Which Thyme and Pine oils?
Hey Matt, my local supplements store (independent mom & pop locally owned brick and mortar shop, I like supporting them out of princilple)
has a limited product line of essential oils, more brands of Oregano than anything, I bought Natural Factors brand since it claims minimum of 80% Carvacrol and was one of the better price points. It’s pretty strong tasting and smelling stuff. my first dose was about 0.5ml sublingual, and I was glad I had a strawberry milkshake in my car with me to help wash it down!
As for Thyme, they had no Thyme capsules but had some essential Thyme oils,actually meant for aromatherapy but 100% steam distilled oils with no added carriers or additives.of any kind. Claims to be GCMS tested for purity. Brand is Pranarom. Label says external use only and no contact with eyes or mucus membranes, and to dilute with plant oils before using topically. They had two kinds Thyme ct Linalol and Thyme ct Thymol. The lady that runs the store says that people do buy these for internal consumption and blend a few drops into honey and a little butter and mix it up well. She also said The Linalol version was what her reference book said to use for parasites. It’s composition is this in percentages:
Linalol 72.04
Linalyle acetate 6.21
β-Caryophyllene 4.40
Thymol 3.92
p-Cymene 1.71
Geraniol 1.14
γ-Terpinene 1.09
The Thymol version is:
Thymol 46.80
ρ-Cymene 19.18
γ-Terpenine 9.60
Carvacrol 4.60
Linalol 4.13
β-Caryophyllene 1.88
β-Myrcene 1.61
Terpeninene-4-OL 1.59
α-Terpinene 1.35
Borneol 1.24
α-Thujene 1.22
Camphene 1.00
Based on the storekeeper’s recommendation I bought the Linalol version...
I also have a bottle of finely ground Thyme spice and a near endless supply of gauge 00 empty gelatin capsules.
Recommendations?
Also for the pine needle oil, they have many different versions of that:
Black Spruce, Balsam Fir, Douglas Fir, Silver Fir, Scotch Pine and Yellow Pine.
Any recommendation on which one of those I should buy?
BTW, I’ve identified Mansonella Ozzardi as a fillarial infection I’ve got.
You were absolutely right about these infestations happening as layered multiple species.
So far, I’ve identified and eliminated Fasciolopsis Buski, Fasciola Hepatica (thank God i’ve only seen less than a dozen of those come out and they ceased, thanks to 6 doses of triclabendazole spread over 6 weeks, Schistosoma Haematobium (this and the F.Buski were eventually wiped out by repeated 60mg/kg body weight doses of praziquantel.
Combining praziquantel, fenbendazole and pyrantel pamoate has revealed the Mansonella Ozzardi and a mysterious segmented large diameter armored-with-scales creature that I’m not sure is a worm or what the hell it is but it’s intestinal, I’ve passed at least a half dozen of these, two of them had spherical shaped heads an
inch in diameter and almost looks like a cross between a lobster tail and the body of a centipede. They’re covered and tangled up in dendrites that look more plantlike, greenish yellow emanating out of a single central pore in the belly of each segment, and small Mansonella Ozzardi are inside them and coming out of them. It seems as though the mansonella are using these as an intermediate host in lieu of an insect, to form a complete reproductive cycle inside me. I’m now taking Praziquantel, fenbendazole, and Ivermectin and this has killed off a lot of the mansonella, but not what looks like the most mature adults. It might have killed off the last of those mysterious..... things. First time I saw one I used the freaked out phrase of “OMG, I just sh*t out a F’ing DRAGON”. I’ve been unable to identify the species. It’s too thick and segments too oval to look like a cestode. It might be some kind of amphipod. it looks like it might even have several pairs of really stubby feet towards the anterior end. I passed what I hope is the last one of those last night, it was about 1/3 to 1/2 the size they usually are, guessing by segment size since they usually come out all disintegrated into pieces and the segments are easily confused as flukes due to their large oval footprint with one pore in the center, easily mistaken as a sucker, and the think height and curved, arched top skins. The largest one seemed to have been approx 6-8” in long, ai have nevr counted the number of segments in it. I have it in a large plastic bottle preserved in 91% isopropyl alcohol but haven’t mustered up the willpower to clean it up for photography yet.... the though of looking at it again is still kinda tramatizing. The Ivermectin ended up really pissing off the remaining Manzonella a few days ago, they started coming out of my skin, nostrils, and corners of my eyes (tear ducts). They dissolve holes in the skin trying to escape the poison environment of my bloodstream. They made my skin look like aged, haggard hell, but it is returning to normal now. the one that tried coming out of my eye corner tearduct, I squashed it to death under she skin before it could emerge and then the whole lower eyelid and sinus area behind there swelled up and my eye swelled shut with bad conjuctivitis.Day before yesterday, I took Moxidectin instead of Ivermectin and no more praziquantel or fenbendazole.... taking a vacation from those for a while since I did a 8 day stretch of those three every day. I was having a whole body immune reaction and running a fever too. That was Wednesday night when I took the Moxidectin and I really felt sick all over from everything and I went to bed and slept for 24 hours, Woke up about 12:30 am this morning (Friday 10-4) and it’s now 8:15 AM. I’m actually feeling really good right now, my skin has cleared up a lot, and my eye swelling is almost gone. I’m probably going to take another dose of Moxidectin but maybe not until tomorrow evening since I have a big event to attend tomorrow, it’s an “all years High School Reunion”, which will be the 39th for my graduating class and a couple days ago, I announced my coming out on the reunion Facebook page. I was going to wait until the real, actual 40th class reunion next summer before letting the cat out of the bag to all my old classmates, but recently learned that one of my old friends..,. one who I was especially looking forwards to surprising with revealing myself to, had just passed away from cancer. We’ve now lost 30 of a graduating class of 275 over 39 years, many of those in the last two or three years, most of us have already lost our oarents, and siblings, and many ofnthem have even lost their own children by now, so I thought it was time and posted my announcement and will make my grand debut to those who show up to the first ever “all years reunion” tomorrow, and the rest of them who won’t make it until next summer, or oerhaps can’t make it back to here and can only attend via online community get to know the new me. I don’t want to never be able to introduce myself to any more of my old friends... and despite being a rather conservative, rightwing small town high school..,. the outpouring of support has probably surprised me more than my coming out surprised any of them. All the outpouring of support, new FB friend requests, and my Facebook messenger blowing up with so many of them, even the socialite snobs that I didn’t like back in high school all those decades ago, it all had me literally crying before the end ofnthe day.... and for everyone else reading who’s confused by now.... I just came out to my old high school graduation class of 1980 that I am transgender and have been transitioning over the past 3 years. None of them ever saw this coming, so I at least got to surprise them really good!
