Kill Toenail Fungus With This At-Home Fix

Posted July 2, 2018
Anne sat across from me and showed me her toe.
She had a thick yellow fungus underneath the nail… and I could tell she was embarrassed.
“What have you tried?” I asked.
Turns out that Anne had been absolutely ripped off by a pricey fungus med – and it didn’t do a thing to help.
I’m going to show you how to keep the same thing from happening to you – and how to send toenail fungus packing once and for all.
The problem started when Anne’s doctor noticed the fungus on her toe and referred her to a dermatologist.
The dermatologist put her on antifungal medicine and offered to have it mailed to her.
Anne never asked about the cost (big mistake).
She had received two packages of medication in the mail before she realized they were costing her $1,500 apiece!
Even worse? The medication didn’t work and she still had the fungus!
Another doctor put her on a pill (expensive, but not as expensive) and the side effects where so bad she had to stop.
That is when she showed up at my door.
“I’m going to fix this,” I said to her, “and it won’t cost you thousands of dollars.”
Let me show you what I recommended:
Dr. Scott’s Fungal Relief Program:
- Keep Feet Dry and In the Sun: There is nothing a fungus likes better than a dark and moist place. The best way to fight fungus is to keep it dry and out in the sun. This means wearing sandals or flip flops for a while.
- Soak in Vinegar: Vinegar is slightly acidic. Buy a gallon of vinegar and pour it into a bucket. Soak your foot a few times a day (while watching television or working at the computer is fine).
- Tea Tree Oil: Take a cotton swab and dab tea tree oil over and around the nail a few times a day. It’s good to do this right after the vinegar wash.
- Balance Blood Sugar: Blood sugar that is out of control leads to more skin infections (including fungus). Balance your blood sugar by reducing sugars in your diet and taking berberine and chromium.
- Good Bacteria: While this sounds silly, the bacteria in your gut affect your whole body. Take a good probiotic to help improve your gut bacteria.
Health and Happiness,
