A few posts back I made a comment about staying on subject with this web site. It was originated by Lisa so that floxies could exchange information about what helped and didn’t help them. Lets stop the idle banter and get back to why this site is here. Lets stay on subject. OK?

More and more info about Fluoride toxicity,coming out:
Very interesting article about light stimulation with Near Infrared therapy “up the nose”. Yes,really;one of the effective methods to fight Alzheimer is,putting N-IR 810 nm leds in/up the nose! I guess my new IR bulb is a bit too big for the job.As is your panel,Don ;-))
I want twó of those nose-clips,ánd the headlights.That combination will scare the hell out of anybody,daring to ring at my door after dark :-))
Well,kidding,of course;but when this technice works,I’d sure like to have the set,and give it a try.For now,I stick to my Sota Bio Tuner (formerly called: Braintuner),which does about the same by electro-stimulation. And,like with the Neuro RX Gamma,the effect declines in a few days,after stopping the treatment.Daily us is a must,for a permanent effect.
How could we have ever survived without these devices.Or;ain’t it better to search for the cause of Alzheimers,and ways to prevent it? Like;never drinking fluoridated water or use fluoridated “medicines”? Or over-heat our anti-stick frying pans?
But,to be honest;those devices are pure fun,although heavily overpriced. Bob Beck would (let you) make one for $ 30-40 (it’s,in fact,just a timer.to generate the Gamma mode (40 Hz),and a few leds..Beck’s device would let you chose Alfa,Beta,Theta ánd Gamma mode,produced by his friend from Sota,for 10-20 % of the price you pay for the Neuro RX Gamma.
Maybe I’ll modify my Novag Mind Activator (model:Holiday).Some N-IR leds in the headphone.and dismantle the eyeglasses,to put the red leds up my nose,and there we go…Oh,wait;better change the red leds from the eyeglasses for real N-IR ones,like those I put in the headphones.It will work;I’m sure :-))

I’ve tried to place a list of fluoridated “medicines’,here,twice,but it doesn’t show up.Might it be the Akismet spam filter,thinking it is a commercial?Anyone knows how to do it?For now,the list is given to me,on Mercola.com;it’s in one of the comments (mar6915):
Quite a lot of interesting info about Fluoride can be found in those comments,as well!

When we are fighting these toxins and the behemoth industries that make them, and our so-called protection agencies, it’s important that we be careful factually. It doesn’t take much for us to be “called out” as exaggerating, or making stuff up. This is on my mind because I just read the weekly email “Floxed Friday” that I subscribe to. It is written by the director and producer of a film called “Floxed.” I applaud her efforts and I think it’s great she does this. BUT there was a glaring factual error in this week’s email.
She said it was illegal for anyone over 60 to be prescribed cipro. This is not true. There is a black box warning, for those over 60…which is, as it is called, a warning. It means that there are more serious risks, perhaps even life-threatening risks, for this age group. It means that the physician and pharmacy should be addressing this with the patient so the patient can make a more informed decision if risks outweigh benefits. (It is called a black box warning because it has a black box around it, to call attention to it.)
So if any one you subscribe to this weekly letter, know that what was said about it being “illegal” in the US for those over 60 just is not factual.

I just ended a 48 hrs fast, I wanted to do a 72 hrs fast, but, like the previous times, after the first day, I started to get the symtpoms of a relapse, so this time I cut it short and end up at the 48th hour mark. The sad thing, is that, everytime I tried a water fast, not only the symptoms came back, but I’ve never noticed any improvement even after refeeding. Right now, after I ate something (fruits, water with lemon juice) even my digestive symtopms came back in full force.
I remember you too have tried a fast, what was your experience from it?
PS anyone who’s reading, feel free to share your experience, if you’ve tried a fast too

Dr. Axe on white tongue. “White tongue is a sign that something isn’t right with the body. Thankfully, there are natural remedies that help clear up the issue. Colloidal Silver, probiotics, baking soda, oil pulling, sea salt and oregano oil are just some of the easy and natural treatments for white tongue”.
I read here that some people had bad reactions to septocaine or articaine at the dentist. It seems that the same happened to me last month, I just didn’t figure it out at first because that I had had that many times before without issues during the floxing.
But now my neuropathy has been much worse for 6 weeks so there can’t be any other explanation than the articaine. The question is: what to take next? I have soon another appointment, a couple of fillings needed. One possibility is to do it without numbing agents even though its not fun.
Btw, has anyone of those of you who had a bad reaction to local anesthesics tried to take that local anesthesic as a diluted homeopathic version? That might stop the reaction.

Hello all,
would you go for MRI with contrast die (gadolinium)? Do you have some experience with it? Is it toxic to your body? I am thinking about getting it.
Thank you.

Oh, and of course, the neurologist who prescribed my the MRI told me there were no side effects with Gadolinium. I told him about the restriciton and the brain stuff. He just said “don’t worry, and don’t read too much on the Internet”…yeah, I did it already in 2016, when another funny doctor prescribed me a FQ…

Sheesh – one can’t invent it. When confronted with such, I send in rafts of information to prove the point, and, ask them to please do us a favour, and do diligent research before blindingly submitting patients to such detrimental toxicities, toxicities with well proven unwanted side effects. Our bodies, not theirs.

Can anyone please tell me what antibiotics do NOT affect mitochondria.
I need to be treated for serious infection and doctors seem lost as to what to prescribe.

No added Fluoride in EU tapwater,but no reason to think it’s safe:”Trihalomethanes in Drinking Water and Bladder Cancer Burden in the European Union”:

From a previous posting by L. Here is a piece from Dr Axe, who I like, on causes of white tongue. https://draxe.com/health/white-tongue/
