"The kids began to point out tricky stain challenges and praised my efforts when I conquered grass stain, motor oil, cranberry juice, and ketchup. As time went on, even dried blood, bubble gum, and ink were defeated in my home. Along with all this laundry bliss came the best parts: my blood pressure's actually down. I feel so much calmer, and I don't yell at the kids as much. And we're closer as a family and share our small frustrations with each other to help find solutions." Linda now teaches a class for pediatric nurses. The end of the lecture always contains her laundry tips." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"Cadmium sources include tap water, fungicides, marijuana, processed meat, rubber, seafood (cod, haddock, oyster, tuna), sewage, tobacco, colas (especially from vending machines), tools, welding material, evaporated milk, airborne industrial contaminants, batteries, instant coffee, incineration of tires/rubber/plastic, refined grains, soft water, galvanized pipes, dental alloys, candy, ceramics, electroplating, fertilizers, paints, motor oil, and motor exhaust." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"Use a good-quality castor oil (from the castor bean, not the motor oil; it's been used effectively for thousands of years) without additives or preservatives and saturate a piece of white, washed flannel, large enough to cover your abdomen. Place the saturated flannel across your abdomen, then cover with plastic wrap and an old towel. Place a heating pad on top of the towel and sit or lie down quietly for thirty minutes. Discard flannel and take a shower. If you have difficulty washing the castor oil from your skin, put baking soda on a wet washcloth, rub gently, and rinse." - Timothy Brantley, The Cure: Heal Your Body, Save Your Life (Get the book.)

"In what was labeled "The World's Largest Recycling Project," the Aurora store was built on a foundation made of recycled runway material from Denver's Stapleton Airport;55 it will also obtain energy from vegetable oil from the store's deli, and the used motor oil from the tire center will be used to help heat the store. Their "2007-generation" experimental trucks rely on streamlined design and reduced weight to help increase fuel efficiency, while maintaining the capability to transport the same amount of goods." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Used motor oil: Do not dump waste oil on the driveway, on the soil, into storm sewers, or down the drain or toilet. Used motor oil should be taken to an oil recycling center or to a gas station where it is collected, then taken to a reprocessing plant. Some communities have recycling programs for hazardous wastes like motor oil. Contact your county extension office for the location of oil collection sites in your area. Or call your local service station to find the nearest collection site, and be prepared to pay a small fee to drop off a few gallons of used oil." - Linda Mason Hunter, The Healthy Home: An Attic-to-Basement Guide to Toxin-Free Living (Get the book.)

"Motor Oil Recycle used motor oil at any gas station (some will charge, others will not) or at a dump that will accept it. Used oil contains toxics such as lead, chromium, cadmium, naphthalene, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and other dangerous chemicals. Less than 10 percent of the 200 million gallons of used motor oil drained from cars each year in the United States is recycled, even though it is a valuable resource that can be reused as fuel or re-refined as a lubricant." - Debra Lynn Dadd, Nontoxic, Natural and Earthwise (Get the book.)

"And all of a sudden "sucker Russ" comes by and hauls it away for nothing because I thought it was motor oil. If I thought it was something bad, would I spray it on my own farm where my family is, where I have my wife buried? Would any human being do that? I don't think so. I have a boy of 40 who's lived through this whole thing. I have another boy, 25, he was born, I believe, in '72. He lives here with me and I just, no matter how good or bad you are, you're not going to hurt your family. And I had no idea, absolutely no idea at all what was in it." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

"I have been told by more than one grandparent that motor oil can be used instead of fatback grease. However, turpentine and motor oil are toxic if consumed, so keep the remedies away from young kids, who have a greater tendency to put their fingers into their mouths. • There are a variety of oils that many families have reported to be effective. They appear to stimulate dilation (widening) of the blood vessels when rubbed into the skin and increase circulation in that part of the body. The aromas themselves act as a distraction and perhaps as a counterirritant to the pain." - Lillian Beard M.D., Linda Lee Small, Salt in Your Sock: and Other Tried-and-True Home Remedies (Get the book.)

"A good analogy would be driving your car when low on motor oil. You can get away with it for a period of time, although you will definitely cause wear and internal harm to your engine. If you continue to drive without the correct amount of motor oil, sooner or later you will stress your engine to the point of no return and it will break down permanently. ACTH, when used by the MS patient over a prolonged period, causes a steady deterioration of the adrenal cortex leading to the eventual collapse of the entire system and irreparable permanent disability.

"Much used motor oil is processed and reused as fuel in incinerators. EPA statistics show that only about 60 percent of all new motor oil sold can be accounted for later in the waste stream. One solution for recovering all waste oil is to provide a convenient collection place and then reuse the oil in municipal waste oil burners. Any town with a heated maintenance garage can offer this solution. Scrap Tires Over a billion scrap tires are stockpiled around the country. Landfilling is prohibited in many states because tires have a ten- Cities pay about 100 per pound to dispose of old tires." - H. Patricia Hynes, Earth Right (Get the book.)

"Alternatively, check if local household hazardous-waste collection programs—where you're supposed to take motor oil and batteries—accept expired medicines. • Pay attention to the information in the drug charts about safety while driving, piloting or working in dangerous places. • Alcohol, cocaine, marijuana or other mood-altering drugs, as well as tobacco— mixed with some drugs—can cause a life-threatening interaction, prevent your medicine from being effective or delay your return to health. Be sure that you avoid them during illness. • Some medications are subject to theft." - H. Winter Griffith, M.D., Complete Guide to Prescription and Nonprescription Drugs 2005 (Get the book.)
