Chapter 1: The Mystery of Life and Aging.
He initally talks about plants and how they can sense the emotional distress of other living things including brine shrimp.
This in itself is not that interesting, however it highlights some of the characteristics of living cells and their intelligence.
He also says we communicate better when our brain frequency is that of alpha (8-16) cycles, which is a relaxed, meditative mood.
We all know we develop from a single neulceus with DNA and chromosomes from our parents. This cell divides, making more and more cells.
The interesting thing is that every cell is identical, yet they create different things in the body. In short, every cell of your body has the intelligence to create anything in your body.
When a cut is heasling, the intelligence of the cells knows when to stop the repair process.
Malignant cancer cells have lost this ability.
He also talks about the beginning of aging. When the foetus is supplied blood from the mother, any toxic substances in it are also transferred, hence we see drug addicted babies.
The foetus also produces waste products as a result of metabolism and the burning of energy to develop. These wastes are stored within our bodies and the process of aging is simply the accumulation of these wastes.
Regardless of whether there are or aren't toxic substances in our food, the very process of buring them inside out bodies will create wastes the body must get rid of or store.
Next, he talks about an interesting experiment where a French physiologist, Alexia Carrell kept a chicken heart alive in a test tube for 28 years. A young chicken heart, was cut into pieces and put in a saline solution with the same mineral content as chicken blood.
Everyday, he changed the solution and as a result, he kept the heart cells alive for 28 days. When he stopped chaning the solution, the cells died.
Our cells, as germ cells can perpetuate forever. It is only the accumulation of waste products that makes them die. If a house was only allowed to remove 99.9% of its gargbage, eventuially there would be a very bad smelling pile of garbage.
If we can remove the waste products that have been accumulating in our bodies since our life began, we can effectively grow younger.
This is the process of "Reverse Aging."
Chronological age can't be changed, but it is possible to take a 50 year body back to the accumulated waste products of a 40 year old or a 30 year old back back to that of a 20 year old.
Chapter 2: Water
Our bodies are made up of 70% water, our blood is 90% water. Water is a strong solvent and thus carries minerals, oxygen, nutrients, waste products. Everything in the body was carried in by the blood, so it can also be taken out by the blood.
Water also has the important characteristic of ionization. When this occurs, the water molecule splits into 2 ions, hydrogen ion -- H+ and Hydroxyl ion -- OH-.
These ions in turn ionize the minerals in water to create a chemical reaction. Without water, out body ceases its chemical reactions, which results in death.
If there are more H+ ions in water, then that water is acidic. If there are more OH- ions, then that water is alkaline. When their numbers are even, the water is neutral and the pH of neutral water is 7.
The sum of the exponents for H+ and OH- ions is 14 in room temperature water and if we have a water with pH of 6, there is no need to say the water has a pOH of 8. We simply just refer to the pH part to measure the water.
Human blood pH ranges from 7.3 to 7.45. This is a very small margin, however the blood at 7.45 contains 64.9% more oxygen than the blood at 7.3.
Here are some examples of common beverages:
Cola 2.5
Diet soda 3.2
Beer 4.7
Reverse Osmosis water 6.8
Distilled water 7.0
Alkaline water (kangen 8.5~9.5)
The more acidic the drink, the more alkaline water needed to neutralize it. For example, it takes 32 glasses of high pH water to fully neutralize 1 glass of Cola.
A glass of cola with pH of 2.5 added to 10 gallons of water at pH 7.4, will lower the pH of the entire 10 gallons to a pH of 4.6.
In the body, this does not occur thanks to the effective use of alkaline buffers in the blood stream which are discussed in a further chapter.
Here are the pH levels of some body fluids:
stomach juice 1.5
skin 4.7
saliva 7.1
cell 7.1
blood 7.4
Pancreatic juice 8.8
He then mentions a Korean study where if both parents are drinking alkaline water 30 days prior to conception, there is a 95% they will have a boy. In this instance, an understanding of human body fluid acidity and alkalinity can help to determine the sex of a baby.
Water filters are used as a defensive measure to remove harmful pollutants from our water. Bottled water is simply filtered tap water.
Chlorine is added to municipal water supplies to kill bacteria and microbes. It also combines with hydrocarbons to form carcinogenic chlorinated hydrocarbons.
The best filters for water are carbon block and carbon granulated filters. A Carbon block filter will make a significant drop in water pressure as it is used. This type of filter is not suitable for devices for making alkaline water, so a silver impregnated, carbon granulated filter is used.
Distillers and Reverse Osmosis take everything out of the water, making it dead water. Fish could not survive swimming in it. If distilled or RO water is used with a water ionizer, nothing happens.No alkaline or acid water will be produced.
The aim is to help your body dispose of more waste products. Waste is carried out by the blood and disposed of in liquid form.
"The best kind of water for this function is acid-free alkaline water, the water that neutralizes harmful acids and disposes of them safely while it does not leach out valuable alkaline minerals such as potassium, magnesium, sodium, calcium." p26
The device necessary to create this water is called a water ionizer. There is no other treatment device that produces oxygen rich alkaline water with a pH of 9.5.
A water softener replaces calcium ions with sodium ions. The sodium comes with chlorine and resultant water is acidic. Softened water helps you save on detergent, but is not healthy to drink.
Chapter 3: Food
Looking past the fact that some people love food, that some food is more expensive than others and that some foods are more harmful to you than others, food can be broken down into basic elements, as can the waste products from it being metabolized.
Food can be broken down into 3 categories -- protein, carbohydrate and fat.
Food is also made up of 4 basic elements -- carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen.
Carbohydrates do not contain nitrogen. All 4 elements are of course, abundant in the air, so he talks about Science finding a way to make food from air.
Mixed in with these elements are many inorganic minerals such as sulfur, chlorine, sodium, calcium, etc. These can be divided into 2 further categories, acid forming and alkaline forming.
Acid forming minerals
sulfur
phosphorous
chlorine iodine
Alkaline forming minerals
sodium
potassium
calcium
magnesium
iron
We have about 5lbs of these minerals in our bodies that help to perform essential functions.
99% of the calcium and 80-90% of the phosphorous are stored in our bones and teeth. The rest is found in soft tissues and body fluids. Whang says irritability of the nerves is increased when the amount of calcium in the blood is below normal.
When there is no reserve to use, the body takes it from the bones -- usually the spine and pelvic bones first. 10-40% of the calcium in bones will be eroded before it will show up on an x-ray.
Any absorbed calcium not needed is excreted by the kidneys into urine. Normal kidney function is essential for normal metabolism of calcium and other minerals.
Phosphorous is essential to chemical reactions from food and to synthesis of cell membranes and DNA/RNA.
Calcium rich foods
seaweed
black sesame seeds
tofu
milk
yogurt
carrot leaves,
green scallions
spinach
Phosphorous rich foods
miso
eggs
salmon
mackerel
tuna
bonito
codfish
chicken
black sesame seeds
seaweed
white rice
pork
Sodium and Potassium
Are similar minerals. Sodium is more outside the cell in the body fluids, whereas potassium is more within the cell.
The ratio of cell to body fluids and all types of muscle -- including the heart -- are influenced by sodium/potassium. It is vital to have a healthy balance of these 2 minerals.
Sodium and potassium together with proteins, phosphates and carbonates work to maintain the proper acid/alkaline balance in the blood.
Potassium foods
soybeans
carrots
potatoes
fruits -- apricots, avocados, bananas, dates, oranges, watermelon
chick, duck, lamb, pork
Sodium foods
ham, bacon, corned beef
Iron
Exists in the blood hemoglobin, some also in the liver and bone marrow. Iron is essential for the transport of oxygen to the cells.
Iron foods
vegetables, miso, meat, chicken, fish
cow's & human milk -- traces
animal liver, canned prune juice -- the best
Magnesium
Is similar in both function and location to calcium and potassium, found mostly in the bones. Muscle tissue has more magnesium than calcium, blood more calcium than magnesium.
Low magnesium concentration causes greatly increased irritability of the nervous system and cardiac arrhythmia.
Sulphur
We intake sulfur mostly through protein. Some of the more important sulfur containing compounds are amino acids, cysteine and cistine.
Chlorine
Found in sodium chloride or common salt, it assists in the formation of all digestive juices, primarily gastric juice which contains hydrochloric acid.
Chlorides assist digestive secretions and are necessary for elimination of the nitrogenous waste aspects of metabolism.
Excluding water, 97% of our food consists of carbohydrate, proteins, fats and fiber which are made from carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. Less than 3% of our food is in the form of inorganic minerals.
Acid and Alkaline foods
In determining the pH of food, first it is burned to ashes. 100g of the ashes are then combined with a liter of ultra pure water. Now the acidity or alkalinity as well as the strength can be determined.
Unfortunately, since 97% of the foods we eat come from carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, they cannot be burned completely by the cells and leave organic acid wastes with no help from the organic minerals. The most common organic acid wastes are uric and lactic acid.
Waste Products of Food
The amount of organic acid wastes is always more than the inorganic minerals that can neutralize them, so even if you only ever ate alkaline forming foods, your urine and perspiration would still be acidic.
These are the common wastes:
Acetic Acid
Lactic Acid
Cholesterol
Carbonic Acid
Ammonia
Uric Acid
Fatty Acid
Ammonia comes out through the urine and in CO2 from the lungs
Sulfuric Acid
Hydrochloric Acid
Phosphoric Acid
These must be neutralized by the alkaline minerals of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
The neutralizing products thus become:
potassium carbonate
sodium carbonate
magnesium carbonate
sodium bicarbonate
calcium carbonate
Acid wastes that aren't flushed out, will accumulate in the body. Undissolved uric acid crystals accumulated in the joints causes arthritis and gout. In younger people, the kidneys are able dissolve the uric acid.
Acetic acid, lactic acid and cholesterol are derivatives of Fatty acid, which will build up with an over-ingestion of carbohydrates and not enough exercise.
Intense exercise creates a lack of oxygen in the cells, which causes lactic and acetic acid or incompletely burned carbohydrates.
Lactic and acetic acids lower the pH of body fluids drastically. When blood contains too much of these fatty acids, blood pH is dragged down and the buffering system commences. Another way is to solidify some of the acids.
This is cholesterol. Even if you eat food containing no cholesterol, your body will still make it. Cholesterol builds up as plaque in arteries and the result is heart problems.
Phosphoric acid
A kidney stone is a hard mineral deposit formed from phosphates (a salt of phosphate acid), urates (a salt of uric acid), etc. Phosphoric acic contains some calcium to neutralize it, hence kidney stones look like calcium deposits.
For this reason, kidney stones are often confused with excess calcium, but there is an easy way to test. Calcium deposits will dissolve in acidic urine, while kidney stones dissolve in an alkaline solution. This build up happens as we age.
Hydrochloric acid.
The human body creates hydrochloric acid or stomach juice as required. There is no pouch as it would be damaged by the acid. It is produced by the stomach walls when the pH of the stomach rises above 4.
As hydrochloric acid goes into the stomach, bicarbonates are injected into the bloodstream. When the food reaches the small intestine however, it is too acid, so the pancreas shoots pancreatic juice into the small intestine and hydrochloric acid into the blood stream.
When the blood receives an acidic solution, we get tired and drowsy. The neutralization of this acidic solution by the alkaline compounds such as sodium carbonate create carbonic acid, which makes you lethargic.
This explains while we feel don't feel drowsy until after a big meal, once the food has reached the small intestine and hydrochloric acid has entered the blood stream.
We use more sodium to neutralize acid wastes, however this leaves the chloride in the form of Chlorine. We need alkaline minerals such as sodium, calcium, and potassium to neutralize it. "Alkaline water gives them!" p38
This chapter deals with the waste products of foods, not the nutritional value of the foods. The key to longevity and reverse aging is in the management and disposal of these wastes.
Some foods offer different energy and nutrients, however since all food is 97% carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen and only 3% alkaline minerals, no matter what you eat, acidic wastes will be created.
If we help our bodies dispose of 100% of the wastes daily, we prevent the accumulation and maintain good health. In short, we can eat anything we want.
All foods, junk or health, expensive or not, good tasting or bad produce acidic waste products the body has to get rid of.

Vital info for everyone transferred from health site into text only, please read
Sent: Fri 7/04/08 10:09 AM
INSTRUCTIONS:
Take internally, 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder in half a glass of warm water 3x a day. Continue for several days or more if you have recurring MRSA boils. Turmeric, a traditional Ayurvedic spice of India, is anti-inflammatory and a blood purifier. You will see healing begin within a matter of hours. You do NOT have to touch the boil whatsoever or apply anything topically.
Please, Please, PLEASE report back after you try this remedy for a few days!
Note #1: It is best to take turmeric internally at the earliest sign of a boil (i.e., before it breaks the skin). If you do, the boil will literally disappear overnight.
Note #2: The best way to decide whether an impending blemish is a pimple or a boil is to hold a hydrogen peroxide soaked cotton ball to the blemish. If it is acne, it will turn white at the top and start to heal within about 15 minutes. If it is a boil, the peroxide won't do a thing... in fact the boil will keep growing, so take turmeric quickly!
Note #3: Turmeric is one of the best remedies for diarrhea, so be careful, it can cause constipation. Try taking acidophilus (live yogurt or liquid) to keep things balanced in your intestinal tract.
Note #4: Be prepared for your sweat to smell spicy for the first day or two.
Note #5: Turmeric seems to cause intense dehydration, especially at night , so make sure to follow your Water and Turmeric mixture with several glasses of plain water.
*** READ THE TURMERIC TESTIMONIALS! ***
View the Compiled Survey Results from 4,979 participants. This document was compiled on 6/3/2008.
[YEA] 09/04/2006: Christy from Chicago, IL writes: "I am cured! Acidophilus!! It worked in only a day or so. I have been taking garlic supplements, eating raw veggies, and drinking organic juices...I felt healthier, but was still getting small boils - until my friend turned me on to Acidophilus. It is a natural supplement of probiotic bacteria ... basically bacteria that eat bad bacteria. I bought it at Whole Foods. My boils are gone & no new ones have popped up!"
[YEA] Carroll from Middletown, NJ writes: "If I feel a boil coming on, I take Acidophilus, one a day. The boil never fully comes out. I take it for a couple of days, or a week if I actually have one and it goes completely away. Acidophilus works wonders for boosting the immune system."
ASPIRIN
[YEA] 06/12/2008: Elle from Austin, TX writes: "I find that taking an ASPIRIN at the first hint of a boil works for me. It must be aspirin and not tylenol or advil and such. Regarding diet, noticed outbreak after eating chocolate pudding (the cheap, unrefrigerated brand). Immediately took an aspirin before bed, awoke to less tenderness and less swelling. I took 1/2 tsp of Tumeric in three ounces of water as well. But, I get great relief from the aspirin. Blessings!"
[YEA] 06/06/2008: Craig from Carrollton, Texas writes: "I had a cut on my arm that got infected and I was desperate because it was very painful and I didnt want to go to the doctor for an expensive bill. Someone advised me to wrap it in bacon and duct tape it overnight. I was desperate so I did. The next morning the infection was gone. The salt from the bacon is what kills it. I was amazed. ps dont eat the bacon."
BACON AND ONION
[YEA] 01/25/2008: Sarah from Fort Worth, Texas writes: "Bacon and onion. Cut a slice of onion and seer in a hot skillet till almost' transparent, one side. Remove and set aside. Cut a square piece off of a slice of bacon and put in the still warm pan for only a few seconds on both sides. Take the middle rings out of the onion large enough for the boil you are trying to cover, put the bacon closet to your skin with the seared side of the onion behind the bacon piece, wrap with gauze and leave on for as long as you can (hours). Repeat several times till the boil starts to drain or the plug comes out. Works very well."
BAKING SODA
[YEA] 12/06/2007: dawn from zachry, la writes: "I found that baking soda and vinegar made into a paste applied to a boil helps draw the infection out"
[YEA] 06/02/2006: Gabi from Jacksonville, FL writes: "Baking soda combined with some essential oils like lavender and lemon as well as some vitamin E and hot compresses seemed to help bring it to a head, but at the time i had no insurance so i was trying anything. But now 7 months later i'm starting to get one again or its coming back. I saw my doctor this time and she just said to start the hot compresses again. so i'm doing that and i'm trying ichthammol."
[YEA] 09/02/2007: Julie from White Oak, NC writes: "Thank you Gabi from Jax, FL. I had a boil to come up on my buttock 4 days ago. Today is Sunday and I was ready to get come relief. It was Labor Day week-end and I could not wait three more days to go to the doctor. I did a home remedies for boils search and found this website. I first tried the oatmeal and salt remedy for two hours, but nothing happened. I decided that I was going to try a different remedy every two hours until I got one that worked. Next I tried the grated potatoes, but again nothing happened. I tried the baking soda, lemon and Vitamin E and within two hours, I was getting relief and the boil had opened up and started to drain. I also drink the two cups of hot water mixed with one tablespoon of vinegar and one tablespoon of honey. Thanks. This is what I will try from this day forward and will pass it along to others"

Then last week i got 3 more, 2 about an inch below my eyes on each side of my nose, one on my chin. I avoid sugar and anything white, I immediately started turmeric,mag and zinc. I went to my acupuncturist. She gave me herbs for my liver. The boils started growing and got soo painful and hideous. So i put the black drawing salve on them on the 31st. I kept them covered until last night. My head was pounding and i began to have flu-like symptoms-fever,bodyaches, extreme headache. I could feel it drawing up all the toxins. But now it looks like i have thes big craters on my face. Did it eat away alll of my skin. The skin doesnt feel raw, its covered with a brownish grayish crust. The instructions say to put rubbing alcohol on the spots till the crust comes out.. but then i got worried about scarring so i just applied some rosehip seed oil. but i notice the edges around the crater are a little pink so now im concerned with infection. should i cont with alcohol or tea tree or what? i am scared now. Thank you soo much Ted. sincerely L.""
CALAMINE LOTION
[YEA] 01/21/2007: Carolyn from Hollywood, FL writes: "Calahist, Walgreens calamine lotion, got rid of the red boils on my face but the ones in my armpit are still fighting. I think the reason is the moisture in that area. So, I am trying baking soda in my armpits along with the Calahist to see if I can keep my armpits dry enough for the Calahist lotion to work there. Yes, the baking soda does burn, but I have to get the area dry somehow.. living in South Florida humidity. Calahist worked a miracle on the red boils on my face."
06/25/2007: K.C. from Portland, Oregon writes: "I had a calcified bursa on my right shoulder that had become so painful that, after six months of physical therapy, it was no better and I was scheduled for cortisone shots. I did not want them because of the immuno-suppressant tendency of cortisone. One night I had the impression to try a castor oil pack on it, just out of the blue. So I did. I wrapped my shoulder and underarm (after washing it) and left the pack on all night. In the morning the problem was 95% better. I did it four more nights and have not had the problem since. About five years now."
[YEA] 05/04/2007: Scott from Evanston, IL writes: "calendula homeopathic has seemed like a friendly topical for my persistent boils, which you might try while taking the turmeric."
[YEA] 12/27/2006: Keith from Montgomery, AL writes: "I had read about this and it works. I had a boil in my groin area that was painful and hard. I applied some campho phenique to the bandage part of a large Band-Aid and slept with it applied to the boil all night. You might want to apply sterile gauze over this due to drainage. The next morning pus had began to flow freely. Gentle squeezes from the base of boil will cause more to be released. Continue this treatment until the boil gets small or is gone. I used Tylenol for the pain I was experiencing. Sometimes low iron deficiencies cause boils so I will begin eating a handful of raisins a day which is suppose to prevent them."
[YEA] 12/21/2006: Jennifer from Raleigh, NC writes: "The drawing salve was hard to find, but the pharmacist pointed me to it. Just put some on a gauze pad & tape it on the boil. It is pretty messy stuff, so don't wear anything light or use sheets that you love. Of course use new towels every time you wash, make sure you wash your hands after you change your dressings. Also dabbing some camphophenqiue was not only soothing but helped it drain as well. Hot compresses or a heating pad are most important. I also took a hot bath with Dead Sea Salts & Epsom salts (this last bout I had was pretty horrendous, hence all my remedies)."
[YEA] 10/30/2006: Fredrina from Philadelphia, PA writes: "Castor oil on a cotton ball cured my boil."
[YEA] 03/24/2006: Sandy from Vancouver writes: "A long time ago, I had a painful sore in the back crease of my thigh that I couldn't identify, and my grandmother said it was a boil from sitting on wet cement with bare skin. She told me to put some castor oil on a cotton ball and cover it, and leave it alone. I did, and it was gone in 2 days! I've since had one more, used the same remedy with the same result. I think lancing them simply opens you up to more infection but it might be necessary if it is black or looks like blood poisoning and you are really ill for no other reason. I truly hope this works for others."

BACK STORY:
We never would have created these 8 pages devoted to MRSA and boils had it not been for the weird winter of '06 in Los Angeles. Within a matter of 2 weeks in January of 2006, 50% of everyone we knew was breaking out in a terrible series of boils: on the face, arms, legs, back, neck, etc. etc. We're talking about some very healthy, very active people! We too got boils on our face for the first time. After talking with friends, we decided something really odd was going on. So then we started talking to health professionals, from doctors to facialists to acupuncturists, all of whom likewise reported a surge in boils during this same period of time. Once we heard that, we immediately set up this page on Earth Clinic.

So then we started talking to health professionals, from doctors to facialists to acupuncturists, all of whom likewise reported a surge in boils during this same period of time. Once we heard that, we immediately set up this page on Earth Clinic.
One theory why that particular boil spike happened in '06 has led us down our current path of blaming environmental toxicity and rain. It was a holistic doctor, a friend of ours, that theorized the first big rain of the season brought down a lot of toxins from the air, which everyone either touched (plants, trees, pet's fur, etc.) or inhaled. This same doctor recommended the natural cure you will read below, which has been a life saver (literally) for many folks.
We posted a 21 question MRSA survey on 5/19/2007. Over the 12 months, almost 5,000 people completed the questionnaire! The survey is no longer live, but you can view our compiled survey results here: http://www.earthclinic.com/CURES/MRSA_survey_results.html.

MISDIAGNOSIS ALERT!
From the feedback we have been receiving at Earth Clinic, it seems that many people (including doctors) are misdiagnosing their boils/staph infections/MRSA for spider bites, so please be very careful! If you don't remember being bitten by a spider (a rare occurrence), it's probably a boil or possibly a staph infection.

#1 REMEDY: TURMERIC
Without a doubt, the spice turmeric is the very best remedy to take when you have boils, staph infections, or MRSA. Unfortunately, while turmeric will cure an outbreak of boils, it will NOT cure MRSA. A daily dose of turmeric will only prevent future MRSA outbreaks if you also follow a strict alkaline diet by monitoring your pH.
Without a doubt, the spice turmeric is the very best remedy to take when you have boils, staph infections, or MRSA. Unfortunately, while turmeric will cure an outbreak of boils, it will NOT cure MRSA. A daily dose of turmeric will only prevent future MRSA outbreaks if you also follow a strict alkaline diet by monitoring your pH.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Take internally, 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder in half a glass of warm water 3x a day. Continue for several days or more if you have recurring MRSA boils. Turmeric, a traditional Ayurvedic spice of India, is anti-inflammatory and a blood purifier. You will see healing begin within a matter of hours. You do NOT have to touch the boil whatsoever or apply anything topically.
You can buy an enormous bag of turmeric at any Indian grocery store for a few dollars. The spice section of every grocery store will also carry a bottle of turmeric: $4 - $6 a bottle. A good health food store will sell turmeric capsules. The capsules are far more expensive. Is it worth the extra $? Nah, we think the cheap stuff is just fine!
You can also put an antibacterial ointment like Neosporin on the boil to help heal it quickly. If you catch it early enough with turmeric and Neosporin, the boil will not break the skin.
Please, Please, PLEASE report back after you try this remedy for a few days!
Note #1: It is best to take turmeric internally at the earliest sign of a boil (i.e., before it breaks the skin). If you do, the boil will literally disappear overnight.
Note #2: The best way to decide whether an impending blemish is a pimple or a boil is to hold a hydrogen peroxide soaked cotton ball to the blemish. If it is acne, it will turn white at the top and start to heal within about 15 minutes. If it is a boil, the peroxide won't do a thing... in fact the boil will keep growing, so take turmeric quickly!
Note #3: Turmeric is one of the best remedies for diarrhea, so be careful, it can cause constipation. Try taking acidophilus (live yogurt or liquid) to keep things balanced in your intestinal tract.
Note #4: Be prepared for your sweat to smell spicy for the first day or two.
Note #5: Turmeric seems to cause intense dehydration, especially at night , so make sure to follow your Water and Turmeric mixture with several glasses of plain water.

ACIDOPHILUS
2 YEA
[YEA] 09/04/2006: Christy from Chicago, IL writes: "I am cured! Acidophilus!! It worked in only a day or so. I have been taking garlic supplements, eating raw veggies, and drinking organic juices...I felt healthier, but was still getting small boils - until my friend turned me on to Acidophilus. It is a natural supplement of probiotic bacteria ... basically bacteria that eat bad bacteria. I bought it at Whole Foods. My boils are gone & no new ones have popped up!"
[YEA] Carroll from Middletown, NJ writes: "If I feel a boil coming on, I take Acidophilus, one a day. The boil never fully comes out. I take it for a couple of days, or a week if I actually have one and it goes completely away. Acidophilus works wonders for boosting the immune system."
APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
3 YEA
[YEA] 01/02/2007: Ada from Carthage, NY writes: "acv and a glass of water 8oz . with a teaspoon of honey cures boils. i drink it 3 time a day and in 3 day they're gone --it does work."
[YEA] 01/02/2007: Ada from Carthage, NY writes: "acv and a glass of water 8oz . with a teaspoon of honey cures boils. i drink it 3 time a day and in 3 day they're gone --it does work."
[YEA] 09/05/2006: KS from MA writes: "Drinking apple cider vinegar tonic ( 2 teaspoons with honey in 8 oz water or tea 2-3 times daily) has nearly eliminated my recurring cysts that dermatologists have been unable to cure in over a decade."
[YEA] Anonymous writes: "I have a history of having problems with boils and bear the scars of them. They are quite painful and at times have had to have them lanced. A few people in my family told me about vinegar tea. One tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar, one tablespoon honey mixed in a cup of hot water at least twice a day has dissolved more than one of my boils. Not only the vinegar tea but also: the recommended daily amount of water. Stay away from sodas and chocolate, as they seem to aggravate the infected area even more. If the boil does come to a head where it is going to open continue to drink the vinegar tea and the water. Use hot packs on the boil for 15-20 minutes three times a day. Doing this has more than once saved an unwanted visit to the doctor. What is also important is not to squeeze a boil. I hope this will help someone out there."
ASPIRIN
1 YEA
[YEA] 06/12/2008: Elle from Austin, TX writes: "I find that taking an ASPIRIN at the first hint of a boil works for me. It must be aspirin and not tylenol or advil and such. Regarding diet, noticed outbreak after eating chocolate pudding (the cheap, unrefrigerated brand). Immediately took an aspirin before bed, awoke to less tenderness and less swelling. I took 1/2 tsp of Tumeric in three ounces of water as well. But, I get great relief from the aspirin. Blessings!"
BACON
2 YEA
[YEA] 06/06/2008: Craig from Carrollton, Texas writes: "I had a cut on my arm that got infected and I was desperate because it was very painful and I didnt want to go to the doctor for an expensive bill. Someone advised me to wrap it in bacon and duct tape it overnight. I was desperate so I did. The next morning the infection was gone. The salt from the bacon is what kills it. I was amazed. ps dont eat the bacon."
[YEA] 04/18/2006: Linda from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania writes: "A slice of bacon (pork) put directly on boil. Cured the boil on my rear end."
BACON AND ONION
1 YEA
[YEA] 01/25/2008: Sarah from Fort Worth, Texas writes: "Bacon and onion. Cut a slice of onion and seer in a hot skillet till almost' transparent, one side. Remove and set aside. Cut a square piece off of a slice of bacon and put in the still warm pan for only a few seconds on both sides. Take the middle rings out of the onion large enough for the boil you are trying to cover, put the bacon closet to your skin with the seared side of the onion behind the bacon piece, wrap with gauze and leave on for as long as you can (hours). Repeat several times till the boil starts to drain or the plug comes out. Works very well."
BAKING SODA
5 YEA
[YEA] 12/06/2007: dawn from zachry, la writes: "I found that baking soda and vinegar made into a paste applied to a boil helps draw the infection out"
05/13/2008: Tim from Indianapolis, indiana replies: "do u apply it str8 to the head and add a guaze to it to help drain it?"
[YEA] 08/01/2006: Jennifer from Milwaukee, WI writes: "I have had boils on and off for a year or so, but this one was SO incredibly painful! I literally could not sit or walk without extreme pain for 3 days. I found your site when searching for a natural remedy, and the only thing I had on hand was the Baking Soda. I immediately tried it and felt a lessening of the pain within an hour or so. By the next morning the pain was almost nonexistent! I now have no noticeable pain. Thank you so much for providing such a valuable site!"
[YEA] 06/02/2006: Gabi from Jacksonville, FL writes: "Baking soda combined with some essential oils like lavender and lemon as well as some vitamin E and hot compresses seemed to help bring it to a head, but at the time i had no insurance so i was trying anything. But now 7 months later i'm starting to get one again or its coming back. I saw my doctor this time and she just said to start the hot compresses again. so i'm doing that and i'm trying ichthammol."
[YEA] Anonymous writes: "I learned this from a make-up artist when I suffered from acne. For boils and large pimples make a paste out of baking soda and water. Pack it on the infected spot and it works to draw the infection."
BAKING SODA, LEMON AND VITAMIN E
1 YEA
[YEA] 09/02/2007: Julie from White Oak, NC writes: "Thank you Gabi from Jax, FL. I had a boil to come up on my buttock 4 days ago. Today is Sunday and I was ready to get come relief. It was Labor Day week-end and I could not wait three more days to go to the doctor. I did a home remedies for boils search and found this website.

BOIL OUTBREAK THEORIES
06/10/2008: Ginger from Brownstown, MI writes: "CLIMATE CHANGE...Did not get boils until I moved from New York to Maine (in my armpits)and then I moved from Michigan to Texas 25 years ago. When I arrived in Texas- I blew up like a balloon on my right eye and my breast. Once I became adjusted to the climate they weren't near as bad. One here and one there. They only come up in spring and fall for some reason. Now I am going through menopause and have a lot popping up. I use Desiten cream to keep them dry AS soon as I notice one and wash the area a lot to keep them at bay. But do NOT shave any areas that they are present. Also, the deodorant I use is natural salts found in health food stores. That helps immensely. Don't change soaps- Use Caress or Dove only. It's a ongoing challenge...I am going to try to Tumeric- Thank you for this website."

Dear Soapy,
wow these photographs you sent are great and also beautiful they are in my top ten photographs of the literally thousands of photographs I have on this computer. Crispy likes the photos very much too. THANK YOU!!!!!!! I am going to get back to my projects right now, the projects are two of the things I am doing for your birthday and one is helping me out so much too. These projects are really nice but don't take up hardly any space and one of a kind so to speak and can't be bought anywhere. I got a really good idea for another gift too I am going to put together after Crispy and I go shopping this Fri or Sat and is not very big and it will not take up any space at all for more than a few days but is also unique and you will both like and be able to use every day. Am I being confusing, if so that is not anything new huh? :-) Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much for the really beautiful and great photographs I am going to print out copies for me and Crispy too and maybe one set for Paul's household too.
Very Sincerely With Tons Of Thanks And Love And Hugs For You Two From All Of Us

I got a really good idea for another gift too I am going to put together after Crispy and I go shopping this Fri or Sat and is not very big and it will not take up any space at all for more than a few days but is also unique and you will both like and be able to use every day. Am I being confusing, if so that is not anything new huh? :-) Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much for the really beautiful and great photographs I am going to print out copies for me and Crispy too and maybe one set for Paul's household too.
Very Sincerely With Tons Of Thanks And Love And Hugs For You Two From All Of Us

This is so good and so amusing and works, and therefore
This is so good and so amusing and works, and therefore
I'm going to ask Bonny if I can put this on some of my websites.
My sister, our friend Bonny said when she gets a prank telephone call and when she says hi, the one on the other end does not say anything this is what she says.
"How are you? I'm so sorry you lost your voice, I'm sure you will be ok. God loves you and I do too, I hope you have a good day. Call back anytime."
She said when she says that they don't like it and they don't call back, she does not get any more prank calls for months.
The times she did not say that, she always frequently got more prank calls. I told a church parishioner, the guy who the minister has to call the approximately 50 new members each month, I told him, Jerry, this when he called and talked to me and Paul and prayed yesterday. He laughed when I told him what my friend who is in a church choir in ******** Catholic church tells the prank callers, and he said that is really good, and he said he is going to use that telephone conversation message when he gets a prank call.

Hi y' all. :-) I just got this new email and want to send my best friends - best friends being my children and you ****** - my new email address. I am writing to all three of you at the same time to save time and typing, even though I love to type.
My site at www.youtube.com has over 200 of my favorite music videos now, so many different types of music from early 1900's to now. IF you all want to view or listen to my favs just type in "*********" at the above youtube site and then my password is "*******"
I have been trying to find the sign in page for hotmail for about half an hour. I noticed on postings that others have been attempting to find the hotmail sign in page too, dated the 16th also, today is very difficult to sign in or find the hotmail sign in page.
With Love to You All from Chris and Friend trying unsuccessfully to access my hotmail :-)
please go to and read these websites
www.naturalcancertherapies.org/ this site and one of the others I am reading has great books about over 100 cures that work that the medical doctors either don't know about or can't tell anyone about because the government would lose too much money by these cures so the govt made it illegal for medical doctors to use these natural cures.
ultimate-cancer-breakthroughs.com/index.php?id=23
I also read on one of the sites I saved this morning that colon hydrotherapy is much better than just plain enemas. It says the "patient" needs to LAY DOWN to use the enema, use ONLY WATER THAT IS COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURE, probably mildly warm would be best, and that the "colon hydrotherapist" assists but the patient controls both the water pressure, the nozzle and actually does all the work. Remember the patient is laying down and uses a blanket to cover with during the colonic. Also they mentioned a fan could be used in the room because most likely the waste will smell bad. Also it says the patient should eat steamed veggies and/or soup right after to replace the beneficial bacteria in the colon. THERE ARE NOT ANY BAD side effects, the worst ever reported was some slight nausea and being cold or tired.
I have found more great info also but will wait to tell you about the other things when we talk by telephone today.
Love from Chris
Welcome
Hey there! Soapy here.
Welcome to the Chris Jones Newsletter, a record of correspondence between me and my mother... or rather, a record of her emails to me. Seeing as she often sends several a day, and seeing as I'm in college, I don't usually have time to respond to her messages. But boy do I enjoy receiving them! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Love,
Soapy
