Silver Sol for Candida triggering food allergies?

Candida /Fungus, Questions and Answers, , , , , ,

Question/from ZR:

Hi I have heard of the effectiveness of silver sol and my ND recommended it for me for candida. With the candida I have some food allergies and when I use silver sol before I eat it triggers  the allergies. I have heard that when you take it after eating the salt in the food decreases the effect, is this true and could you tell me the best time to take it? Thank you.

Answer:

As your ND, whom you have paid well,  recommended this, he or she should be the one telling you how to take it and when. However, I will answer this briefly. With the Nature’s Guard Silver Sol that we use, I feel it it more effective taken on an empty stomach, as it will be more quickly absorbed into the blood for benefit. Taken this way is also more effective for destroying any pathogens in the stomach and intestine.

Research has shown that quality silver sol, with the correct resonance can destroy over 600 types of bacteria, viruses, yeasts and fungi.

For those who use silver as a sinus flush, they should definitely perform this at least 1-2 hrs. apart from saline flush. It is the chemical interaction of salt and silver molecules one wants to avoid. This would mean salt as in NaCl added to food, not natural salts found in food.

Questions and answers: Menopause and Calcium versus Magnesium intake

Heart Health, Hormones, Questions and Answers, , , , , , , , ,

We have added a category to our blog for general questions and answers.

Anytime there is something we can help with, please add your question to this category.

We have started with these two questions that came in via email.

Menopause

Question/from CW:

My co-worker at work is experiencing what I think is peri-menopause but quite extreme.  Her heart is pounding (out of her chest as she puts it), insides burning up and very weak…lasts a long time, like at least 20 min the last one….
She is going to make an appt with her doctor but I’m thinking if it is hormonal that Maca may be a good one to balance her hormones.  What do you think?  Any other suggestions as you know more about NSP products for that than I do.  She is on blood pressure meds and on NSP Blood Pressurex and does smoke.  She isn’t overweight and has been exercising this last year.

Answer:

Hi CW,

Yes your suggestion of Maca is good as a hormonal balancer, but I would also think from the description you are giving that this is how hot flashes affect her, so I would recommend FE in addition. As it is time release, she only needs 1 am and 1 pm until she notices improvement, then can may decrease to 1 per day.

Personally I played with these dosages over a period of several years – more when needed, less when not and it worked wonders. Please get back to us if to let us know how she is doing, once on the program. Of course all other lifestyle improvements, such as covered in my book The Paw Paw Program need to be followed.

 

Heart attack and Stroke

Question re: Cal-Mag intake

I read,  “new findings now suggest that calcium supplementation (greater than 1000mg/day) may modestly increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. Although more research needs to be done in this area, it is recommended that individuals meet their calcium requirements from dietary sources…first and foremost, seeking individualized recommendations from your doctor is recommended…”

Answer:

Yes I agree with part of this – too much Calcium is not a good thing. I always try to balance it with at least same milligrams  of Magnesium, or more if any constipation. NSP”s Calcium (in liquid form) includes 200mg Magnesium. There are  also pill combinations of Calcium and Magnesium in Cal – Mag Plus D and Calcium & Magnesium SynerPro . More research shows that Mag. is also essential for bone strength, and Calcium. has been overrated. And yes, we can get lots from food, if our digestion is working. As far as getting individualized recommendation from a doctor? As most medical doctors study nutrition less than 10 hours in 10 years, I think you would do better with continuing your own research or contacting an expert who works with natural health and supplementation, such as you have just done.
