Post-Covid Long Haulers: Natural Remedies and Treatment

I wanted to share another garlic ointment recipe that works great and only takes “5 minutes” to make! This recipe for this garlic ointment is taken from the book “Be Your Own Doctor” by Rachel Weaver M.H. I've been using this on people with covid19 lungs (you know that cough all post-covid patients have but the hospital says they are testing negitive for active covid) along with other internal natural remedies. They tell me that it sure does stink be works in a few days.

Previous article Garlic Salve for Pneumonia EC https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/pneumonia.html#gs

It is used for Arthritic joints, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds, Ear Infections, Sinus infections, Skin infections.

Why would you want to put garlic on your body? Garlic is a natural immune booster/anti-microbial and works to rid the body of viruses, fungus, parasites and bacteria. The garlic juice is quickly absorbed through the skin and starts going to work “immediately”. This rub smells like garlic and so will you. It can be used on small children to the elderly.

Louis Pasteur 1858 (the father of pasteurization), the well known microbiologist, reported that 1mm of garlic juice killed bacteria and he maintained it was effective even against some bacteria resistant to other factors. It was later discovered that one raw crushed clove of garlic contains the antibiotic equivalent of 100,000 units of penicillin and has been proven to be more effective than both penicillin and tetracycline in suppressing certain types of disease carrying agents.

Researchers at Washington State University have found that the compounds in garlic are 100 times more effective than two popular antibiotics at fighting the Campylobacter bacterium, one of the most common causes of intestinal illness. Their work was published recently in the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy. Are you impressed yet?

By blending and mincing the garlic right into the coconut oil you are releasing 100% of the juice containing allicin compounds for immediate use. It is said these healing organic compounds only stay stable for a short period of time. There is a debate in science as to how long this compounds stay stable. Garlic contains approximately 33 bioactive sulfur compounds, several enzymes and 17 amino acids. Garlic is the most studied herbal plant in the world.

Materials needed:

* Blender (I use an old Oster Blender I got at a yard sale)

* Garlic peeled (I use chinese white, only one I can stand the smell)

* Coconut oil

Ingredients:

* 8 – 12 garlic cloves peeled

* ½ - 1 cup melted coconut oil

Instructions/Method:

* Heat the jar for coconut oil in a hot water bath by putting the jar directly in the bath until it is liquid. I like using butcher boy coconut oil sold at Dollartree. 8 oz for $1.25.

* Add peeled garlic cloves and liquid coconut oil to your blender.

* Blend the garlic/coconut oil well on lowest setting. This will take 5 minutes.

* After blending, pour mixture back into the plastic jar the coconut came in.

* Place garlic oil jar in refrigerator if desired or not. Mixture will stay “potient” only for 2 weeks. Make new batch after 2 weeks if needed.

How to use:

Yes, you will smell like a garlic bulb….

* Respiratory Infections. Apply to chest, back, side and neck and on bottom feet (then cover with socks) every 2-3 hours as necessary.

* Arthritic joints. Rub into painful joints at nite before bed.

* Ear infection. In it's melted state, you can put drops into the ear canal and plug with cottonball. Apply it around the outer ear.

* Sinus infection. You can put drops into the nostril. Rub ointment over sinus cavities. Use caution around eyes!

Up the vitamin D3 dose. Some have taken as much as 50,000IU for a few days.

Bromelain 3x higher than the suggested dose

NAC (precursor to glutathione)

Melatonin (I have read 1mg/kg)

Up the vitamin C maybe to 20grams of vitamin C to start for bowel tolerance. If pills crush them, put them in water and drink. Might need 60grams+ per day

Aspirin dissolved in water

Potassium citrate

A decongestant/anti-inflammatory to keep airways open such as an oil to rub on your chest (tea tree, coconut, eucalyptus.....)

Ivermectin every day for 5-7 days

I have read on orthomolecular.org that niacin is very good as is iodine.

These are just some things off the top of my head

This worked for my family:

1) l-lysine. 500 mg twice a day (1000mg total per day)

plus

2) 2000 micrograms iodine once a day

Take the above for three weeks beyond when you feel better. You will probably feel better in about a week plus take the above for three more weeks= four weeks total. Limit your coffee intake severely at this time. This is the same recipe to take for anyone with a frozen shoulder that has occurred spontaneously/without injury. Based on my experience, I believe a frozen shoulder this way is caused by a virus.

So probably the simplest and least expensive (free) option for long covid is to get morning and afternoon sun exposure to get more infrared radiation from the sun to increase melatonin levels naturally, improve mitochondrial function while increasing ATP production to provide energy for the cells to help speed the recovery process from long covid. Since it is winter and very cold in most areas, you can still bundle up and get the infrared radiation from the sun as it penetrates clothing whereas UV radiation does not.

@ Susan UK

Ivermectin is a good choice. However, I see you're in the UK and not sure if your Doctors there would prescribe it. If not, you can obtain it thru veterinary medicine. Sold are products like Noromectin Injectable for Cattle & Swine (you will drink it with orange juice 1.2ml per day, not inject) or Horse Paste Ivermectin 1.87% with no other additives.

Since you stated that Pine Needle tea has been working, just step-up the treatment.

Suramin (the isolated extract) in pine needles. Pine needles are high in vitamins C and A, among numerous other compounds, which provide a long list of benefits:

A 2011 Korean study demonstrated using pine needles in tea was the best way to access the antioxidant benefits from pine needles.

The study demonstrated that the hot water extract of pine needle proanthocyanidins and catechins offers the highest levels of antioxidant benefits compared with chemical extract processes.

There are other known benefits that pine needle tea and the tea made from other conifers share, which include:

• Analgesic

• Antibacterial

• Antifungal

• Anti-inflammatory

• Antimicrobial

• Antioxidant

• Antiseptic

• Antitumor

• Antitussive

• Antiviral

• Aromatic

• Astringent

• Decongestant

• Detoxifying

• Disinfectant

• Diuretic

• Expectorant

• Immuno-modulating

• Improves circulation

• Invigorating

• Lymphatic

• Relaxing

• Relieves nervous exhaustion and fatigue

• Relieves sore muscles

• Restorative

• Tonic

Herbalists the world over have known about the benefits of this tea. Pine needle tea has been used medicinally worldwide for thousands of years.

Make a Nasal Spray:

I would continue ingesting the pine needle tea but incorpate pine needle essential oil (Scots pine – Pinus sylvestris) into the treatment. I would made a home made nasal sprayer (repurposed saline nasal sprayer) by adding one drops of pine needle EO to it's saline mixture and using it afew times daily. This will disinfect the sinus membranes of any residual covid spike proteins remaining in that area since thats were it likes to hide.

Steam Inhalation of Pine Needle Essential Oil:

Steam inhalation – provide the best treatment method for respiratory illness. Add a few drops pine essential oil to a few cups of steaming water and inhale the vapors.

According to “Merck's Manual of the Materia Medica” published in 1899 – Steam Inhalants

List of plant oils uses as inhalants for respiratory problems. Pine (Pinus Sylvestris) – Bronchitis pg. 95,1 dram inhaled from hot water eases cough and lessens expectoration.

How to Steam Inhalation

https://www.traditionalhydrotherapy.com/Techniques/SteamInhalation.html

Make a Body Ointment:

Also, make a pine needle oil body ointment and rub the entire body down (head to toes) to cover the entire skin. Repeat every day. The skin is the largest organ of the body and anything put on it will percolate through the skin into the endocrine system and will distribute it through the body and organs is a result attacking the whole body simultaneously.

Recipe: 20 drops pine needle EO to every one fluid ounce carrier oil (coconut oil or olive oil).

Ingesting the Pine Needle Oil:

You can even ingest by mouth pine needle EO. However, do not drink the tea and ingest the oil at the same time... Only one - two drops in 2 ounces of juice 3 times daily. This is strong! If you think ingesting one drop is crazy, I personally ingest one teaspoon of Pine Resin Gum Turpentine daily as a Candida Protocol. I'm still alive. In Korean herbal medicine, they ingest Red Pine Needle Oil capsules.

Hope this helps….

Resolving Pulmonary Fibrosis Lung Scarring

In August of 2021 I went to the emergency room requesting assistance because I had a lack of energy, great difficulty with breathing and just felt bad. I was told to take a seat and I would be seen as quickly as possible.

The next thing I realize I am waking up in a hospital bed and two months had gone by. I had the Delta version of COVID along with pneumonia (which I have had several times in my life). While I recovered quickly from COVID, the lung damage done by pneumonia had caused excessive lung damage and I wasn't able to breathe on my own.

During the initial stay, I was given a tracheotomy to assist in breathing, placed into a medically induced coma to assist in breathing (supposedly I was told because of my age {62} I might not come out of it) and had a gastric tube inserted to provide needed nutrients along with being placed on a ventilator.

My family had been forewarned if I did make it thru and woke up, I could end up being a vegetable because they had no way of knowing if my brain had become oxygen starved while being in the emergency room and not in an actual intensive care unit. At one point in time, the Dr.in charge called my family and told them if they didn't do something desperate, I would be dead in a few hours. My former wife called in a priest who administered last rights and my family started the funeral process on my behalf. Being the royal pain I have always been, I survived and eventually recovered enough to be brought out of the coma.

Spent 2.5 months in the hospital and another month in Rehab having to learn how to walk again. Went home the second week of November.

Had a Pulmonary visit in January of 2022 where I was informed I had Pulmonary Fibrosis and given time, it would take my life. I was also informed I had excessive lung scarring due to the aggressive pneumonia and there was no cure for the scarring and it would get worse as time went by.

I had a laundry list of medications including twice a day steroid inhalers, twice a day Nebulizer treatments, numerous meds and I don't remember any longer what else there was.

I was forced to go on Social Security because I had difficulty just getting up the staircase to my apartment. This sucked!

Stayed with the meds routine and ended up back in the hospital at the end of May 2022 for a week. I was pumped full of steroids and sent on my way. My next Pulmonary appointment wasn't until the first full week of September.

Felt great! .....for about 6 weeks then the congestion started returning and I felt none of the assorted drugs were truly doing any good by the way I felt so I decided it was time to go to plan B.

First hit up this website then started researching medical studies (outside the US) and saw a pattern developing surrounding Hydrogen Peroxide diluted with distilled water and given Nebulizer treatments several times a day.

So I bought a bottle of 12% FOOD GRADE (not that stuff for external use) Hydrogen Peroxide and a gallon of distilled water. Did some basic math and determined I needed to dilute it to 1.5% (to start) and around 4-5 cc's at a time in the Nebulizer. Started doing this twice a day and coughed constantly while using the Nebulizer. The gunk in my lungs were not happy to see this stuff and let me know!

After 3 days of this I could breathe again and I could feel the congestion breaking up! By the middle of August, I felt sooo much better that I could go out for walks again (really short ones).

Kept up with this twice a day until the end of August. Starting in September, I cut back to once a day and increased the dilution ratio to 2%. I was now also increasing my walking distance an it was up to a mile now. Went to my Pulmonologist appointment, explaining what I was doing and got a look like I had just fell off a turnip truck! The Dr.had no idea what I was talking about and couldn't condone it . He suggested I stop this and return to the drugs that weren't doing me any good. Don't hold your breath!

By the end of September I was walking 2 miles a day and had cut back the Nebulizer treatments to once a week having increased the diluted ratio to 3%

In October, cut back to once every two weeks, holding at 3% and increasing my walking to 3 miles a day. By November I was walking 3 miles both morning and evening. Had to stop this because my knees were giving me grief and cut back to walking only once a day.

In December I went in for a Cat Scan of my chest prior to my upcoming office visit with the Pulmonologist in January. By the end of December, I was at 3.5 miles a day in walking forgot more often than not about the Nebulizer treatments.

January 2023 rolls around and I head to my appointment. Met with the Dr.and he had a strange look upon his face. This had me concerned. I asked him if he looked over the Cat Scan results and he said he had (while gently shaking his head). The Dr.told me there was no lung scarring in the lower portions of my lungs and only a small amount up top!

After the Dr.and one of his residents had left the examination room and closed the door I could hear him telling somebody, " I have no idea how he became so dramatically better in only a year". I told him how but, its not part of Western Medicine.

You need the 1.87% paste and make sure there are no other meds just Ivermectin.

Dosage is 1 notch per 50 lbs. I'm 200lbs I take 4 notches. Sister is 150 lbs and takes 3 notches. More is not better.

Take 1 dosage a day for 5 days stop 2 days if cured stop. If still sick, do 5 more days. Stop 2 days.

Go to daystar.com to find doctors who will prescribe human pills of ivermectin.

This is Dr Mercola's recipe and it works very well.

16 ounces distilled water, 1 tsp Redmond's salt or Celtic sea salt ( NOT table salt), 3/4 tsp 12% food grade hydrogen peroxide. Regular hydrogen peroxide is not recommended.

For each nebulized treatment, add 1 drop Lugol's 5% iodine. It's best to put it into a glass jar for storage like a mason jar with a good seal and keep refrigerated after mixing to prevention decomposition.

The thing about SURAMIN is no joke. Scientist Judy Mikovits said it's the cure to Covid and the spike proteins of the vaccine. She said the elites would not leave themselves without a cure... and its Suramin. I don't think Earth Clinic allows links necessarily but use either Pine Needle Tea (I use a second black tea bag in there for flavor as well) or look up Contamishield which is the only actual product I've seen whose base is Suramin.

I had covid twice and I got IBS because the virus remains and multiplies in your gut. After 7 months of diarrhea with every meal and trying different foods, I realized the only thing my body could digest anymore was cruciferous vegetables. Most probiotics made me worse until I used culturelle daily advanced with a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar every morning. After 2 months my body is finally back to normal. You will notice improvement in a week.

N-Acetyl Cysteine will clear your lungs: 500mg for every 1500mg Vitamin C that you take. Ideally 3000mg Vitamin C with 1000mg N-Acetyl Cysteine twice a day/after breakfast and after dinner.

10,000mcg Vitamin D3,500mcg Vitamin K2,50mg Zinc: Twice a day.

Jeannie,

This is what I saved from georgekramermd.com

Directions:

Dilute 1 oz (5 mL) 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in 16 oz Saline Use 3cc diluted mixture in each nebulization treatment Place mask over mouth and nose and breath normally until solution is gone, normally 10-15 mins.

Repeat hourly the first day; 4-6x daily until infection is resolved.

Note: if no saline is available distilled water can be used. Food grade Peroxide is recommended but drug store variety can be used. Some doctors suggest a stronger mix of 15 cc Hydrogen Peroxide to 16 oz water. If stronger mix burns, then back off to a more dilute mixture.

Oscillococcinum Boiron oscillococcinum homeopathic Medicine for flu-Like Symptoms, 36 Count

Visit the Boiron Store4.9 out of 5 stars 1,466 ratings| 6 answered questions read the reviews, I use this for pain from hiking sand dunes with bags of rocks. Also alkaseltzer with aspirin in it or baking soda alkalizes. I take baking soda and it negates my vitamins and I know because fleas start to bite me, (low b vitamins). 2-3 Activated charcoal internal + 16 ounces water, with colace to keep it moving and topical castor oil (palm of christ) packs will knock most pain down.

We live in the Western U.S. where we use red or white fir needles, fresh off the trees, to make "pine needle tea". We go to the forest in the spring to cut new growth needles which are bright lime green color. Throw about 2tablespoons of the cut needles into a mug, cover with boiling water, let set for about 5 minutes, strain the needles, and enjoy! The tea tastes like a walk in the woods smells!

Our local Ponderosa pine needles are toxic to humans. We have found that the fir needles work very well to fight covid infections and long haul symptoms. And They are free!

I was using organic pine needle tea and after several uses I had an allergic reaction. If you are allergic to pine trees keep this in mind.

Hello Art, et al.

Came across this article today in the news and thought it might interest some of you.

Muscle abnormalities worsen after post-exertional malaise in long COVID

Lysine, N-acetylcysteine(NAC) + Bromelain, Lysine, Cayenne pepper, Goldenseal

Remember Cayenne pepper enhances supplements movement through the body, it moves blood. pill form 90k shu is amazing with supplements.

Another update to help others, I think long haul started to slightly come back, I stopped taking lysine and started back up. so make sure you take lysine I also saw a post on n-acetylcysteine(NAC) and bromelain curing long haul.

Also learned long haul covid lives in your gut
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7999995/

Make sure you eat before taking the bromelain, Taking this with NAC deactivates covid.... yeah... amazing isnt it? I started taking both of these 1 pill each.

I started taking goldenseal on the recommendation of barbara o neil who has amazing videos, shes probably going to be banned soon so make sure you listen to her stuff. Goldenseal is antibacterial and I think I was fighting something as well like a bacterial infection from having a stomach ulcer and taking nexium for 7 years.

Don't let long haul kill you off like it was designed to, I took a ton of supplements and these are the few that worked. make sure you try to walk a mile or so a day just to get your life force back.

I am in my high sixties and take about 50 supplements and powders.

For what I assume to be Covid fatigue for the two years since I first caught it in December of 2020, I recently have had a fabulous result by taking a slightly rounded measuring teaspoon (3+ grams) of pytosterols (plant sterols) powder with water, mornings, starting almost three weeks ago on 11/25/2022.

I had read the idea of trying phytosterols for Covid fatigue, so I ordered a BulkSupplements 250 gram bag through Amazon. I wanted the 500 gram bag but Amazon didn't have that size and I needed Amazon's Hub Locker delivery options. I may try BoxNutra's kilo size of 95% phytosterols powder next.

So I started by taking a half level measuring teaspoon of powder, mornings. I didn't notice anything until I doubled the dose on day 5, and then I got an immediate, huge increase in energy like an adrenaline rush.

The adrenaline rush became unnoticeable in a few days, and adding a second teaspoon dose in the evenings just made me a little more tired. So the morning dose would be the time to try the two teaspoon dose.

I am however still happy to be taking phytosterols. I had also once read that Covid should be treated with steroids and anticoagulants. So I thought the similar sounding plant sterols were worth a try. And apparently plant sterols are a form of steroid that plants make and need.

After catching Covid three times during 2021, I actually got rid of my obstinate Covid lung congestion in August of 2021 by taking Amazon's Durvet 1.87% ivermectin horse paste, apple flavored, which precipitated me to intentionally cough up lung mucous for about 12 days. Then my lungs and sinuses were finally clear, but this fatigue remained. So I hope the fatigue is now fixed by the phytosterols.

For no particular reason, in late 2021 I stopped taking the horse paste after 15 months. Then I found 400 mg per day (100 mg every 6 hours) of zinc picolinate to be able to reverse several sore throats for me during the first half of 2022. I then tried 600 mg per day but it caused indigestion. I then stopped taking zinc picolinate.

So now in late 2022, I noticed my fungal toenail had returned from years ago, along with some jaw related pain. I had previously cured the toenail by taking 2 tablespoons per day (after a meal) of unrefined macadamia oil for two months. The fungal toenail actually lifted off of it's bed, and new, healthy toenail regrew over the next year. So now to re-cure the fungal toenail and to suppress some jaw pain, I am again taking Carlyle's or PipingRock's virgin macadamia oil internally, at about 3/4 measuring tablespoon every 6 hours, and I haven't had a sore throat yet this winter at all. At 18%, the macadamia oil is the highest food source of palmitoleic acid, an antimicrobial. Olive oil has only .3% to 3.5% of palmitoleic acid or about one sixth of the macadamia oil's content. So next I may order a gallon of virgin macadamia oil from TheSulu.com in Chicago.

Please tell what has worked for you. I have covid and oxygen level stays around 95 percent, but when I get up and do anything I drop to 85. I am not coughing very much at all, but my chest feels very heavy. I have been taking 5,000 vitamin d3,30 zinc, 1000 vitamin C every day and does not seem to be helping. I did take 1 dose of the ivermectin and four days later a second dose. Not sure if it helped me at all, but it did cure my son within 24 hours.

Sorry, you are misinformed about this.

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the National Task Force on Covid-19 have dropped the use of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drugs from their revised guidelines for the treatment of the infection.

The decision was taken after experts found that these drugs have little to no effect on Covid-related mortality or clinical recovery of the patient.

“HCQ may be considered for removal from guideline, with recommendation to use with caution only in clinical trial setting (since there is some genuine uncertainty regarding the possible benefit for severe cases and in low dose), ” said the document titled ‘considerations for exclusion of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine from the clinical guidance for management of adult Covid-19 patients'.

Several clinical studies have shown the low mortality benefit for HCQ, said the document. In fact, when HCQ is administered with azithromycin, it increases the risk of adverse drug effect (ADE) in patients, experts said.

Studies also found there was no clarity on mortality benefit, no effect on length of hospital stay and recovery in case of Ivermectin.

The recommendations were made at a meeting of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and the ICMR national task force for Covid-19 and the Joint Monitoring Group on August 20.

Ivermectin can be easily prescribed by just seeing the right, medical doctors or the right naturopathic doctor using a simple process. When the pandemic hit, my friends and I, decided we would all get geared up with Ivermectin. We figured we would use Frontline Doctors, but their system on-line was problematic, with error messages, slow, and no call backs. We concluded they were overwhelmed, and the system was to hard to access. It might be better now. Long story short, we found Pushhealth.com it has a list of doctor that you can choose or they will just line you up with one, they just call you and I just requested Ivermectin as preventive and then a pharmacy called me from our state and boom the prescription was filled $40 and just send to our home. It was so much easier that FL, plus convenient, and inexpensive. Also it is sometimes best to be already established with ND that does IV's I have one and it is amazing blessing to have access to one if needed.

A second round of covid is in my household. Ugh. My husband is in his 70's, it started with him. I am of course using the same supplements to fight it. I can only get him to agree to so many things. He doesnt like melatonin. I have been fighting it with everything I have, including increasing my melatonin (10mg) to one every hour from 6 pm to 10 pm, and if I wake up in the night I take another one. The other supplements are lysine, C, zinc, magnesium, we're both gargling twice a day with peroxide, salt, warm water. Oh and a daily dose of ivermectin horse paste and xlear nasal spray 4 times a day. This is day 4, he has improved so much! I, so far, feel fine and not going to test. My sister says I should be wearing a mask and gloves! :)

Another research finds that long covid symptoms point in two directions- Dysautonomia (an umbrella term for various autoimmune conditions) and Mast Cells Activation Syndrome (not to be confused with other disorders involving mast cells).

There are articles:

“antihistamines improve cardiovascular manifestations and other symptoms of long covid attributed to mast cell activation” (Frontiers of cardiovascular medicine)

“Long covid following mild sars-cov-2 infection: characteristic T cell alteration and response to antihistamines”

There is also something about melatonin, but I have to read Art's posts, but in short it does lots of good things..

If you or your doctor suspect Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, a very nasty thing for which there is no real tests or treatments, and want to try OTC antihistamines to see if it would make a difference, here is the guidance:

H1 receptor blockage. Choose one

• Loratadine (Claritin): Start with 10mg before bed for one week. If no improvement, 10mg in the AM on empty stomach and 10mg before bed

• Flexfenadine (Allegra): Same protocol as above with 180mg tablets

• Cetrizine (Zyrtec): Same protocol as above with 10mg tablets

• Benadryl : High probability of drowsiness so only use as a last resort. 25-50mg before bed (in my personal experience Benadryl doesn't cause drowsiness)

H2 receptor blockage:

• Pepcid: 20-40 mg before bed or 20mg twice a day on empty stomach.

Nicotine Cure for LH Covid

Just heard this on a podcast from a natural healer. He said to use a 7 mg nicotine patch on your arm, each day for 6 days, and you won't have it anymore. I can't attest to this personally. Lots of people are suffering from this, so hey, it's worth a shot.

Stay well everybody.

2 years on my husband is still struggling with terrible brain fog and headaches after a bad covid bout. The ONLY thing that keeps it at bay is pine needle tea, We have used more than one species. He allowed himself to run out a few days ago and yesterday and was visibly flagging. About half an hour after taking a cup of the pine needle tea he was responsive again and the headache lifted. This has happened a few times where he has stopped the tea and had bad symptoms return. It's cheap and easy to try. He uses about 2 teaspoons of dried needles in 300ml of water.

Thanks Art!!! Appreciate you taking the time to respond to my questions. Have a great weekend!!

Karie, read up on h2o2 inhalation or soaking methods.

Try diluting it to 1%.

I hate to say I see these posts often here promoting the website FLCCC Alliance. I would question this post.

You are using PolitiFact as a source to "prove" you are correct? I'm sorry, but that's funny for so many reasons.

Alldaychemist.com you can get ivermectin.

Drinking DMSO for mental clarity following COVID and strokes

I have had two fascinating experiences with drinking 1 tsp of DMSO daily following a case of what some might think is or call "long COVID". My experience was such that I became very ill this past year for nearly two months. It was essentially pneumonia, but had a lot of other symptoms associated therewith that made it feel much worse than a lung problem. Thought I was going to die with this, but I managed to naturally cure myself.

I found myself mentally clouded and having terrible trouble with recall (I was normally exceptionally fast and higher end on the IQ range) which has been a death sentence for my work. After a lot of desperate trials of various things I stumbled upon oral DMSO consumption for brain damage patients.

I really didn't have much else to lose at this point due to my recall necessity, so I gave it a shot. I'm about a month in of taking 1 tsp of DMSO a day with about a glass of distilled water and I have been amazed at the results.

I believe I'm at about 90% of where I was before and perhaps, in some ways, better than prior to falling ill. I think my middle aged mind is closer to performance of about 15 years ago at this point. I'm not perfect in recall as I was, but I'm at about 90% as I said. The ways in which I'm better is that I'm feeling more alertness than I did before.

The next thing to report is that a loved one who has experienced brain damage from a series of strokes seems to be improving finally after being also desperate and trying many "medical" options. So far we've seen an improvement of about 10% of where they were and it seems as though this could go farther.

I am considering using 2 teaspoons per day as some have suggested - maybe spaced out prior to bed and in the morning - but I am still wanting to be on this protocol for a few months before taking it further.

Oral DMSO is nothing short of miraculous.

One caution here--if you are using the tube for horses or the tube for goats, the notches are not equal, so read the label. The larger the animal, the more dose per notch--so you cannot go by 50 pounds per notch. Maybe on some, but the one I'm looking at right now, from my cabinet, is the horse one and each notch is 100 pounds.

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

My father is 30 days post covid and he is negative now but his breathing is terrible. He was using a walker and was winded and could not have a conversation on the phone without losing his breath. I came across Bill Munroe's method via this website and we immediately started the hydrogen peroxide via the mist bottle. We have been doing 3 pumps twice in a row due to him not being able to breathe very well until we could get him stronger to do the 6 pumps. We can see a big improvement just 24 hours into it. Today is 48 hours. I purchased a glass bottle mister from Amazon.

We have been doing the 3 pumps 2 times in a row every 2 hours and the last application he said it burned his throat. We have stopped the treatment via the mist bottle and I'm wondering if I should get him a nebulizer. Is the mist bottle spraying too much verses the saline bottle you can wash out?

Anyone else experience the burning in the throat and or can you give advice what to do so we do not have to stop the hydrogen peroxide? It is working. If we want to do the nebulizer, what is the recipe please? TY so much in advance for all your help and God Bless everyone and I'm sure Bill will be getting many Blessings from the Lord for sharing this recipe and helping so many other people.

Hey Mark, any brand will do- just make sure it's just unsulfured blackstrap molasses. It has helped tremendously in regaining some energy. Hope you and yours are recovering well if you've had Covid.

You have no idea what you're talking about. What is being suggested here is absolutely on point. You must be an allopathic system hack. The FLCCC is highly reputable with doctors that actually treated patients on the front line. So is Daystar. They had many, many shows with the doctors of FLCCC and top doctors and researchers throughout this whole p a n d e m I c fiasco.

Have you had Covid, or Lyme? I had both for almost a year. I have also taken Ivermectin for illness. I do not recommend it at the does that are online. Is it safe? When taken as supposed to be. Not high dose, and not multi days.

Stand by opinion. Do not abuse ivermectin. It has its uses and specific doses. I don't hold the opinion that it should be used daily at higher doses for anyone. My dog gets it ONCE a month. I had to take take one dose then three weeks later another dose. It's very strong and not to be used often.

FLCCC I do not trust them with anyone's health.

Julie, thank you so much for this it is so helpful. We are trying to save my father's life right now. Can you tell me if you used a nebulizer and if so what was your recipe. God Bless you.

WARNING!

Do NOT take iodine if COVID-19 attacked your kidneys or if you have kidney disease.

Unlike other diseases, which harm your kidneys because of too much inflammation, COVID-19 directly attacks and kills your kidney cells that filter your blood through the ACE2 receptor.

Personally, my kidneys were swollen after I got a fever from COVID. They did not hurt, but I couldn't sleep on my back without them bothering me. By about the 5th day the swelling went away. My kidneys felt like a deflated balloon but nothing painful and any other problems with urination other than a lot of foam on my first piss. Later, after having no other symptoms for a while, I still noticed fluid in my lungs every morning, so I looked for long hauler treatments. I purchased and took Lugol's iodine as recommended. The next day my kidneys have been bothering me since with always some foam/bubbles in my urine. It's been a week and I'm still having problems but they come and go now. Possible permanent kidney damage isn't worth it. Look for other remedies if you're a long hauler.

Has your husband tried a course of ivermectin? That would be my first course of action, followed by a Hulda Clark parasite cleanse protocol.

I had covid fog and the lack of energy that comes with it. The covid brain fog was diminished in 24 hours and even better at 72 hours. My energy started returning at about 72 hours. I noticed my eyesight was clearer the first day. I take 1 oz of Colloidal gold Nano 20 ppm every morning on an empty stomach.

Hi, could you share the recipe for culture vegetables and water kefir please?
Thank you

There are numerous books, videos, and web sites where you can find instructions for making your own cultured foods and kefir water drinks. Try book stores and libraries or search on line. One excellent web site is culturedfoodlife.com. I am confident that the probiotics in my diet greatly strengthened my immune system which effectively destroyed the COVID virus that had entrenched itself in my body. I continue to include plenty of these probiotics in my diet each day and the health benefits are remarkable.

Pine bark extract

Hi Art: what are your thoughts on using the above for covid long haulers? I read a post on EC where someone said this was what brought him back to 100% so this caught my attention. Also, there were a few people on Amazon who said they used it for high BP as well. Thank you in advance for your response. Thank you for all you do for the EC family… greatly appreciated.

Looking for safe white pine needle tea? So many ads, not sure where to order from.

Good day, how much paste did you use? Thanks

NAC which Amazon is selling will increase glutathione levels. Can take as much as 2400mgs a day.

Hi Karie,

My mother is still recovering from this Covid, Sometimes when you have something so bad you have to trough everything at it But the kitchen sink. She had a real hard time eating due to a very bitter taste in her mouth. She was able to consume light purple grapes. The key to this is to chew the grapes very well the help is in the skin and needs to be chewed for a very long time.

I also had her drank Green Tea. I bought 85% Dark Chocolate, she had a hard time with this due to bitterness. Oranges, Tangerines she was able to eat lots of

Also, 1 gram of Carbohydrate Boost ( Found in the Diabetic section ) really helped her and her blood sugars. and help her regain a lot of strength. I had her was her nose with a Sinu gator ( you could use a netti pot as well ) with the salt pack and add ( one drop of Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo to the boiled water ) Be sure to boil your water for 5 minutes. Zicam gummies she took lots of and they seemed to help.

She did a nebulizer with some meds from the doc, she was diagnosed with Covid Pneumonia. Oxygen level never went past 95. So her lungs were pretty clear.

If you need 1% then you would take the 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide and mix 1 part HP to 2 part distilled water in mister.

Use then rinse your mouth, that will help.

Why??? Because you are opposed to alternative treatments??? If that is the case, don't read them and move on. But for the rest of us, the reason we are here is because we are starting to see through mainstream medicine.

Get your facts right

https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/may/21/gateway-pundit/no-proof-drugs-not-approved-us-covid-19-caused-dro/

Our ruling

The Gateway Pundit claimed: "COVID cases in India plummet after government promotes ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine use."

COVID-19 cases in India, one of the worst-hit countries in the world by the coronavirus, dropped in mid-May only after a nearly vertical spike in cases over the previous several weeks. The Indian government has given limited recommendations for using the two drugs in connection with mild COVID-19 cases.

There is no evidence that the two drugs caused or contributed to a decline in cases in India. Neither is approved in the U.S. for COVID-19. And both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the World Health Organization recommend against using them to prevent or to treat COVID-19 infections, citing lack of scientific evidence of their effectiveness and the potential for serious side effects.

For a misleading statement that has an element of truth, our rating is Mostly False.

No, I didn't use a nebulizer but my step son did and he said it helped him. Sorry it took me so long to see this. I hope all is well.

Glad you are better now, Mark.

Could you please share where you purchased the Korean Pine Needle tea? I looked several weeks ago at my usual source for herbs (Mountain Rose Herbs), but they do not carry it. I did see some pine needle tea listed on Amazon, but you never know for sure who the seller / source is. Thanks!

Amazon has Korean Pine needle tea. Also check eBay and Etsy.

A company in California sells a spray that contains suramin. Https://www.narayanbeauty.com/products/pinon-pine-gold-hydrosoul-2-oz-22-00

Hi, when did you start feeling better? Or could you give a breakdown of how your recovery went? I just ordered going to give it a try

Chris Masterhohn, PhD, has a protocol for Long Covid.

I was wondering which specific strain of probiotic is in your Culturelle since there are different ones. Thanks!

Where did you find the organic combination?

Amazon

If in doubt about the dose, simply weigh the paste on a gram scale. Once you know what dosage you want to take of the ivermectin, you need to calculate how much paste would contain that amount. All the horse pastes I've used contain 1.87% ivermectin.

for example: if I want to take 0.4mg per kg of body weight. I will first find my weight in kg, which is 68kg. Now I take 68kg multiplied by 0.4mg to find the ivermectin dose, which is 27.2mg. In order to get 27.2mg of ivermectin, I need to calculate the amount of paste by taking 27.2 divided by 1.87%, which is 1,454.54mg. So I would need to take 1455mg (1.455g) of the paste. I like to put it in capsules for the kids, but I have also just squirted the paste slowly onto a piece of parchment paper that I have sitting on the scale.

Would you be willing to share from where you ordered? I was referred to a site in India but they sent me a fake PayPal invoice so I dust placed the order. Plus I'm leery about quality.

I am using 3 parts purified water and 1 part HP for the nebulizer. I have no experience and am still researching and learning. I see people have used himalayan salt, iodine, and saline. I need to know what else to use with the HP. I have looked everywhere and cannot find the recipe for nebulizing. I see Bill's recipe for the mist and we did this but the burning in my dad's throat has caused us to stop the misting, so can someone share what their recipe is for nebulizing? how much HP, water, etc.? or maybe share links as to why using saline or salt? Thank you so much for your replies. We are fighting round the clock to save my dad. Even right now at 1am we are trying to get him to breath. We did the nebulizer every 2 hours today but at night, it is the worst for him to breath and now we have to stop the nebulizing I just found out the equate brand of HP from walmart has stabilizers and so we will be without nebulizing for a day or 2 until the pure product gets to us.

Any suggestions or help would greatly be appreciated.

Dr M did a really good write up and videos on nebulizing HP. The articles included dilution ratios.

You will have to look for them as the articles are hard to find now.

It helped me when I needed it.

Edward, can I please get the nebulizer recipe you had. I am thinking my father is not using enough. I only have him nebulizing every 2-4 hours and only 3 inhales. What is the recipe you used, please? TY so much. God Bless!

What is wrong with stabilizers? Of all the videos I've watched I've never heard anyone say not to buy HP with stabilizers.

Thank you.

Shirley,

I was wondering if I was diluting it too much? But if you are saying 1% I'm so sorry I cannot figure out what you mean please help and ty

Hi, Which brand of BSM do you use? Thank you.

To Julie R:

Are you talking ivermectin pills or the horse paste? If the horse paste, how much did you take per day and did you have any adverse side effects from it?

Hi Brad. I saw your post on EC and wondered if I could purchase some of your Ivermectin. I've had Long Haul for weeks. I'll be better one day and think I'm getting over it and the next day can hardly get out of bed. Send me your mailing address or your phone number and we can discuss your payment.

Would Ivermectin work on the Eustachian tubes and rigging, from covid it's been 10months

Ivermectin

I am considered a long hauler. I took 3 mg of Ivermectin for 3 days. My tongue is still numb and my joints are horrible. Can someone share some insight on what to do?

Why thank you Orin. I will certainly check Etsy, as well as locally. Blessings to you.

i got the CA spray but I do not feel like anything is getting out. I wrote to Ashley who said HYDROSOULS work that way. Did you pump it?

Hi Mark, Thanks for sharing. What brand of Korean pine needles did you use? How much Korean pine needle tea were you taking every day? Thanks

What brand did you use? I have tried without success.

Can you tell the the dosage of the tea and also where you bought it from? Much thanks.

Hi E, I just wanted to know how long did you take the Apple Cider Vinegar and coconut oil for? Thank you

It doesn't work. I've tried the protocol for 4 months. Nothing improves.

Thank you for the information. I just got Covid so I'm trying everything to kill it.

Greetings from the Horn. I got Covid and it went down my entire nervous system. It also triggered diabetes...as I was borderline. Any advice as I am suffering from yeast infections and high sugar in blood? Is Ivermectin useful at this stage? Thx
