Most recently he had a large/painful one coming up and immediately smothered it in castor oil. Within two days it was gone.

Not only was the information on what you and your family took very valuable in itself, but I appreciate how you mention people shouldn't feel guilty for getting ill - regardless of what preventatives they may take. No one benefits from the shaming/blaming game. Thank you for the compassion you always show to others.

And I'm so very happy that your family is feeling better!

Take care,

Tessa (from cold Canada)

P.S. Also tried the borax remedy, topical and internally, but it only helped temporarily.

I also had bad skin issues and still have a couple, (vitlligo) but I was foot soaking a splinter with borax in water and a couple days later my friend said I looked ten years younger and I did. Well then I learned as time went on from reading here in earth clinic that for the borax to turn to boron you need to ingest it so the hydrochloric acid in your stomach transforms it. Now I get the full benefit.

Take it with chanca piedra to prevent calcium stones from causing pain in organs as they come out of soft tissues. Borax is wonderful for sorting things out. Other minerals are silica or horsetail helps body utilize calcium properly with vit D and K2 and magnesium and a full balance of minerals to prevent future suffering. Stay hydrated.

Blessings, Charity

Ps. Coconut oil is also amazing for skin and internal organs

That was in awesome family venture. I am so happy for you and your family.

To me one the biggest battles I see families facing since 2020 is a purposeful effect to help one another stay well.

I came to NC to help an elderly Aunt. It has been trying venture to me to get me well and keep her well. I know the Lord has help us.

I happy to say she got the first part of her COVID Vaccine shot. She wanted it so bad, she has Faith in it. So I am happy for her. She's a tuff cookie and still fussing.

Thank God for family and Caring neighbors, and for our EC family.

Please read this article:

Potassium iodide in dermatology: A 19th century drug for the 21st century?uses, pharmacology, adverse effects, and contraindications

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0190962200474220

My husband had something that was similar to Bechets or it could have been pyoderma gangrenosum. His skin blistered and started to ulcerate in spots, it was terrifying. I ran across this article and we started him on potassium iodide 1200 mg per day divided into 4 doses (300mg 4 times a day). Yes, you read that right, mg, not mcg. It immediately started healing his ulcerations which had been rapidly worsening. He took that dose for 2 weeks and then took one additional week to wean off. Highly recommended.

The dosing for Mucuna Pruriens(MP), like Levodopa, is very individualized and will vary considerably from person to person. People wonder what is the attraction of MP over prescription Levodopa/Carbidopa since MP has as one of its main components, Levodopa and the truth is that some people just prefer what they consider a more natural approach of using a natural plant over a prescription drug. While it is true that they both contain Levodopa, but Levodopa on its own can increase oxidative stress in the brain which can then increase neuroinflammation and in the long run this is likely to be counterproductive for people with Parkinson's (PwP) as they are already suffering with elevated oxidative stress levels and elevated neuroinflammation which have been shown to increase disease progression.

What MP has that makes it possibly more effective than Levodopa is other useful components which have shown the ability to lower oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. These other components include quercetin, Betulinic Acid, Ursolic Acid, CoQ-10, NADH and more which have shown the ability to lower oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. This is very important for PwP and Levodopa alone has none of these other attributes that MP has.

You may be wondering what MP can do compared to levodopa in PwP that is different. In PwP studies, MP can significantly reduce onset of action significantly which is important because many PwP complain that it can take an hour or more to take effect while MP takes effect significantly faster probably due to the other active components in it as mentioned above. That effect alone may make it worth it for some PwP to consider MP. Another benefit of MP over levodopa alone is increased "on time" of 21.9%! Levodopa is a single component prescription drug and can not offer these other benefits of MP! Increased "on time", equates to decreased "off time and what PwP wouldn't want that?

One study went so far as to suggest that MP, "protects or prevents the progression of the disease".

On a related note, I will be posting about this in more detail soon, here on EC! I am of the opinion that a combination of levodopa and MP maybe the best of both worlds as multiple Levodopa products also contain Carbidopa or Benserazide to control levodopa breakdown before it reaches the brain and I believe it also helps prevent conversion of levodopa to dopamine outside of the brain and this is very important because dopamine can not cross the blood brain barrier.
