Tea Tree Oil is also a natural antiseptic, and it reportedly works wonderfully for killing nail fungus growth as well.

Garlic is a well known, powerful antibiotic and antifungal herb that works amazingly well for a wide variety of things, and nail fungus is no exception. Garlic can be used in oil form directly on the infected nails, or you can rub raw garlic on and around the nails too. Take the garlic internally at the same time, and you’ll be fighting the fungal growth from two directions at once.

Anti-fungal Creams: Enough about Lamisil and FDA’s increasing incompetence. The next hi-tech solution the anti-fungal creams like Nizoral, Leucatin, or Tineacide, or you can try the cream version of Lamisil. What the hell Lamisil cream? So there’s more than one wayLamisil can f*ck with your body?

Apparently anti-fungal creams are among the least effective form of treatment on nail fungus; they simply drive the fungus deeper into the nail bed. But even this is better than gambling with that stupid Lamisil.

Apple Cider Vinegar is possibly the oldest known herbal treatment for nail fungus problems. Many people swear by the success of this method, and it works because vinegar is also a natural antiseptic. The apple cider type of vinegar though, also has exfoliating properties. It helps soften your skin and remove the dead skin cells, which allows the fungus to be reached and killed easier.

Ajoene, a garlic-derived organic trisulphur, has a demonstrated ability to check athlete’s foot. In a 1996 trial, the use of a cream containing 0.4% ajoene resulted in the complete cure of 27 out of 34 patients after only one week of treatment. The remaining seven patients achieved the same result after an additional seven days. Alcohol extracts of garlic or ajoene-formulated creams can be found in many natural food stores.

Jock Itch (Tinea cruris) – While the common name for this fungal infection paints an unpleasant graphic picture, its attributes are even less attractive. As the name implies, the offending culprit is often an athletic supporter too long in need of washing. Jock itch is primarily a man’s concern, affecting the groin but rarely spreading to the penis, scrotum or a female partner. It is, however, aggravated by moisture and friction, making intimate contact less than desirable. Keeping the area clean and dry will usually correct the problem in 1-2 weeks. Wearing boxer shorts rather than briefs, and applying powder after bathing, will also speed healing.

Lamisil

One hi-tech solution is taking Lamisil tables once a day for, 8 months or so. But this is probably the most stupid method. Lamisil is known to severely damage the liver beyond recovery. That’s why the stupid thing needs a prescription and close monitoring from a doctor with periodic liver check ups. It gets expensive with the pills, doctors visits and liver tests. This is an example where modern medicine does more harm than good to mankind. I can’t believe
