Guest guest Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Thank you for all your helpful responses. I really appreciate them and will take them all into consideration. But Lorne, can you elaborate on the use of "crystal"? I mean, is it a crystal itself? And how is it applied? Where do you purchase? Pardon my ignorance... Peace, Chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 I have had a foot odor problem for as long as I can remember and when you get to wife #3 complaining you can no longer write it off as nagging so I had to find a solution. About 1 year ago I started using a crystal as deodorant as I had always had reactions to commercial brands and I tried the crystal( a separate one of course)on my feet and have had spectacular results. Try it , I have suggested it to my friends and all have experienced similar results. Good luck, Lorne --- Tom Dooley <tomdooley55 wrote: > Hi, Chance, > > I have a similar situation.

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 Ack!! I know a GREAT and natural relief for foot odor, there's this plant that grows wild here in southern New Mexico and you just boil it in water in a pot that you'll never use for cooking again... then, when it cools, you soak your feet in it. Soak once a day for a week and even the nastiest odor is GONE! But I don't know the name of the plant!!! OK, I'll find out. I have a friend that knows the names of all the plants around here. I'll ask her this weekend. I've used it... as has my mother. (We even dabbed a bit in the underarm area. My sweat tends to get kind of potent...) A Native American friend told my Mom about it and our family has used it ever since. - Anna >******************************************************** > >Learn more about the way enzymes can change your life!

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 Just any kind of crystal? I don't know very much about crystals...though I did make straight As in college Geology and Physical Science, so I will try to understand them...Is there a usable crystal other than quartz, or is quartz the crystal of choice?

They're white, smaller than a tennis ball but bigger than a golf ball. They're supposed to be an alternative to using deodarant. (sp?) They're not really crystals in the usual sense of the word. - Anna >******************************************************** > >Learn more about the way enzymes can change your life!

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2003 Report Share Posted January 5, 2003 Chance, Foot odor can be helped by many of the suggestions that have been offered you. I especially agree with the antifungal properties of rubbing tea tree oil in between your toes on a regular basis. Wash good between your toes in shower, dry well, and always wear clean white cotton, hemp or wool socks. But another thing I really recommend is taking chlorophyl tablets/caps...it's the natural body deodorizer....great for feet, breath, underarm, just in general really....and its got many other excellent benefits, as well. Nothing like boosting your health and ridding your feet of smell at the same time. Namaste Brooke Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
