Hydrogen Peroxide

I had a plantar wart on my clavicle. Never had one before. Waited three weeks for it to heal on its own. Then I placed on it cotton soaked with hydrogen peroxide twice a day, in the morning and in the evening. Kept it there with masking tape. It healed in about 10 days.


Coconut Oil

Virgin coconut oil cured my plantar warts. I had some plantar warts on my foot for about a year, then I started rubbing coconut oil on my feet to help soften the skin and make walking more comfortable. After about 2 months of this, I was just starting to think of going to the doctor to have them removed (with much dread) when I noticed that the warts had shrunk. Then about 1-2 weeks later, the dead skin just peeled off like a callous, revealing soft healthy skin underneath. It wasn't an overnight cure, but the time was a small price to pay for not having them dug out! I know they were warts because they had the little black spots in them, they hurt or bled if scraped, and a couple of small ones had appeared elsewhere on my foot. I also use coconut oil in food preparation on a regular basis, as well as topically on all areas of the skin.

Hi Hollyhock! I did NOT apply to my eyeball. I had been periodically applying it to my face when it zeroed in on my eyes. Both the boney structure of the eye socket and jaw and the internals of my eyes. Or, mostly, my left eye.

Other notes:

I have also successfully slowed the process, considerably., in order to spend a month taking care of some business as a full-on, full-speed, full-body application makes for some pretty actively intense and "noticeable" changes in body function. Things like tremendous weakness in the legs and the work and some pretty wild changes in the eyes.

I won't go into the slowing process except to say this: I've been practicing inter-species communication which includes (obviously) my own perspective which brings with it, a...shall we say, strange brew of life that is a combination of both philosophical and physical discoveries. Not to mention some unclassifiable aspects of existence that I never would have even imagined, otherwise.

This new and constantly changing perspective has, in the nearly fully-physical aspect of this particular "leg" of my journey has turned both aspects of my perspective completely upside down. Primarily because slowing down the process was both rocky and tricky and didn't seem to be working very well, initially. And this is where the extra-mind-blowing weirdness is.

All of that changed when I injected inter-species communication to the process. First, using direct communication in a plea for assistance with "The Fam", which stands for "the folks around me" as well as "The Fae" - I.e. "The folks around everyone", so, basically, the whole of those...shall we say...on the other side of "the bridge" that are focused on the human experience. Which is actually a quite small group, requiring a new and much more densely populated "set" I've just decided to call "The Fab", meaning "The Folks Across the Bridge" or, "The Fab" - that is focused on the physical and philosophical aspects of human existence. Which would be all points of consciousness with interests in all aspects of what I'm doing. From those with interests focused on both the physicality and philosophy to those with interests in aspects of being human I've never even imagined before - I.e. the whole of the "unknown" and ALL of their interests in the human experience. Including one particular idea of my own which is that the body, in and of itself, is its own entity and totally worthy of the same regards as anyone else. Hence, that would be the inter-species communication aspect of how I've slowed things down - communication with respect to the body as its own "person". That's what worked and arranged a half-repaired physical body into a body I could use in a more normal manner.

Currently, I'm wondering about how I, mySELF, want to proceed - with regard to the tiny part I, mySELF, am playing - in this fantastical adventure. So, that's where I am at the moment. Well, there's that AND all of the "human" business to which I must attend over the next few weeks. Which should be extra interesting with my newly upsidedownerized perspective on things!

It would seem the activity has moved again - back to the left eye socket and jaw where some work seemed to be done earlier and deeper into the right hip.

I didn't notice activity in my left knee but it seems to have been..."loosened up". My left was my "good" knee so it will be interesting to see what it does with my right one - which has always been my "bad" knee. Although it feels pretty loose, at the moment, with very little "crackling" and "popping" when I bend it.

Face has also been a bit swollen on the left side for 3 or 4 days...thought it was my imagination but definitely swollen today as things are going on in there...interesting. Eyesight still improving.

Many short spurts of napping. In the past 48 hours, I've probably slept about 20 of them, ranging from 15-20 minutes to 6.5 hours. Seems to be related to hydrating and which side I'm sleeping on. Nodding off so, going to bed. 9pm

Okay, midnight, had a little mid-post nap of 3 hours. A little wobbly in the right leg and hip upon waking, eyes gooey, nose running, throat's a little sore, right arm and hand are a little bit asleep though I slept on my left side to not put pressure on my right hip. Sore throat and runny nose over about quarter past.

Half dropper cayenne, half dropper comfrey. Water.

12:40 Upper right arm and wrist coming on a bit sore - seemingly nerve related, intermittent chills, little headache from above right brow ridge.

1am Neck a little stiff on the right side and upper arm and wrist quite uncomfortable, slight earache in right ear...briefly and gone, headache gone but a little sore below right brow ridge - right eye uncomfortable and vision a bit wobbly. Stiff neck gone but upper arm still uncomfortable.

1:15 Band of chills around shoulders and chest and down the back to the waist (?). "Pop" from motionless right shoulder (?) and slight discomfort in left elbow (?).

Too many sensations to name, fading to just chills. 1:40 - profound sleepiness, chills fading as well. Going back to bed.


Banana Peel
Posted by Jason (Hessmer la) on 05/31/2025

Are you putting the banana peel with the inside of the banana peel facing the skin or the outside of the banana peel facing the skin

EC: Inside.


Banana Peel
Posted by Jaci (AZ) on 08/25/2024

Do I use the inside of the peel, green banana, fully ripe? This one seems deep, came alive when I pulled some out. Thank you!


Banana Peel
Posted by Roy (Atlanta, GA) on 08/21/2021

The information provided on your site is unclear as to whether ripe or lesser ripe banana peel works best for warts.

EC: Ripe... as in not too green and not too ripe is best.

Hi Al

I got rid of all my warts and they never came back. Apply Duck Tape.

It smothers them. It really works.

Whoa! That suggests it's actually a parasite of some kind - very interesting!


Tagamet or Evening Primrose Oil
Posted by Gueva (19006) on 02/01/2016

My eldest son had golfball sized wart cluster on his heel x yrs which MD said he would not remove surgically as that would immobilize him for 6 mos. We had tried Apple Cider Vinegar + duct tape with limited success. MD recommended Tagamet 500 mg twice daily. in 4 days the warts were completely gone and have not returned in six years. My son stopped the Tagamet once the warts were gone.

Younger son has found that 500mg/day of Evening Primrose oil immediately stops warts once they start. He tried Tagamet but had an adverse reaction to it.

Hope one of these is helpful!


Coconut Oil

I also was using Coconut oil on my plantar wart, and it helped make it smaller. Before that I used the tea tree oil and duct tape method. This helped remove some of the skin above the wart. After the coconut oil the wart rose to the surface. I left the tape off and applied nothing topically because it hurt. Bad mistake. Airing it out caused the wart to get bigger. It also inflammed the surrounding area. Now I am trying the ACV on cotton with duct tape on top. I'll update later.

Cindy, are you saying you applied the ointment to your eye? I'm a little confused. Did you take eyebright internally? Thanks.


Coconut Oil

Just came from the Coconut Oil central Site and thought I'd relay an experience I had when I broke my foot. I only have a shower so I washed my foot with coconut oil until I was able to get in the shower without my cast and all of my plantar warts on that foot went away. OLD warts, like I'd had them for 40 years - since I was pregnant with my daughter. I thought the cast had cut off their air supply but now I understand it was the coconut oil that I didn't even use everyday. I only washed that foot every few days until I was able to get in the shower without my cast.

That was something like 3 years ago and no the warts are back so I'm going to be washing my feet everyday with coconut oil and do nothing else to see what happens.


Lugol's Iodine
Posted by Bonnie (Ontario) on 01/03/2023

Haven't got the lugols iodine as suggested for plantar warts but I do have nascent iodine. Think it would work? TIA, BONNIE


Tea Tree and Frankincense Essential Oil
Posted by Al (BC, Canada) on 04/18/2023

I will definitely be trying this as soon as I get home from a road trip but will add a drop of Lugols when I can get some. I have plantar warts on both feet - dozens of the little monsters! Also have flat warts on my hands and head. More and more every year, and absolutely NOTHING works. Even if I completely cut them off and gouge them out and then apply remedies, they grow back within a day or two.

Your post has given me some hope that I may yet be Rod of them. Thank you.


Apple Cider Vinegar
Posted by Allisonxo (Qld) on 12/13/2016

Can someone help me! I have plantars warts on my foot and it's underneath my pinkie toe and the one next to it! I have been doing the ACV and duct tape for two days and the wart is still hard and I'm in a lot of pain?! Is this meant to be happening? And since I'm having this stinging pain should I carry on the process?
