When using nutritional medicines like magnesium chloride, iodine, sodium bicarbonate, vitamin C and selenium, the dose determines the effect. read this on Dr Sircus' Website Dosages for Natural Allopathic Medicine November 11, 2014 under Medicine Offering a revolution in medicine, that any person, patient, doctor or alternative healthcare practitioner can practice, Natural Allopathic Medicine offers hope in the 21st century to rich and poor alike. This chapter is an overview of dosages for most of the Natural Allopathic protocol. Dosages are not an exact science for it varies so much from person to person and from one medical situation to another. Great weight differences need to be estimated in. Obviously infants cannot handle what a full-grown adult could but do not tell that to pediatricians who support vaccinationists who do not pay keen attention to medical common sense in this regard. Learning to use a natural medicine (even though it might be used in an emergency room) is not the same as using and prescribing a pharmaceutical, which needs formal training in how to poison “safely.” Pharmaceuticals are mitochondria poisons with side effects that are actually the main effects if the truth be told. Natural medicine and nutritional laws run by one set of rules and pharmaceutical companies by others. This medical document makes it easy to learn and practice natural medicine at home safely but is comprehensive enough for the physician who wants to stop poisoning people with toxic drugs and start to help them instead.  When using nutritional medicines like magnesium chloride, iodine, sodium bicarbonate, vitamin C and selenium, the dose determines the effect. In conventional allopathic medicine they say the ‘dose makes the poison’ but in the Natural Allopathic Medicine protocol we are not using poisons. In Natural Allopathic Medicine we often take doses to exceedingly high levels without the side effects found in pharmaceuticals that are an ever-present danger even at very low doses. In allopathic medicine everything, even water and vitamin C, are placed on a scale of toxicity with everything being defined as poisonous. Though it is true that one can drown in water, a large person can safely drink a gallon of it without ill affect and one can put pounds of magnesium chloride in a bath and take very high doses of iodine safely for infectious disorders without the serious and dangerous downside of antibiotics. Adverse effects of natural medicinals are very rare. It is certainly possible to cure incurable diseases. We can also save lives. Emergency rooms and intensive care wards use magnesium chloride and magnesium sulphate, and even more commonly, sodium bicarbonate, to save lives in a heartbeat every day. They just do not like to talk about it. Can you imagine hearing a doctor bragging about how he saved a life with simple cheap baking soda? Oncologists use it to buffer chemotherapy making it less dangerous and dialysis units use it because there is no better kidney medicine. Starting Out Low doses do not get clinical results! Through the years, the mistake I have seen people making repeatedly is under-dosing. However, that does not mean you have to race to the top, not unless it is an emergency like stage 4 or 5 cancer. If one’s life is measured in terms of only days then there is little to lose and everything to gain by increasing dosages as quickly as possible. Someone with Ebola or grave flu and on life support do not have as much time as a cancer patient, whose disease progresses much more slowly. If one has a serious infection and are just starting out with Natural Allopathic Medicine it is a race to the top but in measured steps. One can increase, instead of day by day, every two or three hours. Because water itself can be used as a medicine it can be given every fifteen to thirty minutes. My book Water Based Medicine is all about what you can put in the water to make it the best medicine in the world. Sodium bicarbonate, magnesium chloride, iodine, selenium and potassium bicarbonate can be added, though not all at the same time, to create miracle water. Sodium bicarbonate is one of the fastest acting substances with magnesium chloride right behind it. With iodine we have a formidable line up of infection fighters. As a general rule with all protocol items it is best to start out low and get used to each substance and then slowly bring the doses up. What it says on the bottle of whatever you are using is a good guide for beginning doses. The Nascent Iodine is a good example. On the bottle it says 1-3 drops 3 times a day. Ten drops a day is only 4 mg. I used to give my three-year-old (she is now nine) 15 drops at each application instead of antibiotics and she rarely got sick. I like Nascent Iodine very much but for most people who are going to be using high dosages, for example for cancer treatment, I recommend Lugol’s Iodine because I like it very much too and it is much less expensive. When taking something for the first time, you need to start with a minimum dose, like you would putting your toes in the water to check the temperature. Powders or tonics can be mixed in varying concentrations by using more or less water. In emergency situations when you cannot afford the luxury of driving up the doses slowly, it is best to work with a health professional. Natural Allopathic Medicine shares many traits with orthomolecular medicine, which is a form of complementary and alternative medicine that seeks to maintain health and prevent or treat diseases by optimizing nutritional intake and/or prescribing supplements; it focuses on using the right nutritional molecules in the right amounts for the individual. There is no question that vitamins and minerals do prevent and treat serious diseases, including cancer and heart disease, when the nutrients are supplied in sufficiently high doses. Cardiologist Dr. Thomas Levy said, “The three most important considerations in effective vitamin C therapy are dose, dose, and dose. If you don’t take enough, you won’t get the desired effects.” In Natural Allopathic Medicine, we focus on the protocol approach combining the most powerful natural substances available and this reduces the focus on the need for the super high dosages of vitamin C that can only be had with expensive IVs. Since each substance in the protocol offers strong medical firepower, with each working perfectly in synchronicity with the others, it changes our calculations and dependency on any one agent acting alone.   With severe influenza and especially with Ebola, either IVs are necessary or oral intakes need to be round the clock at the highest dosages. Always it needs to be remembered that body weight has everything to do with dosage. Though you might choose to start ten medicinals, you do not want to start all ten on the same day. When using these medicines you use the reactions and feelings of your body to navigate upwards toward higher doses. Our body knows the difference between helpful medicinals and those that are doing it harm. I always tell people to feel their way up. If you take a dose of something and there is no reaction then it is safe to keep increasing the dose. I have had people at death’s door recover much in terms of feelings and an unexpected return of strength taking the medicinals in this protocol. One can expect to start feeling something positive within days. Sometimes, depending on the medical situation, relief is felt within hours. When one puts magnesium oil on the skin sometimes it relieves pain in minutes. Same with medical marijuana salves and balms. Put some on a burn and see how fast the pain goes away. Combining methods of administration is the best way of maximizing intake of medicinals but must be done under close supervision to avoid over-usage. One can use IVs, take medicinal baths, intake orally, use enemas, nebulize and apply transdermally (topically) directly on the skin depending on which protocol item you are using and what you are treating and its severity. Care must be taken to pay attention to your own body and adjust according to how you feel. Your body’s feeling state gives much useful feedback so pay attention to it and its reactions. Inexpensive treatments are not necessarily any less effective than costly ones. For some medical situations inexpensive medicinals like sodium bicarbonate and iodine and even medical marijuana are all actually stronger than the strongest pharmaceuticals except with these medicinals you don’t have the toxicity or dangerous side effects. A boy’s serious ailment, glycogen storage disease (GSD), required only a simple fix once it was diagnosed. “Dr. David Weinstein agreed to accept Peter as a patient and to perform DNA testing. He advised Mathiasen to replace the bedtime yogurt with a drink containing several tablespoons of cornstarch. One of the cheapest ingredients in a supermarket at less than $2 per box, cornstarch, provides slow-release glucose. Within weeks, Peter’s episodes largely disappeared.” “One of the problems we’ve had is that treatments are not fancy—cornstarch is a gravy thickener,” observed Weinstein, who said his program has treated 400 children from 31 countries and nearly every state. “Most people feel that if we’re not treating it with a fancy medication, it’s not a real medical condition,” and in some cases schools do not take it seriously. When practicing western medicine it is thought that if the dose is low enough even a highly toxic substance will cease to cause a harmful effect. The toxic potency of a chemical is thus ultimately defined by the dose (the amount) of the chemical that will produce a specific response in a specific biological system. However, poison is poison even at low dosages and doctors and medical officials of the government in the FDA and CDC tend to underestimate toxicity wildly. Magnesium Dr. Raul Vergini says, “Magnesium chloride has a unique healing power on acute viral and bacterial diseases. It cured polio and diphtheria and that was the main subject of my magnesium book. A few grams of magnesium chloride every few hours will clear nearly all acute illnesses. I have seen a lot of flu cases healed in 24-48 hours with 3 grams of magnesium chloride taken every 6-8 hours.” Dr. Vergini wrote, “I was looking for a solution to cleanse wounds, because Dr. Delbet had found out that the traditional antiseptic solutions actually mortified tissues and facilitated the infection instead of preventing it. He tested several mineral solutions and discovered that a magnesium chloride has a great effect over leukocytic activity (Increases leucocytes to fight infection) and phagocytosis; so it was perfect for external wounds treatment.” In 1915, a French surgeon, Prof. Pierre Delbet, M.D wrote, “From a practical standpoint, please remember that only magnesium CHLORIDE—and no other magnesium salt—has this ‘cytophylactic’ activity. The solution to be used is a 2.5% magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl2-6H2O) solution (i.e. 25 grams in 1 liter of water).” Doses are as follows: Adults and children over 5 years old 125 cc 4-year-old children 100 cc 3-year-old children 80 cc 1-2-year-old children 60 cc Children over 6 months old 30 cc Children under 6 months old 15 cc In acute diseases the dose is administered every 6 hours (every 3 hours for the first two doses if the case is serious); then space every 8 hours and then 12 hours as improvement goes on. After recovery it’s better going on with a dose every 12 hours for some days. The antimicrobial activity of MgCl2[1] is much stronger than that of NaCl, KCl, or CaCl2. No effect was observed with MgSO4 or when cells were exposed to MgCl2 in phosphate buffer with a pH≥5. Dr. Norman Shealy says, “Magnesium is the key to intracellular health! It is essential to keep the cell wall at minus 60 millivolts so that nerve cells are not excessively excitable. Of course, there are other nutritional problems but few as rampant as magnesium deficiency. In addition to inadequate intake, magnesium absorption is unusual---absorbed in the distal colon! And all magnesium salts are laxatives. If the gut transit time is less than 12 hours, you do not absorb it. Magnesium absorption is also partially blocked by calcium, which is preferentially absorbed.” Therefore, for many applying magnesium oil topically is the preferred method of administration, and that includes baths as well. Cell voltage is a key concept and is tied mathematically to cell pH. As pH gets more acid, cells lose voltage meaning they lose their health and strength. General Use of Magnesium Oil For general use I recommend magnesium oil applied transdermally so it will bypass the GI tract thus avoiding the side effect of loose stools that will limit the amount you can take in. With regular use deficiencies will be relieved.  You can use 1-2oz of magnesium oil on your full body per day without concern for toxic or side effects. Oil can be applied multiple times per day to areas of pain or inflammation.  Massage it in for a relaxing treatment. See my essay on How to Use Magnesium Oil for further information. Please also see my essay on mixing oral and transdermal magnesium chloride for information on combining administration methods. One spray of Ancient Minerals Magnesium Oil will provide @ 18-20 mg. of magnesium chloride. Medicinal Baths I am recommending doses for baths ranging anywhere from 2 to 4 pounds to even 6 pounds of magnesium flakes or a combination of flakes with Dead Sea salt and perhaps even some Epsom salt. I am not talking about a nice hot magnesium bath for simple relaxation but a professional bath intended for a strong therapeutic effect. Sodium bicarbonate can be added starting from one cup to upward of a few pounds for great effect. See my essay on bath bombs, which is all about adding citric acid to the mix, which turns the sodium bicarbonate into carbon dioxide microbubbles. These baths can be taken 1-3 times per week, depending on  exposure to toxins. Sodium Bicarbonate The dosage varies with one’s pH readings of both urine and saliva and the condition being treated. Maximum dosage is right on the Arm & Hammer box, which is seven half-teaspoons a day for a full grown adult under age 60 and three half-teaspoons for people over age 60. One has to check their pH daily in the morning and after a bicarbonate bath, which can be made quite strong. Add 1 lb or more to a bath 2x/week if heavy detoxification of radiation or other strong pollutants is needed. When treating cancer, take the urinary pH up to 8.0 and keep it there for ten days, then take a week off and start again for another 7 to 10 days. This can be repeated until one test negative for cancer or one just feels the lack of need as health returns. This is also true for infections such as a cold or flu, but often these resolve after only a few days of bicarbonate use.Then the bicarb use can be stopped. Again start out slowly and monitor your body’s reactions, always guiding yourself with the pH strips. One can take a lot of bicarbonate for a short period of time so do not hesitate. General Rules for Using Sodium Bicarbonate In order to secure the best results with Arm & Hammer Pure Bicarbonate of Soda (Baking Soda) when taken internally, certain simple rules must be observed. Materia Medica, pharmacology and Therapeutics (Bastedo, Page 88) clearly outlines these rules to follows: “The effect of an alkali in the stomach will vary according to the nature of the stomach contents at the time of administration. In the resting period (after food is digested) sodium bicarbonate merely dissolves mucus and is absorbed as bicarbonate into the blood, to increase its alkalinity directly. “In the digestive period it reduces the secretion of gastric juice, neutralizes a portion of the hydrochloric acid, liberates the carminative carbon dioxide gas, and is absorbed as sodium chloride. “In cases of fermentation or ‘sour stomach’ it may neutralize the organic acids and so result in the opening of a spasmodically closed pylorus (the opening between the stomach and the small intestine); while at the same time it acts to overcome flatulency (accumulation of gas in the stomach and bowels). “The time of administration must, therefore, be chosen with a definite purpose. Usually for hyperchlohydria (excess of acid) one hour or two hours after meals will be the period of harmful excess of acid. “In continuous hyperacidity and in fermentative conditions a dose an hour before meals will tend to prepare the stomach for the next meal; or sometimes a dose will be necessary immediately after eating, because of abnormal acid or base having been present at the commencement of the meal. (For the average person one-half hour after meals is recommended). “A dose at bedtime tends to check the early morning acidity, or a dose on arising cleans the stomach of acid and mucus before breakfast.” Whenever taking a bicarbonate solution internally the soda should be dissolved on cold water. “Besides doing good in respiratory affections, bicarbonate of soda is of inestimable value in the treatment of Alimentary Intoxication, Pyelitis (inflammation of the pelvis of the kidney), Hyper-Acidity of Urine, Uric Acid disturbances, Rheumatism and Burns. An occasional three-day course of Bicarbonate of Soda increases the alkalinity of the blood, assists elimination and increases the resisting power of the body to all Infectious Diseases.” Sodium Bicarbonate Use for Colds and Flu “The proven value of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda as a therapeutic agent is further evinced by the following evidence of a prominent physician named Dr. Volney S. Cheney, in a letter to the Church & Dwight Company: “In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the ‘Flu’ with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely any one who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks. I have since that time treated all cases of ‘Cold,’ Influenza and LaGripe by first giving generous doses of Bicarbonate of Soda, and in many, many instances within 36 hours the symptoms would have entirely abated. Further, within my own household, before Woman’s Clubs and Parent-Teachers’ Associations, I have advocated the use of Bicarbonate of Soda as a preventive for “Colds,” with the result that now many reports are coming in stating that those who took “Soda” were not affected, while nearly everyone around them had the “Flu.” Recommended dosages from the Arm and Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were: During the first day take six doses of half teaspoonful of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals. During the second day take four doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals.  During the third day take two doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter half teaspoonful in gladss of cool water each morning until cold is cured.  In Kidney Disease Sodium Bicarbonate has been shown to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease and to improve nutritional status in kidney patients. The doses used in the research were 600-650mg. given 2 or 3 times per day which is equal to 1/8 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate in water or one capsule of sodium bicarbonate. It is generally used in those with chronic metabolic acidosis. Overt chronic metabolic acidosis in patients with chronic kidney disease develops after a drop of glomerular filtration rate to less than approximately 25 mL/min/1.73 m2. The pathogenic mechanism seems to be a lack of tubular bicarbonate production, which in healthy individuals neutralizes the acid net production. New clinical trials are now going on to further determine who benefits and how much is needed per day. Sodium Bicarbonate Enemas Sodium bicarbonate can be used quite strongly to combat Candida and cancer in the colon.[2] I recommend starting with 1/8 cup of bicarbonate in a full quart of water and working up gradually to ½-cup maximum. Seawater is great for this application but seawater alone is better used for long-term therapy and also because the real point to irrigating seawater into the colon is to get it into the blood as if one were doing an IV. Sodium bicarbonate enemas can be started gradually, perhaps once every other day for candida treatment and up to 3x/day when doing intense sodium bicarbonate treatments for colon cancers. Always check your pH daily and keep within safe parameters of 7.3-7.4 unless cancer is being treated and you are aiming for pH of 8. Use less frequently once pH gets to 8. Length of use will depend on severity of infection and relief of symptoms. In cancer treatments sodium bicarbonate can be instilled closely to tumors in the uterus, colon and GI tract with enemas. The procedure adopted by Dr. Simoncini called TAT should be utilized.[3] 360° TAT (turn around treatment) When sodium bicarbonate administered in a cavity Lay down on the bed 2 pillows under the pelvis Turn around 90° degrees every 15 minutes Positions: supine, left and right side, prone Stomach cancer 1 plenty teaspoon sodium bicarbonate in 1 and 1/2 glass tepid water Taste with a finger if it’s salty Lay down on the bed Drink slowly and make TAT Twice a day, 20 minutes before breakfast and dinner, for one month 1 week break Make 2 times the whole cycle IV 500 ml sodium bicarbonate 5% 6 days on 6 days off for 4 cycles Iodine Dr. David Brownstein uses 200-300 milligrams of iodine daily, with higher doses for more serious and difficult diseases. In perspective, this seemingly “high” dose is still far lower than what the 11th edition of the 1910-1911 Encyclopedia Britannica cites as the “usual” doses of 300-900 milligrams (300,000-900,000 micrograms!) of iodine daily. This is over 2,000 times more than common recommendations. “At 6 grams daily (which is 6 million mcg/day or 6,000 mg/day!), a much higher dose, iodine has been used to cure syphilis, skin lesions, and chronic lung disease,” says Dr. Gabriel Cousens. Dr. Michael B. Schachter says, “The treatment dose when a person is iodine insufficient is generally between 12.5 and 50 mg daily. Preliminary research indicates that if a person is iodine insufficient, it takes about three months to become iodine sufficient while ingesting a dosage of 50 mg of iodine and a year to become iodine sufficient while ingesting a dosage of 12.5 mg of iodine daily. However, the patient needs to be monitored closely with awareness of possible side effects and detoxification reactions.” Iodine is safe and easy to give children in liquid form. When they get sick iodine is one of the first medicinals to go for. Personally, when I use it, I do not bother to count the drops I just squirt a dropper into a large glass of water. People with preexisting thyroid conditions need to be more careful and possibly take bovine hormone with iodine as well as selenium and vitamin E. When used transdermally iodine can be applied full strength to skin over breast cancer for example. Specific instructions are given for this treatment in my Surviving Cancer Compendium in a section on breast cancer. Iodine can also be applied topically over skin cancers. It is recommended to use a 7% Lugol’s solution and paint the lesion multiple times per day until a scab forms and then falls off. Once it falls off, continue to apply the iodine till another scab forms and falls off naturally.Do not force removal o the scab.  Once three scabs have fallen off the cancer should be gone. If using a smaller iodine percentage, apply more frequently. Selenium Knowledgeable doctors are able, with nearly 100% regularity, to increase the blood levels of selenium by several fold by giving 1,000-2,000 micrograms of selenium daily and then dropping back to a maintenance dose. In one case, a dosage level of 2,700 mcg/day for two months followed by six weeks of 5,000 mcg/day was required to bring up the selenium blood levels. Dr. Schrauzer, who is internationally respected for his groundbreaking research on aspects of vitamins and essential trace elements, notably selenium, reports that dosages of 2,000-5,000 mcg per day will produce toxicity symptoms only after several months. However, since the early symptoms of selenium toxicity such as nausea, weakness, and discoloration of the fingernails are easily noticed, high doses have not been reported to have caused any fatalities. The best selenium products are bonded to killed yeast (Megafood) but the one I personally recommend and use is called Tung Oil. Each drop is one milligram, which is five to 20 times more than any other product. After learning about a pharmaceutical company that makes injectable selenium for intensive care wards I wrote a book on Selenium. It is so safe that like iodine I don’t count the drops but for cancer patients I recommend 20 drops a day divided between two dosages or 10 drops twice a  day. In emergency situations dosages, and thus anti-inflammatory effect, can be taken to a max of 40 drops a day. Maintenance dosages are five to ten drops every day or every other day as tolerated. For general health maintenance, the amount recommended per day is one or two drops. For other types of selenium maintenance dosage would be 400 to 600 mcg. Glutathione The recommended therapy is three boxes of full strength Glutathione suppositories for a profound effect (45 Glutathione suppositories). The total number of rectal suppositories required depends on your toxicity level, your Glutathione level and your health goals (Parkinson's, viral infection, cancer, old age, etc.). These can be taken every day, but as ones situation improves, one can go down to one every two or three days. For less expensive and lower dosage suppositories, see this link. L-Glutathione Plus  is also available for nebulization from Theranaturals with bicarbonate. Follow label directions. Vitamin C Vitamin C megadosage is the consumption (or injection) of vitamin C (ascorbate) in doses comparable to the amounts produced by the livers of most other mammals and well beyond the current Dietary Reference Intake. Some practitioners of vitamin C mega dose therapy may consume up to 20 grams per day, depending on their bowel tolerance, under the belief that it will lead to optimal health or healing of various conditions. The dosage is usually divided and consumed in portions over the day. IVs of 50 or 100 grams per day are advocated by some physicians for therapy of certain conditions, poisonings, and recovery from trauma. People who practice vitamin C mega dosage may consume many vitamin C pills throughout each day or dissolve pure vitamin C crystals in water or juice and drink it throughout the day. Making one’s own liposomal vitamin C is a less expensive option. Ultimate Protector™ offers unprecedented ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) values that act as an overwhelming antioxidant blanket that will smother inflammatory free radical fires. It will reduce pain, inflammation and reduce oxidative stress in humans quickly if taken in high enough dosages. When using the Ultimate Protector my recommendation is four to ten capsules per day and two to four caps for children in divided doses. Medical Marijuana A 2013 survey in the New England Journal of Medicine found that nearly 8-in-10 doctors approved the use of medical marijuana. Now, a wide-ranging survey in California finds that medical marijuana patients agree: 92% said that medical marijuana alleviated symptoms of their serious medical conditions, including chronic pain, arthritis, migraine, and cancer. Cannabis-marijuana can be inhaled, juiced, or eaten in high dosages without fear of dangerous side effects. It does not cause harm but rather is protective of our body’s systems, and it heals. Cannabis cannot harm you and no one has ever died from overdoing cannabis. Dosage varies widely depending on how one takes cannabis and on one’s sensitivities, and of course it varies with the strength of the cannabis used and what it is being used for. For hemp oil patients should start with 3 doses per day about half the size of a grain of dry rice, a dose such as this would equal about one quarter of a drop and after four days at this dosage, they should increase their doses little more every four days until you are at the point where you are ingesting about 1 gram a day, so each dose should equal 1/3 of a gram. People’s sensitivities vary widely with hemp oil and again the size and weight of a person is a big factor. A full course of treatment with hemp oil for a cancer patient is 3 months using 60 grams in total. Cannabis balms or creams can be applied as needed throughout the day, to painful or inflamed areas. Vitamin D and the Sun A 50,000 IU capsule costs as little as 21 cents, ($21 for a bottle of 100 capsules Amazon US ) This mega dose formula may be what your family needs to protect themselves from the ravages of viral infections. It is also what one wants to use if one has cancer, diabetes, MS and just about any other disease one can think of. Normally D3 is sold in 5,000 IU units but this product from Biotech has 50,000 IU units. Vitamin D lowers inflammations of the body, which are what Alzheimer’s, M.S., cancer and Parkinson’s patients are suffering from. 70% of people diagnosed with Parkinson’s are estimated to have low levels of vitamin D. Taking one 50,000 IU capsule of Vitamin D3 every two weeks will result in 80% of adults bringing their blood levels to above 40 nanograms/ millliliter, an optimal level for good health. A 50,000 IU capsule is equivalent to the amount of vitamin D from sunbathing for 3 days in a sunny climate. You can take more 50,000 IU pills initially to feel the benefits more quickly. 50,000 IU To feel benefits in a week To Maintain 40 ng/ml Adult 2 per day for 4 days 1 every 2 weeks Adult – high risk* 4 per day for 4 days 1 every week *About 20% of adults are at  high risk for Vitamin D deficiency: especially those who are obese, pregnant, shut-in, avoid the sun, have dark skin, are senior, live far from the equator, or need to deal with an illness, injury, or surgery. They need at least 2 times more Vitamin D. About 20% of adults are at high risk for Vitamin D deficiency: especially those who are obese, pregnant, shut-in, avoid the sun, have dark skin, are senior, live far from the equator, or need to deal with an illness, injury, or surgery. They need at least 2 times more Vitamin D. For more on dosages visit this site. Also for more on Vitamin D and influenza visit here. Please also see my essay on Vitamin D at: http://drsircus.com/medicine/vitamin-d-ebola-infectious-disease-processes One capsule of HPDI’s Vitamin D3 Plus contains 5,000 IU of vitamin D derived from highly purified and molecularly distilled fish liver oils. In addition, the product contains 1,000 IU of vitamin A also derived from highly purified and molecularly distilled fish liver oils and 10 mcg of vitamin K-2 from menaquinone-7. Vitamin D3 Plus is emulsified by the addition of a non-GMO soy lecithin that ensures excellent uptake by the body. Follow directions of product used if using a vitamin D supplement. Be careful, if you take too much D3 along with too much calcium, your serum calcium may rise too high. Spending 15 minutes in the actual sunshine daily, exposing as much skin as possible, will provide adequate vitamin D production if the angle of the sun is favorable enough though John Cannell of the Vitamin D council is now stating that a new study[4] is showing that this may not even be adequate. In a study conducted between October and November of 2012 at latitude 37 degrees north, about the latitude of Washington, DC, the initial mean 25(OH)D levels were 11 ng/ml and no woman had levels greater than 20 ng/ml to begin the study. The women were told to get 20 minutes of midday sun exposure on their hands, forearms and face every weekday for four weeks. Facial sunblock and sunglasses were permitted. Home testing for vitamin D levels can be obtained without a prescription from the Vitamin D Council. Sea Water Recommended Dosages •          From birth to one year of age - 10 ml in the feeding bottle every other day •          From 1 to 4 years of age - 10 ml daily away from meals •          Over 4 years of age - 10 to 40 ml daily according to the severity of the case •          Adults - 30 to 60 ml daily according to the severity of the case •          Elderly people - 10 to 20 ml per day, or as required, over several months Instructions for Use Seawater is to be taken orally on an empty stomach 20-30 minutes before meals or at least 1½-2 hours after meals. Seawater should be taken pure (hypertonic) or isotonic (diluted in water by 2/3). For children who find the product too salty, it may be taken diluted in some milk or juice. Water Amount of water is judged by urine flow. Urine color should be clear when fully hydrated, light yellow is normal, and the frequency of voiding should be regular and without pain or discomfort when enough water is consumed. When feeling anything uncomfortable, water is the first medicine one should reach for and it provides the best carrier for magnesium, bicarbonate and iodine, making it a valuable medicinal. The ultimate water is high in magnesium bicarbonate which one can buy in some rare bottled waters, or add it from a concentrate. Maximum therapeutic dose is 4 oz. of concentrate to each gallon of distilled water, but one can drink that around the clock. I recommend 8 glasses per day of MagBicarb water. Enzymes Prolyt formula that contains the proteolytic enzymes bromelain, trypsin (pancreatic enzyme), and chymotrypsin (pancreatic enzyme), and the bioflavonoids turmeric extract (95% curcuminoids), quercetin and oligomeric proanthocyanidins from grape seed extract in a vegetarian capsule. As a dietary supplement take 1–2 capsules two times daily away from food, or as directed by a health care professional. For cancer treatments we recommend taking the Prolyt formula between meals so that it gets into the body and doesn’t just work on the digestion of foods. We recommend 12-20 capsules daily in dosages of 4 caps/ serving taken 3-5 times daily. Larger amounts can be taken as needed. Non cancer patients can do the same. Organic Sulfur We recommend 10 grams of organic sulfur per day on average, though many people take quite a bit more. For an average person with no specific health issues, a rounded teaspoon (about 5 grams) twice a day is about right, as the excess organic sulfur is cleared from the body in about 12 hours. Sodium Thiosulfate Most retailers of sodium thiosulfate do not give recommended dosages for human use in diseases, only for water purification or photography use. Dr. Oleg Yasko in Russia recommends about 1-2 drops twice a week in a cup of tea or water… or if the granular is obtained, only one grain added is recommended. It is very potent stuff. If one feels to take more increase dose with caution.  Clinical trials are underway now to determine how best to use sodium thiosulfate. It is a known calcium chelator and we are waiting the results of studies to be be more informed of effective doses. Alpha Lipoic Acid - ALA There is preliminary evidence that ALA, taken in the amount of 150-200mg daily for one month, improves visual function in people with glaucoma. ALA has been shown to inhibit the replication of the HIV virus in the test tube. Dr. Burt Berkson reports evidence of pancreatic cancers with liver metastases recovering through ALA/Naltrexone treatment. The amount of ALA used in research to improve diabetic neuropathies is 600-1800 mg per day and 200 mg per day for glaucoma. 200 mg per day is recommended for general antioxidant protection in healthy people . Because of its chelation effect, one should only cautiously exceed recommended dosages. Use only r-ALA and not the s form of ALA as that is a synthetic version and not as effective. Clay and Intestinal Cleaning Intestinal Rejuvenation Formula as one of the best I’ve seen. Intestinal Rejuvenation Formula is a superior drawing, cleansing, and detoxifying formula for the bowel. It safely and effectively loosens encrusted deposits, pulls toxins, and soothes inflamed tissues, and provides nourishing nutrients for optimal function of the entire digestive (GI) tract. Use as directed. Edible Earth (clay) Edible Earth draws its detoxifying ability from the favorable action that calcium bentonite and montmorillonite  clay has upon the GI tract through its absorption and adsorption of various toxins, pathogens, metabolic wastes, and heavy metals. It soothes and purifies the gut, balances intestinal bacteria,aids in  alkalinization,  One heaping teaspoon in a glass of juice or pure water once a day is recommended.  Use an hour before eating or taking other supplelments. One of my favorite if not favorite products and clays I have used through the years if called Living Clay. It is so pure it tastes clean! Probiotics Prescript-Assist is a combination of 29 probiotic microflora “soil-based-organisms (SBOs)” uniquely combined with a humic/fulvic acid prebiotic that enhances SBO proliferation. Take 2 capsules of Prescript-Assist per day for the first 30 days, followed by 1 to 2 capsules per day thereafter, or as recommended by your healthcare professional. A minimum full 30 day cycle of 2 caps per day should be used to reconstitute beneficial gut flora following any antibiotic regimen. Spirulina and other Super Food Formulas The Rejuvenate superfood spirulina and chlorella formula (Rejuvenate Plus) is another case in point. On the jar it says a serving size is two scoops. That in fact can be repeated two, three, four, or more times a day. I know of two men who saved themselves with ultra-high doses—one used pure spirulina and the other the spirulina-based Rejuvenate formula. One ran his car at high speed under a truck, which flattened his car and badly broke his back. The other had his leg run over by a tractor! I have been promoting spirulina since it first hit the marketplace 35 years ago and through the years have seen what its nutritional power can do. 10 gm. per day for a medical dose, otherwise 3 gm. per day in health. Can be used in tablet form or as powder mixed in smoothies. Be careful of source as not all sources test for heavy metals. Cyanotech, Earthrise and LaMolina are trusted brands. Vitamin E Effective doses are high doses, often hundreds of times more than the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) or Daily Reference Intake (DRI). Dr. Abram Hoffer said, “Drs. Wilfrid Shute and Evan Shute recommended doses from 400 to 8,000 IU of vitamin E daily. The usual dose range was 800-1600 IU but they report that they had given 8,000 IU without seeing any toxicity.” The Shutes successfully treated over 35,000 patients with vitamin E.[5]   [1] Antimicrobial properties of magnesium chloride at low pH in the presence of anionic bases. Magnes Res. 2014 May 1;27(2):57-68. [2] “Those practitioners who administer colonic therapy properly are offering a useful service to the public. This service can be greatly enhanced with the addition of sound dietary counseling so as to eventually overcome the need for colonic therapy. Without this knowledge, the colonic recipient is merely digging holes and filling them again—a net zero toward building a better health quality.” http://detox.net.au/enemas-for-bowel-health/ [3] http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/en/treatment-protocols/protocol-stomach-cancer [4] http://us2.campaign-archive2.com/?u=f545cba30e1f9697fddbe8acb&id=40f15a49e3&e=41524ac1bc  [5] http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v05n01.shtml
