Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Tony and All, My husband has been displaying intentional tremors in his left arm and when at rest. It almost looks like Parkinson's. I was reading that it Parkinson's may have something to do with mercury. Any thoughts on the left hand/arm tremor and possible protocols for healing? thanks.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Mercury can indeed cause Parkinson's and Parkinson's like reactions. So can statin drugs (which are a medical hoax to begin with), pesticides, alcoholism and possibly aluminum. If he has amalgam fillings, I would urge him to get rid of them asap!From my Collected Remedies ebook, and also posted online at The Best Years in Life website: Parkinson's Disease Larkspur: 20 grams in 4 cups of boiling water; do not drink more than 3 cups a day, a mouthful at a time. Lady's slipper is good for tremors, especially in debilitated conditions; it clears depression. Use a standard decoction or 3-9 g; tincture, 10-30 drops. Take 3 or 4 times a day for maximum effectiveness. Skullcap: Combine with lady's slipper for broader action. Strengthens the brain. Standard infusion or 3-9 g; tincture, 10-30 drops (Very often, instead of skullcap germander is given as skullcap. Ask for the genuine herb.) A combination of herbs that include rhubarb, peony (paeonia), licorice and magnolia bark are said to stop tremors and relax stiff muscles. Consult a herbalist for proper dosage. Bupleurum Formula with Paeonia and Licorice Combination with magnolia bark - for persons with irritability, debilitating anxiety and insomnia. Alcoholism is one of the possible indirect causes of Parkinson's, and herbal remedies which support the liver, pancreas and adrenal glands help to alleviate symptoms. Ginseng, horsetail, hops, skullcap, passion flower and valerian root help to alleviate symptoms of Parkinson's. Prepare a herbal tea using 1 tsp. of herbs in 1 cup of boiling water and drink 3 cups daily. Herbs also may be used synergistically with the appropriate drugs used to treat Parkinson's disease. For example, passion flower was found to improve the effectiveness of the drug L-dpa (levodopa). It reduces the passive tremor when used with L-dopa. (more than when using L-dopa alone.) However, passion flower only has minimal effect if used alone. Take one-half teaspoonful of passion flower tincture three times a day. Ginkgo biloba scavenges free radicals and boosts circulation to the brain. Select a product containing at least 24 percent ginkgo heterosides (sometimes called flavoglycosides) and start by taking 40 milligrams three times daily. If you feel fine at that dosage, you can gradually increase to as much as 80 milligrams three times daily. Degenerative disease is often facilitated by the accumulation of toxins in the body. The following herbs have detoxifying properties: Burdock root, dandelion root, ginger root, and milk thistle detoxify the liver. Cayenne (capsicum), goldenseal, mullein, Siberian ginseng, and yarrow stimulate the thymus and lymphatic system. Caution: Do not take goidenseal internally on a daily basis for more than one week at a time, do not use it during pregnancy, and use it with caution if you are allergic to ragweed. Do not use Siberian ginseng if you have hypoglycemia, high blood pressure, or a heart disorder. Hawthorn, licorice, red clover, and sarsaparilla cleanse the blood. Caution: Do not use licorice on a daily basis for more than seven days in a row. Avoid it completely if you have high blood pressure. Yellow dock cleanses the blood and detoxifies the liver. Black cohosh catnip, lemon balm, passionflower, skullcap, and valerian root have anti-stress properties and can help nourish the nervous system. Caution: Do not use black cohosh during pregnancy.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 If it is Parkinson's, you may be able to slow down the progression. All considerations for eliminating toxicity and alkalinizing the body should be undertaken.Michael L Goebel, DC, ACNMichelle <Yahsway wrote: Tony and All, My husband has been displaying intentional tremors in his left arm and when at rest.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Parkinson's is very complex. About 75% of patients will improve using a safe mercury detox and this includes removing any offending dental work meaning amalgams, implants and root canals. Some things I've found that can help (once severe damage is done it's very hard to reverse so the sooner he starts the better and there are different kinds of Parkinson's, some which are worse than others): -Natural Cellular Defense (safest mercury detox) -Seal oil (be sure to get a reliable source if you use this since seals are likely to be full of mercury. A BC, Canada company I spoke to at a wellness fair has had good results with this. Sorry I don't remember the company's name. -amino acids to feed the brain (young form of Reishi is good) -infrared saunas if there is chemical overload -diet and home must be free of chemicals, especially MSG & Aspartame (some Parkinson's is from mercury and aluminum but others develop it more from chemical exposure...either way stay away from chemicals) -magnets & magnetic energy (bracelet for arm tremors...Nikken has an excellent one that also has infrared reflecting material...sports bracelet is about $30...don't waste money on flea market bracelets). Nikken's insoles are excellent for a person's balance for any balance issues from Parkinson's to MS to athletes that require good balance. These affect the whole body and using the insoles will also work synergistically with the bracelet. -homeopathy (shop around and make sure the person you see knows what they're doing or you will waste a lot of time and money. I like the Heilkunst method as opposed to classical homeopathy) -as with any illness, keeping the body in an alkaline and stress-free state is crucial -heavy metals will block certain nutrient receptors so you need to really flood the body with concentrated, nutrient-rich foods and in my opinion, healthy oil-rich foods too but again, oils are not easily absorbed unless the gut is in order...bit of a vicious cycle which can only be fixed with a good detox. Try avocado oil, coconut oil and/or hemp oil which are more absorbable than other oils and use digestive enzymes and probiotics to bring the gut in order. Feel free to email me and I'll put together a proper list with links and resources. As the need arises, I'm creating new files so you're actually doing me a favor by asking too. I think it's important that we all learn to " doctor " ourselves.
