This week Aunt Bean took 1/2 teas Diamond G Forest Turpentine in a TBS of castor oil. One half hour later, took 5 chorella tablets to mop up and neutralize heavy metals as suggested on one site. Had no side effects except burping pine fragrance from 10 am to 6PM...nothing horrid , just little burps. In a few days will try upping to 3/4 teas and see if there is any bad effects at that dosage. Still using the formula for anti-aging on my face nearly every day: mix one teas. turpentine with 1/4 Cup castor oil. Put small amount on fingertip and gently smooth upward. My skin has improved in firmness and softer feeling doing this. Do not get near eyes or nostrils and do not cover the face...just let evaporate naturally. I love it. Blessings from Bean Acres
