Re: What can cure MRSA? Is DMSO appropriate?

September 15, 2010

Oozing sores can be healed often by simply putting ordinary table sugar on them.

Honey works too. I do not know why. Only works on oozing sores though. I do

not know if would work on Staph. Could be that taking olive leaf extract orally

would kill staph if done regularly until it takes effect. Has to be on an empty

stomach or around 1/2 hr before meals. Has to be continued well beyond time

that it looks to be healed to be certain it is gone for good, no matter what is

used to kill it.

Colloidal silver and DMSO could be beneficial topically .

My daughter and 2 of her friends (all in their early 20's) have given each

other the staph infection known as MRSA on their skin, which is highly

contagious. It does not respond to hardly any antibiotics, and they'd rather not

use them anyway. They have used essential oils topically and drink colloidal

silver, but sores are very stubborn and can be fairly painful. Any

recommendations? Would DMSO be appropriate at all? Thanks for your

consideration!!

Tons of colloidal silver water drinking and spraying on the sores.

Here, from another yahoo group might help with MRSA:

Yes, MRSA is subject to colodial silver. I helped to CURE.. (yes erradicate the

MRSA completely from the blood and body tissue even when the doctors told the

man that " it might go into a remission state but that it would be present for

the rest of his life), MRSA with bentonite clay mixed with colodial silver

solution and taken by mouth, as well as being applied to the leisons... and

colodial silver solution added to the water bottle so that some amount was

ingested every time he took a drink of water.

From another source found in my files with no name:

Antiseptic Oil Mixture 2 is based on research of essential oils on two types of

antibiotic resistant bacteria--MRSA (methicillin-resistant S. Aureus) and VRE

(vancomycin-resistant enterococci). Tea tree oil was found the most powerful,

followed by lavender, peppermint and thyme oils (equally effective). This

mixture is half tea tree with 20% each peppermint and thyme and 10% lavender

oils. Appears very effective used in aromatherapy (see directions below)

against other bacteria and possibly viruses which may infect the sinuses and

lungs. Properly diluted, the mixture can be used in topicals. Ingredients:

Essential oils of tea tree, peppermint, thyme, and lavender.

Directions: Both of the antiseptic oil mixtures will irritate mucous membranes

and skin – handle with care. These mixtures cannot be applied directly to the

skin without proper dilution. The most convenient method to use essential oils

as aromatherapy is as a spray. Mix ¼ to ½ tsp of the essential oil mixture into

2 ounces of vodka. Alcohol is a good carrier for a spray, but plain water may

be used as well. Spritz a single spray into the air and inhale. Traditional

aromatherapy methods can also be used including EO dispensers, or just putting a

few drops on a cotton ball or in a cup of hot water and inhaling the vapors. A

¼ tsp or less can be simmered in a couple quarts of water in a pan on the stove

for a house-filling disinfection. 1 drop can be added to personal steam

misters, but this may be too strong. Decrease to half a drop in the reservoir

if it is too irritating by mixing well a drop in water into twice as much water

as needed and discarding half the water before use. A single drop can be mixed

well into a sinkful of warm water, adding a tablespoon of salt if desired, and

splashed up the nose as a nasal wash. A few drops can be added to humidifiers

as a most effective method, too. Some people even put essential oil mixtures in

ultrasonic humidifiers (1/8 tsp or so per tankful), even though the oils will

mar and eventually destroy the hard plastic parts. Antiseptic Oil Mixture 2 can

be taken internally in very small amounts, no more than one drop at a time mixed

in sufficient water or juice and stirred very well. Add 1/8 tsp to liquid soap

mixtures for washing hands, or mix in a sufficient amount of a carrier oil for

topical use.

From Dr. Amy Neuzil of Austin Texas:

Natural Treatment for MRSA Skin Infections

Dr. Amy Neuzil, ND

MRSA, or Methicillin Resistant Stapholoccocus Aureus is a strain of the common

Staph bacteria that has become resistant to almost every known pharmaceutical

antibiotic and it is one of the most threatening super-bugs creeping around

right now. It is important to know what you can do at home to protect you and

your family. Keep in mind that MRSA is very common, and up to one third of the

population could be silent carriers.

MRSA looks much the same as any other skin infection, at least at first.

Usually it will occur in a cut, scrape, scratch or pimple – especially in

children. Like any other infection, the skin around the wound will become red,

warm to the touch and swell slightly. If it is MRSA the area will commonly

develop into a boil or even an abscess and will last longer than normal, but

even that isn't proof that the infection is MRSA. The only way to tell if it is

MRSA initially is to have your doctor test the infected area before beginning

treatment. Testing generally takes about 48 hours to complete, although rapid

genetic testing is becoming more widely available in hospitals.

Skin infections, MRSA or not, are easy to treat at home using natural methods.

If you have a skin infection that doesn't respond quickly to those methods, or

if you see any sign that the infection is spreading, then see your doctor or go

to the hospital right away. If the infection spreads you could see fever,

general ill feelings, red streaks around the skin infection or the infection

area may seem to get larger. If MRSA infection spreads to the blood or internal

organs it can be life threatening so please don't take risks.

The great thing about this is that MRSA responds very well to natural

treatments, just like the regular Staph infection. It is important to start

treating s soon as you notice a wound becoming infected. Here are the steps you

can take:

1. Wash the area thoroughly with 3% hydrogen peroxide. This is inexpensive and

available in any drug or grocery store. Use a large amount straight out of the

bottle.

2. Soak a facecloth in hot water and place over the infected area for 30

seconds to a minute to soften any scabbing and allow the peroxide to penetrate.

Make sure this facecloth is then bleached or disposed of as it could pass on

infections.

3.

Re-wash the wound with the 3% hydrogen peroxide.

4.

Mix a thick paste of about a teaspoon of clay with water and 5-10 drops of

Grapefruit Seed Extract, which is a potent natural antibacterial. Both the

clay, which can be French green clay, bentonite or white clay; and the GSE are

available at natural health food stores. This clay should be about cookie-dough

texture when mixed.

5.

Apply a thick layer of the clay mixture over the wound, cover with gauze or a

large band-aid and leave for at least an hour or overnight. This mixture pulls

toxins, bacteria and fluids out of the area, which draws infection out of the

tissues. The clay may dry the skin around the infection, this is normal and not

harmful.

6.

Remove the clay pack with hot water and rinse again with hydrogen peroxide.

7.

Cover with a clean band-aid or bandage.

8.

Repeat the rinsing and clay pack every 12 hours until the infection disappears.

This should only take 24-36 hours.

9.

If the infection doesn't respond within 24 – 36 hours or if you start to see

more serious signs like fever, then see your doctor immediately.

From Natural News:

Wildflower Extracts Easily Kill MRSA Superbug

by Gutierrez

(NaturalNews) Extracts from two Eurasian wildflowers are highly effective at

killing the superbug methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA),

according to a study conducted by researchers at the Cork Institute of

Technology (CIT) in Ireland.

Researchers found that extracts from Inula helenium (commonly known as

elecampane, horse-heal or marchalan) eliminated 100 percent of MRSA colonies

upon exposure.

I. helenium and another wildflower, known as Pulsatilla vulgaris or pasque

flower, were tested against 300 different varieties of staphylococci bacteria,

including MRSA. P. vulgaris also proved " highly effective " against MRSA,

according to an article in the " Irish Examiner. "

MRSA is resistant to all first-line antibiotics, making it more likely that

staph infections caused by the bug will proceed for longer without treatment and

spread from the skin to other parts of the body. This makes MRSA correspondingly

more lethal than other staph infections. The increasing prevalence and lethality

of MRSA in hospitals, schools, prisons and other institutional settings across

the United States has made the superbug an issue of increasing concern for

health officials.

A recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association

found that MRSA infected nearly 100,000 people in the United States in 2005 and

killed 18,650 people. Roughly 16,000 people died from AIDS in the same year.

I. helenium is a bright yellow, tall perennial wildflower that grows throughout

central and southern Europe and throughout western and central Asia as far east

as the Himalayas. It blossoms in the late summer. P. vulgaris, a member of the

buttercup family, produces bell-shaped flowers in early spring. The wildflower

is found throughout western, central and southern Europe. Both flowers grow wild

in Ireland and Great Britain.

The research on the wildflower extracts was carried out by a postgraduate

student under the supervision of a CIT professor and a senior medical scientist

from the microbiology department of Cork University Hospital.

I hope the above would help your daughters and friends.

Hi Randy,

I know this is a little late but I remembered your request when I

received the latest newsletter by Dr. Carolyn Dean which you might

find of interest.
