Really good, Jimi...just finished working......
Same as always, Jimi. While yesterday was when Winter officially started (solstice), today was the first full day of Winter and the high temperature was 34 and right now (almost 11 PM), it is 21. Yup, this is the beginning of Winter.
I forget when it actually began, was it Sept?
Mine was pretty good just did some catch upon the honey doo's, how was your's
Not really. Spent some time researching hypothroidism because we suspect that might have been the root cause of her current pains (bodies are so linked that a hangnail might turn out to be the reason for kidney failure, or something like that). Most treatments for that are synthetic chemicals (all of which make her incontinent) and I am trying to find a more holistic treatment, with less cost, less pissing in the house, and less pain for her.
"Officially," yesterday, but yes, September is when the winter-like coldness started.
Rich...try some liquid B12, Selenium and Iodine....it works, well....!
In what doses? B12 is great for the nervous system, and the thyroid needs iodine, but very very little (sometimes what is in the salt that is in your food is an overdose). What would the selenium do for the dog?
Correct me if I am way off base here, but I always thought ashwagandha was used to reduce mental and physical stress...
Those three products worked for me, I would dose dependant on weight....I'm about 185lbs....therefore, I take 1ml of liquid B12, 4 drops of iodine, and one 500mg of selenium, daily....my hypothyroid dropped like a rock. It was perfectly normal my last doctor visit Friday.
It has so many uses but also works to balance the thyroid
I've read that too...I think on Mike Adams website.
When dosing by weight, do you use current weight (109) or what she should be for her skeletal frame size (60# - she is overweight because of the thyroid issue)?
Jimi...I got a shitload of veggies for the juicer....hopefully It'll make about a liter tomorrow....love the flavors.
You were correctly, the straight juice is so much different than just making smoothies with the veggies.

I seen that from that Holistic Vet, the herb guy, I sent you a link a while back
I'm taking notes on what both of you are saying. I still have some serious research to do to save this dog's ass and maybe have a head-to-head ... ummm, "discussion" with the vet on how she is going to be treated and with what medications. Neither Lannie nor I are the types to lie down and let a doctor dictate to us. We will find a better solution.
The benefits and how good it makes you feel are much greater too than a smoothie
Rich, you don't have to be perfectly accurate, in small doses none of the products will cause harm. It's really astonishing how many people are not getting enough iodine, zinc, B12, selenium in their regular diet. Many don't get enough on a healthy diet
I'll look through my notes in the morning and see what else I can find Rich
True, Jimi....I'm going with the garlic and onion tomorrow, included with the carrot celery, etc etc etc
That's because the soil is so worn out and full of toxins
If you know Mike personally, send him an email...I'm sure he could help.
If you stay with it every day you wont believe how much better you feel, I am almost to week 4 and can't believe the difference, I drink 2 quarts every day in 8 ounce intervals
Wow, you been on a strictly juice fast for four weeks now?
Thanks, and all potential solutions will be checked thoroughly. Currently, we suspect the thyroid caused the kidney issue, which in turn caused the stomach ulcer. I know we need to attack the ulcer first to get her back on a healthy diet, but then I have to go back "upstream" to make sure everything gets fixed so there are no recurrences. Did that make sense?
yep that and salad twice a day to chase the hunger away, gonna try to make it for four months
Perfect sense, I should have thought about the thyroid last night, but didn't....I'm glad something clicked for you and Lannie to consider it could be a cause of the problems.
Right ON....it takes balls NOT to eat shit food (even once in a great while) - you have the balls my friend...!
Sounds like a sound plan to me. You know the vet is gonna say you are crazy and that naturals don't work though. There are some new holistic vets popping up here and there, probably more here than there though.
That's the target area, I am hoping so.
It really hasn't been to bad, finding it somewhat easy.
AND, the longer you do it, the easier it gets....so I;ve read
We are a real "Odd Couple" in that, unlike most married people, we actually do sit down and have logical discussions, do serious scientific and/or medical research, fit the pieces of the puzzle together and move forward in a joint effort.
It sure seems to be
You know what's really funny here? If you look that up on Googlie, 9 out of 10 websites discussing it are not even in English, yet it is commonly available at Wally World.
Have a good one, Jimi...!
I haven't looked, but wouldn't doubt it.
I agree. It is a night. And when we talk again tomorrow, it will be another night. So, now that I am insane, I will bail out too and leave Dale to turn out the lights. Ah, maybe I am not so insane as I have led you to believe... Ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........
Hope you figure it out, Rich....I'd send Mike an email for the hell of it thoI agree. It is a night. And when we talk again tomorrow, it will be another night.
