APPLE CIVDER VINEGAR AND TEA TREE OIL KILLS TOENAIL FUNGUS

Apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid that can kill existing spores. In fact, subjects in a study published in the International Journal of Medical Device and Adjuvant Treatments who applied the acid to their nails daily saw improvements in fungus growth within 14 days, and 93% of participants cleared the infection within 24 weeks.

To boost results, New Jersey-based podiatrist Dana Canuso, DPM, recommends adding a few drops of tea tree oil, which “inhibits the growth of new fungus, while apple cider vinegar fights fungus that’s already present.” To do: Add 6 drops of tea tree oil to 4 cups of warm water and 1 cup of apple cider vinegar. Soak feet for 15 minutes, then rinse and pat dry.
