Sure if you don't mind getting heavy metal poisoning.

Get something sensible - silver kills bacteria yes but it does so

because it is poison - to people and bacteria. I know sooooo many people

who are looking to homeopathy to try to get rid of all that toxic silver

they used wioth good intention and supposedly the best " quality " . Silver

is silver - it takes the place of lighter metals in chemical reactions -

has to, in order to kill bacteria - but your body is then STUCK with it.

I would think so too - our skin can absorb toxins very readily.

Our skins are porous. Tat is why the latest method of administering

drugs is in topical creams.

In fact the stomach can DE-toxify some things our skins can not

detoxify, by " digesting " them - chemically changing them.

Things we absorb through skin are even more capable of poisoning us if

anything - not less so.

I am ure Dr D knows that - it doesn't take too much moxy to figure that

out. Perhaps he was misquoted.

Yes it is a much more complicated question, but the main concern was

about lectins in foods. You aren't going to get enough of those

through the skin and to where they are going to do the type of damage

that we are concerned about with dietary lectins.

I also guarantee that there are a lot of other components in that

ester c that help it get absorbed. An example here:

Ingredients: Aqua (Water), Vitis vinifera (Grapeseed), Koshur

Vegetable Glycerin, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe) Leaf Juice, Propylene

Glycol, Coenzyme Q10, Lecithin, D-Alpha Tocotrenols, Vitamin-C-Ester,

DMAE, Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), Castor Oil, Methyl Parabens.

Magnesium is another example of a mineral that is absorbed through

the skin, epsom salts baths are another way to increase magnesium

without supplements. I was reading about that with my tendonitis.

It's improved greatly, no big relapse after finishing the bextra.

I'm taking ginger root twice a day, turmeric extract once a day, will

probably add a cayenne capsule once a day. I try to take a little

something through the day. Oh, I also added Deflect O, 2 a day, the

N-acetyl-glucosamine is helpful in that product. Haven't even used

the bromelain yet, but I may go ahead, I still get some stiffening by

evening, though full mobility in the morning. Someone told me that

bromelain might also help with regaining my sense of smell. I would

be getting double duty. Thanks every one here for the suggestions.

I still also have boswellia as a back up if there are recurrences too.

Sorry to veer off subject as I tend to do, but thanks.
