toenail fungus

[Guest guest]

Dear Darla

 

Ayurveda considered nail fungus centuries back.

 

please check up ayurveda message 5204.

 

"Panchtikta Ghrutam fits this requirements quite well, with five major

bitter herbs constituting the receipe. A dose of 1-2 tsp ( 1 for

children and 2 tsp for adults) of this Ghrutam after dissolving it in

warm milk, daily morning empty stomach, will not only take care of

diseases of nails but also makes them beautiful. Apart from this

ingestion, filing the rough nail with a iron file or nail cutter

handle or a shaving blade, and then applying the paste made from cow

ghee and Tankankhar mixed well helps growth of cells. Apply this

paste twice a day. Acharya Bhavprakash notes in a shloka that if this

treatment does not normalize the nail, even a mountain can float in

water."

 

Tankankhar in above paragraph is nothing but Borax powder. Acharya

Bhavaprakash has given this centuries ago. Borax powder here takes care of fungus, and ghee acts as a medium to hold powder and also help build new cells of nail.

 

If you find out what Vicks salve contains, you will be surprised.

salve on it every night. It makes it thinner and eventually the fungus

goes away. I saw it in a newspaper article and tried it myself. It is

really amazing.

Is there anything else that I could try? Thanks in advance!

Your mail requires further discussion, since you mentioned psoriasis

and neem effect.

 

Panchtikta Ghrut and Panchtikta Ghrut Guggulu are two good remedies

for Psoriasis patients. Neem is one of their principal ingredient.

Being in micro form (no taste of neem) inghrutam, has better cell

bioavailability and offers faster effect.

 

90% of Psoriasis patients have nail fungus. Blackened toenail is a

90% probability indicator that there exists Psoriasis too. Often,

this author uses this observation to surprise the patients by

observing just nails. Neem oil does give good results for eczema. But

for psoriasis, it is not enought to make itch reduce, but also to

regenerate cells to make skin smooth and red patches reduce in size

by generation of new cells. Hence Panchtiktra Ghrutam is made in Cow

Ghee. In Ayurveda, whenever cell generation, cell communication is

needed Cow Ghee (Ghrutam) is the medium of choice. It contains 5

bitter herbs, which cause blood purification and regeneration of

cells. More general medicine is Mahatikta Ghritam, useful for many

itchy conditions.

For planters wart, try following for one month and report the

ressults; remote nature of these remedies requires that you should

try them only for a short period and if working proceed further. IN

ayurveda, sometimes Vaidyas patient is also God tests.

 

Kaishor Guggulu, Kanchnar Guggulu, Trifla Guggulu..Take 3 tabs of

each guggulu (tab size 125 mg), three times a day (after breakfast,

lunch, dinner) slight chew and swallow with water. (Total 27 tabs for

the day, if each tab 125 mg). Apply Jatyadi Ghrutam or Tailam in the

region of warts. If Tea Tree oil is giving you benifit, that itself

will do. Put foot in Carrybag or polythelen bag while taking bath, no

water should touch the sole area where oil massage was done). Drink

plenty copper or warm water and eat fruits twice a day.

This assumes that you are not taking anyother medicine for psoriasis, other than Panchtikta Ghrut Guggulu.
