- I learned about this recipe during a peacekeeping mission to Africa. I worked as a military paramedic, and it was even harder for us than for soldiers. Because of the hot and humid climate, soldiers' feet literally rotted, were covered with ulcers and fungus. We worked around the clock, unable to cope with the disease.
Then the locals shared a decoction based on tea tree leaf oil and sage. We made a solution in which the soldiers soaked their footcloths. So they quickly got back on track.
