Re: CSToenail Fungus/Melly
Cracked brittle nails do you think this is always a fungal problem? I just thought it was hereditary? My toe nails are totally crippled awful- only moons anywhere on hands or feet are on the thumbs, which are very vertically ridged so much so they often split - again I assumed with was hereditary? Biotin hasn't really helped yet. Any suggestions? (homeopathy hasn't helped either with Causticum Graphites) I was hoping that diatomaceous earth might help but I so rarely have cold drinks I haven't really started taking it yet. Jane From: Melly Bag Tea Tree Oil should be good for fungus IF you use a carrier oil. From the post i read the best carrier oil to use is Jojoba Oil because it is very thin and can get through the nails. I did use it on my very brittle cracked nails on my hands and it seems to help, the problem is i kept forgetting to apply regularly. Melly

Re: CSToenail Fungus/Melly
Hi Jane, What kind of shoes do you wear? I have the cracking issue with a few of my nails and found they are the ones that hit the tops of my shoes when I walk. The podiatrist said it was an impact issue? I know this isn't the case with your fingernails but it makes me think outside the box ... is there anything you have your hands in a great deal that could be attacking the nails/nailbeds? You might want to research nails in terms of organs/glands and see which ones contribute to nail health and then check to see what you might do to support those organ/glands. Just thinking outloud.

PT Hi PT, You can find it all over in the fields here in upstate NY. It is a very soft brown stone can be scratched drilled very easily.. If you don't live where you can find it I'll send you a piece. I've made necklaces for several of my friends. It's real easy... Lois
