This made me think of a story recently here in the U.S.  The boy has cancer and since the mothers religious beliefs do not believe in medicine, rather the homopathic kind she was willing to risk her sons life.  Apparently he has a 95% chance of living if going through chemo.  What was this mother thinking taking off and running away with her sonSad?  If it was the route she wanted to take fine..however her son is not old enough to make that decision. It´s a shame he can´t even read.

 FYI...

 

Minn. parents agree to let son undergo chemo
By PATRICK CONDON – 53 minutes ago

NEW ULM, Minn. (AP) — The parents of a Minnesota boy who refused chemotherapy for his cancer have told a judge they now agree to the medical treatment, and the judge says the boy can stay with them.

Thirteen-year-old Daniel Hauser has Hodgkin´s lymphoma. He and his mother missed a court appearance last week and left the state to avoid chemo and try to get alternative treatments. Colleen and Anthony Hauser now say they understand their son needs chemotherapy.

Daniel returned to Minnesota on Monday after almost a week on the run. A doctor´s exam showed a tumor in his chest has grown and is pushing against his trachea, causing pain.

Brown County Family Services objected to the ruling, saying they wanted Daniel to stay in the county´s custody.

I use it all the time, I´ve used it all my life and for me, iIt works very well.  I use one or the other...that is either the baking soda or vinegar....rarely both together.

 

More...and more...this one has some cautionary information

Did I say they were natural...what is natural anyway? Is cooked food, yougurt, cheese or a multitude of other things naturall?

 

Anyway, use it or don´t use it, it´s your choice.  I do and am pleased with the results.  Normally all I ever take is a couple of sips, not a whole glass.

I´ve heard about baking soda and heartburn but the only application I have seen of baking soda and vinegar together was in a programme called "How clean is your house" - the ladies there used baking soda, vinegar and salt to clean pipes under sink, they said that soda&vinegar react in an explosive way so it can only be done with great care...

.....I wouldn´t exactly call it explosive...baking soda and vinegar fizz, like when you open a bottle of soda.  Yes, baking soda has an amazing variety of uses....I also pour it down the sink to deoderize and clean...and sometimes add vinegar. 

 

some uses for baking soda...aka sodium bicarbonate

 

What is really dangerous is if you mix chlorine bleach and ammonia. That can kill you.  I Accidently did that once and survived.  It is fortunate it was a very well ventilated space.  I thought I was going to really get something clean...live and learn.  Never do that! I even keep them in different locations so as to not have an accident of them spilling and mixing.

 

Common cleaning products may be dangerous when mixed
