Tea Tree Oil and other wonders

[warch]

I wanted to share my great experience with Tea Tree Oil.
Here's the thing...I had a toe nail fungus. Ick. It was on my left big toe, started in the corner, got all yellow and wierd. I clipped it with a dropped landscaping rock a year earlier, lost part of the nail and it never quite made it back. The nail regrew, but funky.

So I investigated. It was a nail fungus. Treatment? Yow! course pills, months and months, possible threat of liver damage?! Holy crap. Then a friend suggested putting some 100% Tea Tree Oil on it with a Qtip once or twice a day. Bought a small bottle at a healthfood store. I saw improvement within a couple weeks, completely cured nail within a couple months. A great find.

It had me thinking of a guy I used to work with at a restaurant that had wrecked hand nails from dish chemicals, I know hair salon workers also are at risk for this kinda thing...

So If you have some nail or other foot funk, try the tea tree.

Anyone else have some "alternative" sorts of health treatments that worked well for you?
