Ingredients:
- Coconut Oil – 2 tablespoons (antifungal properties)
- Tea Tree Oil – 5 drops (powerful antifungal and antiseptic)
- Garlic Cloves – 2 cloves, crushed (natural antifungal agent)
- Apple Cider Vinegar – 1/4 cup (balances pH and fights fungus)
- Baking Soda – 1 tablespoon (exfoliates and neutralizes odor)
- Lemon Juice – 1 tablespoon (natural astringent and brightener)
- Epsom Salt – 2 tablespoons (soothes and helps remove infection)
- Warm Water – enough to soak feet or hands
Instructions:
- Prepare the Soak:
- In a basin, mix the warm water, apple cider vinegar, and Epsom salt. Stir until the salt is fully dissolved.
- Add the baking soda to the mixture. Stir well.
- Soak Your Nails:
- Soak your affected nails in this solution for 15-20 minutes. This helps to soften the nail, making it easier for the other treatments to penetrate.
- Garlic Treatment:
- After soaking, pat your nails dry with a clean towel.
- Apply the crushed garlic directly onto the affected nails. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes.
- Rinse off with warm water and dry your nails thoroughly.
- Oil Application:
- Mix the coconut oil with the tea tree oil.
- Using a cotton swab, apply this mixture generously to your nails and the surrounding skin.
- Massage the oil in for a few minutes to ensure it penetrates deeply.
- Lemon Juice Rinse:
- Apply lemon juice directly to your nails to help brighten and further disinfect.
- Let it sit for 5 minutes, then rinse off with warm water.
- Repeat Daily:
- For best results, repeat this entire process daily until the nail fungus is completely gone.
- You may start seeing improvement within a few weeks, but continue the treatment until the nails are fully healthy and shiny.
Additional Tips:
- Keep your nails trimmed and clean.
- Avoid wearing tight or non-breathable shoes.
- Use this treatment regularly even after the fungus has cleared to prevent recurrence.
