How does EDTA sublingual treatment differ from the Activated Charcoal? I've done a few EDTA IV. Thanks!

EDTA is different from charcoal because EDTA removes mostly calcium deposits whereas charcoal removes various hard and soft toxins. Plus, charcoal is organic and EDTA is not (made from oxides).

Did you get your reptilian sources from David Icke material?

No, not at all. We have our own sources (I list them in the Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual under "Human Origins" category).

On WebMD there is information stating that high fiber foods such as raw fruits, and vegetables can irritate or flare up Crohn's disease. But, your article on Chron's disease says to switch to a vegan diet after detoxing. Why would raw fruits and vegetables flare up Chron's disease? Why do your articles suggest to eat raw fruits and veggies when people say it can irritate the disease?

We don't subscribe to that. We do our own homework at Dherbs.com. There is no confusion at Dherbs because we use logic, reason, common sense, intuition, wisdom, etc. So we are not confused in regards to food and health.

I have recently come into consciousness about my health, origins, spirituality, etc. I am an avid reader of your site, and I am preparing to purchase your Full Body Cleanse. But, PLEASE TELL ME IF THIS IS TRUE: That we (as people) cannot buy any herbs, nutrients, without the prescription of a doctor (Codex)? I've been reading many articles, but due to brain overload it's very hard for me to comprehend. Does this mean there will be no more Dherbs.com, or health food stores selling herbs? Also, if you happen to write an article on this can you please let me know about an "urban legend" that there was a "world" meeting among leaders, and Oprah was the only black woman in attendance, and that legislation like Codex was brought into the forefront to decrease the Earth's population. After reading some articles, I could see a connection with this "urban legend", when one stated that Codex could possibly kill 3 billion people. I know you have mentioned it briefly in a Q&A on your site as well as an article on Hybrid Foods, but I am seeking your wisdom and commentary due to your ability to explain in layman's terms. I hope you can answer my questions as myself and many others look to your site for Overstanding.

Not true! Don't waste your time worrying about Codex A. Think positive, Beloved! The urban legend is laughable. Many people just like to think negative, so they create negativity in their life. That has nothing to do with Codex A, but their own thinking! You can relax, Beloved! Read "Being Positive Is A Choice", "The Power of a Positive Attitude for Health".

My child's father has been diagnosed with Scleroderma. He has been working for Northwest Airlines for several years, and he was never a smoker. Yet, the doctors say this is what may have caused the illness. I am convinced that inhaling jet fuel fumes for many years is the culprit. What can he begin to take to heal from this disease? He was told there is no known cure, and he has not decided to go on any type of medication that they have for his coughing and fatigue. Is there any advice for this condition? What can we read? I did not find an article on this condition on this website.

Because the disease affects his lungs, you guys should read "Respiratory Problems" article. I highly recommend he performs the Respiratory Cleanse and Regimen. If his work schedule is too drastic to perform this, he should take a daily regimen of Mucus Formula, Lungs & Respiratory formula, and Electric Greens Combos Formula (3 capsules of each formula every 2-3 hours a part). Start 9 a.m. Mucus Formula, 12 p.m. Lungs & Respiratory, 3 p.m. Electric Greens, etc. And because he works in a polluted environment (jet fuel fumes), have him start taking Carbon Activated Charcoal at least twice a week. Which work miracles, and pulls out all of those toxins he's inhaling. There's much help for him. He needs to act fast though. We also have an article entitled "Activated Charcoal" in our articles section.

What is the difference between the Iodine Phosphate Formula and Thyroid Aid formula?

Iodine Phosphate is derived of 100% seaweed, and is a concentrated source of dietary Iodine. Thyroid Aid formula also contains sea weeds but also contains a few land-based plants, i.e. White Oak Bark and Black walnut Hulls. Iodine Phosphate formula provides chiefly iodine whereas Thyroid Aid formula also provides iodine but also has herbs that have an affinity for the Thyroid Gland. Iodine Phosphate is more "nutritional" in nature and Thyroid Aid formula is more "therapeutic" in nature. This is the different between the two formulas.

I was reading an article from this herbalist valeriesaxion.com, she talked about this tree that cures cancer. The name of this tree is called Graviola, other name Sour Sop tree. What your opinion on this?

Soursop is a very power plant (herb). I highly recommend it.

I am currently undergoing testing for sarcoidosis and found your site. I am already mostly vegan, but I read in your article that complex carbs should be greatly reduced or eliminated. I was just wondering what that might include, rice and oats? Should I be eating only fruits, veggies, beans and nuts?

That would include rice (only eat a little brown or wild rice), potatoes, yams, etc. Yes, eat more fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc.

Can you give your recommendation of Dherbs products to utilize in lew of giving a child dangerous vaccinations, specially the Swine flu vaccine?

I have a male relative and his stomach is swollen, he looks as if he is 9 months pregnant. The doctor has no explanation to why his stomach is swelling. He has lost so much weight and does not have much of an appetite. It is heart breaking to see him in that condition. Do you have any recommendations for this type of problem?

Have this person QUICKLY perform the Full Body Cleanse, and after detoxing consider changing his diet (see Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual). There is much help for this person.

Is it okay to take vitamin b-17 during pregnancy? I heard that it can prevent cancer and wanted to start taking it. I am currently 12 weeks along.

Yes, organic Vitamin B-17 is great to talk during pregnancy!

I'm trying to make bentonite clay, psyllium husk and water taste better if possible?

You ain't gonna get much help unless you add in some maple syrup, or agave nectar. You should discipline yourself to tolerate the taste though!

Woke up today and felt a lump under my skin in my pubic hair area, right above the shaft of penis. Of course this made me quickly call doctor. I was wondering if I should just detox and see what happens? I have a feeling that doc will only refer me to some other specialist or so-called.

It's always your choice, Beloved. Listen to your inner voice! In the meantime you may want to read some of our articles on Men’s Health.

What is the best healing remedy for hangovers? Could it be the No Alcohol Formula?

The best remedy for a hangover is not to get one! But, if you can't help it, then simply take 3 capsules of No Alcohol Formula 4-5 times per day.

My six year old was just seen by the ENT today. I was told that his hearing loss is getting worse and that he needs tubes to be put in his ears. He has also had several cases of strep throat, so the ENT is wanting to remove his tonsils as well. He is scheduling the surgery for three weeks away, and I was just wondering if there is an alternative to have the surgeries? Please write me back and let me know your feelings on the matter! I'm concerned about him being put under. I really don't want it to be done, unless it's absolutely necessary. Thank you!

I'm never pro surgery until everything natural has been done! First, experiment with an improved diet. Read our "Ear Problems" article for starters. Make sure to get a few ear coning sessions done.
