Meniere's Syndrome

What Holistic or Natural Approach I would Take if Diagnosed with Meniere's Syndrome

by Thomas Martin

Here is what I would do if diagnosed with Meniere's Syndrome:
 

• Magnesium Chloride (spritz about 15 shots on skin and rub in with your inner forearm just before bed,
• Lugol’s solution Iodine (a blend of iodine and potassium iodide), about 10 to 15 drops on my skin, rubbing it in with my forearm, daily. 
• I will take Vitamin B12, in the form of Methylcobalamin, sublingually, 5 mgs, daily.
• I will take 50 to 150 mgs of Zinc daily,
• I will take Niacin, working up to 500 mgs daily, with a meal (starting at a lower dose and increasing it weekly), 
• I will stop using all grocery store salt and instead use Himalayan Salt in my food, but I will not use a salt-restricted diet

• I will take Vitamin D3 - 5,000 to 10,000 iu daily,

• I will make fermented vegetables and eat about 1/3 cup daily.  My gut flora is likely out of balance,
• For motion sickness issues, I will take 4 tablets of Kali Phos and let them melt under my tongue
• I will not consume any caffeine,
• I will eliminate all artificial sweeteners from my diet such as aspartame

• Raw, Virgin, Cold-pressed Coconut Oil  - 2 tablespoons (or seven teaspoons) daily (work slowly up to this level as coconut oil also acts as a laxative)
• I will eliminate all Sugar, Wheat, Corn and Soy from my diet

DISCLAIMER:  I am in no way recommending treatments or cures on this blog.  This blog is merely a compilation of what I have learned about a diet based, natural approach to health. I follow the steps I outline in my book Just Do This One Thing: A Guide To Chronic Good Health and know I will avoid almost every disease listed in this blog.  On the other hand, I needed a place to write steps for specific ailments as I came across them.  If you are looking for alternative therapies, I hope you can benefit from my research, especially if your doctor has told you "nothing more can be done for you."

Dyslexia

What Natural or Holistic Approach I Would Take if Diagnosed with Dyslexia

Dyslexia seems to be related to Autism and Asperger's Syndromes.  So, the solution to the problem is the same

Toenail and other Fungi

What Holistic or Natural Approach I Would Take If Diagnosed With Toenail or other Fungi Disorder


by Thomas Martin


This is another real-life problem for me.   I struggled with toenail fungus for about 14 years.  I tried all of the over the counter remedies but would not submit to the oral drug.  That drug has a nasty side effect of permanently damaging your liver, a risk I wasn't about to take.  

If you have toenail fungus, keep in mind you have fungus throughout your body.  It is best to address both simultaneously for the greatest level of success

So, here is what I did:L

• Topical Treatment
• Apply Oregano Oil, along with Raw, Virgin Coconut oil to the affected toenails each night (You may want to wear cotton socks over your feet while doing this).  You want to use oregano oil extracted specifically from oregano vulgae.    
• Internal Treatment
• For the first seven days, take two to three drops of the oregano oil in whichever beverage allows you to drink it.  The taste is quite pungent, so try water or even organic concord grape juice.  I added it to my vegetable/fruit smoothie.
• Take zinc, 50 to 100 mgs daily
• Eliminate the following foods from your diet for at least 30 to 60 days:
• All sugar and sugar substitutes
• All milk, with the exception of plain, organic yogurt
• All alcohol
• All wheat, corn and soy
• Potatoes and White rice
• To help support liver function:
• Take silymarin (or Milk Thistle), three times daily
• Upon rising in the morning (first thing, before any other food or drink), squeeze the juice of an organic lemon into a glass of room-temperature or slightly warm water and drink it.  Do not eat or drink anything else for about 30 minutes.
• To aid in general health, removing of the fungi:
• Eat about 1/2 cup of fermented vegetables each day
• I do one coffee enema daily (optional)

  It isn't essential you do all of these steps, but the more you do, the more likely the fungi will die.
