Betsy Asks: Lately I have noticed an intolerance for citrus and any acidic foods. My tongue feels like it is burned. Fortunately it doesn't last long if I brush my teeth and rinse well so that I have cleared my palate of the acidic substance. I think this is another way my body speaks to me. Do you have any recommendations on books about the body's signals, or in my case about mapping the tongue? Thank you and Merry Christmas! Sorry to ask so frequently about the books, I know this will be fascinating if I can find the right book.

Hello, this is Gracie from Chicago. Ever since I had an infected toe that I had to take 10 days of antibiotics for my toe that looks like it’s a fungus toe. It’s very discolored. The podiatrist said that it’s discolored because the skin separated from the nail. and then on top of it, I developed a spur ridge underneath the cuticle going all the way across. There is a white part of my nail growing from the bottom up, but most of the nail is discolored, not pale pink but a pale yellowish color.

MerryB, Apache Jct., AZ: Greetings from the Arizona Hobbit. I was so sorry your friend ended up in the hospital. One of my biggest fears as a senior has been ending up in a hospital from an accident and not having control, so I am really looking forward to your upcoming series on how we can protect ourselves and the lives of our loved ones. I saw the Against Medical Advice (AMA) form on the Q&A page but I can't seem to access it. Emoji

Hi Dr. Glidden: Due to eye surgery to replace my own lenses with artificial lenses, I need to take medication in the form of eye drops. These are an antibiotic, a corticosteroid, and an NSAID. If I don't take them, what is the alternative to avoid complications?

I appreciate you so much Dr. G! All the suggestions you have given me have been spot on. Today I have two questions. 1) Back to my 90 yo dad who has early stage (dry type) macular degeneration. Based on his age, would the eye health protocol (selenium, EFAs, Good Herbs circulation, etc.) help slow it down? 2) my 36 yo niece just diagnosed with early stage HPV cervical cancer. Although contracted from intimate contact, she also took the jabberdoodle poison so who knows if it's turbo-charged Any suggestions of options to explore? I researched that certain mushrooms like turkey tail may be beneficial. Heartfelt thank you.
Good morning. I had less than 15% improvement with the 1 M sulphur you recommended in our zoom meeting. I am working too many hours to schedule the follow up needed. Will be another couple weeks before I can schedule. What do you suggest I do until then?
Hi Dr. G, Kate from WI. I am wondering if you would suggest a homeopathic as a prophylactic for High Altitude Sickness. My family will be skiing in Colorado this winter and the last time we went my kids suffered from HAS for a couple days.
what to do for sty in eye?

Hi Dr. Glidden. This question is about the first four bad foods on the list - wheat, rye, barley, and oats. Is there any safe alternative? Some people talk about soaking grains before cooking for example. Then you have sprouted grains, fermented grains like sour dough, and then ancient grains like Einkorn, Amaranth, or Kamut. I don’t think any of these alternatives are gluten free, but they have less gluten than regular wheat. Of course you would want to make sure any of this is as organic as possible with no exposure to glyphosate. But are any of these okay, or is it just a losing battle and better to stay away from all of it?

I must give you feedback on your Full Moon Parasite Cleanse...I have been using Standard Process products for more than a decade and have NEVER had the result that your protocol produced. It is extremely effective!! Question...in your book it states to do it for 3 days and on your website it states 4 days. Does the extra day make a difference?

My husband, who is sitting next to me, experiences anal itchy about 1-3 hours prior to a bowel movement and after a hot shower. He suspects it may be fissures. What do you recommend to help him alleviate this issue/

Mrs. Ken B. here. I have been taking 1M naturum fluoratum as last advised by you for my hip pain. It is not helping. Somedays it is difficult to walk. Everything I do hurts my hip, even sitting, just not as bad. Sleep is hit or miss. This is affecting every aspect of my life. In conducting research I am thinking this is menopausal gluteal tendonopathy. Do you think red light therapy would help with this? I am at a complete loss and I don't want to turn to an MD to help with this.
