This information on natural treatment for toenail fungus came to me from a professor of mine during our medical procedures course. I am passing this on to you in the hope that people will try this first before resorting to the toxic effects of Lamisil.
Also be aware of claims that a product will cure or treat toenail fungus in a few days to a couple of weeks. From my clinical experience, that is not possible. It takes a few months for a nail to grow and even up to 6 full months. Nail fungus resides under the nail and a product has to penetrate deep to get to it and then the nail has to grow before it looks healthy. Therefore, beware of false claims. There are many.
Acidophilus Beer Soak:
The basic premise behind this strange natural treatment for toenail fungus is to soften the nails with beer, create an acidic environment with vinegar that is beneficial for good bacteria and deadly for fungus, and then penetrate the nails with bacteria. beneficial to help kill and prevent more. recurrences
Essential Ingredients:
- Acidophilus sachets containing 125 billion organisms
- Guinness Stout beer or any other dark beer.
- White vinegar
- Sink big enough for your feet or hands.
- Time
- Persistence and Consistency
Toenail Fungus Natural Treatment Procedure:
- In vat, for 1 liter of beer at room temperature in a container
- Add 60 billion acidophilus, which is half an envelope.
- Add 1 liter of white vinegar
- Soak clean feet in the solution for 30 minutes before bed or whenever is best for you.
- When removing your feet or nails from the basin, file your nails with a pumice stone or file. Do this once a week. Wash your hands thoroughly afterward to avoid contaminating nail fungus. Also put the feet back in the bin for about a minute or so to rinse out the filings.
- After every 3 days, discard the entire mixture of the solution and re-prepare according to the formula: 1 liter of white vinegar, 1 liter of stout and the remaining half of an envelope. This keeps the ingredients of the solution in active living form. If it’s too old, it won’t work.
- Repeat for 30 days every day. Don’t skip a day for best results.
- Do it twice a day for faster results.
- You can heat the solution by adding boiling water to the mixture before using
What to look for: As the fungus is killed by this natural toenail fungus treatment, you will notice that the new nail growth from the nail bed lightens. This is a good sign. Some people see base cleanup within a week and some people see base cleanup within a 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 grow fully. As long as you continue to see the nail bed come out clean and grow in cleanly, you’re on the right track.
If your feet become sensitive or painful, do the soak only once a day. Some people have sensitive skin, while others do not. Just dab some great liquid vitamin E or aloe on sore areas should they occur. This is rare.
Be sure to do this toenail fungus treatment every day. Make it routine. Watch some TV, read a book, or do the dishes for 30 minutes. Don’t skip a day. If you do, it may take a little over a month, but keep it up.
If you know that your nails grow slowly, then consider buying some MSM or Silica 6x cell salts, as they have been shown to increase nail growth. If you have gas after taking MSM or eating garlic or have headaches after drinking red wine, then that is usually a sign of molybdenum deficiency. You can get molybdenum at a health food store. Liquid molybdenum is ideal as it is better absorbed.
This antifungal protocol is a great way to help prevent liver damage through Lamisil. Of course, not all people are seriously affected by Lamisil. However, the FDA issued a notice to physicians: “Both Sporanox® and Lamisil® have been associated with severe liver toxicity, including liver failure and death, including some cases involving patients who did not have pre-existing liver disease or serious underlying disease”. medical condition. As of April 2001, the FDA is aware of 16 cases of liver failure in association with the use of Lamisil® Tablet (including 11 deaths and two liver transplants). These patients received Lamisil® Tablets for the treatment of various dermatological conditions, including onychomycosis.”
If the formula isn’t strong enough, play around with it. Maybe add more acidophilis to the mix, or more vinegar, or more beer. Play with concentrations.
If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer them for you.
You can find the Acidophilus sachets here along with other helpful products related to the Beer Soak protocol.
I estimated the total cost of this procedure to be approximately $200.00. That’s very inexpensive compared to Lamisil, and much healthier for your liver.
Even if you drink a couple of Guinness Stouts while steeping, it may still be safer on your liver than Lamisil. 🙂
