Maybe I'm wrong then. Maybe it's not scabies I'm thinking of. It's the condition when you have a lack of vitamin C. What the sailors used to get, which is why they called them "limies". Cuz they would eat limes to prevent that condition, whatever its called...

Shingles maybe???

Obviously I'm no doctor, lol! I just read a lot.

It's a myth that vitamin C cures scurvy.

Scurvy is caused by lack of amino acids in meat. Meat cures scurvy, and that's what the sailors eventually figured out.

Scurvy. That makes more sense! Yes, Vit C is absolutely amazing stuff though I find that ascorbic acid is not as good as Sodium ascorbate which is milder on the stomach.

Scurvy! Thats it, thank you!

I'll say this; if I ever get diagnosed with ANYTHING bad, the last place I'm going to is a western medicine doctor in a hospital!

Items I use regularly - vitamin c, oregano, tons of garlic, turmeric, baking soda, ginger, fish oil, ACV, and if I needed to, hemp oil, and urine.

I haven't been ill in over 5 years.
