Burning and numbness

This post is also available in:

Burning sensations in the skin point to nerve irritation or damage. Mercury is the most common trigger, but other toxins such as pesticides, perfumes, solvents, and mold toxins may also be involved. Numbness, often in fingers or toes, shares the same toxic origins and may signal early stages of neurological degeneration. While both conditions seem alarming, Dr. Clark shows that full recovery is possible through detoxification, parasite elimination, and organ cleansing.

Causes

• Mercury exposure from dentalware is the leading factor, allowing other toxins to enter the nervous system.
• Pesticides, automotive chemicals, fragrances, and food additives often accompany or follow mercury exposure.
• Mold toxins like ergot (e.g., from contaminated grains) interfere with nerve health and pantothenic acid metabolism.
• MSG (monosodium glutamate), a common flavor enhancer, causes facial burning and swelling and is a known brain toxin.
• Thallium, another heavy metal, contributes to widespread numbness.
• Dental cavitations and bacteria such as Shigella are deeply implicated.
• Raw or unsterile dairy can reintroduce Shigella into the system.
• Bacteria in kidneys or liver may worsen symptoms during cleansing, indicating organ involvement.

Symptoms

• Burning skin (especially after exposure to chemicals or fragrances)
• Toe or finger cramps
• Facial burning and swelling (especially from MSG)
• Numbness in hands, feet, or extremities
• Gas, bloating, depression, irritability (when Shigella is present)

Treatments

1. Remove mercury and metals: Eliminate all mercury sources, including dental amalgams and jewelry. Replace metal dentalware with composite material. Begin dental cleanup and check for cavitations. Support tissue detoxification with thioctic acid (3–6 tablets daily).
2. Avoid mold toxins: Eliminate food mold exposure, especially ergot, which is historically linked to burning sensations. Take pantothenic acid (500 mg, three times daily) to assist nerve regeneration and counteract mold-related stress.
3. Stop MSG consumption: Remove all monosodium glutamate (MSG) from the diet. This includes flavor-enhanced foods and restaurant meals containing hidden MSG. MSG can trigger facial and lip burning and is neurotoxic.
4. Eliminate Shigella infection: Kill Shigella bacteria (especially S. dysenteriae, S. flexneri, and S. sonnei) using a zapper. Follow the Bowel Program to ensure full clearance. Maintain 2–3 bowel movements per day.
5. Boil dairy products: Dairy is a key source of Shigella. Boil all milk, cheese, yogurt, cream, and butter for 10 seconds before use. Consume only sterilized or homemade dairy to avoid reinfection.
6. Perform dental and jaw cleanup: Address jaw infections and clean cavitations. If improvement follows dental work, bacteria were likely contributing. Follow with the milk–vitamin D–magnesium protocol for bone healing.
7. Cleanse kidneys and liver: Perform kidney and liver cleanses repeatedly. If symptoms worsen briefly then improve, this indicates bacterial involvement in these organs. Continue cleansing until no reaction occurs.
8. Use weekly zapping: Zap bacteria at least once weekly to maintain nerve health and prevent reinfection.
