 |
|
Now I watched that program where elephants are rolling about in mud because it removes ticks/paracites etc.
But does mud have any washing/cleaning/purification/medical benefits to human skin ?
I wonder this as there are mud masks & such like and in away washing with mud would be greener than chemicals in soap...
I also wonder do the bugs in mud have any antiseptic qualities - like they stick honey on wounds to 'draw out' bad infections does mud do the same ?
I could then ask to unify the topic - which is better for you a bath in honey or a bath in mud ? |

manuca honey is a antiseptic.
you have to be careful where get the mud from as mud in fields often have a lot of cow shit in them |

It depends on the properties of the "Mud", obviously, HL.
I plastered myself in mud in Dalaman, Turkey. Baldrick was there at the same time doing the same thing! It smelled of sulphur and regular use helps arthritic aches and pains.
Recently, I was in Torrevieja, Spain and the mud at the salt flats there is brilliant for curing excema and healing skin in general. It is obviously loaded with salt - which is a natural disinfectant/antiseptic. |
