Terry et al: A possible explanation for the occurence of athletes foot under these circumstances can be derived from a principle of natural medicine. A phenomenon often called the "exteriorization" of symptoms/illness is quite often a byproduct of truly natural therapy, which seeks not to suppress a condition but to release it. One thing that is often affected is the acid/basic balance of the body when one undergoes any type of internal cleansing. Many people believe that fungal conditions thrive when the body becomes overly acidic.
In my own experience, I've seen lesions, rashes, immense swelling and severe ( albeit temporary ) flulike symptoms, depending on the initial conditions being addressed. Thankfully, these exteriorizations usually depart, never to return, upon successful treatment of the initial problem ( when they were never present to begin with ). For atheletes foot and other skin conditions of fungal origin, and for skin that for one reason or another becomes dry but not oily, I developed the following formula ingredients: I use biotone cream as a cream base, and dilute it about 100% - 300% sometimes more and sometimes less, depending on skin condition ) with colloidal silver ( I run long batches for external use to increase the amount of actual silver particle content ). I add various pure essential oils to the blend depending on the use. For athletes foot, I certainly include eucalyptus, and I use myrrh and frankincense in all blends. Tee trea essential oil is a fantastic addition, although both tee trea oil and eucalyptus oil can really only be used in extreme moderation for any part of the body BUT the feet. The idea is to create a cream that is extremely dilute and that doesn't sit on top of the skin. In order for a blend to be successful in my book, one applies the cream, waits about three minutes, and washes the hands in hot water. No cream should be sitting on the skin, and yet the soft fragrance of the essential oils should still be evident. Unfortunately, the cream works so well on severe athletes foot - providing extremely rapid relief - that I haven't been able to get anyone to keep applying it long enough to see if it would eradicate the condition completely. I don't believe per se that athletes foot can be CURED via external means alone, since I believe it is symptomatic of conditions in the body which must be remedied. ----- Original Message ----- From: "brooks bradley" <liat...@flash.net> To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2001 9:03 PM Subject: Re: CS>Athletes foot > Dear Terry, > While I have no useful address for your interesting > post.....relative to your liver cleansing experience; I do have a comment > that may prove of value for athlete's foot protocols.
