Toenail Fungus Treatment using the Beer Soak

This natural toenail fungus treatment information came to me via a professor of mine during our medical procedures course. I am passing it on to you in hopes that people try this first before resorting to the toxic effects of Lamisil.

Acidophilis Beer Soak: The basic premise behind this odd sounding natural toenail fungus treatment is to soften the nail with the beer, create an acidic environment with vinegar which is beneficial to good bacteria and deadly to fungus and then penetrate the nails with beneficial bacteria to help kill and prevent further recurrences.

Essential Ingredients:

• Acidophilis sachets containing 125 billion organisms
• Guiness Stout beer
• White Vinegar
• Basin big enough for your feet or hands
• Time

Natural Toenail Fungus Treatment Procedure:

• In tub, pour 1 liter of room temperature beer into a basin
• Add 60 billion live acidophilis
• Add 1 liter of White Vingear
• Soak clean feet in the solution for 20 to 30 minutes before bed
• File down nail(s) with pumice stone or file after soaking. This speeds the treatment as the fungus is under the nailbed - the idea is to get to the nailbed.
• Store solution at room temperature - avoid heat and sun.
• Every 5th day, dump the solution and remake using new ingredients.
  
• Repeat for 30 days every day.
• Do twice a day for faster results

What to look for: As the fungus gets killed by this natural toenail fungus treatment, you will notice that the new nail growth from the nail base is coming in clear. This is a good sign. It will take about 3 to 6 months for the infected nails to completely grow out. As long as you keep seeing the nail base come in clean and grow out cleanly, you are on the right track.




[see photo left: toenail fungus is not present at nail base; this is a good sign. click photo to enlarge and view the clean new nail growth at the nail cuticle base. This is after 1.5 weeks after using Saprox Natural Antifungal Mud. I am working on getting Beer Soak photos. Saprox was used here as the nail fungus was mild.]

Mild nail fungus = white spots or full nail is whitish.
Strong nail fungus = thick or yellow



Make sure you do this toenail fungus treatment daily. Make it a routine. Watch some TV, read a book or wash the dishes for 20 minutes. Do not skip a day. If you do, it may take a bit longer than a month but keep at it.

This anti-fungus protocol is an excellent way to help prevent liver damage via Lamisil.

This toenail fungus treatment works best with nails that are not so yellow and thick. If the nails are white looking, this will work well. If the nails are super thick and yellow, it may not work but it is always worth a shot.

If the formula is not strong enough, play with it. Perhaps add some more acidophilis to the mix or more vinegar - or more beer. Play with the concentrations.

If you've any questions, I'm happy to answer them for you.

I estimated the total cost of this procedure to be about $150.00 That is very inexpensive compared to Lamisil - and much healthier to your liver.

Even if you drink a couple Guiness Stouts while you do the soak - it may still be safer than Lamisil on your liver. :)

For very mild cases of toenail fungus, you may want to consider Saprox Antifungal Mud. I am using it on a patient now and we are seeing clearing starting at the base of the nail. Her nail is whitish - not yellow.
