Vinegar is an old-time remedy that people still swear by, citing beauty benefits and a purported ability to aid weight loss and skin concerns. And it can possibly aid the treatment of toenail fungus. "Be sure to dry well between the toes and apply moisturizer," says Cara Wylie, DPM, primary podiatric medicine specialist with UCHealth Foot and Ankle Center-Central in Denver, who has seen positive outcomes when her patients soak three times a week for a year.

"It takes nine months to a year for the nails to grow out, so this is why you have to do this for so long a period. There are other soaks, but I find this to be safest and best," says Dr. Wylie.
