chemo nerve internal burns ?

[mary hughes]

Are you asking what it is or why I want to use it?
Not a question I was expecting.
It's pure silica in a colloid.
I have chosen this in preference to the Solgar vegetal silica as that comes from a vegetable base....and because Hubner sell high quality supplements.
As a supplement it is absorbed directly through the gut wall and does not need the be broken down by the digestion and so is more directly available for regrowth of cell structure in any part of the body that needs it.
Every cell in the body has silica in it, but as we have a daily requirement as we cannot store it...any excess being secreted through the urine, it can assist in the new cell growth when the body is either not receiving enough from the diet or there is an additional need for healing or re-mineralisation.
Also as digestion often deteriorates through ageing, there can be problems with the uptake of minerals, and as silica appears to be the bond in cell structure, and even has the ability to be turned into calcium should the body not be getting an adequate supply, it can be a major assistance in healing everything from bone damage to brain/nerve cells.

Sorry that last link is so long.

I am wanting to use it on my 12 year old dog, who has become slow to heal and is perhaps starting to show slight signs of confusion.
He is having vermicullite 6x and Baryta carb 6c.
He is raw fed (no veg matter he is a carnivore) and was over vacc'd when I got him at 9 months old...this was cleared and healed homeopathically, and apart from a few sprains has been in full health for the rest of the time.
I hope you can pick something out of that to help me.

I am hoping to assist in cartilege production and to halt repair possible signs of deteriorating brain power.
The lists I belong to don't seem to know what dose it correct and there is no animal nutritionists to ask in the UK.
I was thinking of being real cheeky and contacting Patrick Holford.

One thing that strikes me Mary is as he is slow to heal, may be there's a slowing down of his energy levels. If that's the case, you may find feeding raw not the best method in this instance. The energy levels of raw is too high for him in his condition. Slightly cooking meat might be better for him. Once you've found the right dosage to give and he starts healing, then he can resume his raw diet.

I think you're right about that Christine...there are small changes that I've made to his diet which I rotate around day by day...I have reduced the muscle meats and replaced that portion, in alternation with, oily fish, organic live yoghurt with raw honey, organic full fat cottage cheese, and organic eggs(sometimes raw, sometimes scrambled lightly with butter)....he has 1000mg glucosamine daily and cold-water fish body oil every other day along with kelp(for the thyroid)

If you look at him, all you would see is a bit of a limp when he starts to trot, but he cannot run far without pulling up in discomfort.
Stools are great, urine good (and still pees high), coat glossy and sweet smelling,skin soft and clear,ears and eyes clean and fresh, and boundless energy for play and fuss...as I suspect he's simply becoming less efficient with age, I want to see if I can help him hold back the years a little.

I have never supplemented before...a healthy and young dog should be able to get everything he needs from his food, and as he came from rescue with dietary and health issues, I may be reaping the reward for damage done in his early development. He was vaccd by rescue at the age of 9 moonths...again...even though he came with his stamped vet records...from a vet local to the rescue...and known by them...they gave him the double anyway!
This is also part of the problem I fear.

i was asking a) to find out about something new, and
b) more specifically, with my cat in mind. i have
written before about our trials and tribulations in her
health issues. most recently are the long-term results
of a spinal concussion from a hard fall. there seems
to be some nerve damage resulting in convulsions and,
most recently, problems with elimination due to some
damage to the lower part of her body from the ongoing
convulsions with severe chorea of the lower limbs.
the Hubner product sounded interesting to follow up on.
thanks

Hi Mary,

Thank you for your answer. I am not up on nutrition. I'll get there eventually. I am very resistant to fads.
I personally am taking bran, and you provided me with one more reason why. Many people would not like a bran tea. Too slimmy. So, I understand your supplementation. I would think a dog would have no trouble with bran. Don't want to experiment with diarrhea. Understandable.
This is one thing that I have always be resistant to in taking supplements. Knowing how much you as an individual needs seems important, but experimentation is never emphasized in the taking of supplements. Wonder why. Obviously individuals differ.
Blessings,
Ellen

Hi Tanya

Your cat’s case made me immediately think of Cuprum met – maybe low dose 6C – known to be of use after blows to the spine or head that lead to convulsions – and has the chorea as well.

just read a bit of murphy, allen and phatak and
cup met is a possibility. if i dont see any improvement
with the con 200c that i gave today, i will consider
the cup met. my radar program just went down and i
need to get that corrected to check further.
thanks so much

Bran is not something I would ever give my dog, dogs are carnivores and do not have the correct denture to chew any vegetable matter, which is the only way a dog can produce amylase...the enzyme necessary to digest vegetable matter,...their guts do not produce it, unlike humans.
As a raw feeder, I have never supplemented in the past, correct feeding does not require supplementation, sadly though we cannot prevent ageing and the normal reduction in efficiencies that come with it....hence my idea for silica...it is to be used for healing, not as a food supplement.
The overall condition of the dog is very good...it appears that his food is maintaining him well, but this is for extra help to regenerate...short term only.

Strangely enough, my dogs issues actually came from a hard fall, causing spinal concussion.

I treated him at the time with Arnica and hypericum and he appeared to be healing, but his right elbow seems to be swelling a little and his feet are wobbly...loose ligaments/tendons and he gets a small swelling in the small bones of his left foot.

Both the foot and the elbow are only an issue on some days, but then in late November he suddenly started to become reallly anxious when I was out of the home, even though he has his son and my husband as company/walks/fun.
He started scratching his face when I wasn't there during the day...never at night nor when I was at home, but one day when I got home, his whole face was covered in blood...he'd scratched so badly he'd removed whiskers, fur and skin, despite washing with saltwater followed by Calendula, and as he appeared to be getting the same green ooze that had responded really well to when I first had him,and he's always healed minor sprains/strains really well with the same
Just before christmas he had a real problem getting up from his bed...his legs were shaking he was crying and he couldn't put his weight on his back legs, they were shaking so much...I gave him Nux Vom and spoke to my homeopath/mentor who said she thought that he may have hepatic issues...and of course Nux has 'lesions around the mouth in the picture'...as the nux appeared to address all three problems I felt sure...combined with Wolff who also said that disc lesions and back problems of this sort respond well to Nux, no matter the cause, and that there are ALWAYS hepatic problems with spinal damage.
Wolff uses X with animals, but I find that animals have such strong energy, they can use up the dose very quickly and I used Nux vom 200c ...he responded immediately but for the first twentyfour hours I had to repeat the dose about every two hours...my dog mostly slept through it...his appetite wasn't affected nor his ability to defacate, the following three days he took three repeats, then three more times over the next five days and nothing in the following six weeks to date.
But this is why I have looked at his nutrition and started replacing some of the protein sources to reduce the muscle meat.
Then when I had coffee with my mentor and it came up in the conversation that after 11 years of owning this dog, for the first time ever, I lost him, on our usual walk, and he turned up at home whilst I was frantically looking for him, he appeared really confused, and for the first time ever, didn't seem to know how to find me but thought I'd gone home?
So she suggested that he was in need of liquid silica to get more help with cell renewal, both body and brain, ....much to my distress, he appears to being ageing far too early. I expected this dog to be around until at least 15 +, but people have started to comment that he's an old boy, when a year ago, they'd think he was 6 or 7...he's just looking tired I guess.
This has lead me to adding the Baryta carb 6c to the Vermicullite 6x that I put in his drinking water, the studies I've seen about vermicullite and pain from exotoses jpoints and movement (he has one on his back left hock/ankle), dose at least three times a day for 6 months or even more, and he's been having it for about three.

The Baryta carb......he practically has to be dragged home despite his apparent tiredness.
I'm totally untrained so I'm sorry if this isn't the way that homeopaths usually discuss matters, but it's the best I can do I'm afraid.

So this is where I'm at Tanya...looking at his nutrition to supplement short time.

I hope there maybe something there of help to you.
