Dear TizMe, You make me giggle... P.S. added.
...Family photos, indeed!!!
Did you mean you could see the imprints of CRITTERS, after a castor oil pack???
Holy Smoke!
Darn trouble with my
CO flush, as soon as one thing was out of the gallbladder area, another slid into its place.
Right now, it feels like a pocketful of damp sand...inside.
Sigh!
...I did get a goodly sprinkle of 'chaff', on top of the water, the last trot in the event above.
Didn't care much, then, in the joy of relief of pressure...but now, pressure, only slightly less than before...but building daily.
Took another small swig just now, in the middle of eating half an orange. Gad, that's vile stuff!!!
I rapidly wiped my mouth with an orange segment, and chomped.
Thank goodness orange is the perfct foil!
Dh just brought me a pretty bowl of freshly cracked hazelnuts. Husbands are wonderful creatures, aren't they?! Bless 'em!
I have a sneaky suspicion much of my discomfort comes directly from dental work. And from loosening deposits of it, so I have been reading like mad.
The good Zoebess mentioned cilantro and
Bentonite clay in the same breath...and suddenly I remembered that we have a CASE of Pascalite...twelve pounds!
It puffs like talcum powder, but is still 'gritty' to chew...so a little stirred at the last into green smoothies would be just right.
Cilantro and/or other green tasties, to disturb deposits; nut milk, say, hazelnuts or brazils (add very little water in the blender, at first...then increase slowly); fruits/veggies (even a bit of cooked squash, or dehydrated squash chips, powdered); any juices; plus a spoonful of fine clay, to absorb heavy metals and carry them out...I'm getting thirsty to gulp that stuff!
Good oils could be in there, too. Perhaps even a small bit of you-know-what!
Did you know that someone on You-Tube shows that unsweetened cranberry juice coats ecoli in the bowel, and makes them slide right on out! The barbs that would normally hook on to tissue, can't. There's a couple of other things with barbs that I'd like to try it on, too.
When we were making cranberry sauce over the holidays, we cooked up a pound with 1 cup of water, nothing else, simmered for 10 minutes, and then poured off the excess juice into a jar I can sip from. The berries went into another jar in the fridge, with whatever sweetener we felt like...ready to use.
The unsweetened juice is quite tolerable and refreshing...not tart at all, to my taste.
Remember that plums, prunes, and cranberries are the only fruits that make us more acidic...depends on how much we consume, I guess.
TizMe, do you suppose that big critters can live outside the organs, say, in the midriff area?
There were times I could have sworn...!
That's the time to get out the castor oil packs, I think...though I have the lazy-man's preference to simply slather it on, add an old towel or two, and a hot water bottle.
Would you have to set the alarm clock if you were using a heating pad?
You'll forgive me if I don't send regards to the...uh...little ones. They're moving out anyway. Grin.
My best to you and dh and all the humans living there, or visiting.
This is already a fine year! ...And building!
Go, my friends!
Fledgling
P.S. Did I tell you I found my $1 garage sale zapper? Suddenly there it was, in a red plastic bag, on my bureau...like magic.
Now, that's 7 minutes on, 20 minutes off, repeated three times, right? ...Using damp paper towels on the copper handholds.
The last time I did it, months ago, I held one hand to my midriff, too. Something felt 'lighter' afterwards...another adventure!
