I'm sure you've already spent months trying to figure this out. That is alright. I've spent years. And you know what? I'm going to provide the information to you for free. Why? Because Lamisil is deadly and I'm tired of hearing/seeing/reading about all the bunk remedies out there that do not work.
Now do not get all excited. It takes commitment on your part to get an effective treatment. More often than not, a month of daily effort is needed to rid yourself of the toenail fungus. It is also a matter of severity. If your toenail fungus is so bad that your nails are 1/4" thick and curling, you will need to have them surgically removed.
This natural toenail fungus treatment information came to me via a professor of mine during our medical procedures course. I am passing it on to you in hopes that people try this first before resorting to the toxic effects of Lamisil.
The basic premise behind this odd sounding natural toenail fungus treatment is to soften the nail with the dark beer, create an acidic environment with vinegar which is beneficial to good bacteria and deadly to fungus and then penetrate the nails with massive amount of live beneficial bacteria to help kill and prevent further recurrences.
Do twice a day for faster results
What to look for: As the fungus gets killed by this natural toenail fungus treatment, you will notice that the new nail growth from the nail base is coming in clear. This is a good sign. Some people see clearing at the base within one week and some people see clearing at the base in one month. It all depends on how fast your nails grow and how often you soak them.
It will take about 3 months for the infected nails to completely grow out. As long as you keep seeing the nail base come in clean and grow out cleanly, you are on the right track.
Make sure you do this toenail fungus treatment daily. Make it a routine. Watch some TV, read a book or wash the dishes for 30 minutes. Do not skip a day. If you do, it may take a bit longer than a month but keep at it.
If you know your nails grow slowly, then consider purchasing some MSM or Silicea 6x cell salts as they have shown to increase nail growth.
This anti-fungus protocol is an excellent way to help prevent liver damage via Lamisil.
If the formula is not strong enough, play with it. Perhaps add some more acidophilis to the mix or more vinegar - or more beer. Play with the concentrations.
I have had people say they are sharing the soak with another person. I think this may be ok if you're fine with soaking in someone else's Beer Soak. The couple that is doing it are husband and wife. They are seeiing success and they are soaking together. Pretty smart :)
If you've any questions, I'm happy to answer them for you.
Contact me to obtain the acidophilis sachets. I am abiding by the manufacturer's request to not make them freely available to all without contacting me first. It is a physician grade product and they want to keep it that way. You may send a request to: soak@healthegoods.com
I estimated the total cost of this procedure to be about $150.00 That is very inexpensive compared to Lamisil - and much healthier to your liver.
Even if you drink a couple Guiness Stouts while you do the soak - it may still be safer than Lamisil on your liver. :)
This will work. If you follow the directions as I've written them, your toenail fungus, tinea unguuim, onchomycosis - whatever you want to call it - will be dead and you again will have pretty nails. I promise.
DMSO and Tea tree oil treatment for toenail fungus: This may work but only in situations when the fungus is not severe. If the nail just shows sign of being infected, then give this a shot. I also am not a big fan of repeatedly putting essential oils onto the skin. They burn, are super concentrated and are toxic. Always keep essential oils up very high or locked in a cupboard to keep little ones away from them. If they get ahold of them and put on skin or swallow, serious injury could occur.
What to do:
- Go to your local store and buy some DMSO and tea tree oil.
- Clean and scrape your nails really well with water and soap.
- Apply in equal parts [with a cotton ball or swab] a light layer of DMSO (99%) and tea tree or thuja essential oil to the toenail fungus.
- Put a bandaid over the nails.
- Repeat three times a day. Yep. 3x a day. Want the fungus gone? Good. 3 times a day
- Remember - this only is effective if the tonail fungus is not severe. If you want it to really work, do the beer soaks.
Vicks Vapor Rub treatment for toenail fungus: I haven't seen it work but pediatricians claim that it does. Little kids' toenails are not so thick and supposedly the menthol penetrates and kills the fungus. My 2 year old had toenail fungus and this didn't kill it. It helped slow it down that's all.
So that is it. Those are the effective treatments. You can send a hug in the mail when you see your fungus gone. And you can also tell people about this awesome blog entry - I truely want to help the public gain health without drugs and this entry should definitely help.
All the ingredients written about are easy to obtain except the urea paste. Urea paste is prescription-only from a physician. Key Pharmacy in Renton, Washington sells it and ships it all over the world. They also add tea tree and DMSO in it. Advise your physician about this awesome pharmacy.
If you have a fungal infection of any other type on your body such as: tinea versicolor, tinea crura, tinea pedis, jock itch, atheletes foot, cradle crap, then I recommend Saprox Natural Antifungal Treatment. Saprox is a natural antifungal mud from the Czech Republic. It works quickly and effectively. Simply apply it, let it dry and wash off once or twice a day until the fungus is gone. It also helps speed the process of killing toenail fungus. Apply after the beer soak. Instructions are on our website.
