FYI, food dyes are not inherently inert, and are capable of having antifungal, antiviral, and/or antioxidant effects. Quick examples: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10068-011-0002-0 https://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/releases/2020/Q3/new-approac... The pigments fungi produce are so essential to their survival, they can’t defend against pathogens when they are gene edited to stop producing them. Toothpaste is also far from an inactive substance, there are definitely plausible mechanisms at play with the toothpaste and dye mix that could help suppress/resolve a wart. It would be worth a study, though I’m not sure what one would use to try and achieve a truly inert placebo for comparison without first figuring out what doesn’t work. |
