I'm sending this to many groups. I apologize for all the duplication but there are just too many good groups and not everyone can be on all of them. This experience turned into so much more than I ever dreamed it would and it was so incredibly easy and CHEAP that I have to relate it to as many as possible. Besides, I've promised this to more people than I can remember now so this is the best way to get back to them all.
Please do me a favor before emailing me with a question. Please read it again to be sure I haven't already answered it. I'm terrifically busy these days but if you have a question that I have not covered, I'll be glad to try to help. I have now done several months of Magnesium Bicarbonate ingestion, first by the Seltzer & MoM method, then by what I call the "2 powders" method. I will recap how to use the two different methods. The methods at a glance: 1) 1 liter of Seltzer water chilled for minimum 2 hours, uncap and don't shake, add 3 tablespoons Milk of Magnesia, shake well and check it and shake it until there is no settlement. This is a concentrate. Suggested dilution into distilled or purified drinking water (no chlorine) is 1/3 liter to one gallon water. 2) Magnesium chloride flakes, grind to a powder, keep very dry and well sealed in zip lock bag or good storage container with double sealing lid. Start by taking on empty stomach, once daily, 1/8 teaspoon, wait 3 minutes, take 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda. Be still for about 15 minutes when you start doing this, taking note of any "funny" feelings. Work up to 1/4 teaspoon daily doses. I found no reason to go higher and actually found too much to be detrimental to blood calcium levels. First method is like a family car, but even then it's like a cantankerous car. Second method is like a monster truck, not for the faint of heart. Be aware that both can cause quite a bit of pain and discomfort in calcifications lodged in the circulatory system and can do so within 15 minutes of ingestion. The second protocol is much more prone to do this. If you do this, you take full responsibility for your own actions. There is the possibility of EMBOLISMS. Fortunately I did not have that to happen. Both can cause pain and even looseness in calcified joints after dissolving that calcification. For alleviating that, you have to learn joint nutrition, which is way too much to discuss here. This helped greatly with my heart arrhythmias although I still needed more iodine, especially potassium iodide, to beat that. I actually started down this road to alleviate heart arrhythmias. Boy did I ever get more than I bargained for and it was a really good bargain. This helped with my blood pressure although the primary thing that lowered my BP was my focus on both natural and supplemental forms of vitamin C. I'm 55, still overweight, but my BP is running 125 or less over 80 or less. Lately I've seen it as low as 120/78. I just could not have believed this would happen a couple of years ago. Back then I was regularly at 155-165 over 80-90. The first method did wonders for my left hip though for two days it made that hip hurt exquisitely; I'm very accustomed to the idea of "No pain no gain". It will HURT when calcifications are dissolving. I continued on with the second method when the first was obviously doing nothing else for me. Boy was I ever NOT disappointed. Everything after this point is about the TWO POWDERS METHOD. On two separate occasions, I felt something happening in my head, in my brain. I knew it was my brain because there was no pain. All I can say is that it was a weird feeling and that the brain gets calcified too. Those two instances were by far the scariest thing that happened to me. They happened on successive nights (I did this mostly at night) and never happened again. They happened when I was taking 1/4 tsp of the 2 powders. Honestly, the first time that head thing happened it scared me pretty bad. I thought "OK Bubba you've really gone and done it now, you've given yourself a stroke". Well for all I know it could have been a mini-stroke but there were absolutely no negative effects otherwise. I just felt strange for a few minutes, that's all. Everything still works. I also had several instances of burning, near-pain sensations in my heart, chest and carotid arteries. This was usually one place at time, one night at a time. It seemed to start in my heart for a few night, then moved to my carotids, then to my chest. Eventually I felt nothing at all from taking as much as 1/2 tsp of each powder. The effect on my left hip, which has been a problem for me for a very long time, started with the MoM method. Surprisingly, that method yielded probably 75% of the overall total of good effect that I got in my hip from both methods. Now I have no pain in that hip to speak of anymore. Although I can tell it is not as strong as my right, it's getting stronger almost daily. For the most part, that hip is no longer a big drag on my life now. Whatever was wrong with that hip had a connection to numbness in my center 3 toes of my left foot. That is gone now as well. I also have had for 2-3 years a serious left heel pain which appeared to result from either a bone spur or calcification in my foot. This did not appear related to my hip problem. Whatever it was, it's gone and it went away rapidly from mag bicarb use. My right knee was and continues to be very interesting. That knee has been turned slightly backwards and has been damaged by gout. In years past that knee would get bad and begin to get very wobbly. In recent years it had improved or so I thought. As it turned out, what I thought had been improvement was apparently calcification. The mag bicarb dissolved that calcification and the knee got really wobbly again. Some serious efforts at nutrition have really strengthened it since although it still gets sore. For now, rest and a neoprene brace brings it back for the most part, sometimes with a little help from DMSO and/or some Blue Emu. I still have a way to go with that knee. My right big toe had been damaged by gout and gotten calcified. I could not squat on my toes because of it. That calcification was dissolved and the problem was resolved. My neck has more damage from head trauma that I care to relate again here. The mag bicarb caused a very good loosening of my neck, with much more gain of flexibility than I had previously, and there have already been many other things that have had very positive effects on my neck in the past 6-7 years or so. This was some real icing on that cake considering what a neurosurgeon told me about my neck about 5 years ago. I eventually developed Tetany from doing the 2 powders method too strong and too long. It took about two weeks of doing this every night, past the point of having any kind of *sensations*, before I encountered Tetany. (I did this protocol nearly every night for a month, so all the sensations happened in the first two weeks.) I also had increased my dose to 1/2 tsp of each powder by this time. Tetany is a) not enough calcium ions in the blood and b) too many bicarbonate ions in the blood. The tetany manifested as a very sore and tired neck, headaches all over my head, obvious scalp muscle aches, and the beginnings of a bit of heart arrhythmia. It was very easy and quick to reverse all of this by stopping the protocol and drinking a lot of raw milk. None of that has returned now after several weeks. I'm doing this protocol only a couple of times a week now at most. I take something like 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of each powder, just eyeballing it. I have now started on digestive enzymes and can tell that a few good things are happening from that, but for the really big stuff, that work is apparently done now. As regards embolisms again...It is known that a certain fellow had a stroke from taking too much digestive enzymes too fast. I may be completely off base about this, and even hesitate to add this, but here's my mental picture of what goes on. My mental picture is that enzymes "eat" deposits and may do so in a ragged manner leaving dangling bits to break off and cause an embolism. My mental picture of the action of magnesium bicarbonate is that it acts like a belt sander leaving a fairly smooth surface; Repeated usage just comes back and sands the deposit again until it's gone. Like I said, I could be wrong. DaddyBob -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
