OMG.....I just toured all of the forums...and the various threads. Those Zeolite ads are only showing up on top of THIS thread. :huh:

They're targeting us OMG'ers because they know we're all toxic!! :blink:

You wont find zeolite ads above the other topics....I think it's just for us. :unsure:

OMG...I think I might be on to something! :o

Lisa...other Waiora distributors have their link's up there. Maybe you can ask Scott how you can get your link up there too. That way if anyone wants to purchase the zeolite....you can just say "scroll up to the blue link." :D

Everyone else gets ads for gluten free foods and such. I guess they realize we cant eat that stuff....so instead we get zeolite ads! :huh:

Aaaauuuuurrrrrrrrgggghhhh!!! There's that song again! :lol:

I only take 15 chlorella tablets right now. I'll be taking 52 on the removal days though. That's a lot of chlorella! :o

The ads are keyword based. Since we talk about zeolite, they are going to show up. You have to pay for those through google.

Aaaaaah....that explains it Andrea. :)

Its nice to know that we're not being targeted as the "toxic crowd". :lol:

I was kind of freaked out that they were only appearing in this thread. :unsure:

So does this mean that whatever I talk about will be advertised at the top of the page?? :huh:

hmmmm...

bad girls, bad girls...whatcha gonna do.... :lol:

Kassandra....something has to be causing the anemia. So maybe if that underlying problem were addressed the situation would improve?? Just a thought.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Dr H is pretty sure it's the babesia, but I've been in babs tx for about 7 months, and nothing has changed. The hematologist wants me to have an endoscopy and colonoscopy to rule out any malabsorption problems and/or internal bleeds. He said that I could have a tiny bleed that is causing this...who knows? But he does want it ruled out. I plan on going to a LLGI soon, but we gotta get my period straigtened out. (4 months of bleeding as of next week! :o )

Hey Kassandra has your gyno checked you for fibroids? I was telling my mom about you and she was curious as to what is going on.

I don't know. I think so, but I don't know how they check for that. If it's through a D&C, ultrasound or hysterocopy, then yes she has checked. :) I see her on Monday for a post op appt and we will go over her findings, etc. and hopefully will come up with a game plan for me.

Yeah my mom had fibroids. I will ask her about what tests her gyno took on her to see how he found out. Did they do a pap on you and turn the speculum sideways? I know sounds painful but I think that's the way you see them.

I've had it done this way and it actually isn't that bad. But I'll as her tomorrow.

How was the wedding? :)

I think they saw my fibroid on a CT scan. I also had ultrasounds during that time but I think they saw it first on the CT scan.

Yep--between the ultrasound and the hysterocopy she has thoroughly checked for fibroids. The hysteroscopy gives a full detailed picture of the inside of the uterus and the ultrasound will catch fibroids both inside and outside of it.

I'll be waiting to hear about your appt. on Monday, Kassandra :)

He totally does :lol:

I did the same thing with my NAET treatments, I would just fall asleep immediately after, and I would sleep hard. My Dr at the time explained that it was like the circuits were being switched off and then reconnected and turned on again, so yeah, I don't know :huh:

Maybe the zeolite is rewiring you as we speak :lol:

maybe julies right and it is rewiring you to eat pizza and ice cream

Mia, I hope so!!

I think that should definately be a priority in the whole "rewiring" process.

The brain function stuff can come later....but first things first....pizza and ice cream please!! :D

Just popping in to say hello.

I used my lightworks on my shoulder and it helped .... but it stirred up a lot, too. This might be a good thing, but can't really tell from one day. :D

Have they done a endometrial biopsy? My mom asked me if they did that to you yet.

Did they do a transvaginal ultrasound where they put it up thier or a regular one? Or a colposcopy to look at the cervic area?

If they didn't do these procedures, I'm surprised they haven't.

Well....that might still work since brainfog is one of the worst symptoms. So maybe I'll be able to eat pizza and ice cream without having to retreat into my own world for a few hours. :P

OR...maybe if I'm totally sane and clear headed I actually wont WANT to eat pizza and ice cream! :o

Maybe if I have more common sense...I'll just avoid it altogether!

OMG....that is a horrific thought. :blink:

I hope it doesnt come to that.

Yes, you'll definetely will be able to eat pizza and ice cream with no brain fog. But it won't come to you not wanting to eat these things at all. :)

Me either...my love for pizza and ice cream is just too great. :P

Well, I learned that if I have a sulfation problem my OAT results for oxalates would not be reliable. :(

If oxalates in the urine are high....this definately indicates absorption of oxalates from the gut. However, if the levels are low it may not represent the amount of oxalate absorbed from the gut. Its because if there is insufficient sulfate in the system it will impair the kidney's ability to remove oxalate from the blood and into the urine.

So that might be a problem for me because of my issues with sulfation.

I think if my results do not show a problem with oxalates it wont change my mind....I feel that I have enough evidence at this point to convince me that it is a problem. Although it would be nice if for a change I could have verification with the lab results. :rolleyes:

Also, even though its definately important to replenish acidophilus and bifidus...they prefer other foods over oxalate....so they are only mediocre at degrading oxalates. The main bacteria for getting this job done is oxalobactor formigenes. It needs oxalate in order to survive...so if there is plenty of this bacteria available a person can eat plenty of high oxalate foods without any problem.

Lots of antibiotics can kill off this oxalate eating bacteria and as of now it is not available in any probiotic. It is currently being developed and will be sold as a drug (and no doubt it will be expensive).

Tetracycline

Doxy

Flagyl

Biaxin

Augmentin

Erythromycin

Chloromycetin

These are just some of the abx which can kill it off. I took the 3 which are highlighted.

Everyone,

Today i had an idea. I was thinking of making a little msn group with the bunch of us this thread, That we could chat about stuff and feel less stressed about posting on here were everyone in the world can read it. We can still talk on here about medical stuff, but when we want to get goofy, we can post it someplace else. I could even work on have an chat room in there. I know carla had trouble last time, but maybe we could figure it out this time lol. We could also talk about swapping supps.

paula

i really hoping asking this isnt breaking any rules. Just let me know if anyone is interested.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      Sigh. I posted this yesterday based on the Safeway website. I went back again today to their website to double check. On the page where they are selling Vanilla Bean flavor, it has a distinct Certified Gluten Free label. Other flavors on the Safeway website didn't have the gluten-free statement. Today I went into the store. None of the flavors I looked at, including Vanilla Bean, have a Gluten Free statement. Is it safe? Who knows. The ingredients are either safe or nearly safe (some have "natural flavor"). There are warnings about "contains milk and soy" but not about wheat - this implies they are safe, but again, who knows. On the other hand, every flavor I checked of their Slow Churn line of ice creams has wheat as an ingredient. 100% not safe.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Do keep in mind that many of the newly diagnosed have lactose intolerance.  This is because the villi lining the intestinal tract are damaged, and can no longer make the enzyme lactAse which breaks down the milk sugar lactOse.  When the villi grow back (six months to two years), they can again produce the enzyme lactAse, and lactose intolerance is resolved.  However, some people (both those with and without Celiac Disease) are genetically programmed to stop producing lactase as they age.   Do be aware that many processed foods, including ice cream, use Microbial Transglutaminase, a food additive commonly called "meat glue," used to enhance texture and flavor.  This microbial transglutaminase has the same immunogenicity as tissue transglutaminase which the body produces in response to gluten in people with Celiac Disease.  Tissue Transglutaminase (tTg IgA) is measured to diagnose Celiac Disease in blood tests.  Microbial Transglutaminase acts the same as Tissue Transglutaminase, causing increased intestinal permeability and inflammation.   New findings show that microbial transglutaminase may be able to trigger Celiac Disease and other autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.   Microbial Transglutaminase is not required to be listed on ingredients labels as it's considered a processing aid, not an ingredient in the U.S.  Microbial Transglutaminase has been GRAS for many years, but that GRAS standing is being questioned more and more as the immunogenicity of microbial transglutaminase is being discovered. Interesting Reading:  Microbial Transglutaminase Is a Very Frequently Used Food Additive and Is a Potential Inducer of Autoimmune/Neurodegenerative Diseases https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8537092/

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/
