![]() It can then focus on other areas that needs attention. So the concept is remove the source of infection and your immune system has one less thing to handle that day. Think of tape pulling lint off your clothing. The membrane of the microorganisms is lipid based and we know oil and water do not mix but oil and other fats can bond together. It works to remove the microbes by binding them to the oil. Do once a day or 3x if a sever infection is present. Essentially you swish oil vigorously in your mouth 15 - 20 mins and spit the oil out then rinse your mouth thoroughly. You can read on this site about oil pulling. One solution is oil pulling which removes the microbes from the mouth. The microbes can release toxins causing inflammation in the body and or they can migrate into the joints causing pain. All can allow an overgrowth of microorganisms, even if you think your mouth is healthy. The low grade infection could stem from dental work, crowns, root canals, or inflamed gums. Some ND's believe a low grade infection in your mouth can cause secondary infections elsewhere in the body such as osteoarthritis and gout. I have done a lot of research for my folks and thought maybe this info could be of some help. The crystals are a symptom of the disease not the cause. It is also not caused by crystals forming and causing pain. Gout is a form of arthritis and some believe may be caused by a virus since it behaves like a virus as it may lay dormant and then flare up. But, I'm certainly going to give it my best shot. I have no idea if doing so will be a long term solution to keep the uric acid levels at bay. I plan on drinking the concoction three times a day for about a week then go to twice a day (morning and night). But, for a $10 spot what do you have to lose? Personally, I like the idea of not having to take a pain pill and drinking something completely natural instead. I can't guarantee that it will work for everybody. There is something about the ACV, and the black cherry juice, that neutralizes the uric acid in the body and prevents those needle sharp crystals from forming in the joints. She thought I was nuts to be drinking something so "nasty". My wife laughed at me when I told her about this home remedy. I took a third "dose" just before I left for work. I can still feel a twinge of stinging pain if I bend my toe too far back. I woke up this morning and I could walk normally about 90% pain free. I did not take any Alleve, or pain meds of any kind, so I could better judge if the concoction was actually doing anything. ![]() Within a few hours the pain had decreased quite a bit. I took a "dose" as soon as I got home from work. I read that any kind of cherry juice will work, but it has to be straight cherry juice with nothing else added to it (preservatives, sugar, etc). I bought a 16 ounce bottle of ACV with "mother", and a 16 ounce bottle of black cherry concentrate for $10. I like vinegar so I didn't find the taste objectionable. You can even add some honey if you'd like for a better flavor. It has to be the organic, and unprocessed, ACV that can be found in any healthfood store and some grocery stores), 2 TBSP of black cherry concentrate (also found in healthfood stores and some grocery stores), mixed with 8 ounces of water. I decided to try the apple cider vineger/black cherry concoction that has already been mentioned: 2 TBSP apple cider vinegar with "mother" ("mother" is the floating stuff you see in the ACV. Yesterday I searched online for some home remedies for gout and found this website. I took the Alleve and it helped a little with taking the sharp edge off the pain, but the gout flare was still going strong. ![]() I was limping around like an old man using the wall for support. Well, this past Monday I had another gout flare. I declined the medication and told him that I would stick with taking Alleve when the pain became too unbearable. But, the side effects were worse than the actual disease. He told me of some medicine options that could help with the gout. He said the gout has caused irreversible damage to my toe joints, and I have developed arthritis in both knees. The doctor took X-rays of my foot and my knees. At the time I went to the doctor my knees were also hurting. Nothing in my diet, exercise levels, or any other factor has changed.ĭue to the increase in the frequency of the flares I went to the doctor, during a bad gout flare, to see if something could be done. ![]() Luckily I haven't had a flare in both feet at the same time. And, it always alternates between my left foot and right foot. But, within the past 6 months or so, I've been getting them every week. I usually get a gout flare once every year or two.
