Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
For years I had been bothered with a fungus in the nail of my big toe. I began putting Myrrh essential oil on it. My nail darkened. Where there is new growth, it appears to be normal looking and free of the fungus. I am really pleased!
*Update*
Now that some time has passed and having done some more research I would recommend the Melrose blend or Oregano essential oil over the Myrrh.
The Myrrh oil has helped, but I think I would have seen even more improvement with one of the others. I am going to switch.
