Around 70% of people will have Athlete’s foot at some point in their lives. Athlete’s foot is a fungus, called trichophyton, most commonly found between your toes. The fungus thrives in warm, moist areas such as locker rooms, showers and swimming pools. Symptoms of Athlete’s foot are: dry skin, pain, itching, scaling, inflammation, burning and stinging sensations as well as blisters. Watch out for blisters! If left untreated they can be a breeding ground for more infections.[1]
Soak your feet in 2 tablespoons of organic vinegar or organic salt mixed with warm water for 15 minutes every night. Apply baking soda paste to the affected area for 1-2 hours, then rinse, dry and dust with cornstarch. Continue until fungus passes.
