Guest guest Posted January 30, 2003 Report Share Posted January 30, 2003 Peppermint and nettle are also great for this problem. You might want to consider giving him a good EFA supplement (essential fatty acids) like UDOs.

We use a natural shampoo which contains tea tree oil and lavender oil. He also rinses with apple cider vinegar. Those are all supposed to be helpful in eliminating the problem but we have used them for a long time. What else could we look into?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 For this application use peppermint EO in the base shampoo (5 drops per 8 oz). Essential oils can be ordered in small glass dropper bottles. Please note this is just an external treatment to ease the symptoms of the real problem inside the body. Remember too that EOs are extremely potent and are usually not for internal use.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Janet - Thanks for this information. I was wondering about the EFA's - should I look for capsules or liquid?
