Maybe I should be more persistent with the Citricidal which I have in. Just noticed it says not to use undiluted!! Well maybe if I try to confine it to the toe nail roughened up with an emery board it may just work eventually!!

Two options in a diabetic - Eat less carbs - or do exercise immediately
after eating to use up the carbs just eaten.
My list of foods intentionally left out tomato onion broccoli and fruit
for example - as they are high sugar.
Actually no. A normal person does not have glucose rise after a meal.
The American Diabetes Society would like you to think so however:-))
I refer you to research on normal people presented by Dr Richard
Bernstein which shows consistently that normal people have a glucose
between 80 and 90 units (USa scale - divide by 18 for UK scale)
including right after eating. - It is also what I see in normal people
at a women's center where I volunteer and spot-check glucose for all for
free after lunch.
Namaste,

Don't worry I exercise every day but unfortunately it is before I eat my
evening meal!! No way could I do what I do after eating anything other than
a banana!! Tonight before my meal my blood sugar was 5.3(99) which is
considered "normal" here. Now, 4 hours after eating it is 6.4 (115) which is
considered fine for postprandial. Hopefully in the morning it will be back
down again!!
Interesting as I didn't know about broccoli which I try to eat everyday. But
then as I said I am doing great on a low GI diet + the Ayuvedic herb Salacia
O.
I have NEVER had readings that low!!! The only people I know who have
readings of 80 (4.4) are diabetics on medication. I remember having 1/2
small pizza once and 2 hours after my reading was 9.4(169) . That taught me
to stick to my meat/fish and veg and stay away from processed foods. It was
after this I found the GI diet. Despite not being fat I have lost 7lbs.
Amazing!!!
However I found this somewhere on the web:-
mmol/l mg/dl interpretation ------ ----- --------------
2.0 35 extremely low, danger of unconciousness 3.0 55
low, marginal insulin reaction 4.0 75 slightly low, first
symptoms of lethargy etc. 5.5 100 mecca 5 - 6 90-110
normal preprandial in nondiabetics 8.0 150 normal
postprandial in nondiabetics 10.0 180 maximum postprandial in
nondiabeticsObviously you wouldn't agree with it.

Shannon I am not sure how to answer your question, maybe you should write her and ask the question, I'm sure she could answer it for you. Information for you, the right pH will kill virus, fungus, and certain bacteria, but it will not happen overnight, change your pH, change the environment.

Researching Fungus Fungi
Thanks Jeff,
I haven't persisted long enough to find a way to contact her--and
probably won't take the time for that just now--but glancing thru some
of her other articles, she is definitely not a homeopath. (E.g.
articles on "anxiety" which advise that speak in very general terms,
advise that the best professionals can do is to "guess" at the nature
of the disease, and which (*thankfully*!!!) do not mention "homeopathy"
at all... The article you quoted seems to be her one foray into the
subject of homeopathy, and is a great example of the reason many
homeopaths become so annoyed over "the definition of homeopathy", and
the fact that, in common usage, there *isn't* one. Thus allowing
people who don't know homeopathy from a prozac pill to make silly
statements about "homeopathic" vinegar treatments for toe fungus, and
opine quite misleadingly about whether "homeopathic" treatments work.
Which I guess brings us back to, "Does a homeopathic treatment for
toenail fungus work?" Homeopathically the treatment would have to be
internal (Hahnemann was very big on not making external treatments for
local expressions of internal imbalance!!), and would have to be based
on "the case"--the effects on the toe(s), *as well as* the rest of the
case. The fact that we don't yet have anyone saying, "Oh yeah, I've
done that" is not encouraging...
End of rant...

Re: Researching Fungus Fungi
Very good it's a great product, I use it with a few other things it's a combination product already made up. My homeopathic counselor recommended it.

The main action of Thuja is on the skin and genitourinary organs, producing conditions that correspond with Hahnemann's sycotic dyscrasia, whose chief manifestation is the formation of wart-like excrescences upon mucous and cutaneous surfaces - fig-warts and condylomata. Has a specific antibacterial action, as in gonorrhea and vaccination. Sycotic pains, i.e., tearing in muscles and joints, worse at rest, better in dry weather, worse damp humid atmosphere; lameness. HYDROGENOID CONSTITUTIONS, whose blood is morbidly hydroscopic, so that damp air and water are inimical. Complaints from moonlight. RAPID EXHAUSTION AND EMACIATION. Left-sided and chilly medicine.

Re: Researching Fungus Fungi
Thuja is NOT a combination product although you may have been given it in a combination product. I would never use a combination product as you never know which one has done the work and also remedies are proved individually not in a combination which may well change everything!!!
