Suffering from Nail Fungus? Grandma Has Great Solutions for You

Anyone who has experienced the unpleasant ordeal of nail fungus knows it's one of the most challenging conditions, taking what feels like an 'eternity' to see any improvement. On the shelves of conventional medicine, you'll find dozens of products claiming to treat the problem, some even promising 'mountains and hills.'

If you've tried the products and they worked – great. But if nothing helped you, try the traditional methods below, which our grandmothers used in the previous generation:

• Tea tree oil or eucalyptus oil: Apply a few drops on the affected areas, twice a day every day. Massage the area until the oil is fully absorbed, and bandage it.
• Grapefruit seed extract: Apply on the nails two to three times a day.
• Organic apple cider vinegar and water: Pour a cup of apple cider vinegar into a bowl, and add two cups of water. Soak your feet in the bowl for fifteen minutes daily.
• Coconut oil: Generously apply oil on the feet until fully absorbed. It's recommended to repeat the action several times a day.
• Combination of lavender oil and tea tree oil: Pour each oil into a small bottle in a 50 percent ratio of each.
• Last but not least, a tip given to me by a nail fungus specialist: "In my 20 years of experience, all grandma's remedies are good for early cases. For more severe cases, to the best of my knowledge, what helps is one and only thing: bleach." If you decide to follow the last tip, dip your feet in a bowl of pure bleach (without water), and do it away from children.
• And what if you've 'tried everything' and nothing worked? Then, it might be a completely different issue - desire and perseverance that is. And in order to solve it, you'll need completely different 'ointments'. Click here to watch the lecture by Rabbi Dr. Eyal Ungar on this topic.
