| Question: | How can I get rid ofathlete' s foot? |
| Answer: | Athlete' s foot is caused by a fungal infection, and can be treated with grapefruit seed extract, a very powerful natural anti-fungal available in liquid or capsule form. Put 10 to 15 drops of the extract in a basin of water and soak your feet for a few minutes. Alternatively, squeeze a few drops onto a damp piece of cotton wool and rub it over your feet.
This is the ideal solution for the occasional bout, but if you are getting athlete' s foot repeatedly and also suffer from bloating or lethargy, it is worth checking whether you have a more extensive fungal infection in your body. A nutritionist would be able to help you work out whether this is your problem. In the meantime, avoid sugary foods, as they tend to feed fungal infections. |
