I received from people injured by this protocol were not.
And hydroxides will neutralize the stomach acid as well, which again leads to a whole host of problems. This includes the formation of nitrates/nitrites and methemoglobin from the alkalinity in the stomach that the promoter of this protocol claims is so dangerous:
So unless there is enough lemon juice added to make the drink slightly acidic the drink poses health risks!
If people want to do this protocol regardless why don't they do it safely by starting with calcium citrate to begin with, which is what the lemon juice and calcium hydroxide form? This way they can ingest their calcium, which has already been pH adjusted for safety by people with the proper equipment to do this. No worrying about if they added enough lemon juice to neutralize all the caustic, stomach acid neutralizing and methemoglobin promoting calcium hydroxide.
These posts were erased while all the posts supporting this protocol, which belong in the Moreless forum in the first place, were left up. Luckily I made copies first since good information has a tendency to disappear around here.
Does the Webmaster and moderators realize that they are increasing their liability if someone gets hurt from a protocol in which they hid known dangers? Yes, that is right. If someone gets hurt and decides to sue the Webmaster and the moderators themselves can be held just as liable since they contributed to the injury by deliberately hiding known dangers that were made public.
And yes, people can get hurt from drinking calcium hydroxide. That is why there are warning labels on ALL bags of calcium hydroxide to avoid tissue contact!!!
Also as I said before this is why alternative medicines are being held back so much. It is still the wild west in many ways where anyone can can make any wild claim without any evidence and when there are dangers involved they are swept under the rug. So people get hurt, lawsuits get filed and groups like the FDA say "see, alternatives are dangerous, which is why we need to regulate them". As long as Curezone is based on politics and not healing and proper information Curezone is going to remain part of the problem as to why alternative medicines are not openly accepted.
It would be interesting to know who the moderator was that banned me. I have no doubt that it was a supporter of that protocol, which is why the warning posts were deleted, while the misleading information was left behind. Again, moderators need to be screened against conflicts of interest so people do not end up getting hurt from suppressed information of protocol dangers. For example, this woman who has posted twice with no response from the supporters of the protocol:

I seem to have overalkalized my body and need to go back int the opposite direction. I'm thinking now that the problems that I have been having lately has been overalkalinity...
What do I do about this situation???

I posted this message and there was no response. Could I get someone's assistance please. My stomach seems overalkaline, not enough stomach acids, since I've been alkalizing for a long time. My PH stays at about 7.25 to 7.50. When I notice that I'm not feeling well, I check my PH and it is above 7.50 but my stomach is in knots since trying to use the Lime Water again and my digestion stopped! I know a few others who have had the same problems, but we cannot seem to find easy answers. I would, however, like to understand why I am not too alkaline...
My nails are chipping off and not growing and my hands get puffy.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Unbelievable. The moderator has to be one of his "followers". It is and always has been beyond me why anyone would believe anything that man has to say. The demeaning way he talks to people disgusts me. I've had my own encounters with his dark personality. He's banned from the Christian forum, thank God. You said nothing out of line, just stated the facts.
Anyone know who moderates the adrenal support forum??
I would like to know myself because I have no doubts that the person is a Moreless supporter. Otherwise the off topic message would have been moved to the Moreless forum where it belongs and where nobody could point out that all bags of calcium hydroxide clearly give warnings about not contacting tissues. One of these days someone is going to get hurt and sue the hell out the Webmaster and the moderators for there role since deliberately hiding known dangers makes them legally liable for someone's injuries. Then maybe the Webmaster will finally wake up!!! It is just a shame to think that it looks like this is what it will take for things to change for the better around here.
By the way, notice a troll has already shown up and started with the negative voting? They are so predictable!
My post about the dangers of 'pickling lime' was also removed.
What is so bad about mentioning lime is dangerous to ingest? I'm just stating what it says on the package.It's an industrial product not a foodstuff.
Yes. It also irks me because the posts should never been on the Adrenal Support forum in the first place, it should have been on the Moreless forum. But clearly the moderator who removed the posts and banned me is a Moreless supporter, which is why they did not simply move the thread to the Moreless forum so that anyone wanting to warn of the dangers could not respond.
So were also banned from the Adrenal Support forum as well Ruffneck, or was I being specifically targeted again by a con-TROLL-ing moderator?
I'm not banned in there , just stating my post was removed by a moderator in the thread you mention.When i checked the thread yesterday moreless' post was also removed so i don't think the moderator is 'Pro-ML' so to speak (I thought that guy left CZ anyhow) , in fact i can't say why all those posts were removed.
I can't find the thread at all today , maybe it was deleted overnight.
The reason the Moreless post was removed was because it was clearly an attack and thus a TOS violation unlike our posts.
But the post which has a heading of how the Moreless drink helped them was not moved to the Moreless forum where it belongs since it was posted in the Adrenal Support forum even though it had nothing to do about the adrenals. Another reason I believe the moderator is a Moreless supporter.
I sent yet another PM to the Webmaster so I will hopefully see what his excuse is this time. Personally I think he needs to get rid off all the support forum moderators and start from scratch making sure there are no conflicts of interest and that they will do their job WITHOUT prejudice.
I didn't vote on your post but I agree with the part where you suggested for Hv to turn off his voting system. I think it's a good idea.
If someone knows how to do it let me know, or if one of the other moderators can do it go for it. I would never have allowed such a stupid thing on this site a long time ago if I knew that it could be turned off. Again it is troll magnet. Every time something is posted about the quackery here on Curezone such as "liver flushing" and alkalinizing the trolls gang up and start hitting the negative votes as a game.
Say it aint so.
CZ taught me all disease was caused by acidity. Acidity is caused by parasites. And the cure for parasites is mega doses of Iodine.
But you can cure al of it by drinking a lot of olive oil, lemon juice and magnesium sulfate to create soap stones that you can pick out of your feces because you are gullible!!!
I think it is immoral to have support forums promoting this quackery. I guess the WM doesn't take the motto at the top of the curezone page very seriously.
I agree. Just like how much in the way of pharmaceutical drugs are pushed on these forums, especially the Candida and Adrenal Support forums.
I, for one, am very glad there are people such as yourself, and as few others, that actually take the time to post credible information, explaining the very real dangers with some of the chemicals and protocols promoted here.
Thanks.
I know who the mod is there and I have reported her before because she allowed such awful attacks of Dr. Lam. They crucified him there. He eventually left Curezone.
In my opinion Mr. H. you may be better off not being part of any community who bans you. I am banned several places also and I say good riddens. One of those places is the Moreless forum and I was banned for religious reasons, idiots.
The reason it irritates me is that I have information that can help many of those people. But the con-TROLL-ing moderators on some forums have been doing their best to corral me to my own forum or drive me off of Curezone altogether. Funny thing is that one of these moderators has violated TOS time and time again with attacks on me and others as well as starting debates among others. Yet he is not being banned, nor is he being made to post only in his private forum. All of this just further proves that Curezone is all about politics, not healing.
I have noticed a big drop in daily posting here on Curezone. I think people are finally realizing it is all about politics and a lot of bogus information. If the WM does not do something to correct the political atmosphere here I would not be surprised if Curezone pretty much just dwindles away.
I also suggest you turn off your voting system as your haters come to your forum and give many of your posts and your friends negative votes not because you speak but because who you are.
I would have done that a long time ago if I knew it could be done and how to do it. The voting system is nothing but a joke here on Curezone and a troll magnet.
Ok, go to the top of your forum and click on description. Then it will ask you if you want to edit forum name, etc. Click there. You will see some areas where you can check to delete voting both yes and no. You may want to keep the yes voting active so people can see who is in favor of your posting. Funny to see how many people come to your forum. This weighs heavy in your favor.
Thanks Sarah,
Looks like it worked. Thanks for telling me how to do that. Should keep more of the trolls away since they cannot come here to play the negative voting game.
