Some years ago a Japanese news channel featured a story about a
diabetic man whose foot was likely to be amputated. Gangrene had set
in. It looked awful. As he was a laborer, loss of his foot would
have meant joblessness.
Instead of amputating, the hospital soaked his foot in highly acidic
water. This is made by electrolysis, and is available in drug stores
in Japan, and can also be made at home using an "alkaline water
machine."
The man's foot was restored to normal within a week or so. Nothing
was done but to soak it for a time, then wrap it in sterile cloth.
Drinking the alkaline water throughout the day also helped to regulate
his insulin level, and dramatically reduced his need for injections.
The acidic water also worked wonders on bedsores of bedridden persons.
The machines are under $500 in Japan and are widely available. Some
can be found on sale for under $300.
I think there would be nothing to lose and much to gain by trying this
method.

My husband has such a wound on his toe, about the size of a nickel.
He is diabetic and only 45 y/o. We have tried Indie’s recommendation
with small improvement. I think the nasal spray is helping, although
we had to dilute the DMSO a lot. The infection seems to be gone at
this point, but the circulation to the toe is poor.
We will try this out, and we even have an oxygen machine in the
house! My only reservation is applying DMSO directly to the wound
because there is still some necrotic tissue there. He is getting it
debrided every week or two. The topical dressing that seems to work
best is glycerine and iodine.
Thank you Brooks, for this information. The doctors want to do bypass
surgery on my husband’s leg, and we would prefer not to go that route.

Subject: CS>Non-healing and Slow-healing skin surface ulcers
I noticed a passing inquiry/observation regarding non-healing
skin-surface
ulcers. A majority of of non-healing skin-surface ulcers have their
origin based upon
circulation compromises.....presenting especially in diabetics and
advanced cardiovascular insults. During the mid and late 1990s we
conducted some very promising
evaluations of these conditions and implemented....what proved to
be....some effective protocol addresses. Most challenging were the
non-healing ulcers affecting Type II diabetics.....and particularly
those presenting on the lower leg extremities and feet.
By far, the most effective protocol proved to be one involving
Colloidal Silver, DMSO and oxygen. Summarizing the protocol: The
"self-help" version of this experimental protocol consisted,
essentially, of a system for applying 100% oxygen as a surrounding
atmosphere of the general environment....after the generous
application of a DMSO X Colloidal Silver mixture. The actual procedure
is as follows: (The following procedure was designed for insults
presenting in all areas below the knee joint) 1. Performed a
preliminary application of undiluted, commercial, 3.5% hydrogen
peroxide; allowing approximately 3 minutes or until all foaming action
has ceased....followed by blotting with clean cotton swab/ball. 2.
Generous application of 20 ppm CS (75% by Volume) mixed
with full-strength DMSO (10% by Volume)....covering the entire insult
area to the point of surface runoff. Note: Be sure the entire
treatment field is completely clear of clothing and other
obstructions. 3. Next, carefully slip a small transparent garbage bag
over the lower leg (below the knee), avoiding physical contact with
the injured area and carefully gather the top of the bag just below
the knee joint. 4. Next, using any convenient source of pure oxygen,
with the end of the hose section terminating in a small plastic
tubing.....insert the tubing well inside the garbage bag and secure
the top of the bag with a rubber band. 4. Slowly inflate the bag with
O2, until the bag is well filled (it will easily inflate at low
pressure). Note: The actual pressure is not critical, just keep enough
pressure applied to prevent the collapse of the garbage bag. 5.
Maintain this arrangement for 15 to 20 minutes. Actually, we found
that the 02 leakage rates to be quite slow, ! usually allowing us to
cut off the pressure valve for extended periods (more than 5 minutes),
before the inflated bag became sufficiently deflated to require
additional pressure.
This simple protocol was most impressive in the positive results
yielded against some of the most intractable slow or non-healing
ulcers.....some of quite long-standing nature (over 6 months). In most
cases, twice-daily procedures resulted in size-increase stoppages
within 5 days and generation of new wound-edge granulation of tissue
beginning within 7 to 10 days. This, many times, in cases where the
ulcers had increased from "match-head" size to that of a silver
dollar....over a period of 6 months plus. In approximately 80% of
these cases, complete healing occurred within 4 to six
weeks-----usually depending upon the actual physical size of the > ulcer.
One of the most gratifying results was one case involving a Type II
diabetic who had an ulcer of over 2" in diameter and two years in
age...which had, progressively increased in size while, simultaneously
resisting ALL conventional treatments employed by the allopathic
community.
Some of the list members may be interested in evaluating this protocol
in their experimental researches. Please be advised that none of our
research protocols are intended as direct treatment for ANY existing
medical condition. We DO NOT PRACTICE MEDICINE....in any form.
