I heard that someone did this (over a period of time) and it completely whittled down and destroyed all their teeth, causing them to need fake teeth.

Yes! We've avoided doctors visits and antibiotics with this. Not just for ear infections, either. My wife has used it to treat mastitis and in general we've helped curb infections by taking raw garlic.

I rinse with H202 and coconut oil pulling for my teeth. I had a small cavity in the inside front lower tooth that is no longer sensitive- I can't see anything either. Hoping it's gone. Also mineral rinse to re- mineralize.

My husband was having periods of confusion especially at night. He had had an incident at the chiropractor which I suspect loosened plaque in his carotid and he seemed to have stroke-like symptoms after that. He refused to go to the doctor so I had to figure things out. I started him on K2 ( he already was taking D) to attempt tp move the calcium out of the vessel, Nattokinase to keep the blood thin and Turkey Rhubarb drops which was reported to eliminate stroke symptoms. After 5 months he no longer has these episodes at all. He seems fine, praise God. I can't say for sure that it was the supplements but I'm sure glad I gave them to him.

Also BORAX (20 mule team is the one) for (osteo) arthritis pain and calcium regulation. It works immediately as it has a short half-life so I take itwice a day. It takes at least 50% of the pain away. The dosing is very dilute so you kind of have to know a little bit about it, but Borax tetrachloride is the element as it is found in nature, so the laundry product is a pure mineral.

I also make stinging Nettle tincture for allergies , arthritis, gout - so many things. It is one of the most miraculous plants ever!

For tinctures, you don’t want to cook any herbs but only dehydrate them.  Then put in either alcohol (pure grain alcohol = high, high proof) or Apple Cider Vinegar for 6 months.  Mixing the bottle a few times a week at minimum. 

Alcohol will bring out the medicinal effects of herbs; ACVinegar will bring out the nutritional effects.

Is there a benefit to tinctures as opposed to nettle tea? Is a tincture more concentrated, and therefore faster acting? 

Wow! I had no clue Borax was edible in diluted amounts!  We use it as any poison and mix it with sugar or peanut butter depending on the type of ant. t

I would love to know your recipe for nettle tincture!  Do you have to cook the plant ahead of time of just place in alcohol for a few months?

Borax dilution is a natural remedy that can help alleviate arthritis symptoms.^{[color=var(--search-text-04)]1}[/sup][/font][/size][/color] It is recommended to take 1-3 tsp of a dilution daily, adding 2 tsp to half a gallon filtered water.^{[color=var(--search-text-04)]3}[/sup][/font][/size][/color] To maximize the benefit of borax for arthritis, it is recommended to drink plenty of water with it. To avoid the risk of side effects, start with less at first to make sure the remedy suits you. One liter of borax is over 4 cups of water, which is a significant dilution of 3X more than of a single cup/glass.^{[color=var(--search-text-04)]1}[/sup][/font][/size][/color] Borax can reduce the daily loss of calcium by nearly 50%, which may be the most important factor in causing osteoporosis and tooth decay. Boron is a successful treatment option for arthritis, and in more than 95% of cases, significant improvement was noticed by effectively increasing calcium integration into the cartilage and bone.^{[color=var(--search-text-04)]0}[/sup][/font][/size][/color] Borax can also be safely used internally when properly diluted, mixing 1 teaspoon borax with a quart of water.^{[color=var(--search-text-04)]2}[/sup][/font][/size][/color]
