Cure for Warts! The Banana Peel Home Remedy

My 7 year old had 4 plantar warts from our local pool where she swims twice a week and always wears deck shoes. I first tried the banana peel cure. She didn't mind it, I would cut small squares of banana peel put over the wart and cover with bandaids. Then I would make her wear socks to bed. I did this for several weeks. It did seem to moisten the warts, but often the peel slipped from the area where it should have been. Next I tried the ACV. I cut a cotton ball into quarters, soaked them in the ACV and then put it over the wart, covered it with bandaids and socks. I did this for about a week. She did not like this remedy as it was messy and smelly (according to her). So finally I tried the clear nail polish trick. I must say that the warts did start to turn brown right away with the banana cure and I used a Pumice stone to wear them down as often as I could, although she complained that it hurt. (I did find that some of the warts were growing bigger after the first 2 cures) I did the clear nail polish every couple of days for 2 weeks. Then I kind of ignored the wart problem as we have been really busy. Well last night, she came home from swimming and had a shower. I took the pumice stone to the warts (one had disappeared on its own) and the other 2 fell right out!! There is still a tiny one on her toe, but I do think it is almost gone. I did notice before her shower the warts were noticably smaller. I am so happy, thanks for the advice. If one thing does not work try another. We noticed the first wart when we were in Florida in November. It is now Feb, so it did take a while and a few different concoctions, but I am thrilled with the results. She is more upset that there are 2 small holes in her feet where the warts used to live then she ever was about having the warts in the first place!! The skin will grow back and we now know how to deal with these warts.

I'm glad that I found this site because I had used a wart treatment medicine (acidic gel) prescribed by the doctor for more than a month with no results. I used a small piece of banana peel, put it on the plantar wart for about 8 hours, washed it off, air dry, scraped it, put the wart treatment gel medicine, covered it with gauze. This was done every day. After using the banana peel method, the wart changed from a bump to a broad whitish bump which slowly flattened and the surface turned slightly' brown / black gradually. It also dried up and shrank a little bit. This combined method of using the banana peel and prescribed medicine was done for about 3 weeks. Finally the wart fell off. I was so happy. It took some time but worth it because the wart fell off without any pain.

I'm almost crying here. Thank you very much for your article /cures/gallstones. Here goes... And I'll be sure to let you know how it does.. Again, THANK YOU

Our 10 year old daughter had several warts around her foot and ankle, one quite large. We had tried loads of things without success. Saw your cure using banana peel and tried it. It took a couple of months (2-3) strapping on bit of banana peel over each wart every night but now all warts have completely disappeared. Thanks very much for tip.

I checked this site for cures for my 5yr old daughter's plantar wart and tried the banana peel remedy.Within 6 weeks, the wart fell off! Thank you!!

MY DAUGHTER HAD 40 TO 50 WARTS BETWEEN HER TWO HANDS. I TRIED EVERYTHING AND THEN READ ABOUT BANNANA SKINS. EVERYNIGHT I CUT BANNANA SKIN AND RUB AND PLACE IT ON HER HANDS AND WRAP A BANDAGE AROUND HER HANDS AND LEFT IT OVERNIGHT. AFTER ABOUT TWO WEEKS I NOTICED THEY GOT SMALLER AND CONTINUED WITH THE NIGHTLY RITUAL. THEY WERE COMPLETELY GONE WITHIN 6 WEEKS. I HAVE NOT LOOKED BACK AND MY DAUGHTER WHO IS 9 YEARS REGAINED HER CONFIDENCE.

Ted, thanks for your contribution but I cannot find where your recipe is cited for a common cold. If I recall you recommended 2 teaspoons sea salt to 1 liter of water with a whole lemon. Drink this down and hopefully cure your cold. Is this the correct recipe?

Thank you Earth Clinic, and all that have left testimonials about the banana peel cure. I developed what I thought was a callus on the bottom of my left foot, about two inches back from my little toe, right under the small bone that runs there.I used a solution to soften it, then sanded it, but to no avail. A friend suggested that it might be a planters wart. I had never heard of this, so I did some research and detirmend that it was a plantars wart, so the first thing I tried was an otc freez-off product, that did not work. I, being a firm beliver in natural cures, searched the web and found this site. One of the best days of my life!! I followed the advice of others, and tried the bannana peel treatment. AMAZING! I cut a small piece of green peel and taped to the wart on the evening of the first day. Not working the next day, I decide to leave it on for the day. That evening, I removed the peel and noticed that the skin around the wart was softening up, the wart appeared to be coming loose. I cleaned it up, then took a hot shower. I then redid the peel and tape before bed on the second night. The next mourning I removed the bandage, and to my suprise the wart was protruding above the skin line. I did not pick at it, deciding to let the peel continue to work its " magic". After a hot shower, I prepared to apply another piece of peel, but did not need to, the wart was gone!!!!!! In a span of less than 48 hours my wart was gone, and all that was left to do was sand down the caluse that had formed around the wart.To me this was a real life saver because I am a constuction worker, continually walking on freshly bulldozed ground that is a mess of broken ground and small rocks. The wart to me was near debilatating, causing my knee to buckle from the pain every time I steped on one of the rocks, which caused me to limp and focus on where my next step would land, averting my attention from what I was doing, not a good thing on a construction site. In closing, all I can say is that the bannana peel cure is the closet thing to a mirecal curs that I have ever witnessed, or been part of. It really works! Thank you all from the bottom of my foot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried the banana peel method for my 10 year old son's warts. There were about 40 of them particularly on his left hand -inc. two very large masses - he was having a really difficult time at school. We had tried all the usual standard treatments and were about to get them cut out and after only one week of using the peel every night they have gone!Swimming in a salt water pool seemed to quicken the effect. They didn't blacken that much - just shrank back with minimal scarring.Thank you so much to all who took the trouble to post your comments - it has been a true miracle for us.

Hi I am trying to find B3 Niacinamide (NON FLUSHING) but everything that I come across has Niacin instead of Niacinamide, but I did come across an item on ebay that is listed as Nicinamide 259mg x100 non flushing vitamin B3 NAD & NADP but then under the product description it says Vitamin B3 (Niacin). But the product description says Flush Free, Pharmaceutical Grade, Energy Production, and Dietary supplement. It also says Niacinamide is the form of niacin...Im extreamly confused on whether or not I should buy this product. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Hi Dan...Ted usually recommends between 10 mgs to 50 mgs of sodium molybdate crystals supplemented with water per day. As a precaution, you should take this remedy for two weeks only and then have a week off the protocol and continue it like that.

You may also have trouble purchasing sodium molybdate in powder form but the best place to get it is on ebay.com -- just type in "sodium molybdate" in the search box and you will find it.

If you have mycoplasma issues then supplementing Ted's Borax Water Protocol is also advised. More info on mycoplasma remedies here.

My son had a painful pea-sized Plantar Wart on the ball of his heel. Using the prescribed Salicylic Acid paste for 3 months achieved nothing at all. (My son, age 7, would not let us scrape the wart.) Visiting the doctor again, he said some patients suggested using banana peel under a bandage, changed daily, so we tried that. Within just 3 DAYS the wart dropped off! We are continuing treatment for another week or so to ensure no small pieces survive. This may not work for all warts, but I definitely recommend banana peel as a low-risk first treatment for any wart problem.

My mother once told me to warm up some bannas peels on some moles that were blocking my vision,so I did and soon forgot the about it, until one day some family member ask me, hey what happen to that mole that was blocking my vision, so I looked at our mirror and notice them gone!

I tried the banana peels on my wart at the base of my big toe and after 10 days it was GONE. I had the wart for about 2 months. After going to the doctors and having the callus scraped off I tried using Dr. Scholls medicated pads for about 6 weeks. It got to the point that it hurt to walk barefoot and with shoes on. I finally gave up and called a foot doctor to have them treat it. My appointment was to be 3 weeks later so I went to the web to see what I could find and found this site. I used a small peel at night under a band aid and with in a week the pain was gone and then the wart peeled off, with a little help. That was 3 weeks ago and it is still gone. I was so impressed that I tell everyone about it. GIVE IT A TRY IT REALLY WORKS!!!

Hi, my 11 year old son had a problem with alot of warts appearing on knees, hands, elbows you name it. we have tried having them burned off at dr. a 3 hundred dollar prescription. well i told him about the banana peels he tried them and it worked thanks so much for this web site he was insecure about the warts being around his friends thanks again.

#1 cure. My grandson, age 11, had about 20 warts on his abdomen. Some had been removed by his Doctor but was a painful experience. I recommended he tape a small piece of banana peel to each wart. He did. Within a week they were all gone! Thanks you Earth Clinic! #2 Cure At the very first sign of a cold or flu put 3 drops of Peroxide in one ear. Lie still for 20 minutes. Repeat in other ear. A miracle! Shirley J.

You shouldn't be surprised if a planter wart on your foot is taking long to fall off. The idea behind a banana peel is that the "good stuff" goes into the wart and kills the "bad stuff". Our skin has pores for such things to happen, how you think you got the warts in the first place? From the pores your blood circulation moves things around your body, i.e. the "good stuff" from the banana. All of us that walk have been walking for years, our feet havn't complained. Your soles of your feet become thick and strong against the ever abrasive flooring you walk upon. This isn't the best situation for your blood to circulate in. Give it some more time, or soak your feet in hot water to soften them up. Then put the banana peel. Your callused feet don't absorb things as fast as your softer hands or skin would.

I had this awful, HUGE. wart on my middle finger nuckle, and on my pinkie finger nuckle, an a couple on each thumb along with some on my pointer and middle fingers, and some just next to my fingernail 9at the tips of my finger so my nail would grow wierd) i tried some equate liquid wart remover, i also tried some freeze away stuff, neither of them worked. i tried duct tape for about a week, but that didnt work cuz the tape kept falling off. my mom had just scheduled a dermatologist appointment that was supposed to be about 2 months from now, but i was afraid of the pain, so i was surfing the internet and i found this website with the banana peel and i decided what the heck, u know? the only thing i have to lose is this nasty wart. so i tried it for about a week, about 7 or 8 hours a day, wile i was sleeping, i would wash it off it the shower, i noticed it started to turn black. so i figured that was a good sign. within a week it started to like, fall off, now its almost 3/4 gone!!! i'm so excited, i've had it for 6 years now, so you can imagine the relief i got when it started falling off. i can't wait until its completely gone.

Dental Toxicities http://www.parasitetesting.com/

Digestive health starts in the mouth: For many patients, dental and digestive health seem to go hand in hand. Currently there are a multitiude of procedures and materials that have been developed by the dental industry to promote dental health, not to mention to ward off infections and improve oral hygiene. Manufacturers of dental materials spare no effort to provide dentists with the widest array of amalgams, composites, sealants, varnishes, cements, adhesives, pastes, etc. We all know about mercury and heavy metal toxicity; see for example, Ziff (2002). What we did not know about is the involvement of dental sealants (liners in the causation of a newly discovered disorder called neurocutaneous syndrom (NCS) (Amin, 2003, 2004).

NCS is a disorder that degrades the skin (cutaneous tissue) and neurological system of patients who have been treated with sealants during filling or root canal procedures. Patients sensitive to sulfa are especially susceptible to experiencing the neurological and dermatological toxicity symptoms of NCS. Neurological symptoms include but are not limitited to pinprick and/or creeping, painful, and irritating movement sensations, often interpreted as loss of memory, and light sensitivity may also be experienced. The cutaneous aspects include the development of small itchy sores or inflamed, elevated, pimples that may eventually evolve into painful open lesions with a tendency to spread. General symptoms include compromised immune system, fatigue, and psychological trauma.

A complete description of NCS symptoms, the syndrome, compounding factors, and the toxic sealants, with case histories and treatment protocols, is given by Amin (2003, 2004) Dental practitioners should be aware of the adverse effects of using sealants, and employ this knowledge to safeguard the well being of their patiesnt.

In response to the banana peels, I don't know why they work exactly but they definitely work. My 4 year old son had a planters wart on the bottom of his foot and he was hobbling around on it. I came across this web site....,which is one of my favorite sites, and found the banana peel cure I didn't even put it on for the full seven days and the darn wart turned black and fell off. It was great. This remedy is now written down in my saved recipes. What a wonderful site and wonderful sharing of ways to keep your family happy and healthy!
