Dynamite Testimonial— Rattlesnake Bite Recovery

I always keep a Dynamite Topical Aid Kit on hand. One of my girlfriends who lived half a country away had bought one from me and on the day of this event, I was never more grateful that she did!

I got a message at work to call my friend Cat ASAP. Since she would never normally contact me at work this way I knew something was wrong and I called her. She'd been up in the mountains with her dogs on a hike and one of them found a big rattlesnake. These dogs are working dogs and aren't known for backing down, especially if there's a threat to their handler. Her dog Hannah got bit by the snake, and from her description I'd say the snake didn't pull any punches with the venom (not a dry bite). The others dispatched the snake. She was a couple of hours from the nearest emergency vet clinic.

Thankfully Cat isn't one to panic. She's a thinker. So she went to work keeping her dog calm and getting her to the car. She'd already cleaned the bite site with peroxide. She knew I had pulled my old German Shepherd out of a hole (vets wrote her off as being too old to survive) after she'd been bitten near the eye by an unidentified poisonous snake. My old dog made it and Cat needed to know what I'd done.

I had her clean with Solace, give it a few minutes, and then put the Miracle Clay on it. I told her, "Don't just dab it on the bite site, coat a large area around the bite site." I know this woman and her dogs very well and know they are on a natural diet and are extremely healthy and fit. In the beginning I told her to use her best judgment and to watch what was coming to surface on the clay. If it was getting dirty, clean it all off and go through the whole thing again. When my dog Dutch was bitten near the eye, I coated her whole head. For Hannah, I had her go 8 inches all the way around the bite site. I had her give Miracle Clay internally in broth made from green tripe. Cleaning the bite site and re-coating with Clay was done every half hour to an hour. When the swelling stopped as the clay drew deeper she changed it every 2 hours round the clock. In doing so, she also found, the next day, a 2nd bite site in the chest in a brindle streak of her fur. The swelling wasn't as bad. She'd read online that Benadryl could help with breathing issues so she used that as well.

This was continued until what she was seeing was this awful greenish color and finally black substance drawn out of her wound. I knew we were in the money once we saw that. Hannah is very well trained but for dogs who aren't, keep in mind that they're going to want to scratch as the drawing of the Clay must be itchy. Cat reported that Hannah acted like she had a bad headache for a few days. She was fed broth from green tripe which had been frozen and thawed. Later she boiled an organic chicken and fed her the broth from that. She continued with the clay until there was no swelling or heat at either bite sight and there were no longer odd colors being drawn from the tissue.

Surprisingly, within a couple of days, Cat was grousing that she was having a hard time getting Hannah to understand that she was not allowed to run around just yet. I was delighted. More over I'm forever grateful that Dynamite products were on hand to help Hannah survive two rattlesnake bites.

I would never advise someone not to seek treatment from a doctor or a vet but even in modern day America, some of us still go places that take hours to come back to civilization. I never go anywhere without my Dynamite Topical Aid Kit. It's small, it fits under the seat of any car and it could save a life.

Dynamite Testimonials - Solace

I recently got my first bottle of Solace. I also recently put a nice cut in my finger which, I should have had stitched, but was in the middle of nowhere and busy, so no go. I have been putting Solace on it and bandaging, and it is almost healed.
—Linda Goddard  Distributor, Minnesota


Distributor Jennifer Judkins introduced me to Solace five years ago when we were at a clinic. I had nasty blisters on each hand… Jen noticed and dabbed some Solace over each one and stuck on bandages. I rode with gloves the rest of the week anyway, but the blisters stopped hurting and no longer seemed to be heading toward infection. They healed up by the end of the clinic, when they otherwise probably would have taken much longer and been much more painful… This summer, I used [Solace] diluted with water and scrubbed one of our horses who had rainrot. He had had numerous baths with medicated shampoo in the few weeks he was with us, but to no avail. A week after the Solace round, he was all healed up.

Dynamite Testimonial—Giddy's Amazing Dynamite Recovery

Other pictures below. WARNING: Pictures are EXTREMELY graphic.

In May of last year I decided to breed one of my Dynamite mares, Giddy. I put her in the pasture with my stallion plus an outside mare to be bred. After I put her in the pasture with them, I watched for a while and felt comfortable enough to leave them together. An hour later, I found Giddy standing alone with her head down and many bite injuries and wounds along with a tremendous hematoma on her neck. From the looks of things, Giddy had run from the stallion and got chased down through woods and then into a fence post. The main injury on Giddy was a hematoma on the left side of her neck the size of a football. I ran cold water over it and applied Miracle Clay to draw out the toxins. As for her supplements, I added Hiscorbadyne® in therapeutic levels, and extra Dyna-Pro™ to her TNT, and Breeder Pack. A couple of days later, the hematoma was leaking somewhat, but, not the way I would have liked. On the fifth day after the accident, she was still feeling very poorly and appeared to me to be worse. The weather was warm and the flies started dive bombing her wound. I sprayed Dyna-Shield around and on her wound. I had noticed maggots started to appear, and read on Dynamite Online that maggots can help keep a wound clean. Therefore, I tried removing some of them, but did not worry about getting all of them. I even utilized some of the new fly product which was being tested by Dynamite. It was a white powder, and when applied, she looked awful, but I was determined to get rid of the flies. On Saturday afternoon, five days after treating her, she acted as if she was feeling worse, and was beginning to smell bad. Her temperature concerned me also. It started at 102 degrees and 2 hours later it had increased to 103.5 degrees. Because her temperature was rising, I decided to call the local vet in case of infection in hopes of getting some antibiotics. I wanted to act responsible in a situation that seemed to me to be turning into more of a crisis. When the vet arrived he looked at me and told me to wash everything off that I had applied. Next, he proceeded to cut a huge amount of skin from her neck telling me that he was trying to prevent infection. Then he sprayed her neck forcefully with hose water making it bleed while explaining to me that I would need to do what he was doing 3 times per day. It was hard to watch this aggressive form of treatment, but I held my tongue.

After the vet had finished, he firmly told me that I would need him to come out once a week to check on Giddy, to prevent infection. Apparently, he was very busy that day, so he gave me instructions to finish up and shave all of the hair around every small and large wound she had. The vet put Giddy on antibiotics, and gave me an aerosol worm remover for the maggots. He instructed me to spray the area hard enough with the hose to make her bleed three times per day so she would heal properly. He also told me I would have to go to a research veterinary school in the near future to do a skin graft, but his main concern was to keep her from getting infected now. Another thing he advised was that I take Giddy off of Hiscorbadyne, which I did not do. Giddy seemed to be doing better and the bad smell was gone five days later, so I discontinued the additional month’s worth of antibiotics the vet recommended. I was confident that keeping Giddy on Dynamite and prayer was all I needed. I never used the aerosol product for the maggots. Also, I never asked the vet to come back because I was uncomfortable with his radical treatment of her wound. Over the next two months, I would gently rinse Giddy’s wound twice a day, and then would gently spray on a mixture of distilled water, Solace, and Trace Minerals Concentrate. Then I would put Wound Balm around the outer edges and Wound Salve on the open area, and spray on Dyna-Shield. The flies and maggots disappeared the next week, so I knew she was healing well. When the wound started to close more in the next month, I started applying Tea Tree Oil mixed with olive oil to the wound, and smeared Wound Balm all around it twice a day. Over the next two months, I noticed she was healing very fast! Interestingly enough, the wound healed so well and quickly that my husband’s client who is a surgical M.D., and saw the before pictures, commented that I should become a veterinary wound specialist. Another vet who saw Giddy during the healing process asked what had happened to her. When I told her, she told me she thought my horse looked really good and to keep doing whatever it was I was doing to help her.

Home Remedy for Cold Sores/ Canker Sores

Try using: Trace Minerals Concentrate Why it works: Trace Minerals Concentrate acts as a natural anti-viral. We are not sure the exact mechanism, but TMC has anti-viral properties. Try this, too: Solace Why it works: Solace, Dynamite's highly concentrated colloidal silver product acts as a natural anti-viral. In fact, silver is used in hospitals to kill MRSA and other anti-biotic resistant bacteria and viruses. "If you get cold sores, you know you will feel a tingle in the area before becomes a full blown sore. Next time you feel the tingle put some Liquid Trace Minerals on a cotton swab and dab at the area every few hours. If it already has become a full blown sore-TMC will clear it up in a very short time." -Sheila Ryan Silver Director, Rhode Island

Home Help for Flu

Being sick is an indicator that things are out of balance and/or that your immune system is not doing its job. One reason for getting sick is that your body’s immune system doesn’t have the nutritional building blocks. Dynamite S.O.D. contains the nutritional building blocks for Super Oxide Dismutase and other important anti-oxidants and immune enzymes. SOD can be taken daily (with food) for periods of time when you want to boost the minerals your immune system will be using most.

If you didn’t heed the pre-illness SOD tip above and you find yourself feeling a scratchy throat and aches, SOD is a great tool to support an immune system already under siege. Taking 1/2 teaspoon of Dynamite Solace in 8 ounces of distilled water, two or three times daily, can provide a boost to an already-sick body as well. For sore throats, gargle a mixture of water and Dynamite Trace Minerals Concentrate. Finally, make your own natural, homemade hand sanitizer by using a high-quality aloe vera gel and adding a few drops of Dynamite standardized Tea Tree Oil.

Also, don’t forget that sometimes getting sick is the only way our bodies know how to slow us down and force us to rest and be quiet. Use the remedies above as helpers but make sure you’re giving your body all the other things it needs (water, sleep, foundational nutrients, etc…) to get well.
