Ultimate Toenail Fungus Protocol

Dr. Cole's Herbal Remedies for Toenail Fungus works most of the time. It has a star rating of 4.5 on Amazon so it has been helpful for most. However, now and then we run into serious nail fungus that seems impossible to deal with. The protocol below is something that does not use Dr. Cole's products. It is a very intense program that will work. We suggest using Dr. Cole's products once the fungus has been demolished in this way so as to never allow fungus to ever populate in your toes ever again. 

An Effective Protocol for Severe Toenail Fungus

The first key action is to stop feeding the fungus. Avoid high-glycemic carbohydrates and all forms of sugar, as these can promote fungal growth. The second key action is to make your environment hostile to the fungus. Ensure your toenails stay dry and avoid darkness, moisture, and any protective conditions that could support fungal growth. Without these measures, the fungus will continue to thrive, potentially worsening and negatively impacting your health.

The Protocol:

1. Eliminate High-Glycemic Carbohydrates: Remove sugar, fruits, fruit juices, starchy vegetables, and grains from your diet to deprive the fungus of its food source.

2. Stay Barefoot When Possible: Wear sandals or open-toe footwear to minimize contact with potentially damp environments.

3. Keep Feet and Toes Dry: Ensure your feet are thoroughly dried after bathing, showering or swimming. Consider using a blow dryer to remove moisture.

4. Maintain Short Nails: Trim and file your toenails every week or two to eliminate any overhang where fungus can hide and thrive.

5. Expose Feet to Sunlight: Allow your feet to be exposed to sunlight and light as often as possible to inhibit fungal growth.

6. Soak Feet: Use a mixture of apple cider vinegar and hydrogen peroxide to soak your feet on a regular basis.

7. Apply Anti-fungal Solutions: Alternate applying white vinegar, Listerine, and bleach to your toes with a cotton ball before bed, in the morning, and after showering, bathing or swimming.

8. Brush Toenails: During showers or baths, vigorously brush your toenails with a toothbrush in warm, soapy water to remove debris and fungus.

9. Exercise Regularly: Engage in regular physical activity to promote good circulation and support overall foot health.

   
   

Note: Consistency is key. Follow these steps daily for 8-12 months, as toenails typically take this long to grow out and replace the infected and damaged nails.

Once you’ve had nail fungus, you are more prone to contracting it again. So, once you’ve completed this protocol, and your toenails are now regrown, healthy, and clear of fungus, begin applying Dr. Cole’s Nail Fungus Balm to your toes before bed, and after showering or bathing, as an effective preventative measure. (Always ensure that your feet and toes are fully dry before applying the balm.)
