Boosting Immunity
Apart from directly combating fungi, turmeric helps by boosting the body’s immune response. A strong immune system is better equipped to fight off fungal infections and prevent their recurrence. Incorporating turmeric into your daily routine can thus provide a dual benefit—attacking the fungus directly and aiding your body’s natural defenses.
How to Use Turmeric for Toenail Fungus
To harness turmeric’s benefits for toenail fungus, you can use it both internally and externally. Here’s how:
Turmeric Tea: Drinking turmeric tea can help enhance your internal immune system. You can make a simple tea by boiling a teaspoon of ground turmeric in water for about 10 minutes. Strain it and add honey or lemon to taste if desired.
Topical Paste: For a more direct approach, make a paste using turmeric powder and a small amount of water. Apply this paste directly to the affected nail and cover it with a bandage. Leave it on for at least a few hours or overnight for best results. Repeat daily until you notice improvement.
