Absorbine Jr. for Athlete's Foot

ABSORBINE JR. for ATHLETE'S FOOT

At the turn of the 1900, athlete's foot was becoming an epidemic. Manufacturers of popular remedies gave ringworm of the foot the name ‘athlete's foot' and this was adopted by the public, but in medicine the infection was known as tinea pedis. It was seen as new disease, or in modern parlance an emerging infection, having been first described by Arthur Whitfield, a dermatologist at King's College Hospital, London in 1908. Nonetheless, it was in the United States, British Isles and England that tinea pedis became an epidemic, seemingly spread by modern lifestyles and hygiene practices, and encouraged by modern socks and shoes, which made infection liable to chronicity by keeping the feet moist and warm. It is perhaps surprising, given the unhygienic conditions of previous centuries and the ubiquity of ringworm of the scalp, that the feet of Europeans and Americans had been seemingly free of ringworm infection until the mid-twentieth century. Nonetheless, there was a clear understanding in the inter-war years that tinea pedis was new disease and one linked to modernity. One consequence of the growth of medical attention to tinea pedis was the stimulus it gave to the specialism of medical mycology, with investment in diagnostic services, research on the conditions in which mycoses spread and their treatment. In turn, this led to the creation of a cadre of medical mycologists, who identified more fungal infections in specific social groups and the general population.

Doctors prescribed a variety of remedies for tinea pedis (athlete's foot), but because of mixed results, their advice was mainly that prevention was better than cure. Thus, anyone visiting a swimming baths and showering in public facilities was told to disinfect their feet where possible, to avoid walking on floors in bare feet, to dry their feet and toes after bathing, never to share towels or clothing, and to wash socks at high temperatures. The main remedies were topical antifungal creams. The standbys were Whitfield's ointment (the active ingredients were 5% salicylic acid and 3% benzoic acid in petroleum jelly) and Castellani's carbol-fuchsin paint. However, the variable presentation of the condition and its tendency to chronicity encouraged innovations, both in combinations of remedies and new chemicals. There were many complaints of overtreatment.

Proprietary medical companies, which already had a significance market with topical antiseptic remedies, seized on the new epidemic, producing new products and re-branding older ones as having anti-fungal as well as anti-bacterial properties. The most prominently advertised remedy in newspapers and magazines was a derivative of a veterinary liniment – ‘Absorbine Jr.', marketed by W. F. Young, Inc. Infact, if you are as old is I am. Absorbine Jr. use to come in a slim glass bottle and the label stated it was good for athlete's foot. In 1955, Absorbine Jr. was tested against athlete's foot fungus and FOUND TO KILL 100% OF ALL FUNGI IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES.

HISTORY.

In 1892, Wilbur F. Young and Mary Young went to work on a liniment made of essential oils and herbs, Absorbine Veterinary Liniment proved highly effective at bringing relief to weary or lame work horses as a humane, natural herbal remedy to relieve overworked and lame horses. The liniment was soon widely used in farms nationwide for natural and quick animal pain relief. But farmers soon discovered that it relieved their own muscle and joint pain.

It's anti-septic properties were applied to horse and animals to helps prevent hoof and sole/foot fungal infections.

Hoof Disinfectant: The formula penetrates into the porous hoof sole and frog to disinfect. Apply once a week or more to help prevent bacterial and fungal infections. Use daily to treat hoof conditions such as abscesses, cracks, delamination, Thrush (Candida/Yeast) and White Line Disease (Fungal and bacterial invasion colonize and digest the inner hoof wall layers). This means it would be good for human feet and toe nail fungus as well.

Skin Infections: Absorbine Jr. kills germs on contact and stops the itch in seconds. Use to clean and treat bacterial and fungal skin infections like;

Rain Rot (Rain rot in horses is caused by the bacterium Dermatophilus congolensis, which activates when prolonged moisture and high humidity break down the skin's protective barrier),

Scratches,

Summer Itch (caused by an allergic reaction to the saliva of biting insects, primarily Culicoides midges. Other biting flies like black flies, stable flies, and mosquitoes can also trigger this seasonal skin reaction),

Tail Itch (A horse itching and rubbing its tail is usually caused by pinworms, sweet itch (insect allergies), or a dirty sheath or udder),

Apply to infected area three or more times a week.

I want to share my case studies I've done using Ivermectin vs Hulda Clarks Parasite Cleanse Formula (wormwood, clove, green walnut+thyme).

I believe Ivermectin is being advertised and claims are being exaggerated about it's effectiveness as a COMPLETE dewormer and here is why….

Case No. 1. James N. He is rcovering from brain tumor surgery and it's not going well. They are coming back. He wanted to do a parasite cleanes and wanted to try Ivermectin (horse paste bought from TSC). He took Ivermectin for 2 months (14 days on with 5 day break cycle). No noticeable parasites coming out in his stool and no real noticeable improvement in his condition. Then I suggested we move to Hulda Clarks parasite formula. I make my own but I also add thyme herb to the mixture because thyme has shown positive results with pork worms. We were doing Hulda Cancer protocol of 5ml parasite formula once per day for 21 days…

On the 4th day, he started expelled what looked like white garlic looking shavings in his stool (pieces of liver fluke worms). After the 21 days, he said he could feel it working and felt better and wants to repeat cleanse again.

DISCUSSION: Why weren't these worms expelled during the time he was now ivermectin…? I don't think it doing what you think it's doing…

Case No. 2. Mr. B. He wanted to do a parasite cleanse. He took ivermectin tablets 3mg daily for 2 months. Again, no real noticeable difference. He then wanted to try Hulda formula and after completing one cycle (14 days on with 5 day break), I called him to ask how things were going? He said he was very surprised as to WHAT CAME OUT… I asked him to explain.

He said he saw pieces of liver flukes, a 2 inch long round worm, pinworms.

DISCUSSION: Again, why weren't these worms expelled during the time he was now ivermectin…?

  Re: Borax for Candida/ Cancer Protocol

Posted by neco (Austria) on 07/26/2026

Summary
Borax consists of 11.3% boron by weight. Boron is a trace element. Borax is an inexpensive and natural way to obtain boron. The confusion between boron and boron is the error that invalidates most recommendations for boron intake and on which even official guidelines are based.

A researcher publishing under the pseudonym "Curious Outlier" calculated the positive animal doses using the FDA's standard conversion method from animal to human values. The relevant range for humans was between 9.6 and 113.5 mg of boron per day, with a median value of approximately 51 mg. This calculation had not been published for five decades.

The upper limit of 20 mg is based on reproductive toxicity in rats, divided by a safety margin of approximately 100. A brand-new drug with unknown risks receives a safety margin of 10. A mineral that humanity has ingested since time immemorial has been treated with less confidence than an unproven drug.

• By common toxicity criteria, borax is safer than table salt. A study of 784 accidental human poisonings with 10 to 88 grams of boric acid found no fatalities and no symptoms in 88 percent of cases.

Australia declared boron toxic at any concentration. The EU labeled it with a skull and crossbones symbol in 2010. The pattern resembles the burial of iodine, magnesium, vitamin K2, and vitamin D, and the temporal correlation suggests coordination rather than coincidence.

The commonly stated 3 mg is a lower limit disguised as a recommendation, not a therapeutic dose. The correct dosage, the conversion of borax to boron, the intake schedule and the mixture I use myself are described in detail in the "Dosage" section at the end.

IT didn't help the tremor as they said it would and they didn't tell me that Botox is Botulism - a toxin. I have had kjproblems with swallowing and dry mouth after. And then I had three bumps that I thought were Scabies. I tried Ivermectin but they only got worse. Back to the doctor and it turns out that they were not Scabies but Prurigo Nodularis.

  Garlic Cloves and Antibiotic Side Effects

Hi Tracy,

For the perturbed gastrointestinal tract, I have had good luck with ginger root powder capsules to calm the gastrointestinal tract, such as these :

https://www.amazon.com/Ginger-Root-550mg-Capsules-Pack/dp/B002LIGSI2/ref=sr_1_39?crid=2RS6CTBDO37N0&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CzZoaE3HWY39yS3zwddebOz9DRfrDSg4QLIEh4d-Bbn9XnYbA2D0-y1AK65UDe9ajcBsuz1bmWLEEu8V3ajOmrR_Nx34Q0Gn0b74QeFBn3Un1ZjKtApOH9Yz9Evg7vOOmcyhYc-ouVGfTXnzojmVKiZK9a5CMHv9AJ5P4EPRNSiXdIpRlZEf0DHyJW_mmDbaAbH82BNW2forDpu77f7wAiC95SDzCsXcb_lI60ynZjqfylMedSumcEamwGvkIHO8QL4H_THakpQ4Zdzmx7gzlGrhvQCzem373ZGoj47qN6A.gnxF33eHEWICpvQtzFcJ7re8H2-kxD_IDderaKnrt9E&dib_tag=se&keywords=now+ginger+root+capsules&qid=1785039882&sprefix=now+ginger+root+capsules,aps,252&sr=8-39

For myself, I use 1 capsule, three to four times per day and I usually start to see significant improvement in three days as far as calming the gut down. Initially, I have also done 2 capsules with breakfast and two capsules with dinner until things calm down and then I switch to one capsule 3 or 4 times per day.

To try and improve the gut microbiome I have used inulin/FOS prebiotic fiber such as this one in the link below, at the label suggested dose range. I generally start at two grams mixed in a 500 ml bottle of water and very gradually work my way up to 10 grams. It feeds many healthful bacteria in the gut and increases short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production with the main three being butyrate, propionate and acetate with all three being good for gut repair and lowering inflammation levels. Rebuilding the gut microbiome can take many months. Here is a link to an inulin/FOS powder that I have used to good effect :

https://www.amazon.com/Micro-Ingredients-Water-Soluble-Prebiotic-Smoothies/dp/B074WKCPS4/ref=sr_1_5?crid=2QGIQEFX8FQUD&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.7XwkSGO3SSPJovahrWkOOpCoG2JN6FfaDBLqN_DrkI8xKyFHx0gKQlOrjULJryq0KJQ45qHHJ0njPV7SISDJvQt4nL1xZ1jCEDbCwwMPD22aZNi488J61701IhFWhY4XN_ZObbNx9pactXqFd91RrBjYk4FBnqRi4bemcB_kVj389p2iRIh4P4JJO6rdZdMLegwu_NlIdbdlAX9R8opUvnekp6ovZvgh_UM9zjrvQ9Uo4lIW9XIfzQpAqDyUG9XMxYq4ei62x6j3GysAuBvMXG3Ueo-yHvZKWz9tYuFvW8o.eEQVnr6paujT3uD7GheGslaE4QpLjORV0W1g827LkZI&dib_tag=se&keywords=Inulin+FOS+powder&qid=1785041049&sprefix=inulin+fos+powder,aps,215&sr=8-5&th=1

One warning with inulin/FOS, it can cause gas if you take too much too soon and that is why I start low and slowly work my way up to the 10 grams to allow my gut and body to adjust to it.

Keep us posted on how you do with these two.

Widad~~ If you haven't yet looked up Borax for Arthritis, then you are in for a treat! If you are free from arthritic pain, then it is easier to deal with the Cortisone by itself. As usual, I would suggest titrating off of its use slowly until not needed, as you proceed with Borax. I personally believe that Borax baths are sufficient, as the skin absorbs it more gently than the digestive tract at even micro-doses. You will have to try for yourself your own situation. Best of Luck!

Rob~~ one more idea about the teeth & gums! I was in terrible pain for a year, assuaged only by warm salt water & hydrogen peroxide -- when I found the problem was the CITRIC ACID in my ginger-beer soda pop!!! I have since found it in several other foods, with always the same resultant pain. I have been completely without any tooth or gum pain since avoiding Citric Acid. And my dentist had been ready to pull out all of my teeth to stop the pain.

Antibiotic Side Effects -- Augmentin (Amoxicillin+)

Augmentin -- I was given this Amoxicillin antibiotic at a local hospital for a cat bite. Not only was it entirely ineffective for the ensuant cellulitis, but it then caused what appears to be permanent gut microbiome problems, specifically in the lower intestine / bowel. Diarhea, pain, & the relief only fasting can provide. There are doctors whom are aware of this "Side Effect" & whom wonder at the sanity of other doctors whom continue to prescribe it as Augmentin. First, my original cat bite problem was completely healed within a few days of eating 24 cloves of pickled garlic per day, 3x8. Several weeks of antibiotic had done little to nothing except harm my digestive tract. I should have turned to Earth Clinic first, rather than the hospital. Honestly, God only knows what would have happened to me had they admitted me, which they had wanted to do. Please do your level best to avoid doctors, hospitals, & Big Pharma medicine for the near future. Better healing methods, & natural methods are soon coming, with many suppressed patents being released, which the medical establishment could not tolerate for their effectiveness at healing people. Their "harm for money" approach will soon abruptly end. Any suggestions for how best to restore my microbiome, or anything else, is most welcome here. I also encourage everyone that healing is soon coming via top-notch frequency-healing devices, often referred to as Med Beds. Along the lines of Royal Rife & his devices.

Ivermectin. Go to a tropical diseases specialist. Africans are exposed to a LOT of parasites. BOT flies lay eggs in the scalp which turn into worms. You can hear them crawling in your head. Heard of s real case from an American. Wash and scrub your scalp vigorously w/dandruff shampoo and leave in for 30 plus minutes to weaken any crusts on the scalp, then rinse out & rub hard w/a towel. Sit in a chair and have someone w/tweezers look to see hard spots on your scalp. Peel off crust. If there is any Bot fly larvae a worm should come up for oxygen and you can pull it out.
What state are you in? I'll try to help you find a Dr. ask your mother or Grandmother or older African what Parasite detox they use. You definitely have parasites.look online for a test kit. Ask AI what kind of parasites these may be. Treat for Schistosomiatus First as this goes into feet when swimming in rivers. Common in Africa.

Castor Oil for Cellulitis

I went to Urgent care Wednesday for a painful rash on my shin, that ended up being Cellulitis. I started Cephalexin on Wednesday night. It's now Friday. The rash has continued to spread, and today I broke down crying 3 different times. I was at my breaking point due to the pressure, aching, and now extreme itching.

A post on here mentioned castor oil, and I thought "Omg, I use that stuff for everything, why didn't I try THAT?". I put on a thick coating and rubbed it in. Within 2 minutes, ALL of the pressure, aching & burning stopped completely. It is now about 2 hours later, and I have ZERO discomfort.

If someone could've made an animated cartoon of me putting the castor oil on my leg, you would've seen steam coming off of it! I seriously feel like someone poked a hole in it, and let all of the pressure out, like a pressure cooker! I am so grateful for this site. It has saved me so many times!

Apple Cider Vinegar for possible peptic ulcer

In my 20s, I was effectively treated for a peptic ulcer using a prescription drug. Now in my 60s, I recognized that familiar feeling again and this time, I browsed the Earth Clinic ulcer remedies. I had a small amount of ACV in the cabinet, so that is the remedy I tried. I took a straight sip, which was not enjoyable, but the pucker only lasts a few seconds and is followed by a welcome feeling of relief. For 4 mornings, I took that small sip before drinking my morning coffee (Yes, I should have laid off the coffee). I took another sip after dinner. I stopped taking supplements until day 3. I realized the burning sensation had ended after the completion of day 4's doses. For me, Apple Cider Vinegar gave a rapid cure.
