My daugher cancelled his dermatologist appoinment. When she tried to explain the cure to the doctors office they hung up!"

[YEA]  03/01/2009: Paul from Sydney, NSW writes: "Banana Peel for Plantar Warts Worked! After two attempts with more persistence the second time - after being inspired by the testimonials here the Banana peel cure has worked a treat for me.

Initially, I was very excited to discover the Banana peel cure for Plantar warts that has seemed to have worked for so many. I'd had my first and only Plantar for about three months on the middle of the sole of my left foot. Previously I'd tried acid prescribed from my GP which hardened the skin - which i scraped with a scalpel but to no avail.

When i tried the Banana peel first - changing daily - i was on holidays and in the surf daily, and it didn't seem to work well.

On the second attempt, I was more persevering and instead of daily changed weekly using a combo of the duct tape. Also I ate more Bananas (about one a day) which I don't do previously as i wonder whether this may be part of the cure.

This is about my third week now and i must say no more pain. My food still looks a bit shabby with peeling skin etc but no pain or stony lump that characterized the wart. I'm confident its 98% cured. Will post again once its 100%.

Here's the method i followed:
1) Cut a small piece of fresh banana peel about 2cm square
2) Put it with the inside bit, the bit where the banana is, against my foot where the wart is/was
3) Rub it around a bit
4) Seal it to the sole of my foot with medical fabric tape (bandage-like duct tape)
(note i covered it with two pieces of tape broader than the peel so as to seal it - which was pretty much watertight)
5) Wait one week, remove clean, dry and repeat from 1)

[YEA]  02/21/2009: Jen from Breinigsville, PA writes: "My 4 year old son had huge compound warts on his hands and face for about two years. We were seeing a dermatologist for a year and a half. We tried freezing the warts three times, beetle juice three times, and beetle juice with acid one time. We also had an appointment to get lazer surgery on him. Everything the doctor did seemed to make them even worse. We found this website and decided to try the banana peel treatment. After about 2 months, ALL of his warts are gone. His thumb looks normal again (something I thought would never happen). It was painless and easy to do. Even his face warts are gone. They took a little longer though since we could not cover them with a peel and bandaid. We were only able to rub the peel on top of them. This has been a miracle!!! Please tell everyone you know to give it a try."

[YEA]  02/17/2009: Jason from Pasadena, California, USA writes: "Banana Peel for Wart Treatment: Using a cut portion of banana peel and applying on top of the existing wart with a piece of duct tape. Would apply it for a few hours and then remove. It's been slightly over two weeks now and the wart is continually getting smaller. I had tried previous laser treatment for it only to see it grow back. Anyone with a wart should definitely consider this."

[YEA]  02/17/2009: D from Los Angeles, CA writes: "Had plantar warts for 5 years I know how you guys feel. I first had them burned off with electricity. Came back burn it off again. Got bigger. Then went to another Dr and frozen it off turned all my skin black! After 3 weeks thought it was gone skin look all pink and smooth then 2 weeks later came back. Went to another Dr and froze it and used 80% acid then went back and froze it again then used acid. One day at work I google around to see other kinds of treatment and then found this site. I was sceptical but after all the reviews I decided to give it a tried. First night I taped a (ripe) yellow banana skin with duct tape and slept and kept it on all day and went to work. At night took it off my skin was black. I thought it was from the banana because it had turned black too. Did the same thing for 2 more nights. I decided to let it rest for 2 days. After the second day of resting the dead black skin started to fall off and I could see red pink skin underneath. After one more day I put another banana skin and taped it. At night the banana turned black but not my skin after the dead skin fell off. Right then I knew it wasn't the banana skin that made my skin turned black. It was the wart dying. Boy was I happy. I wish I knew about this treatment earlier and not spending all the time and money on the Dr not to mention the pain, time off from work, stress, and scared of going anywhere bare foot like swimming with friends. I want to thank God for letting me find this site."

[NAY]  02/11/2009: Katrina from Washington, DC/USA writes: "I have some flat warts on the back of my hand. I tried taping banana peel on it and sleeping with it for 7 days straight. The results are that the warts are still there. There are now more of them. On top of that, the area where the banana peel was now has some horrible eczema. I'm now treating the eczema, which I didn't have before, with aloe vera."

[YEA]  02/06/2009: Susan from Birmingham, Mi. USA writes: "Years ago, I had a very large wart on my thumb, by the nail. I actually thought it was a nasty cuticle, very rough and cabbage like. It was painful too. One day, I examined it under a magnifier and noticed black dots and realized it was a wart. I had read in a Dear Abby column that a good wart cure was to rub the inside of a banana peel on it. I bought a bunch of them and always had an empty peel on the kitchen counter. I rubbed the wet, inside part on the wart every time I passed the kitchen. I did that for a few days. Really very interesting that it wasn't a gradual thing, more like I looked at it one day and it was gone. It probably took 3 or 4 days. It really works."

[YEA]  02/05/2009: Annabelle from Christchurch, New Zealand writes: "Banana Skin Peel to cure Warts.

WOW, this worked for us and we proved the sceptics wrong (there were quite a few!) My son had two large painful warts on the bottom of his foot. I rubbed some banana skin on them most nights and often taped small squares of banana on them over night. The first time we did it he said that it was stinging and they started to turn black. After about 3 months they are completely gone with no scarring and other smaller ones that appeared have gone to. We often missed days and the taped on pieces frequently fell off in bed, I assume that this is why it took 3 months. If I have the need to use this remedy again I would tape them on all of the time and replace the banana skin every couple of days for quicker results."

[YEA]  01/29/2009: Erin from GF, North Dakota writes: "I just returned from the dermatologist who confirmed that my plantars warts are in fact healed. Every night after a shower I scrubbed my two toes with an emory board, rubbed banana peel into the warts, then applied the peel with athletic tape. Occasionally I would give my toes a break and would just apply tea tree oil to them after scrubbing. It worked and the warts healed from the inside. This was the only cure that worked for me even after I tried freezing them, duct tape, and apple cider vinegar. One thing to note, dispose of the used peels in a trash can with a lid. I ended up with a fruit fly infestation that took a few weeks to get rid of."

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED]  01/21/2009: Chase from Oklahoma City, Oklahom writes: "I had almost given up on my warts. I got them about 5 years ago, on my right hand, about 4 of them. The only one that really bothered me was this one on my first knuckle. It started out really small but grew and grew to about the size of a large pea. So after about 4 years I finally tried getting it frozen, which worked out HORRIBLY. The pain of it wasn't bad, it was just a really annoying, bothersome, pain. After getting it frozen 3 times, it would turn brown and fall off, only to come back bigger than before, and after my last treatment the wart recruited some back up, and now there are a few odd-shaped warts around the first one. So I really just gave up. I'm very self-concsious of them and it really depresses me. I have really close friends that see it and call it gross and stuff, in a joking manner, but they don't realize how much it really hurts my feelings. Anyway, my aunt who is a nurse, tells me to try this bannana peel thing, and I thought, "I'll try it but i doubt it will work". So first I googled the rememdy and found this site, and I'm very optimistic. I just started it today and its been about 6 hours and the warts are already turning a clear/white color, like their dying. I really hope this works as for me, it will be a HUGE self-esteem booster."

[YEA]  01/18/2009: Becky from Albemarle, NC writes: "My teenage son had warts around his nails and one on his wrist. I had read about the banana peel cure - didn't believe it would work, but thought we'd try anyway. We just put a piece of banana peel over the wart on his wrist and put a bandaid over it. He slept with it on for about a week or two. After 2 weeks, it was still there, so he stopped the treatment. Then, several months later, he casually mentioned the wart was gone. I could not believe it! In addition, the warts on his fingers have also disappeared - and we did not even treat them! He had had these warts for years! This is a miracle treatment!"

[YEA]  01/16/2009: Sridatta Chegu from Bangalore, India writes: "I have tried out the Banana Peel for wart, and it worked like a charm.

I had two warts one on my thumb, near the skin above the nail, another on my foot. Without actually knowing about them, I went to a dermatologist, who confirmed that they are warts. She burnt the wart on my foot, but, removing wart on thumb by burning might harm the nerves on my thumb, and suggested to take the salicylic acid treatment. No betterment for a month. When I searched google for wart cure, I found this remedy on first page. Though, I didnot believe at first, but, after reading so many testimonials, I tried out. 5th day, the wart is gone :)"

[YEA]  01/14/2009: Karina from Sydney, Australia writes: "I'm from Sydney, Australia. When I was younger my mother used banana peel on my wart that I had on my left hand. She would cut out a small square big enough to cover the entire wart and then placed a bandaid over it to keep it in place. We would change it half way through the day and before I went to bed at night. The results were FANTASTIC. I recommend it to anyone who is has a wart because it is also pain free. No one ever believes me that it works because most people think it's really funny to wear banana peel around-- but what works better than nature itself?

100% effective!"

The one on her finger came off in three days. The one on her toe, which had been there for several months came off in five days leaving a little sore indent where it had been. She has no pain at all. Amazing!"

[YEA]  11/23/2008: Rosey from Ridgevlle, IN, USA writes: "Had planters warts for 6 plus years. Had them cut out by family doctor, that did not work, tried every home remidy I found on this computer. Banana peels taped to them with furnace tape seems to have killed the little beggers. Banana peels for 5 days, to me is seems unreal, a miracle that my feet don't hurt seems they are just smoothing over. Have pictures if I could figure out how to get them to you."

[YEA]  11/06/2008: Sarah from Tampa, Florida writes: "I can't even tell you how much this works. I had warts on my fingers for 3+ years to which I saw many doctors who couldn't get rid of them. I was just shy of laser surgery when they realized they couldn't do it because my nails would never grow back. Finally, my dad told me to try the banana peel. One week later, they were all gone and I had over 10 of them. My doctors had done absolutely everything including the painful surgery and a skin cancer cream to keep them from spreading. I urge you to try it. Be vigilant in your efforts doing it every morning and night. I also had to file the wart down at each dressing, but I can't even explain to you how happy I am it worked."

[YEA]  11/03/2008: Suzanne from Westlake Village, California USA writes: "My husband is a doctor who tried 3 times to freeze the wart on the bottom of my foot. But it just made it bigger and more sore. In the past year I've used salicylic acid, burning and scraping to no avail. I've been in pain most of that time. Three days ago I read about the banana treatment. My husband laughed at me and said, "maybe you should try magnets, too." But I did it anyway. I used duct tape to hold the banana skin to my foot. In 24 hours that wart was dying. In 48 hours I was pain free. My foot is finally healing. I am so grateful. Even though my husband makes a living by burning warts off people, I told him it would be malpractice if he didn't recommend this treatment to his patients. It's easy and fast.

To the few people for whom this treatment didn't work, maybe what you have is not a wart. Have your doctor check to make sure it's not a mole or a cancerous skin patch."

[YEA]  10/26/2008: Shelly from Iowa, Iowa writes: "I found this website when looking for cures for my daugher's warts, she has several on her hand. We taped small pieces of banana peel to each wart every night and two are gone, two are getting much smaller, so I'm positive they will disappear. I can't remember how long it has taken, but I would guess at least 1 month. We would forget several nights too.

Also, I found the rememdy of ACV for toe fungus and have soaked my foot every nite for about 1 or 1-1/2 months. The toenail isn't completely grown out yet, but this new growth is looking very clear, so I think that worked and it will grow out clean.

Thank you for cheap and easy remedies."

[YEA]  10/16/2008: Robert from Bolingbrook, IL/United States writes: "My 5 year old daughter had a nasty cluster of 3 warts on top of her foot. We tried to freeze it off and it didn't work and only mad her cry with the pain that was associated with the procedure.

We were very reluctant to go the doctor because we knew that they would want to try to cut it out and to a 5 year old that was tramatic.

We happened to mention to our friends that she had some warts and they directed us to this website. We thought that we had nothing to lose but to try the banana peel treatment because it was only a harmless banana peel. So I cut up a banana about an inch by inch size and tape it onto the warts with some bandaides to keep it still. Note, before putting the banana peel on I would wipe another piece onto warts to try to saturate the area.

After the first night you could see that it started to work because it raised and soften the warts. We changed the banana peel the next day and by the time she was ready to go to bed one of the three warts fell out! We changed the peel that night and the remaining two warts came out but some partial of remaining so we did it one more night and everything was gone! Therefore, a total of 3 days and the warts were gone and my little girl did not have to do to the doctor and go through cutting them out. We did do additional follow up treatment for about a week or so and put some antibiotic oitment to heal void that the warts left behind.

Awesome, awesome way to get this warts out painless and fast! Just give it a try, its only a banana peel and it won't hurt you to try....you'll love the results!"

[YEA]  10/06/2008: Grace from Fort Worth, Texas writes: "So, call me a skeptic. I developed a plantar type wart on my thumb and a raised one pinkie which were both extremely irritating. I had tried OTC "freezing" at least three times, and the garlic method, which cleared up my son's warts, but neither worked. In fact, they made them worse!

Figuring, it couldn't hurt, I tried the banana peels. I cut a small square of the greenish part near the stem of the banana, and held it on with waterproof adhesive tape overnight. I removed it the next morning, and although they looked all waterlogged at that point, as the warts dried out I noticed that they had all these black spots.

I didn't use the bananas every day - - rather about 2 times a week at night, whenever I remembered (and had bananas!) After about 4 times of using the "treatment", the warts had turned nearly all black and were drying up. I filed them down, and used the banana again. As of this AM, the smaller one on my pinkie is gone and the one on my thumb is now smooth and flat, but still a little discolored. I figure another day or two, and it, too, will be completely gone.

Try it. You won't be disappointed!"

[YEA]  10/01/2008: Frustrated from Somewhere, Virginia writes: "We have battled a series of plantar warts on my daughters finger for about a year and a half; we had what was initially a single wart that subsequently progressed to a group of warts frozen off at a dermatologist's office four times. My daughter says this is very painful. I'm not really a believer in "old wives tails", however, someone in passing told us about the banana peel thing. We've taped a piece of the banana peel on the warts for three consecutive nights now and most of the wart is gone. There was marked improvement after the very first night; the next morning the wart had turned a blackish/brown. So I have to say, this method seems to work, so far...Even if it comes back partially, this method is certainly a lot less painful! "
