Saprox is a natural antifungal mud that has been clinically-proven on many suffering from tinea versicolor, tinea pedis and other tinea infections. Saprox works naturally by its high sulfur content. Research demonstrates positive outcomes when sulfur is applied to dermatological conditions like tinea versicolor.
Saprox Natural Antifungal's significant healing effect is by inhibiting and preventing growth of fungus and yeast.
The anaerobic condition where Saprox exists prevents parasites, fungus and most bacteria from invading the mud deeming it safe to use on skin without open sores.
Saprox Natural Antifungal may be used on most external fungal skin infections:
• Tinea versicolor
• Tinea cruris (Jock itch)
• Tinea pedis (Athlete's Foot)
• Tinea corporis (Ringworm)
• Tinea capitis (Ringworm of the scalp)
• Tinea unguium (Toenail fungus) - mild
• Persistent foot odor
• ...and many other fungus types
Clinical Action: anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. Contains minerals, humic acids, rich in organic sulphur. 100% natural, no additives.

Contains: lake-bottom mud from the Czech Republic and Water.
Saprox Natural Antifungal is 100% natural clay that contains sulphur and other minerals, humic acids, essential oils and other organic substances that are a product of very slow decomposition of herbs and aquatic plants without presence of oxygen over thousands of years. This natural process preserves beneficial elements within the clay. The combination of all elements play an important part of Saprox's complex effect.
Do not apply Saprox to an open bleeding skin wound.
Shake Saprox very well.
Open and squeeze out desired amount onto fingers. Apply
Saprox Natural Antifungal to fungal skin infection in a thin and even layer covering all affected and nearby areas.
Wait until dry - roughly 20 minutes - and then wash off with a wet washcloth or hop in the shower if Saprox is covering a large area. Dry skin thoroughly.
Repeat later in the day if desired or wait until the following day. Faster results seen if repeated morning and evening. Continue applying Saprox Natural Antifungal one week past healed skin. This may help eradicate any remaining fungus or yeast.
Make sure to treat infected shoes, slippers and insoles. This can be done cheaply by: Mix 1 part bleach with 10 parts water and spray shoes, slippers, insoles, razors and nail clippers.
Tinea versicolor: If Saprox dries too quickly, one may rewet the surface with a spray bottle. This allows the sulfur to penetrate more effectively for longer duration. Ideally have someone apply Saprox and rewet it for you to ensure proper coverage if on back or shoulders. Rewetting the Saprox once should be enough. Then allow to dry and wash off.
Tinea barbae (beard fungus, face fungus, ringworm): It is best to shave prior to application to ensure proper coverage of Saprox on affected areas. Treatment time will be less and outcome effective. If beard is left intact, then fungus may re-infect as complete coverage of affected area may not be possible. If shaving is not an option, pour necessary amount of Saprox to cover treatment area into a small bowl and dilute with a bit of water for a less muddy consistency. Use hands or put on large cloth and apply Saprox fully. Allow Saprox to dry and then shower off well as Saprox will adhere to the beard. Remember to bleach your razor after each shave. Also wash your towels with bleach. Consider a mild neem or tea tree oil soap as well. A chlorine shower filter may be paramount as well for complete healing and prevention of recurrence.
Tinea pedis (foot fungus or athletes foot): If only one toe is affected, simply apply a small amount on directly on the affected area. Let dry and then wash off. If more than one toe is affected, apply to all toes to prevent cross-contamination. Purchase highly breathable socks and spray shoes with 1 part bleach to 10 parts water. Wash white socks with bleach.
Tinea cruris (jock itch): If one is overweight and skin sweaty all day, it may be best to leave Saprox on all day. Purchase highly breathable, loose fitting boxers for better breathability.
Apply. Let it dry. Wash off. Apply moisturizer if needed. Moisturizer may be needed in the groin region. The feet typically do not needed moisturizer.
This Stuff Really Works! - By: C Carr

Hi,
I just want to let you know that the Saprox Mud product really works!! I've had tinea versicolor for over 20 years and have tried lotions, soaps and prescriptions that would treat the itching but never really take the spots away. I used this and after two weeks my itching AND spots are gone!! I also did a couple other thing you suggested, like cutting most of the refined sugars out of my diet and I recently bought a chlorine shower filter and that has made a big difference on my skin also. Just want to say thanks so much!
Sincerely, C. Carr

Unknown to friends and family, I've suffered from tinea versicolor on and off over the years. Nothing worked permanently until I started using Saprox. So anyone else out there buy it and use it. It will get rid of tinea versicolor. (posted by admin)

I have had 'sweaty' feet for a few years - likely because I was always wearing boots and in Seattle's famous rains and mud when I used to do landscape construction.
I used Saprox for about a week and my feet became very soft and didnt sweat nearly as much as they used to. Nice to have my feet back again.
I also used Saprox on one of my boys when he had some athlete's foot from running around at the YMCA. The Saprox worked very well. It took the itching away and killed the athlete's foot. It was also fun to use because it is literally like putting mud on your feet - what kid doesnt like that?!
I did have to put on lotion after I put on the Saprox otherwise I found his skin would get too dry from it.
The container is huge - 1/2 liter - so if I ever get athlete's foot, I still have some around. (posted by Admin)
Saprox is the best! - By: Danielle

I am on my 7th day of application and for the most part, you can't see it anymore. I'm so happy with this product. It's awesome. One more thing. I have read all of the possible causes for tinea versicolor and I don't know which one could have caused it. I'm very healthy, maintain very good hygiene and almost never take antibiotics. Can this tinea really just be triggered by heat or stress, cause I definitely have enough stress. Haha. Anyway, I have only had it for a few years and tried the shampoos and lotrimin with little success. I wanted to go natural because I knew that it would probably be the best choice, and it most definitely was! Saprox is the best!
Thanks for your time.

I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about this product. but using it two times changed my mind!
Its a bit different in how its applied. You put it on, let it dry and then clean off with water. Its kind of like a mud pack.
As I said above after two applications I saw really improved results. Now after using the product for more than a week-my area is clear and shows no sign of issue.
Really a great product!!

Sulfur has antifungal, antibacterial, and keratolytic activity. In the past, its use was widespread in dermatological disorders such as acne vulgaris, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, pityriasis versicolor, scabies, and warts. Adverse events associated with topically applied sulfur are rare and mainly involve mild application site reactions. Sulfur, used alone or in combination with agents such as sodium sulfacetamide or salicylic acid, has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of many dermatological conditions.
