A Treatis on
eliminating Formaldehyde from the Body, Workplace
and Home.
Formaldehyde itself
is a very active compound, Chemically. In Hospitals,
it has been used to preserve dead bodies of Mankind
and Animals for over a hundred years. It is used in
quite concentrated solution in water, and called
"Formalin". It cannot be stored in its pure state,
since it is a Gas. (boiling point -21 o C or -5.8 o
F)
For convenient use,
it often is changed to its polymeric forms which can
be decomposed back into single Formaldehyde
molecules while heating. A common compound of
Formaldehyde, "Formic Acid" (which is the oxidizing
product of Formaldehyde while exposed to air
(Oxygen) is Acidic in nature, and is generally the
compound used in the Workplace, Mobil and
Manufactured Homes, Carpeting, the Lumber industry,
and the Clothing industry. (sizing contains this
acid compound).
While Formic acid is
Acid, and Ammonia is Basic (mildly basic), Ammonia
can react with Formaldehyde to form another basic
compound, a harmless imine, with the by product of
Water.
Both the Formaldehyde
and Ammonia compounds are very similar in
Chemistry.
The Chemical Equation
is as follows:

The Formaldehyde
Molecule's Molecular Formula is CH20, while its
structural formula is:

Therefore, to ELIMINATE Formaldehyde from the
Workplace, Home, Lumber (Plywood, Laminates,
Carpeting, etc.) it is a simple Process to place, in
an enclosed area with the Formic Acid saturated item
or location, an open bowl of Lemon Scented Ammonia
(easily purchased at any Grocer's) and enclose this
bowl with the item for approximately 3 days by which
time, BOTH the Formaldehyde AND the Ammonia will
have Disappeared, being both neutralized via the
process of Oxidation and Acid/Base reaction, and
decomposed into their By-Products, which are, again,
a harmless Imine , losing Water.
Homeopathically, Formic
Acid (Formaldehyde) can be eliminated from the body
proving it by exposure (inhalation or contact) via
two separate methods. Since the antagonist of
Formaldehyde is Ammonia, then, if inhalation occurs,
as in shopping in a location which contains new
Carpeting, Plywood, Lumber, Laminates, etc., New
Clothing, Textiles, or looking at, living in, or
selling Manufactured homes, (at which it would be
impossible or impractable for the exposee to
eliminate by the methods listed above the source of
the Formaldehyde), it is a simple process for the
potential exposee to carry with them a simple
Ammonia inhaler, easily purchased at any Drug Store,
and, after the exposure is over, to go outside into
fresh air (oxidizing agent) and to apply the
inhaler, then take several deep, clean breaths of
fresh air following that inhalation. The drinking of
freshly squeezed Lime juice, or the eating of a
fresh lime will also act Homeopathically as an
antagonist of Formaldehyde (like cures like), as
listed below, it contains minute quantities of
Formic acid.
The Homeopathic
method of eliminating Formaldehyde reaction
following exposure to this Compound, is to take
Ammonium carbonicum in a 6C potency, repetition as
symptoms dictate.
Symptoms of
Formaldehyde poisoning or "Proving" are as follows:
- Mind;
Forgetfulness. Anxiety, Unconsciousness
- Head; Coryza,
eyes water, Vertigo
- Mouth; Ptyalism,
thick saliva; loss of taste
- Stomach; Food
feels as if it were a ball in stomach. Burning
in mouth and stomach.
- Abdomen; Intense
urging to stool, watery stool.
- Urinary: Anuria,
albuminous urine
- Respiratory:
Dyspnea, Laryngismus stridulus, Whooping cough
- Fever; Chills in
forenoon, followed by long fever. Bones ache
during whole paroxysm. During fever, forgets
where he was.
- Skin:
leather-like, deeply wrinkled face, scales.
(Marlboro Man syndrome) Eczema in neighborhood
of wound. Damp sweat most marked on right upper
extremities.
Generalities: Cancer
*Some animals and
plants contain Formaldehyde derivatives, mostly
beneficial. Ant venom contains Formic acid, and the
fresh juice of Limes does also. Formic acid in
minute quantity is a necessary nutrient beneficial
to the health of a Human. A Formic acid deficiency
is one of the causations of Cancer. Those Persons
living in Regions where the eating of live ants and
ant grubs, and lots of Lime juice laden foods have
been proven to be cancer-free.
The reasoning behind
the treatment of carpeting, textiles, etc., with
Formaldehyde, is to eliminate MOLD. Formaldehyde is
the greatest antagonist of MOLD that there is.
An excellent treatment for a Moldy basement would be
an open dish of Formaldehyde left in place in an
enclosed room or building that is moldy, aired out
after the proscribed time, and then the
abovementioned Ammonia treatment for another 3 days.
NO Mold or active spores will remain on the
premises.
Dictionary:
- Coryza: acute
Rhinitis (inflammation of the mucous membranes
of the nose.
- Ptyalism: an
excessive secretion of saliva
- Anuria: absence
of Urine formation
-
Albuminous
urine: indicating the presence of protein in the
urine, showing the breakdown of the liver or
kidney care, a malfunctioning of excretory
glands.
-
Dyspnea: shortness or difficulty in taking a
breath.
- Laryngismus
stridulus: a spasmodic closing of the throat,
making inspiration impossible.
- Eczema; an acute inflammation of the skin
