Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I would research it more before trying, but apparently 1/2 tsp Baking Soda (Bicarbonate) in water makes the body alkaline and helps correct Gout. Drink this 3 times a day. All the best Diana Moore www.bowentherapy.homestead.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Addressing Gout Naturally Dr. Anthony Cichoke has written a very clear and concise article explaining why gout develops and the recommended nutritional support and supplements needed to help reverse natually. Gout is a metabolic disorder caused by excessively high levels of uric acid in the blood due to either excessive production in the body or decreased elimination by the kidneys. The uric acid then deposits in the joints and sometimes the kidneys and other organs, It most commonly affects the big toe (a condition called podagra) but may also affect the ankles, insteps, knees, wrists, elbows, and the cartilage in the ears....A diet rich in fats, overindulgence in alcohol or food, and emotional stress can all trigger an attack of gout. Other triggers include minor trauma, surgery, fatigue, a penicillin injection, illness, and renal insufficiency. Risk for gout also increases with the presence of thyroid disorders, diabetes, kidney disorders, hyperlipidemia, anemia, vascular disorders, and hypertension. Enzyme Therapy Systemic enzyme therapy is used to decrease pain, swelling and inflammation and to stimulate the immune system. Enzymes improve circulation, help speed tissue repair, bring nutrients to the damaged area, remove waste products, enhance wellness, and build general resistance. Digestive enzyme therapy is used to improve digestion of food, reduce stress on the gastrointestinal mucosa, helps maintain normal pH levels, detoxify the body, promote the growth of healthy intestinal flora, and strengthen the body as a whole. Digestive enzymes also serve as replacements for the body’s pancreatic enzymes, leaving the pancreatic enzymes free to perform other functions in the body, such as decreasing inflammation. Topical enzyme skin salves and creams are used to penetrate the superficial layers of the skin and decrease pain, swelling and inflammation. Papain and bromelain are helpful, particularly in combinations with other plant-based enzymes and cayenne powder. The following are also recommended supplements by Dr. Cichoke: • Superoxide Dismutase and catalase preferably micro-blended with whole foods such as red and blue green algae. • Acidophilus and other types of probiotics to improve digestion and stimulate enzyme activity. • Coenzyme Q10 of at least 120 mg a day. A potent antioxidant is always good to use when attempting to decrease inflammation. • Essential fatty acids from flax seeds or wild-crafted blue green algae to help strengthen cell membranes. • Fresh, enzyme-rich fruits and vegetables (particularly green vegetables) should comprise over 60 percent of the diet. They help increase the body’s excretion rate of uric acid. Be sure to include pineapples, papayas, figs, and sprouting seeds. If your body cannot tolerate raw fruits and vegetables, increase your intake of digestive enzymes, or sauté or steam your produce lightly. • Cherries, grapes and pineapples stimulate antioxidant activity, enzyme activity, and immune function. • Absolutely avoid alcohol, which can aggravate gout. • Decrease your protein intake. • A high intake of water and other fluids is important in the treatment of gout. Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses per day. • Gout therapy may include pressure point therapy, massage, acupressure and alternating ice and warm moist packs. References: Dr. Anthony Cickoke.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Amen to Carol's post. I turned a local lady suffering from gout on to enzyme therapy, and she is fine. Between cherry juice and enzymes, she has no need for the medicines that the MD assured her she would need for the rest of her life.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Acupuncture is excellent, especially with the addition of herbal formulas. You should also try alkalizing. Maybe try some goat milk. - " parag_m_g " <parag_m_g Tuesday, September 29, 2009 7:36 AM Gout > Guys, > Is there any Naturopathy/Alternative cure for Gout? > Paraag > > > > > > --- > > ********************************************* > Peacefulmind.com Sponsors Alternative Answers- > > HEALING NATURALLY- Learn preventative and curative measure to take for > many ailments at: > > http://www.peacefulmind.com/ailments.htm > __________ > > -To INVITE A FRIEND to our healing community, copy and paste this address > in an email to them: > > http://health./subs_invite > > _________ > To ADD A LINK, RESOURCE, OR WEBSITE to Alternative Answers please Go to: > > http://health./links > > ___________ > > Post message: > Subscribe: - > Un: - > List owner: -owner > _______ > Shortcut URL to this page: > http://health.!

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I first had gout over 40 years ago, and was put on a drug, and told that I would be on it forever. I do not like drugs, so researched gout. I found that cherries had something in them that solved the uric acid in the joints. I made cherry jam my favorite, and cherry pie my favorite, and made sure to have some of one or another once a week or more. No more gout. or I should say, very little, and when my big left toe starts to be at all painful, I start eating cherries. We keep some of those big frozen cherries in the freezer, and I start popping them frozen like a snack - goodbye any pain.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Cherries are difficult to get regularly in India. Is there any alternative fruit for Cherries?

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Why is enzyme therapy difficult where you live? Can you not buy encapsulated food-based enzymes? If not, you can order them through the mail. Carol www.bluegreensolutions.com , " parag_m_g " <parag_m_g wrote: > > Thanks all of you, for this valuable info.
