White vinegar foot bath has many benefits for treating athlete's foot and onychomycosis

Many people know that foot soaking is very good for the body. Because there are many important blood vessels in the feet, foot soaking can promote blood circulation. So can foot soaking in white vinegar treat onychomycosis?

1. Improve sleep

If we have insomnia problems, we can soak our feet in white vinegar 40 minutes before going to bed, which can greatly improve our sleep. Soaking your feet in vinegar for half an hour every day can coordinate the excitement levels of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, regulate, clear and relax tense nerves, harmonize the meridians and qi and blood, and balance yin and yang. If you persist in doing this for a long time, you can greatly change the quality of your sleep and cure insomnia, dreaming, early awakening and other sleep disorders.

2. Promote blood circulation

Cold hands and feet in winter are mostly caused by poor blood circulation in the body. Soaking feet in vinegar can speed up blood circulation, improve hypoxia in various parts of the body caused by long-term immobility or fatigue, enhance metabolism, and improve cold hands and feet.

3. Eliminate fatigue

If you feel tired after a busy day of work, soak your feet in vinegar. Vinegar can accelerate the body's blood circulation, improve the oxygen-carrying capacity of hemoglobin, improve the hypoxia state of various parts of the body caused by fatigue, enhance the metabolism of various systems, and facilitate the discharge of carbon dioxide and waste gas in the body, thereby allowing the body to relax and recover from fatigue.

4. Treat onychomycosis

Soak your feet in 9-degree or 10-degree white vinegar for 30 minutes every day, and let them dry naturally after soaking. It is best to use a glass container because it is acid-resistant and non-toxic. The amount should be enough to cover the soles of the feet and it needs to be maintained for more than 1 month. If you persist for 6 months, onychomycosis can be cured, because it takes about half a year to grow new nails. The principle is that athlete's foot is caused by fungi, and so is onychomycosis. Fungi hate acidic environments the most, so soaking your feet in vinegar can cure athlete's foot or onychomycosis.

5. Improve athlete's foot

Many people who suffer from athlete's foot, also known as Hong Kong foot, are very troubled. Not only do their feet become itchy and peeling, but they also have a bad smell, which are all consequences of fungal infection. Therefore, soaking your feet in vinegar can sterilize and clean your feet, but try to ensure that your feet are not damaged when soaking them in vinegar, which can improve the condition of athlete's foot.
