As a student in crime ridden NYC in the early 1970's I was mugged 3 times. Going into the subway was like descending into Dante's Inferno with all the cars filthy and covered with graffiti. I...
I am surrounded by asphalt where I live and not near a beach or park where I can walk around barefoot every day. So I bought a grounding sheet as mentioned by that 94 year old tennis playing woman...
This video is over an hour long but you can start looking at minute 27 thru minute 35 to get the gist of it. Then if you find this interesting you can watch the entire video for a more complete...

The "science." I have seen links saying grounding is a dubious medical claim. OTOH there are numerous scientific publications that say the earthing effect is real even though they are not sure...
Here is an interesting video explaining the science behind grounding and why it may be helpful for lessening inflammation. This video is over an hour long but you can start looking at minute 27 thru...
I don't understand. Maybe you should get a new doctor or at least check her out. Here is one example from our forum about a woman who was managing her UC quite well with rectal meds. But her doctor...
I am not sure if it is more effective than glucosamine but something works for me. I take both....
Over the years I have shredded my joints with heavy competitive weight lifting and in later years by hitting thousands of golf balls. I agree with you that glucosamine/chondroitin helps to relieve...
Most autoimmune diseases affect women much more than men, but with IBD there is very little difference between men and women. So I wonder if IBD isn't really a true autoimmune disease. Maybe IBD is...

Here is an excellent video discussing ways to prevent macular degeneration. It includes eating fish and other nutrients such as lutein and zeaxathin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7h0k5lNkao&t=743s ...
I found a study that might help prevent strictures in the future. PPC is found naturally in the body in all cells and is contained in eggs, soybeans, mustard, sunflower, and other foods. [b]Bowel...
Actually I agree with you 100 percent. All I was saying is that if someone finds they can maintain remission with mesalamines then it may not be necessary to escalate to biologics....
I agree. Good for you for trying to get off biologics. Mesalamines like sulfasalazine can help you maintain remission and if needed sulfasalazine can be reinforced by mesalamine rectal meds such as...
I consider supplementing with fish oil similar to just eating more fish. This won't cure macular degeneration but if it reduces the risk of getting it in the first place then it might help with your...
“alternatives claims must be backed by links to scientific studies, etc etc.” I don't understand. I thought if someone found an effective alternative that worked for themselves, such as a...
Congratulations!...
I will check with the admin for his opinion on this. I don't understand why we are censoring a medical doctor and his research at the same time we allow threads that tolerate alternative therapies....
Please don't change the subject. Those who supposedly made those “most vitriolic posts” are banned but that doesn't explain why the newest thread discussing Dr. Pravda / R-DHLA is locked....
The thread discussing R-DHLA was locked....
”Discussions about Pravda are banned on this forum.” “Yeah it's too bad that had to happen, but I agree it had to stop. The discussion itself was interesting, but the main proponent of it was very...

Get your son's blood levels of vitamin D tested. Optimum levels are between 50 and 60 ng/ml and most people are deficient. The following if from the NIH National Library of Medicine:...
Go to a doctor rating website like Healthgrades.com and write an appropriate review on as many rating websites you can find. But maybe don't appear too inflammatory, that may reflect more on you than...
“They are not as smart as cats!” Maybe, I never had a cat. But I suspect dogs are forced to evolve more intelligence. Except for female lions most cats are solitary predators who hunt on their own....

Thank you for sharing that BROQ was and is still available in France. However I have a friend who lives in France and she says that vitamins and alternatives are much more restricted in Europe. She...
I have maintained remission most of the time for the past 14 years by watching my diet and taking supplements that have worked for me. I am not familiar with Dr. Pravda's protocol but I see that I...
Same here. Extensive blood work twice a year for vitamins, minerals, triclycerides, PSA, homocysteine, etc. Maybe. But a good case can be made that bad reactions to supplements, whether they are...
