Olive oil is very good, but recently, I've been studying up on coconut oil and purchased some at the local health food store. I Think it is a step up from olive oil and it also kills different bacteria and fungus before they can enter the body and do damage. In some countries it has been used as a medicine for thousands of years. It also helps you lose weight. I add some to my morning oatmeal and green tea throughout the day. 3 tbs is what is recommended by doctors. It helps me.

@Jessecraft1954 cool, thanks for the info :-)

I'm guilty of drinking coffee too, lol, I have tried to quit, but it's too hard.

@1981z28camaro Yes, Extra Virgin Olive Oil cold pressed is great. It's all natural and is good whether applied on the skin or used internally. Things to stay away from are soft drinks, alcohol, coffee (although I drink coffee) and anything with processed sugar, also starchy foods. Lots of good healthy water is also important.

What this "doctor" is saying over and over again is that the doesn't know.

Waste of video time.

I'm going to tell people the only thing that I found REALLY works.

I tried tons of difference creams, and they never work, at best they just irritate the skin.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil!! it works, first of all it repels water, secondly it's good for your skin, thirdly it keeps your skin from drying up, which prevents itching.

I only decided to try this a couple days ago, after months, upon months of using other junk, and having nothing work, and it's almost 100% healed, and not itchy! :-)
