Re: Re: Skin Tags, Age Spots, Iodine

[Guest guest]

I put iodine on my left hand's age spots aka brown spots or aka liver spots every day for a week before something interrupted my practice and all (13) the spots got as thin as skin while the right hand spots remained thick and this is still the case 7-8 months later. I will resume and report on what happens.Sam GarzaFrom: Yochanan <yburkett@...>iodine Sent: Sun, November 15, 2009 7:02:37 AMSubject: Re: Skin Tags, Age Spots, Iodine

Some have successfully used iodine topically for this purpose. More effective are the escharotics, however. You can read about them on sites like www.altcancer. com. They usually contain zinc chloride and/or bloodroot; they sometimes contain iodine.

What would be a good topical iodine to use ThanksFrom: cheryl_b_1 <mossyforrest@...>iodine Sent: Mon, November 16, 2009 12:05:03 AMSubject: Re: Skin Tags, Age Spots, Iodine

I would say I am faithful in applying topical iodine. I get most of my iodine transdermally.

Age spots on my hands are gone. My arms had fairly bad freckles, various age spots. Most of the small freckles are gone. Some of the larger ones are much smaller.

I had 3 odd skin erutions at the base of my neck that are now gone. Those did the flaky thing. Kinda coming lose from the edges before falling off. I have had a few of those other places. These might be viral in nature, that is a guess, I dont know for sure and havent looked into it much yet.

Two spots on legs that are very slow in healing, but different than when I first started. Most spots on legs gone or fading. Big improvement in varicous veins.

I also dot it on the red bromide eruptions, at least I think that is what they are. I havent had very many of those, had only 1 prior to iodine.They do fade then go away. Slowly.

The iodine also seems to help scars.

I have had a few fairly weird eruptions since starting iodine. Small, similiar to a pox. Put iodine on them many times daily and they go away.

I would reccommend putting iodine on every bump or freckle or age spot or growth, basically anything that isnt skin or you can put it all over the skin.

Do you recommend the SSKI or Lugol's iodine? Does anyone use SSKI rather than Lugol's for their iodine needs? I was reading how a couple drops of SSKIcan be great for skin eruptions. (I personally have success with manuka oil for any andall skin issues.) But I like the idea of using iodine, cuz it seems then you're not justcovering up the issue (ie using chemical creams or surgery to remove, which takes careof the spot but not the underlying issue) but probably actually helping with a liver detox/purge.I'm very appreciative of this group's knowledge! Thanks very much.

How are applying the iodine? Do you use

something like a q-tip (I'd think you'd waste a lot that way though).

Joyce, I don't know the answer to that. I read in Mercola here:http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2009/10/06/signs-symptoms-and-solutions-for-poor-thyroid-function.aspxthat he suggests using SSKI iodine and not Lugol's. It confused me. I knowMercola is not the definite word on iodine, but he does mention Abraham and Brownsteinand seems to have at least a cursory knowledge of bromide toxicity, etc. The actual paragraph where he mentions this is below. When people posted

asking for further explanation, he just said he knows a lady doctor (I forgot her name) who says this and he agrees. Not exactly scientific. But, even so he can fear monger a bit, I do appreciate all the topicsMercola brings up, so I was hoping for clarification bysome of the experts on this board!! Mercola quote:Some patients also report that they respond better to food-based forms of iodine -- like seaweeds -- than the supplement forms. However, if

you are going to use a supplement I would strongly advise using supersaturated iodine (SSKI) which is available as an inexpensive prescription. Typically 1-3 drops a day are all that are required.Please avoid using Lugol’s solution or iodine, as that will actually worsen your thyroid condition.

Isn't lugols and SSKI the same thing? Joyce Simmerman

,

Thanks for all the good information.

Which one did you use, I went to the website, but wasn't sure which one to purchase. There was one with Iodine, black topical salve and another so I was unsure.

Also I see they have the iodine, but in different strengths. I am all new to using iodine so I am unsure what to buy.

Also when I have had CT scans with iodine I get an allergic reaction from it, is that a different type.

I do have a couple of age spots, not a lot, but a coule of my arm and I would like to get rid of them and I also have a couple of skin tags. I had them removed once before, and the Dr. just cut them off, it did not hurt and he didn't freeze anything. Those did not grow back and that was several years ago, but now I have a couple more.

ajd, The rusting to which you refer to is simply the accumulation of fungus. The brown spots are actually the tips of the fungus tentacles. You can't get rid of them unless you kill the fungus--a tall order. I got rid of a number of brown spots on my hands fairly easily using Cansema from www.altcancer.com. It was much moreeffective than iodine or MMS (sodium chlorite). What happens is that the Cansema (main ingredient: zinc chloride) dissolves the fungus, forming a scab. The scab falls off after about 10 days, after which a cavity remains where the fungus once resided. The cavity eventually fills up again and in 2-3 months, you never even knew a brown spot existed. from Israel>------------------------------------

I tried using the Cansema on a mole, and nothing happened.  How many times do you re-apply?  I just did it once for 24 hours.~WOn Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 1:12 PM, Yochanan <yburkett@...> wrote:

 

Hello Barbara, I had good success using the standard Cansema in the 105 gram size. I got rid of all my skin problems with it.

I would recommend purchasing their 15% Lugol's solution in the 8 oz. size.

In the CT scans, they may have been using the very dangerous radioactive iodine. Allergic reactions are also possible with the non-radioactive iodine; simply reduce your dosage as necessary.

When you used this on the scaly skin spots, how big of a hole did it

create? I have a few "age spots" and a couple of those scaly things on

my face and hands, which I believe, in my case anyway, are called

Seborrheic Keratoses.

I used black salve to remove a large flat mole on my back, and it left

a pretty deep crater. It did fill in fairly quickly, and the scar is

fading, but I wouldn't want to do this on my face.

Hello from Israel (and everyone else):

When I first posted the inquiry about "sun spots," aka age spots, liver spots, etc., I said sun spots because I noticed their appearance after using the tanning bed and after sunbathing in the pool.

Are you claiming these types of spots are from fungus?

Cheryl, The craters are what is left after the fungus dissolves. It is the space that was once occupied by the fungus. Your skin will fill in after a few weeks. Sometimes the scab will remain until all of the fungus is extracted, leaving smooth skin but discolored. The coloring returns after a couple of months or more. The latter case is more prevalent using the escharotic Sangre de Drago (Dragon's blood). Although Sangre de Drago is not normally used as an escharotic, I noticed that it does act as one, albeit more mild than the Cansema. There are also milder forms of Cansema containing aloe vera which act more slowly, but in doing so reduce the pain factor. from Israel>> Craters sound

On scaly skin spots, it can vary. Sometimes it is just in the surface of the skin and it is like a layer that peals off when you have sunburn. Other times it can go a little deeper which means that there was a lot more there than I thought. Many times it also can be a lot of very small pin size spots that turn white. You can get redness and some swelling but it goes away depending on how much bad area is actually under attack. It surprises me as to how much area is affected sometimes. As I said before, the black salve that I use I got from someone locally and I don't know if it is the same formula that Alpha Omega actually has now.

I've bought bloodroot with DSMO and it has worked well for moles and skin tags.
