Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Oh, okay, but only because it's short. Materials: One clove garlic, one band-aid. Procedure: At night, slice garlic, and slice it again to remove a thin cross-section (heretofore a " slab " ) of the garlic. Place carefully over wart (also works for skin tags). Band-aid in place. In the morning, remove and allow to air all day; at night, repeat the slabbing procedure. Result: The offending lump will fall off in anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks. It might bleed, but it won't hurt. Caveats: Lotion is not a bad idea as the garlic (but mostly the band-aids) might dry or irritate the skin in the area. Also, I found out the hard way that garlic is *very* detoxifying, so keep an eye out for commensurate effects in the area. (When I did this on my neck to get rid of a skin tag, I ended up with several " wens " or lumps in my neck, which are a result of toxins being released back into the bloodstream. Anyway, deep tissue repair oil got rid of 'em.) --Sara T. >Go for it, Sara! > > >> Anybody going to offer up the Garlic Slab Cure or should I? --Sara T. >> > > > > >Federal Law requires that we warn you of the following: >1.
