I have had recurring breast infections since my son was born 25yrs ago. I had numerous surgeries. It keeps coming back. I tried everything under the sun. Hydrogen Peroxide, Alcohol, iodine, hot compresses, antibiotics. I have just discovered that soaking with Epsom salt completely healed me. It worked fast. I am continuing to do this twice a day to make sure it is completely gone. I am amazed. I was going to go for surgery again. I want other people to be helped. This is a miracle for me.

View 1 RepliesCommon Table Salt In A Warm Bath Cured My Scabies
I was very happy to find that common table salt in a warm bath cured my Scabies. After soaking for 15 minutes, get out of the bath and drip dry. Do not use a towel, but if you must, just pat dry with kitchen towels as they are more hygienic.If needed, repeat after 4 days.
I feel this treatment should be made public, as it is free of harmful poisons associated with common cures prescribed by the physician.
The salt will get into the mite holes to kill the eggs, and also kill the mites on the surface almost instantly.
This is something all families have readily available in the kitchen, and is very simple to use.
Make sure all bedding is washed in at least 50 degrees, and clothing is changed and washed as hot as possible.

Pregnancy Age 35+ :: Gave My Dog A Flea Bath Using Shampoo
Not thinking yesterday I gave my dog a flea bath using shampoo containing pyrethins .15% and piperonyl butoxide 1.5%. I'm nervous of the effect this may have on my pregnancy and brain development especially at this time. I'm reading these chemicals can cause autism. I washed my hands repeatedly after I realized this was a stupid thing to do. But I also had a small cut so I'm more worried about the chemicals absorbing in my skin and blood. Do you think I caused permanent damage? I'm a nervous wreck.
I gave her a bath today with regular shampoo and used a glove. However I reached my hand into the rise water to pull the drain, would that be a second exposure if flea shampoo was in the water? I washed my hands again repeatedly.
Chickenpox :: Age 36 - Rest, Bath And Drink Plenty Of Liquid
I had been back from a holiday in Bulgaria for 3 weeks. I had started to go running again to lose a few pounds. I started to feel very sore and tired.
I fought the aches and pains with ibuprofen but it became worse. i got up for work on a friday morning and could barely move. When I dried my skin after the shower, it felt sore and tender. I went to work, dosed up on Paracetamol and could not stop sweating. I felt a little better as the day went on but noticed large spots on my head and back. I just assumed i was a bit 'run down'.
when I arrived home, i took my shirt off and discovered large blisters. I also noticed a few more had appeared on my head. PANIC!!! I went to the emergency walk-in centre and the NURSE(yes,nurse) said I had 'Folliculitis'(inflammation of my hair follicles). I went home and
within 2 hours my face and head felt like they were on fire. I didn't sleep well and the following morning I felt faint,nauseous and my face, head body,feet, ears, eyelids and nose were covered in blisters.
Another trip to hospital, this time to see a DOCTOR. He diagnosed Chicken pox(my 2nd dose in 18 years). He prescribed some penicillin in case the blisters become infected and nasty. They didn't, but I wasn't going to take the chance and took them anyway.
I rested, consumed a lot of liquid and very little food. I bathed tentatively in warm water and washed with 'HIBISCRUB'(the soap surgeons wash with). I also covered most of the blisters with calamine lotion and iodine.
I felt depressed, fed up and looked hideous. I am now into day 9. I have managed to shave and the effect of the blisters on my head and face have been immense. I won't be ready to go back to work for another 2 weeks, at least. The blisters have dried up and fallen off but I Am left with the scabs and reddening. Hopefully, i will not scar.
My advice is to rest, bath,drink plenty of liquid and get used to being bored. I thought I was fit and healthy and the chicken pox has hit me like a sledgehammer.

View 2 RepliesEpsom Salts Benefits To Relieve Constipation And Bloating
I've posted on here about my now-frequent bouts of constipation. Have relied on Stool Softeners which have done the trick. I eat veg, not keen on fruit and can't stand fruit juice, Have upped my water intake: good results. But I don't want to take these for long periods.
Well for some reason I was remembering my dear ol' mum and her issues around constipation. I believe she, myself and one sister had this tendency: the rest seem to go as often as a racing Greyhound!!
Well, I remember my mum each morning making up a small concoction of Epsom Salts, mixed to a paste with water then washed down with a cup of tea. Within half hour she was flying past us to the loo!
When I was feeling completely bunged up, I did wonder if this might work for me. But I have to say, as great as she was, my mum had some funny ideas about medicines etc, so wondered if this was just one of her many 'alternative' ideas she'd come up with herself! She would have been 95 now, and died (not from constipation!!) at 81, so she had a good innings.
Well, that funny lil ol' girl was doing something right for once! I read a really good article about Epsom Salts and their health benefits. The article name-dropped Gwyneth Paltrow and Victoria Beckham soaking in E'salt baths to reduce bloating (what? on them two - who they kidding?!). But more importantly it went on to mention soaking in a bath with the salts to help aching joints......
