** Re: increasing the dose

Slippery Elm is good from what I understand... I think Cayce mentioned putting a pinch in every glass of water you drink; others say you can fast on it by making a gruel adding maple syrup or sorghum molasses... I considered this.

That said, I am well into my second year of trying to cure my ills and STILL experiencing improvement. At times I get impatient and really push the envelope... when I do this I get run down and have healing reactions that are border line tolerable.

In addition, it is important to note that for a while, the momentum towards illness is maintained whether or not we are on a healing course until the body recognizes and responds to the corrective action. It may take some bodies longer to recognize and respond than others in part due to how congested the body may be.

I figure at the rate I am going, in another year or 2 I should be ALMOST completely healed... God willing. I already feel and move better than I have in over 15 years.

I took a conditioning class Monday (given by a college sports program medical director) that left everyone from 13 to 45 so sore they could hardly move; my wife could not sit down, stand up, or walk without groaning... I am 50 and got up the next day and did my full workout no problem. My wife was in a state of shock when she saw me. There is absolutely NO WAY I could have done this even 2 - 3 months ago with my knees.

To put things in perspective for you, I was considering bi-lateral knee replacement or a wheel chair long about March 2005.

It takes time, be patient and stay the course.

My best,
