Night sweats is caused by silica (silicon dioxide) deficiency. You can
get them from the health shop or chemist (drug store?) in either a
straight milligram dose or homeopathic 6x type tablet. Silica is one
of the essential 12 cellsalts needed for health and wellbeing
according to the cellsalt theory.
Silica also gets rid of underarm odour, tinnitus / ringing in the
ears, itchy eyes and nose, is good for cardiovascular health, hair and
nails, and arthritis and acidity.

Ken,

You did not give enough details for me to
ascertain this, but is your body, or any part thereof
consistently cold when you go to bed but warm later in
the night? I assume that you wouldn't be wrapping
blankets around yourself unless you were cold, and it
takes your body some time to warm up, after which you
feel hot. I would attribute this to poor circulation in
general. I wonder if you tried using a hot-water bottle
(which will cool off as your body warms) instead of so
many blankets it might improve the situation.

As for thinking about things keeping you awake, I
expect you are in a majority with that.

Night sweats can also be symptoms of other things, but I don't want to scare

Night sweats are fairly common, as I understand. I was told that it
was due to the mechanism that controls your body temperature, when you
are awake body temp is controlled more precisely than when you are
asleep. ( Anyone, is that correct?)

As to not going back to sleep, I take Melatonin prior to sleep and it
helps me. If I wake up at night, I take a Tums (calcium carbonate), and
find that it helps me go back to sleep. I used to have a severe problem
with insomnia, but this approach seems to have solved it.

Melatonin comes in either 3 mg or 300 ug, too much can make you drowsy
in the am. Experiment to determine your dosage.

There are numerous reasons for night sweats as well as hot flashes in the day
time.

Inositol will help any kind of hot spells.

It comes is chewable form also.

[censored]. Will inositol help night sweats secondary to tuberculosis??
No answer needed as question is rhetorical.

Now Jan Drew thinks she is qualified to give medical advice. Lord have

But will the inositol merely alleviate the *symptom* of night sweats
instead of addressing the cause? Does inositol cure cancer or HIV?
Oh, right, there's the Zapper for those problems...

Silicon dioxide is sand. Carole thinks eating sand will prevent night
sweats. This is not an unusual sort of thing for Carole to espouse.

No Dave, you have got that wrong -- as usual. Silica / silicon dioxide
is not sand but an essential mineral. People need mineral supplements
in the right format.

WHO FOOD ADDITIVES SERIES NO. 5
http://www.inchem.org/documents/jecfa/jecmono/v05je04.htm

If the WHO says that silica is good for chronic disease, why are you
so backward with your mentality on an essential nutrient?

If the human body is cremated what is left over apparently, is the
mineral components i.e., calcium, potassium, sodium, silica, iron and
magnesium. Minerals are essential for health of the organism or do you
think that minerals are irrelevant Dave?

From the exact report you cited:

"Very small amounts of silica are normally present in all body
tissues but there is no evidence that they play any physiological
role."

The claim that silica is "good for chronic disease" came from an
unpublished French manuscript dating from 1973, which was mentioned in the
literature survey section of the report. The report didn't attempt to
evaluate any of the literature mentioned in the survey section. So the WHO
didn't say that silica is good for chronic disease; they simply said that
someone else had said that silicon deficiency was associated with chronic
disease.

Basically all the report said was that silica is safe to use as a food
additive.

hmmm...no where in these 30+ year old diatribes do I see the words "necessary
for health" , nor that it is "good for chronic disease"

actually I read that they were documenting that it was "not dangerous" in
various animal models....this is different that documenting its efficacy..

in fact..since the majority of the "studies" were on rabbits..mice,,dogs and
other animals..the results cannot be extrapolated to man

also...if the "essential mineral" is excreted in the urine..it can't be too
essential..or it would have been absorbed...in essence,,this "cite" states that
silica is NOT dangerous because it is excreted in the urine..

well duh...so is an excess of any water soluble vitamin or mineral...

those who consume large quantities of Vit C WILL excrete in urine what the
body doesn't need...and it doesn't need huge quantities...a few fruits a day
can usually supply what we need (scurvy became a problem when sailors were at
sea for many months...without fresh fruit...unless you spend many months at
sea....just visit your local grocery store and buy some fruit....far better
than any supplement,,which we know is unregulated...

perhaps because "light salt" is actually mostly potassium,,,
surely the great "celtic sea salt" is sodium...might as well buy a 99 cent box
of regular Morton's salt...

Of course minerals are relevant. I even said so in a post yesterday.
However, silicon dioxide is not an essential mineral, even in trace
amounts. You'd be very healthy even if it were removed from your
diet. It's just sand, no matter what you think (this is an example of
your total lack of scientific knowledge really biting you).

No, that's not true. I recall reading in that report that chickens
denied silica in their diets developed stunted growth. Read it again.
