Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Hello Jeni, In clearing your ecezema I would reccomend doing a liver and gallbladder cleanse. I see you have made a great deal of dietary changes, but would like to add too still check labels for chemical additives and avoid them. Though the kidneys do have a role of removing toxins from our system, the liver is the main organ inside human body who's function is to process substances that are 'foreign' to our body and to make them " friendly " , when it is overloaded then we tend to have what is termed " allergies " . I have worked in the manufacturing field for nigh on twenty years, around chemicals etc, same with my mother, then tend to build up in our system. She worked in a glass factory and had a bout with break outs. Milk Thistle alone is a potent liver cleanser, this cleared hers up. I see where Doc has several cleanses listed. If you would like more information, feel free to email me.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Thanks, all! That's a great idea, Doc! Where can I get Papaya Skins? Would my local health food store (Whole Foods Market) carry them, or have they gotten too yuppie and prepackaged? Would one of the " ethnic " grocery stores have them? (I have plenty of Indian and Chinese grocery stores around me, and I'm sure I can hunt down a Japanese one or two and I've even heard we have a couple of Persian/Iranian stores as well.) Or is my best bet the internet? If the latter, any particular site? Thanks a bunch!!!

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I live on papaya these days, it is my favorite thing while I can get it. And we JUST got a Whole Foods Market (about 90 minutes from here) 9 days ago. It is a good thing. Flo - Dr. Ian Shillington That's a great idea, Doc! Where can I get Papaya Skins?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Aren't they great? Another hint is to take and save the seeds. Spread them out on a cookie pan/sheet and dry them under a fan on a table or in a dehydrator that does not go above 100* F. There is more enzymes in one dried papaya seed then there is in half a bottle of store bought enzyme capsules. Once dried, put these seeds in a pepper mill and grind them over your food each time you eat. Wow! But doing this gives you a mega Enzyme dose which is extremely awesome for the body. They actually taste like pepper and are delicious. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 ahhh, yes, and even kids like them in pretty pepper grinders. I like it sprinkled on everything, and if you mix the papaya corns (seeds with peppercorns, some persnickety folks never know. :-/ Flo - Dr. Ian Shillington Aren't they great?

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Question about using the papaya skins as a treatment for the ecezema, will this prevent it from reoccurring? Certainly love the idea of drying out the seeds and using them in place of pepper. I just started using Celtic sea salt. I love it already.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Dear Terra, The Papaya skins are excellent for Eczema, and will continue to clean it up for a long time, however this is only bandaid handling regardless of how effective it is for the short term (could be years). Most skin problems are as a result of Kidney and bowel debility. When the Kidneys are not operating at 100% efficiency, your body will use your skin as a back-up elimination organ to dispose of wastes. Same goes for a poisons in the bowel. This puts an unusual strain on the skin which then backs up and becomes toxic. It is this toxicity that perpetuates Eczema and many other skin conditions. Of course the Medico (who never goes to the "Cause" of the problem) contiues to issue his drugs which will mask the pimples, the boils, and the rashes by suppressing those symptoms, but then debilitate the Liver and the Kidneys even further, and thus exacerbating the problem even further. To look for a terminated handling of Eczema or any other skin condition, you want to use the Papaya skins in conjunction with doing a Total Body Cleanse which will go to the root of the problem = A toxic Bowel, Liver and Kidneys. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Thank you Doc for your response, that makes more sense too me now. The papaya gives one instant relief, but to clear the problem one would need to tend to the bowels and kidney's with proper cleansing. I do understand that skin problems are often indications of problems within the body not of the skin itself.
