Fight Nail Fungus Naturally: Harness the Power of Garlic
Nail fungus can be stubborn, but nature offers a potent solution: garlic. Known for its antifungal properties, garlic can be a valuable ally in combating nail fungus. Here’s how to use this common kitchen ingredient to naturally fight fungal infections.
Why Garlic?
Garlic is more than just a flavor booster; it contains allicin, a compound with strong antifungal and antibacterial properties, making it ideal for treating nail fungus naturally. Moreover, garlic boosts the immune system, aiding your body in fighting infections.
How to Use Garlic for Nail Fungus
Garlic Paste Treatment
Ingredients:
- 2-3 cloves of fresh garlic
Preparation:
- Crush the garlic cloves into a fine paste.
Application:
- Apply the garlic paste directly to the affected nail.
- Cover it with a bandage and leave it on for about 30 minutes to allow the garlic to penetrate the nail and reach the fungus.
Frequency:
- Repeat this treatment once daily until you see improvement.
Garlic Oil Soak
Ingredients:
- Garlic oil (available at health stores or made by infusing crushed garlic in olive oil)
Preparation:
- Warm the garlic oil slightly.
Application:
- Soak the affected nail in the warm oil for 15-20 minutes.
Frequency:
- Do this soak daily to help reduce fungal growth and improve nail health.
Tips for Best Results
- Consistency is Key: Regular application is crucial for seeing results. Whether you choose the paste or the soak, be diligent about applying it every day.
- Protect Your Skin: Garlic can be quite potent, so it’s a good idea to apply petroleum jelly or olive oil around the nail to protect the surrounding skin from irritation.
- Keep It Clean: Always keep your nails clean and dry. Fungus thrives in moist environments, so reducing moisture around your nails can prevent the fungus from spreading.
Additional Advice
While garlic is a powerful natural remedy, severe cases of nail fungus might require additional treatment. If your condition doesn’t improve or worsens, consult a healthcare professional for further guidance.
Using garlic to treat nail fungus offers a natural, cost-effective solution you can easily try at home. Embrace this simple remedy and watch as your nails return to their healthy, clear appearance. Say goodbye to nail fungus with the help of a little garlic!
61-year-old Meg Ryan makes rare public appearance, sparks debate on internet – ‘what did she do to herself’
The Sleepless in Seattle Star, who made her on-screen debut in Rich and Famous (1981), displayed an incredibly smooth complexion, once again fueling rumors that she may have dabbled in plastic surgery, despite her previous denials.
Indeed, some shared less than flattering opinions over Meg’s new look online, reigniting a debate that the actress herself has weighed in on in the past.
“This is Meg Ryan,” one Twitter user commented. “Hopefully women will learn from this. Plastic Surgery is for Frankenstein.
“Meg Ryan spent thousands to make herself unrecognizable and hideous,” another added.
Another person wrote of the pictures, “what did she do to herself? These hollywood elites overdo the plastic surgery. Get a refund”
“Wtf has Meg Ryan done to her face?!” a third wrote.
n the past Ryan has insisted that she pays little attention to those offering negative opinions as to her appearance.
In a 2015 interview with Porter Magazine, she openly addressed the rumors regarding plastic surgery.
“I don’t pay a lot of attention, frankly,” she said at the time. “There’s a lot of hatred in the world today. It’s so easy to judge. Imagine being a hater, how stupid.”
Turning out for the aforementioned screening, held at the Alice Tully Hall in the Lincoln Center, New York, the actress seemed to be in good spirits as she posed for pictures with the likes of Billy Murray and Elvis Costello on Michael J. Fox’s big night.
Fox, who recently conceded that he didn’t think he would live to see 80 years old, is releasing a new documentary focusing on his life during the three decades since his diagnosis.
The Back to the Future star was first told he had Parkinson’s disease aged just 29. Despite initially endeavoring to hide his condition, he’s since become a leading figure in the fight for heightened awareness and research.
In a tear-jerking recent interview, Fox candidly reflected on his own mortality, saying that his ongoing battle with Parkinson’s was “getting tougher”
“I’m not gonna lie. It’s gettin’ hard, it’s gettin’ harder. It’s gettin’ tougher,” the retired actor said. “Every day it’s tougher. But, but, that’s, that’s the way it is. I mean, you know, who do I see about that?”
He added that he recently had spinal surgery after a tumor was found on his spine. While it was benign, it affected his ability to walk, and he was injured after a fall.
“[I] broke this arm, and I broke this arm, I broke this elbow. I broke my face. I broke my hand,” Fox said.
“You don’t die from Parkinson’s. You die with Parkinson’s. I’ve been thinking about the mortality of it. … I’m not gonna be 80. I’m not gonna be 80.”
