A Remedy For Bloating And C

I read this in Natural Health magazine and thought I'd share the info...

It says, "Red Mandarin oil is able to trigger the release of gas. This antispasmodic is strong enough for adults with constipation. Combine three drops of red mandarin oil with one drop of peppermint oil and apply to your abdomen when you're bloated."

This is from pg. 24 of the March 2006 issue. I'm pretty sure the oils can be found in most natural foods stores. I haven't tried it yet myself so I can't say if it works. Might be worth a try though. I notice people are always searching for something to do to relieve bloating and such when glutened.

You rub the oil onto your stomach?

Or it is a pill?

Hi Mamaw,

I'll definitely let you know if I try it! I hate to recommend something I know nothing about, but how great would it be if it works :D

I think you rub the oil onto your stomach. You would use the little bottles of essential oils found in the aromatherapy section of a health food store.

I haven't been able to find the red mandarin oil in any of the health food stores. But it would be nice for someone to try it and see if it works. I really could use it because I feel like a stuffed pig at times.................

If you do try it please pm me with the results as I don't always get back to the original posts.....

thanks

Just make sure the oil is gluten free please, they may use a gluten filled oil as a vehicle for the red mandarin. We had to really make quite a few calls from my health food store when I was looking for hydrangea oil for kidney stones. A lot were NOT safe.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
