CAYCE QUOTE ON REMEDY 291-1

(Q)  What can I do to cure "Athlete's Foot"?
(A)  With the corrections in the cerebrospinal system, which draw on the locomotories to the lower portions, this will be aided and corrected a great deal with the general treatments; for one is a correction, the other a general treatment which will stimulate the muscular forces as to relieve the pressure on the bursae that produces same.
    However, to massage same with this preparation would be well (as it would be for any):

    To 2 ounces of Russian White Oil, add:

    Witchhazel.................1 ounce,
    Sassafras Oil..............1 ounce,
    Pure kerosene..............1 ounce.

    Shake these together (for they will separate, to be sure, in their action), and massage into the feet and ankles.
