Hot baths

Hi again momtothree,

Hot water is not good when someone has an overload of toxins in their body.  Warm water is better (you can test the water by putting a thermometer to make sure it is not higher than 98 degrees).

Epsom salts draw out the toxins (after a good dry skin brushing) and hydrogen peroxide (both these items should be added to the warm water) adds oxygen into your blood stream which is a good thing.

Detoxing should be done every day, you can switch the detox baths with foot baths.  There is "outer detoxing" as well as "inner" detoxing.   Diet is also very important, no sugars, no bad carbs, etc.  Organic veggies and fruit are great! 

I make Green Smoothies now and if you want the recipes, let me know.  Very healthy and they taste great too!

Hope this helps,
Denise

I agree with Dee, Momtothree,

it is so important to open those elimination channels. If your body is loaded with toxins to begin with and your elimination organs (liver, kidney, etc..) are already working overtime, they cannot manage a sudden dump and the body re-uptakes those toxins. That is most likely what made you feel so badly.

We always encourage a slow beginning and that warmth vs. hot. When you finish the bath (make sure you are well hydrated before taking a bath, as well - lemon water!), stand slowly and rinse in cool water to prevent your blood from pooling in the joints. It stimulates the circulatory system and oxygenates the bloods.

It took our daughter a very long time before she could tolerate the baths; but this last year in particular (her third in treatment(natural at this stage of the battle) - going on 4) she tolerates it so much better. Acupuncture, Vit C IVs (Myers Cocktail), IV L-Glutathione, gentle lymphatic massage and homeopathic lymphomyostat drops have contributed tremendously to this improvement in flow. She was once yellow. Now, she is a 'lovely, ballerina pale'. Her battle continues; but we are grateful for each gift.

Blessings,

That's very cool. I enjoyed the walk down memory lane and could so relate. Carly- a fav for 70's throwbacks! The song married w/Itsy Bitsy - and life experiences such as this.......

Hi,
I just would like to ask you what is epsom salt? I asked a pharmacist but she never heard about epsom.

Hi all,

Turquoise Sky, as far as fruits are concerned, I personally prefer berries, especially blueberries and cranberries..  Lately I have been adding a banana to my green smoothies..  of course organic fruit is the best.

Sojourner, I'm so happy to hear that Heth is doing better!  She has come such a long way.   I remember our early conversations about lyme disease and you were first learning about it..   Isn't it wonderful to share what we have learned?  Please give Heth a big hug from me. 

And yes, I loved Carly Simon in the 70's and I still continue to listen to her music today.  I even named one of my cat's after her! 

Hope_29, here is a link about epsom salts, I just learned that I could use it on my face as an exfoliator!  Have to try that...
