Skin infections from jiu jitsu

Let us send you a sample so that you can do a side by side comparison.
 
I vouch for Defense soap.


I had two bad cases of MRSA in early 2009. Started using Defense Soap, not a single problem since. And Guy Sako, from my experience is very friendly and accomodating. I've gotten free samples and a patch from them. After that I started buying the body wash every few months, they sold me with a good product and good customer service.

Defense Soap on the way.... CAN"T WAIT!!!!!!
 
I recently caught the werm (which is lovely since I've been trying to prep for a competition that's in a week and a half away!)

ANYWAY, I busted out my old bottle of defense soap the other day, and ordered two more today. A lot of people talk about tea tree oil having good anti-fungal properties. I'm sitting here as we speak with 2 cotton balls soaked with it and taped to my leg. And I can tell you that straight tea tree oil smells A LOT like Defense Soap, so there's some high concentration tea tree in that stuff! =)

I looked at Athletic Body Care, but Defense seemed to be less expensive.
 
Was looking around and found this on another forum:

"This issue always comes up. We all know there are good germs (resident
flora) that live below our skin in a nice harmonious fashion. Bacteria, yeasts, molds, fungus, mites, etc.

Bad germs or transient flora, live on the SURFACE of our skin. They are responsible for infecting us when they enter our bodies through various "portals of entry" (eyes, ears, nose, mouth, cuts, etc). AthleticBodyCare kills only the bad or transient flora, not the good or resident flora.
In fact, there is really no way to kill the good flora since even after a five minute surgical scrub by a physician, the resident flora still exists. There is no way anything alive can be sterile (absence of ALL organisms). Surgically clean is the best you can get, and that is after a five minute scrub with surgical soap and a BRUSH.

Ironically, since alcohol gels evaporate so rapidly, in a study from I believe 1994 by General Foods Laboratory, they prove that since alcohol evaporates so rapidly that it actually can PULL good bacteria from below the skin to the surface of the skin where it becomes bad bacteria. In other words, they show that alcohol-gels can actually increase the amount of germs on the skin. If you are an individual who harbors MRSA (Methicillin resistant staph) or VRE (Vancomycin resistant entercoccus), then you have now put a deadly pathogen on the surface of your skin that could infect you or others and was being kept in check before by the nice equilibrium created below the skin in the world of our resident flora. "

just FYI, no dog in this fight
 
Can you provide the link to that last post? I would be very interested in reading the entire thread.

Thanks,

this topic came up for discussion at my gym. we train CSW under erik paulson. anyway, would you be willing to send me a few samples that i can hand out to the guys? should i pm my address?

thanks in advance.
 
Dat1978,

Would you mind sending me an email at [email protected] with your address. Please let me know how many samples you would like and please mention Sherdog in your email.

Thanks,

Guy

The cost of shipping ($32) to Ireland is more expensive than the product (5 bars $27.50). I really want to order so i'll check at training tonight to see if anyone else wants to jump on my order.
 
I got me some jock itch since last week. Our stanky ass mats never get cleaned though.
 
CAnklerank,

I just sent 30 bars to Garra Fightwear in the UK. I would give then a buzz but in a few days to allow the soap to arrive.

Shipping is a bear. We don't make a penny on shipping. We charge our customers what UPS and the postal service charges us.

If you need their contact info or if you want a sample email me at [email protected]

I just spoke with them via email and they said they will be in Ireland next Friday. Hope the soap makes it there by then.
