What I've healed from

[Yodean]

if you want to boost your testosterone even more. Besides using mumio, you can try a combo of horny goat weed, Siberian ginseng. Mix the the duo with honey

Sol, do you have links to any studies regarding Horny Goat Weed + Siberian Ginseng Combo?

I have managed to Cure these diseases in myself:

chronic fatigue, chemical sensitivity, major food sensitivity, bipolar disorder, dissociation/loss of reality, anxiety, panic attacks, fibromyalgia, depression.

Still working on:
healing cavities naturally
a bit of eczema left (got rid of most of it)

If anyone ever wants any advice etc I'm available. Love this community.

Yes sir orange guy : i do have me/cfs to if that is the type of chronic fatigue u r talking about i would like to hear the remedy and how long to apply it, (also was bitten by tick when i was about 19 with the target rash which was about 58 years ago) and also the chemical sensitivities and major food sensitivities. (peripheral neuopathy as per chemo treatment 1998)

Its only since covid started that i came out of depression by singing (whatever) - soon as feeling a downer or my inner chatter was getting away on me, it was my cue to sing mostly making up words etc - really helps.

Now im at stage of life that tendons nerves and muscles r breaking down and dr. sending me for more cortisone jabs - im hoping that perhaps bonebroth homemade can get me there on that one however ive used collagen powders in the past with not much noticeable help.

IN last month i have applied the deminimus baking soda ie 1/4 tsp in glass or mug of water 30 to 50 minutes before bed all taken at once - wow ive not slept this well in decades (also less night peeing as results of heavier sleep) and ofcourse using non aluminum baking soda. More that 1/4 tsp (flat) can have opposite effect

The singing is amazing way to go on that. That is really powerful.

For diet and medicine my big source was Medical Medium. I hesitate to mention it mostly because it can freak some people out. But you're someone it really applies to. Best of luck. PM me anytime.

Have you been using this recipe.

I am always interested in new ideas and it looks like a great way to save, especially now as many of the manufacturers are adding corn syrup to the mix

I had started using bone broth both chicken and beef bone broth bones (barely any meat on them from a local butcher who keeps out hormones) about 6 weeks back or so. When i came accross this article probably as a result of a search stimulated by the TI discussion I decided to do the electrolytes mixed into the bone broth but since i had 90 mg of potassium tablets and a little concerned overdoing potassium as getting a lot from veggies anyway , i decided to cut the amts in half - so i add a shallow 1/4 tsp sea salt, and then since my magnesium capsules are 140mg I cut off end and maybe use 1/4 of the powder stir in and swallow the pot tablet - drink the rest. At least with the chicken i have used some chicken broth to water the chicken bone broth down somewhat but that is not necessary.

I started using bone broth because at my saging to aging years of 78 having a lot of problems with tendons, ligaments, cartlidge and u name it. I was also misdiagnosed by my GP in 2019 with kidney disease failure 3b level but this was rediagnosed by a nephrolgist about 6 months later saying that the low gfr readings based on historical years of readings were misinterpreted and absolutely no kidney disease and what i had was fairly severe dehydration (what a relief that is as no potasium is allowed with kidney disease.) As one ages more likely to get dehydration. Not sure if there is an exact non lab test but some one reco pinching the skin somewhere. I take this before and give some time before i eat solid food somewhere in AM. Even tho i limit the mag here later in day in my late supper i do take one whole mag cap with some Ca and C.

I cannot really say one way or another that i notice much different with the extra hydration i am supposedly getting but maybe will notice something definite in a few months.

Simultaneously, recent years have witnessed the uprising of the Wim Hof Method (WHM), a combination of pranayama-like breathing and cold exposure in the form of cold showers and, in its more extreme variant, ice baths.

Previous research has focused on physiological measures such as inflammation markers and the impact on inflammation-related illnesses such as arthritis (Buijze et al., 2019; Zwaag et al., 2020), altitude acclimatization (Buijze & Hopman, 2014), and the activity of the autonomic nervous system (Kox et al., 2012, 2014).

Research shows that hormetic stress induced through cold showers and baths yields attenuating effects on inflammation and further stress-related outcomes (Gálvez et al., 2018).

As a result of hormesis, the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated (LaVoy et al., 2011); a part of the nervous system which is typically considered an autonomous part that is inaccessible to voluntary manipulation.

Recent findings, however, suggest that the sympathetic nervous system might also be activated using techniques such as the breathing technique from the WHM (Kox et al., 2014; Muzik et al., 2018; Zwaag et al., 2020) or yogic breathing, i.e., pranayama (Jerath et al., 2006; Shapiro et al., 2007; Telles et al., 1994).

Here, it is interesting to note that the breathing technique of the WHM is similar to pranayama (Agarwal et al., 2020; Kiecolt-Glaser et al., 2010), and both appear to yield congruent effects: the activation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to increased levels of epinephrine and a diminished innate immune response, which is expected to attenuate inflammation as is the case with autoimmune diseases (Kox et al., 2014; Zwaag et al., 2020, 2022). Indeed, early empirical evidence suggests an alleviating influence on inflammation in the case of arthritis (Buijze et al., 2019).

Cold exposure is commonly implemented in the form of cold showers but may also encompass taking an ice bath or putting one’s hand or face into a bowl of ice. The goals of this exposure are the creation of brown fat, the reduction of inflammation, increased hormone balance, and elevated endorphin levels (Innerfire, 2021).

Our study thus proposes to follow the combined approach, which is in line with physiological results reported in the literature: while breathing exercises and cold exposure yield benefits on their own, the implementation of a cold exposure practices was found to elevate the impact of breathing, and stand-alone cold exposure best alleviated symptoms in an endotoxemia trial (Zwaag et al., 2022). Hence, it appears that both elements complement each other.

Combined breathing techniques and cold exposure were found to yield the largest positive impact. Individuals seeking to reduce their perceived stress may seek to apply exercises that consider both forms of hormetic stress, i.e., breathing techniques and cold exposure in combination.

So have you tried this, I think fellow Tactical Investor STEFK could probably do this with ease. I tried this and could barely last 20 seconds. Cold showers are not a problem but Ice that's a whole new ball game

[stefk]

Well, you are right Sol. But I practice another protocol for years (thirty years, more or less). After my daily warm shower, I direct the stream of cold water on the legs first (as cold as possible, in winter its fantastic), then the glutes, and then on the scrotum to finish with the balls. After this protocol, you are full of energy, a good method to make your wife happy !!!!! very simple and efficient.

I dont think you can practice the method of Wim every day.

Yeh, been doing cold exposure training (as well as heat/sauna) for many years. Generally do at least one cold shower a day. Have done ice baths for 3+ minutes continuously, including intermittently dipping head below ice. Also done several sessions of 3+ minutes in cryochambers.

The general guidelines are that one should be able to be comfortable taking a cold shower for at least 2 - 3 minutes over the entire body/head prior to progressing to an ice bath.

Attended the seminar when Wim Hof came to Toronto: https://youtu.be/0AayD5cjcAg

I'm not in the clip but was at that particular seminar.

Also do stuff like this every winter:

In fact, this powerful cold hydrotherapy exists since ancient times, it was discovered by the yoga science, and

is called ISHNAAN.

I guess I am going to have to push myself harder. I was always okay with taking cold showers. I feel invigorated afterwards but ice therapy well I never really tried it. I have tried ice-cold water from deep wells but not actual ice until recently. Compared to you and Yodean I am toddler in Ice therapy arena

I hate even a luke warm shower, a wimp in other words.

You are wrong to hate the showers or baths. Jesus was surely an essene or therapeut, he was a master healer. He practiced surely cold baths, like his uncle John the baptist.

Just after WW2, they discoverd the Qumran scrolls.

https://biblewalks.com/qumran

They had an elaborate pools system, the cold baths was a daily ritual in Qumran.

I stand corrected!

John the Baptist was Jesus's cousin just to be pedantic!

Bless me farther for I have sinned, it's been 48 years since my last confession, these are my sins, I have never had an ice cold dip, not even a cold shower like our Lord!

I'm expecting my penance to include saying the hail Mary at least a million times!
