For me there's a bit of a sting due to the capsicum in the eyebright
formula.
Tolerable for me as it goes by rather quickly.
YMMV..

 Reduce the MSM. I just can't tolerate that much, it burns me half to 
death. I can tolerate a little bit, and just made up a batch with very 
little MSM and add more until it is just barely below where I would not 
be able to tolerate it. Unfortunately less MSM probably makes it less 
effective, but that is what I have to do to use it at all. It may 
possibly help to use the drops more often if you have to use less MSM.
  From years of reading of eye drops with MSM in here, tolerance 
varies, and I'm just not one of the ones who can take the pain. FWIW, I 
tried an eye drop with one of my rabbits that has half that much MSM 
(1/2 tsp in 1 ounce EIS) and he freaked and bit clear through my 
thumbnail. Then I tried it in my own eye, and understood why he went 
crazy--it caused him great pain. It doesn't hurt the eye, but if pain is 
too great, it is too great.
  The amount of DMSO in the mix didn't bother me at all once I reduced 
the MSM. But I did try straight DMSO ONE drop, in ONE eyethat was 
more than enough for me. I couldn't force myself to do the other eye.

Hi Mike,

Yearly ophthalmologist exams verify no deterioration. The Dr. seems
puzzled.

As far as the DMSO is concerned, I've lurked in Garnet's DMSO list
long enough to be aware that within reason, you can add it's benefits
to almost anything to increase effectiveness of your concoction.

I wouldn't hesitate to take it (DMSO) internally if I had a reason.
I have, just to taste it. Tastes bad enough to build character, so it
must be good for you...

Fairly highly diluted proves to be as effective as more concentrated.
High concentrated can be drying (strong affinity for water) as well as
de fatting.
I find with concentrated, that repeated applications to the skin
results in itchy irritation. Not harmful but uncomfortable. All this
can be avoided by diluting to say, 10-30%.
Your observation that 99% is marketed cut to 70% is because that 70%
has been found to be a comfortable  maximum strength dilution for use
on skin and more is not more effective.
Your mileage may vary...

On a tangential thought, the eye is said to be a major entry point for
cold and flu infections. Using this formula daily, with the properties
of almost all of it's ingredients, should be a great prophylactic
against these infections.
Of course the same is said of the ear, and hydrogen peroxide in the
ear has proven to me, to work to banish colds and flu! But that's
another thread...

The proportional amounts of anything in the mix is variable to the
experimenters desires. Personally, I may increase the Christophers
formula as my tolerance to the slight stinging increases (it passes
within seconds)

The tsp MSM in 1 oz is pretty near a saturated solution.
Yes that's what was effective for floaters by itself. Increase the
permeability of the eye to let the junk drain was the thinking.

I'm theorizing that the msm and dmso could soften the eyeball (improve
flexibility) to the point that close up reading that necessitates
bifocals could be relieved.
It's all seat of the pants. Take what you wish.

Dear Chuck,

Okay, so we're looking like this:

1 oz CS
1 tsp MSM powder
15 drops Dr. Christopher's
Eyebright Formula Tincture
A couple dropperfulls of 99% DMSO

So if I've got you right, the DMSO you are adding a couple 
dropperfulls of is 99%. So 2-3 milliliters of 99% pure, undiluted DMSO 
in an ounce of fluid, about 28 milliliters, would be only about 10% 
DMSO, by volume, which I certainly would think is reasonable.

Around here the health food store sells the stuff in 70% and, I think, 
about 50% dilutions. It's a bit misleading, though, because they also 
state the purity in big letters at 99%, but that's before they dilute 
it with the water. So it's 99% DMSO, 70% in water!! 

 Let me say that msm and cs mix would take care of MY HUGE FLOATERS by
 itself. The other stuff was just inspired planning for eye health. 

Was that what you started out with?

 Yeah up to 30% dmso would be good. More is not better with dmso, nor
 necessary. It won't hurt, but dmso can be drying at higher
 concentrations (irritating)at least it is on skin. 

If you're saying you think it could be as much as 30% without problem, 
I don't know that it's an issue. I don't think I'm worried about 10% 
concentration of DMSO being too little!

 I use the formula once a day, sometimes twice if I remember. 
 I'd do more if I had a reason.
 I make this up about twice a year.
 
 Hmmm... if you market this, I want a cut!

No plans to market, Chuck! I just want to improve our eye health here, 
*before* we end up with serious problems.

Hello Pat...
Please don't take this as anything but a personal experience...what worked 
for me may not for others...vice versa.

However...a while back..at an annual Eye Exam...I was told that I seemed to 
have the begining of cataracts.

I did some research and found that eye drops could cause the problem.
I showed the information to my primary care doc and she said the info looked 
plausible.

So I stopped the Visine and used only my own (Silver Puppy) C.S. spray..still 
do.
Next exam  no sign of Cataracts.

Also...on my last visit...just a little while ago...The Eye Doc. mentioned 
that my eyes were amazingly clean.
I asked what did that mean...she replied that I would be surprised at how 
much bacteria many people have in their eyes.
I told her about my using the C.S. and she seemed o.k. with it.
Just thought I would mention this...V.

said there is nothing that really helps either one.  He said he'll see someone 
with new floaters, then again in three weeks.  The patient says they've gotten 
better, but when he looks, they're exactly the same.  The brain adjusts and 
overlooks them.  

Of course, no one knows everything and if something does no harm, it's worth 
a try.

BTW, I'm sure my vet had never heard of colloidal silver.  I asked him if he 
knew about it and he looked blank and uninterested, so I just said it kills

Yes that's what was effective for floaters by itself. Increase the
permeability of the eye to let the junk drain was the thinking.

I'm theorizing that the msm and dmso could soften the eyeball (improve
flexibility) to the point that close up reading that necessitates
bifocals could be relieved.
It's all seat of the pants. Take what you wish.

Dear Chuck,

Thanks for the reply!

Okay, so we're looking like this:

1 oz CS
1 tsp MSM powder
15 drops Dr. Christopher's
Eyebright Formula Tincture
A couple dropperfulls of 99% DMSO

So if I've got you right, the DMSO you are adding a couple 
dropperfulls of is 99%. So 2-3 milliliters of 99% pure, undiluted DMSO 
in an ounce of fluid, about 28 milliliters, would be only about 10% 
DMSO, by volume, which I certainly would think is reasonable.

Around here the health food store sells the stuff in 70% and, I think, 
about 50% dilutions. It's a bit misleading, though, because they also 
state the purity in big letters at 99%, but that's before they dilute 
it with the water. So it's 99% DMSO, 70% in water!! 

 Let me say that msm and cs mix would take care of MY HUGE FLOATERS by
 itself. The other stuff was just inspired planning for eye health. 

Was that what you started out with?

 Yeah up to 30% dmso would be good. More is not better with dmso, nor
 necessary. It won't hurt, but dmso can be drying at higher
 concentrations (irritating)at least it is on skin. 

If you're saying you think it could be as much as 30% without problem, 
I don't know that it's an issue. I don't think I'm worried about 10% 
concentration of DMSO being too little!

 I use the formula once a day, sometimes twice if I remember. 
 I'd do more if I had a reason.
 I make this up about twice a year.
 
 Hmmm... if you market this, I want a cut!

No plans to market, Chuck! I just want to improve our eye health here, 
*before* we end up with serious problems.

Today I saw my opthalmologist because of the new large floater.  The retina is 
ok, but he wants to recheck in 3 weeks.  I told him I've been reading about 
things to help get rid of floaters and also a way to lessen cataracts.  He said 
there is nothing that really helps either one.  He said he'll see someone with 
new floaters, then again in three weeks.  The patient says they've gotten 
better, but when he looks, they're exactly the same.  The brain adjusts and 
overlooks them.  

Of course, no one knows everything and if something does no harm, it's worth a 
try.

BTW, I'm sure my vet had never heard of colloidal silver.  I asked him if he 
knew about it and he looked blank and uninterested, so I just said it kills 
germs and I spray my dog's snout with it after she's been nosing around in all 
the poop at public places.  He said that's good, but didn't care to know more.  
I think sometimes highly educated people think there is nothing to be learned 
from their average client.

Thank you Chuck for this - I myself am dealing with floaters as well as a
cataract in the right eye which I nearly had operated on two weeks ago
until I got all of the input from the list so decided to do some further
personal work before going that route - now I do not know if you were the
person who mentioned flax seed oil however who ever did let me say this -
thanks a million - I followed the directions and boy does this get the
gunk out of the eyes I am now applying the FSO every other night
as it is so good that the eyes balls are a little pink and the sunlight
effects them - I now find that this works wonders, after two weeks the
gunk is still flowing and I have an appointment with my eye doctor in
another two weeks time we will see what he has to say when he sees my
eyes - of course I have no intention of saying anything to him unless he
sees a change and if so then you will all hear about it that is for sure
Thanks to all who have contributed to this cause !
Let me take this opportunity of wishing all members of all lists the very
warmest of Christ masses that is in cheer not global warming heat !  
smileMay we all continue to share and grow from strength to strength
over the coming years and may 2007 be a wonderful one for us all
Thanks again for all the input from everyone over this past year you are
all angels as far as this list is concerned - what happens outside of
this I am not and have no wish to be any wiser :)   may God Bless you
All.
Warmest regards

Curcumin Treating eye disorders

Curcumin is apparently more than your typical kitchen spice. 
It's the substance that gives ginger its yellowish colour, and it has been 
implicated 
in the treatment of certain eye diseases and conditions.
One of those is known as chronic anterior UVEITIS (CAU), an inflammatory 
condition of the vascular layer of the eye, particularly the area comprising 
the 
iris. In one small study, Curcumin was given orally to 32 chronic anterior 
uveitis 
patients who were divided into two groups.
The first group received Curcumin alone, whereas the second group received a 
combination of Curcumin and antitubercular treatment. 
Amazingly, all of the patients treated with Curcumin alone improved, compared 
to a response rate of 86% among those receiving the combination therapy. 
The researchers concluded that Curcumin was just as effective as 
corticosteroid therapy, the only available standard treatment for chronic 
anterior uveitis 
at present, adding that the lack of side effects with Curcumin is its 
greatest advantage compared with corticosteroids.

Similar research using rats and rabbits found that Curcumin effectively 
inhibited chemically induced cataract formation, even at very low dietary 
levels.
The same study also found, for the first time, that this type of 
induced cataract may be accompanied by apoptosis of epithelial cells in the 
eye and that Curcumin may lessen the apoptotic effect.
In one of the earliest studies examining Curcumin as a potential cataract 
therapy, 
researchers fed two groups of rats, diets that included corn oil, or a 
combination of Curcumin and corn oil for 14 days
Afterward, their lenses were removed and examined for the presence of lipid 
peroxidation. 
The scientists discovered that the lenses from Curcumin-treated rats were 
much 
more resistant to. induced opacification than were lenses from control 
animals.

cataract formation in rat lenses. Am J Clin Nutr 1996 Nov;64 (5):761-6.

uveitis. Phytother Res 1999 Jun;13(4):318-22.

Hi V,

You've probably seen other posts by now that tell you that Circumin is one 
of the ingredients found in the spice called Turmeric. Many supplement 
manufacturers have extracted the pure circumin and encapsulated it for those 
wishing a stronger dose. Since I can't stand the taste of turmeric, that's 
how I take my circumin. Vitamin Research Products is one of many who produce 
these capsules.




Anyway, learning from Chuck,

stir in the MSM,***(do you think this would work without the MSM?) let it

I use Dr John Christopher's formula, now made by Nature's Way and it is an 
herbal blend called Eyebright. The eyebright herb is the dominant one in the 
formula.
The MSM is a good carrier for all the other ingredients, seems to 
potentiate the formula a bit.




Never thought about using it regularly for the floater/s I now have since
the vitreous in my right eye starting detaching last year. That was a fun
day that started with flashing lights and ended with the fat black 
floater;

that's when I ended up in the ER and then an eye Dr's office.


 Had the exact same experience...did this really clear up the 
floaters???

  Do you still have the lights ?


There is still occasional evidence of the floater, very small. I think it 
has parked itself in the outer corner of the eye, only to show up when I 
look at strong light or move my head in some way.
The lights, thank God, have not shown up again. If they do, I'll have a 
genuine panic attack!


I make sure to take Vit C every day, accompanied by a Bilberry capsule, and 
also pycnogenol, as that is said to be helpful with detaching eye parts.
I should probably add lutein, but have not gotten around to it. There are 
good eye supplements on the market that have that, along with other 
ingredients all in one capsule. One, called Occudyne, springs to mind.


HTH,
Sharon/starshar

 Not a real recipe, Peter.
 Using CS as the liquid, I dissolve a tsp of MSM in about an ounce of CS
 and add about 15 drops of the tincture. Put it in one of those 1 oz
 dropper containers that artificial tears come in. You pry the top off.
 Google for online Dr Christopher formulas or visit your health food

 The number of drops depends on how lucky the punk feels today (my
 first batch was 8 drops of the good Dr's mix).
 
 BTW, my floaters were like heavy cargo nets used in shipping. I feared

Re: CSRE: floaters in the eyes

2006-12-16 Thread Pat
Two years ago I got tripped by my dog and fell on my face on the tile kitchen 
floor.  It tore the retina in one eye and the bleeding caused floaters.  The 
doctor tacked the retina back in place with laser surgery (no big deal, right 
then in the office).  The doctor said normally those floaters would be gone 
within a few months, but I still have them.  He said they can be removed 
surgically, and I said I can live with them and he said that was a wise choice. 
 

Yesterday in my other eye, I noticed a new streak of grey floating around.  I'd 
seen some flashes of light the night before.  I just called the doctor, and he 
said the flashes mean the retina is being tickled and that as the vitreous 
humor is moving away from the retina, it could cause a tear.  He said I should 
be seen this week.  Also, if a black curtain covers part of the vision, to be 
seen immediately.  So, if you ever see flashes of light, call the doctor right 
away (unless you know they're caused by a migraine).  

I read this on the web:

What Causes Eye Floaters and Spots?



For most people, floaters occur as they grow older. The vitreous humor 
thickens and clumps as we age, and floaters result from the clumped vitreous 
gel. 
Sometimes pregnant women see spots caused by little bits of protein trapped 
within the eye. Eye injury or breakdown of the vitreous humor may 
also cause spots and floaters.

When people reach middle age, the vitreous gel may start to thicken 
or shrink, forming clumps or strands inside the eye. The vitreous gel pulls 
away from the back wall of the eye, causing a posterior vitreous detachment. 
It is a common cause of floaters, and it is more common for people who:


are nearsighted;have undergone cataract operations;have had YAG laser surgery 
of the eye;have had inflammation inside the eye.










Treatment for Spots and Floaters



Most spots and eye floaters are merely annoying but harmless 
when they temporarily enter the field of vision, and many fade over time. 
People sometimes are interested in surgery to remove floaters, but doctors 
are willing to perform such surgery only in rare instances.

If you suddenly see new floaters, or eye floaters accompanied by 
flashes of light or peripheral vision loss, it could indicate serious 
conditions 
such as diabetic retinopathy; vascular abnormalities such as retinal 
hemorrhages 
or carotid artery disease, or the beginning of a retinal detachment. 
The retina can tear if the shrinking vitreous gel pulls away from the wall of 
the eye. 
This sometimes causes a small amount of bleeding in the eye that may appear as 
new floaters. You should see your eye doctor 
immediately.

2006-12-16 Thread Gertrude

Hi Ruth,
The floaters moves aroundI was 2 times to the eye doctor
I don' t like the moving spots on my eye,but I can live with them...hope no 
more will come.


I am always afraid,my grandmother was blind...because of diabetesbut I 
have no diabetes at all.
Everything is very strange to me,my kidney doctor said something was wrong 
with my kidneys...now another doctor ,this year, said ..you can live as well 
with only 1/3 of your kidneys,don't worry.(be happy)
That was after I took a lot of silverwater some time agomaybe it cured 
everything...I feel better as last year.

Hi, Trudy, A black spot that always stays there makes me think of an eye 
problem called macular degeneration.  Does the spot move around. or does 
it stay in exactly the same place all the time?  If it stays in the same 
place and doesn't move around, you need to see your eye doctor right away!

Hello Mike I wish I could find a doctor or someone else who take out my 
floaters.


My sister in law had the same and is operated in an academical hospital 
and became blind at one eyemaybe a mistake...so my eye specialist said 
nothing to do on my floaters.


The last spot I 've got when my husband was on the hospital for an instant 
heart attacksomething went wrong in my eye...and it always stayed 
there...a black spot.


I will ask  the doctor if there is a possibillity...you hear it after 19 
of december.


Meanwhile I always take a little CS and going stronger with the 
wonderwater


I wish I could tell it better in English...I am glad you wrote back and I 
can ask my homeopatic doctor next week ,he is also an acupuncture 
doctor...not with needles but with

electric tools...will that be a good idea?

Thanks for answering my question,
Trudy

I've come a *very* long way in the last decade, and one of the things
I've come to accept is that there are some unlikely sounding things
that turn out to be true in alternative medicine.

I don't know specifically about accupuncture and various eye problems,
like floaters, but I'm a *LOT* less willing to use the word
impossible now than a few years ago. smile


 I have floaters too and the doctor could not take them away.


There are many folks here and in other alternative health forums I've
visted who've proved the doctors wrong many times. We don't ignore
them, but we evaluate what they say on an even basis with what we learn
from our own work and that of other people we come to trust.

We've learned that doctors are forced to ignore many worthwhile ideas,
leaving it up to us to research and evaluate them for ourselves.

There have been several suggestions offered earlier in this thread that
sound promising. When I hear a success story from somebody like Chuck,
who's been in the group for years, who's *not* trying to sell anything,
and has given other reliable information in the past, I'm going to
listen very carefully.

Each of us have to define our personal standards of what to believe.
When I hear an idea from people I know who don't have a commercial
interest, if it is reasonably easy/cheap/simple to test, and my
experience or research makes me reasonably confident that it's safe...
I will try new things, even when they seem a little unlikely by
conventional standards.

That's what works for me. shrug

Be well,

Subject: Re: CSRE: floaters in the eyes


Two years ago I got tripped by my dog and fell on my face on the tile 
kitchen floor.  It tore the retina in one eye and the bleeding caused 
floaters.  The doctor tacked the retina back in place with laser surgery 
(no big deal, right then in the office).  The doctor said normally those 
floaters would be gone within a few months, but I still have them.  He 
said they can be removed surgically, and I said I can live with them and 
he said that was a wise choice.


Yesterday in my other eye, I noticed a new streak of grey floating around. 
I'd seen some flashes of light the night before.  I just called the 
doctor, and he said the flashes mean the retina is being tickled and that 
as the vitreous humor is moving away from the retina, it could cause a 
tear.  He said I should be seen this week.  Also, if a black curtain 
covers part of the vision, to be seen immediately.  So, if you ever see 
flashes of light, call the doctor right away (unless you know they're 
caused by a migraine).


I read this on the web:

What Causes Eye Floaters and Spots?



For most people, floaters occur as they grow older. The vitreous humor
thickens and clumps as we age, and floaters result from the clumped 
vitreous gel.
Sometimes pregnant women see spots caused by little bits of protein 
trapped

within the eye. Eye injury or breakdown of the vitreous humor may
also cause spots and floaters.

When people reach middle age, the vitreous gel may start to thicken
or shrink, forming clumps or strands inside the eye. The vitreous gel 
pulls
away from the back wall of the eye, causing a posterior vitreous 
detachment.

It is a common cause of floaters, and it is more common for people who:


are nearsighted;have undergone cataract operations;have had YAG laser 
surgery of the eye;have had inflammation inside the eye.











Treatment for Spots and Floaters



Most spots and eye floaters are merely annoying but harmless
when they temporarily enter the field of vision, and many fade over time.
People sometimes are interested in surgery to remove floaters, but doctors
are willing to perform such surgery only in rare instances.

If you suddenly see new floaters, or eye floaters accompanied by
flashes of light or peripheral vision loss, it could indicate serious 
conditions
such as diabetic retinopathy; vascular abnormalities such as retinal 
hemorrhages

or carotid artery disease, or the beginning of a retinal detachment.
The retina can tear if the shrinking vitreous gel pulls away from the wall 
of the eye.
This sometimes causes a small amount of bleeding in the eye that may 
appear as

new floaters. You should see your eye doctor
immediately.

Okay, Chuck! It's getting *close* to being a recipe! grin

1 oz CS
1 tsp MSM powder
15 drops Dr. Christopher's Eyebright Formula Tincture
A couple dropperfulls of DMSO

What concentration of DMSO is it you're adding dropperfuls of? 99%? 
30%? Would you say it's about 2 or 3 ml's in your 2 droppers full?

About how many times per day did/do you use them?

I realize you're just going by the seat of the pants, but it'd be nice 
to know we're reasonably close.

Thank you much!

Mike D.

 
 That's correct Mike.
 
 I added 15 drops to my own concoction of MSM dissolved in CS.
 
 I failed to mention that I also used a couple of dropperfulls of DMSO to
 the final ounce.
 
 My thinking was MSM to increase the permeabilty of the membrane so the
 junk can drain. CS to keep everything sterile and long shelf life.
 DMSO to get the formula INTO the organ. Christophers formula for all the
 eye support that it offers.
 
 I've used this for several years now, along with the meds my
 opthamologist Rx'ed for the glaucoma that I was originally Dx'd with. (I
 only use 1/2 rhe Rx.) He appears to be chagrined that I haven't
 deteriorated since I started with my own drops too. course I didn't
 tell him about my concoction, as he demonstrated nonreceptivity to
 alternate therapies. He never offered any solution to the floaters
 complaint. I had to take care of THAT on my own!
 
 Works for me!

Eh...

regimen sigh
 What concentration of DMSO is it
 you're adding dropperfuls of? 99%?

Yeah!

 30%? Would you say it's about 2 or 3
 ml's in your 2 droppers full?

Let me say that msm and cs mix would take care of MY HUGE FLOATERS by
itself.
The other stuff was just inspired planning for eye health.

Yeah up to 30% dmso would be good.
 More is not better with dmso, nor necessary. It won't hurt, but dmso
can be drying at higher concentrations (irritating)at least it is on
skin.

I use the formula once a day, sometimes twice if I remember. 
I'd do more if I had a reason.
I make this up about twice a year.

Hmmm... if you market this, I want a cut!

And here's some info I saved to a file:

Curcumin Treating eye disorders

Curcumin is apparently more than your typical kitchen spice. It's the 
substance that gives ginger its yellowish colour, and it has been implicated 
in the treatment of certain eye diseases and conditions. One of those is 
known as chronic anterior UVEITIS (CAU), an inflammatory condition of the 
vascular layer of the eye, particularly the area comprising the iris. In one 
small study, Curcumin was given orally to 32 chronic anterior uveitis 
patients who were divided into two groups. The first group received Curcumin 
alone, whereas the second group received a combination of Curcumin and 
antitubercular treatment. Amazingly, all of the patients treated with 
Curcumin alone improved, compared to a response rate of 86% among those 
receiving the combination therapy. The researchers concluded that Curcumin 
was just as effective as corticosteroid therapy, the only available standard 
treatment for chronic anterior uveitis at present, adding that the lack of 
side effects with Curcumin is its greatest advantage compared with 
corticosteroids.


Similar research using rats and rabbits found that Curcumin effectively 
inhibited chemically induced cataract formation, even at very low dietary 
levels. The same study also found, for the first time, that this type of 
induced cataract may be accompanied by apoptosis of epithelial cells in the 
eye and that Curcumin may lessen the apoptotic effect. In one of the 
earliest studies examining Curcumin as a potential cataract therapy, 
researchers fed two groups of rats, diets that included corn oil, or a 
combination of Curcumin and corn oil for 14 days. Afterward, their lenses 
were removed and examined for the presence of lipid peroxidation. The 
scientists discovered that the lenses from Curcumin-treated rats were much 
more resistant to. induced opacification than were lenses from control 
animals.


Awasthi S et al. Curcumin protects against 4-hydroxy-2-trans-nonenal-induced 
cataract formation in rat lenses. Am J Clin Nutr 1996 Nov;64 (5):761-6.
Lal B et al. Efficacy of curcumin in the management of chronic anterior 
uveitis. Phytother Res 1999 Jun;13(4):318-22.

Vigilus,
I do appreciate your information to my questions, and I don't doubt that
herbal treatment has good results. After all, alternative therapy is
concerned with natural substances instead of man-made ones. I have
difficulty seeing how acupuncture would affect floaters which, to my
understanding, are detached pieces of some inner part of the eye.



VMANN:  activation of qi.




While the
electrochemical activity of herbal substances may cause these loose flaps 
to

dissolve, I cannot see how acupuncture would result in the same thing, but
that is obviously my problem, since I do not care to get involved in the
whole philosophy of ying versus yang. But thanks again for your 
information.

I have no idea what my blood is like, except that it is type O. I also know
that I have hypertension because I am not as active as I need to be. Nothing
seems to ail me except trying to read through floaters. If they can be
eliminated through flax seed oil, or though the other concoctions that have
been mentioned here, I would like to look into that, particularly flax seed
oil that is absolutely harmless, as well as CS. 

Chinese medicine and philosophy are outside the scope of my interests, at

So how does TCM eliminate floaters from the eyes, without acupuncture?

Hi Peter,

Tonite, with a few beers under the belt, I cannot help but reply to your
post in detail, as I do understand what it is like, at this stage of life,
which is code for,  I am old and have no time to waste learning about new
things.

Just tell me what will fix these damm floaters in my eyes.

You want a concoction to fix the floaters. But only harmless ones.

And Chinese medicine or philosophy don't interest you, and we are all going
to die anyway. If you were joking I could accept that, but i didn't see any
smileys there.

If you do realize, if it's true, that you have hypertension cause you are
not as active as you should be, then what is your question?

You are dying,  We all are.

Only you can control how fast that is happening.

Continue seeking, maybe that will help.

probably gonna regret this post.

 Ross

 I have no idea what my blood is like, except that it is type O. I also
know
 that I have hypertension because I am not as active as I need to be.
Nothing
 seems to ail me except trying to read through floaters. If they can be
 eliminated through flax seed oil, or though the other concoctions that
have
 been mentioned here, I would like to look into that, particularly flax
seed
 oil that is absolutely harmless, as well as CS.

 Chinese medicine and philosophy are outside the scope of my interests, at
 this stage of my life. After all , we are all going to leave this body
 behind, sooner or later.
 But thanks for the information thus far.

 Peter

2006-12-14 Thread Peter M. Stellas
Ross,

I certainly can thank you for a response, even though the beer under your
belt seems to have rendered it worthless, in terms of constructive
suggestion. Getting old does not mean giving up, nor does lack of interest
in Chinese medicine, (inter-related with Chinese philosophy) mean lack of
interest in learning new things. There are some on various websites who
advocate recycling their own urine as a therapeutic means, and I hope they
enjoy it and benefit from it. But I don't have to espouse that to be a well
balanced individual.

Lack of exercise is largely due to a full time job, a house remodel effort,
and an attempt to start a new business. Lack of interest in someone's pet
philosophical bent is not a lack of interest for life or knowledge, just a
lack of conforming to the latest craze that happens to be sweeping America.
There may be a lot of good to it, and a lot of old world superstition as
well. If a simple and tried method is available, which some have suggested
here, then it is sufficient for the need at hand without my having to adopt
a whole knew philosophy, and this is true at any and every age. I hope that
you don't limit your intellectual input only to occasions when you have had
a few beers under your belt. I would also like to hear the unaffected you 
speaking.

Peter

Vigilus,

I do appreciate your information to my questions, and I don't doubt that
herbal treatment has good results. After all, alternative therapy is
concerned with natural substances instead of man-made ones. I have
difficulty seeing how acupuncture would affect floaters which, to my
understanding, are detached pieces of some inner part of the eye. While the
electrochemical activity of herbal substances may cause these loose flaps to
dissolve, I cannot see how acupuncture would result in the same thing, but
that is obviously my problem, since I do not care to get involved in the
whole philosophy of ying versus yang. But thanks again for your information.

Peter

CSRE: floaters in the eyes

2006-12-13 Thread Peter M. Stellas
Chuck,

Your post caught my interest because I am also bothered by heavy floaters.
Please give me a detailed description of the eye formula you have used,
meaning, the exact proportions of the mixture and where you get Dr.
Christopher's eye drops.

I currently uses eyedrops using Dr Christophers eyedrop tincture that
contains eyebright, billberry, etc. and includes Cayenne also.

I created my own formula by using CS ,MSM, and 15 drops of
Christopher's extract in an ounce container.

My problem was heavy floaters. Not a problem anymore.

Stings a little, no big deal.

Re: CSRE: floaters in the eyes

2006-12-13 Thread cking001
Not a real recipe, Peter.
Using CS as the liquid, I dissolve a tsp of MSM in about an ounce of
CS and add about 15 drops of the tincture.
Put it in one of those 1 oz dropper containers that artificial tears
come in. You pry the top off.
Google for online Dr Christopher formulas or visit your health food
store.

The number of drops depends on how lucky the punk feels today (my
first batch was 8 drops of the good Dr's mix).

BTW, my floaters were like heavy cargo nets used in shipping. I feared
they were going to take over!
Been 4 or 5 years now and all is well.

Chuck
I have a very rare video of houdini getting locked out of his car.

 I can't say that I have had any more vexation or anger than the next
person, nor have I had liver problems. All in all, I have been very healthy
and will be 70 years old in April, although most people don't put me past
50. So how does that relate to floaters?

One more thing. I am not looking for acupuncturists or Ayurvedic medicine,
just a solution for the floaters in my eyes. One fellow claims that he has
found it. That is all I want.

Thanks for that reply, Chuck. The formula does not contain any ingredients
that I would fear putting in my eyes, and if you got good results it is
worth a try.
