Description:
After 4 years of ongoing nail fungus – and the ugly, crumbling nails that come with it – I thought I’d be stuck with the condition for life.
Yet weeks later my nail health was transformed. This is how I did it…
Want text version instead of video? Here is simplified transcript…
Today I am probably more healthy than I have been since my early twenties. Alert, energetic, and just… well, full of beans!
In particular, my nails grow strong and clean. They look nice. They feel nice. Those are, really very nice!
Which isn’t how it used to be. In fact, I spent about 4 years with really horrible toenails. They were discolored, they hurt – and two of them were actually starting to fall apart.
It had started with just one nail. But over time the ugliness spread until it covered four nails on one foot. Only the little toe was untouched.
I imagined then that it was only a matter of time before even that last nail succumbed. And then that would be the full set.
And, most likely, the fungus would find its way to the other foot… and I could watch those nails start to fall apart too.
Luckily, I managed to turn things around – and so I never had to wait and see if it would get any worse.
I was suffering from onychomycosis – nail fungus.
It looked bad, it felt bad – and as it got worse it even started to smell bad.
I felt unclean, contagious…I knew people noticed the state of my nails. So, I kept them hidden.
Doctors tried a range of remedies. A couple made a slight temporary difference. But the side-effects gave me headaches and diarrhea. Then I developed skin rash – which seemed almost ironic,
The nail fungus still grew anyway.
And that’s the problem with onychomycosis. Once you have it, it hangs on for dear life. Mine lasted 4 years. I really believed it’d never go.
And it’s not only that it looks horrible. It can also be a health nightmare.
As in… ulcers. Gangrene. At its worst… limb amputation.
I’m pretty relaxed mostly. I don’t worry unnecessarily about things. But do I want to risk those kinds of complications in my life?
Even if the chances are low… I mean, the people who lost a limb also thought the chances were low too. Look what happened to them.
I scoured the internet for ways to treat the illness. I tried some weird things over those years.
Yes, I fell for the cider vinegar trick! Most of us do…
But I ended up pretty stuck, to be honest. As the nail fungus spread from my third toe to my fourth toe I began to realize I could have this for the rest of my life.
Thankfully, I was wrong about that. Let me tell you what happened.
A couple of years ago when my nail fungus was at its worst I read a conversation in an online health forum I used to visit.
A woman was talking about her past battles with onychomycosis. She had taken a very different approach to treat her nail fungus – and the before-and-after photos she posted of beautiful, healthy nails showed she was onto something.
She learned this approach from a very well-respected natural health practitioner called Scott Davis. She posted a link to Scott’s onychomycosis program – which I clicked on immediately.
About 4 minutes later I had a copy of ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ in my email inbox. And what it taught me was not only fascinating – it was absolutely life-changing.
Scott Davis’ success in treating onychomycosis is due to the very different approach he takes.
Doctors mostly attack the fungus in the nail itself – either with creams or with oral medicines. Either way, their target is the fungus.
Which seems to make some sense. After all, the fungus is there, visible… just waiting to be dealt with.
Yet it turns out this isn’t the best way to address nail fungus at all.
And doctors already know this. That’s why they have a variety of treatment options to try out. Which is good business for the drug companies, but bad news for the patient.
Still, the medical profession accepts a failure rate for nail fungus treatment. Long years of experience have told them that medicines simply don’t work very well.
But why is this? Why doesn’t attacking the fungus itself actually deal with the fungus?
Because the fungus itself isn’t the real problem. The fungus is the result of the real problem.
And that problem – the actual reason we have nail fungus – starts off inside the body.
It’s a mistake to tackle the fungus itself when its cause is something else.
Unfortunately, that’s what doctors do. And that’s why something as simple as nail fungus so often refuses to shift.
But it’s this simple realization that explains Scott’s incredible results when it comes to treating nail fungus. And it explains why thousands of people – like me – have been so overjoyed with the results of following his advice!
Many, many people are exposed to the fungus that causes onychomycosis.
Yet many don’t get onychomycosis. Not even a hint of it.
Others… end up with years of discolored nails that start to crumble and smell bad.
Why do some people get the illness while others don’t?
The answer is: because some people’s immune systems fight off the fungus before it has a chance to get any kind of a hold on them.
While for others like me – and probably you too – the immune system simply wasn’t strong enough to fight it off.
So the fungus is able to take root in a nail – and it stays there. Usually for years.
In the time it finds its way across to the next nail.
And then to the next. And the next…
So, your onychomycosis is a sign that your immune system isn’t working properly.
If it was working properly it would fight off the infection. So, you wouldn’t have nail fungus.
So why is our immune system unable to resist nail fungus? What’s going wrong?
Well, the reason our immune system malfunctions ultimately come down to a single cause. And it’s in the gut.
I thought that was a bit odd too. But it actually makes sense. Consider this:
The human gut is home to trillions of bacterial cells made up of thousands of different species.
They’re not invaders, by the way. They’ve been with us since the dawn of time.
And they’re not freeloaders either. Far from it. Those little guys do some seriously heavy work for us.
They break down the food we eat into useable nutrients. We actually couldn’t get the nutrition out of our food if those bacteria weren’t there doing it for us.
They also produce vitamins and hormones (like the B vitamins).
They turn genes on or off.
They produce neurotransmitters like serotonin – our ‘feel good’ transmitter.
They speed up – or slow down – the metabolism.
They train the immune system. They help it become resilient and effective.
The way they do this is complex but the bottom line is really simple.
Some very specific gut bacteria are directly responsible for the effectiveness of your immune system.
I think of these fantastic gut bacteria as my ‘nail fungus bacteria’.
When these ‘nail fungus bacteria’ are in good shape they create a powerful, fully responsive immune system.
And a fully working immune system will confront that nail fungus head-on – and will beat it.
Remember: we have nail fungus because our ‘nail fungus bacteria’ are in bad shape. They are badly in need of help. I was able to give them, this help.
And once my ‘nail fungus bacteria’ were restored…. they got my immune system back online.
And my immune system kicked my nail fungus’s backside – hard. Which is exactly what I needed it to do!
We now understand the real, underlying cause of nail fungus.
And so, we get onychomycosis. And if we don’t tackle it in exactly the right way… we’ll likely have it for years.
Scott’s plan is simple. Get that ‘nail fungus bacteria’ back into shape first.
They’ll reset the immune system.
And the immune system will do what it should have done when the nail fungus first arrived.
Treating those struggling with ‘nail fungus bacteria’ is incredibly easy. In ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ Scott lays out the basic facts about nail fungus:
In his ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ program, Scott calmly steps through these facts about onychomycosis. He has designed a program that picks off each one of the real causes of persistent, ugly nail fungus.
And so he turns this obstinate condition into one that is, in fact, very easy to tackle.
Eating in a way that tackles nail fungus is much easier than I imagined.
Scott’s nail fungus strategy doesn’t require us to eat less – so thankfully there’s no portion control and no calorie-counting.
Nor did I have to give up all the stuff I like. I still eat cake with my coffee!
Scott knows that these ‘nail fungus bacteria’ simply need you to eat more of what they need to thrive – not less of what you enjoy.
Give them what they want for their wellbeing… and they’ll give you what you want for your nails.
That was my kind of a deal!
So, what does Scott’s program actually do?
The program covers a lot. But here’s the important points:
We can eat our way to a better outcome for our nails.
And forget rigid meal plans, inflexible diet regimes, and a miserable parade of salad after salad.
Instead, adopt some basic food principles, stick to the most of the time and…. just watch what happens to your nails!
Best of all, you can apply for Scott’s program in a way that’s most comfortable for you.
Start slowly and build up. Or if you’re impatient for results… go the whole hog from day one.
For me, 4 years of ugly, slowly rotting nails had caused me enough embarrassment and misery. I was in a hurry to deal with my nail fungus – so I jumped in with both feet.
I’m so glad I did – and if you could see my clean, beautiful nails now you’d know why!
If you’ve got onychomycosis – unsightly, gradually worsening nail fungus – then you probably fall into one of two categories:
– you’ve had it a short while but are worried you’ll have it for years – and you don’t want that
– you’ve had it a long time already – so you know you’re stuck with it for years. You don’t want that either…
In both cases you can do the best thing ever for yourself: start treating your nail fungus at its source. And start doing that now before it gets significantly worse.
It’s not difficult. And I was over-the-moon with the results. Every time I look at my nails I know I did the right thing.
And I’m one amongst several thousand users of the ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ program who are so glad we took action while we still could!
Ready to get started? You can have ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ in your inbox in about 3 minutes! Click here…
We now understand exactly why we end up with nail fungus.
A loss of those ‘nail fungus bacteria’ weakens our immune system – which they can’t fight off nail fungus. So, the nail fungus wins.
By tackling this underlying cause of nail fungus we’re tackling our nail fungus head-on. We’re scoring direct hits on a condition that is usually very difficult to shift.
Happily, gut bacteria respond positively to the right foods very quickly. And once the immune system gets going it’s unstoppable.
Which is very bad news for your nail fungus – but very good news for your nails!
Get ‘Overcoming Onychomycosis’ today and you’ll see exactly what I mean. Click here and it’ll be with you in minutes…
Onychomycosis won’t treat itself.
Not treating it – or not treating it adequately – has a clearly understood set of bad consequences.
At its mildest, it will spread to other nails. That’s exactly what happened to me. Started with one nail, ended up on four. Would have been all five nails if I had let it.
But worse than that, onychomycosis can lead to nastier complications.
What kind of complications? Well, bone and blood infections, gangrene, and foot ulcers to start with. But in the very worst cases, limb amputation is a realistic possibility.
Don’t wait to find out how bad it could get for you. In truth, it was the worst-case scenario that prompted me to find some other way of tackling this illness. Doctors weren’t succeeding. I needed something that would.
So do you. And here it is. Click here and get your copy of Onychomycosis in your inbox in about 3 minutes. You’ll be so glad you did!

LONDON (AP) — Most people have accumulated a pile of data — selfies, emails, videos and more — on their social media and digital accounts over their lifetimes. What happens to it when we die?
It’s wise to draft a will spelling out who inherits your physical assets after you’re gone, but don’t forget to take care of your digital estate too. Friends and family might treasure files and posts you’ve left behind, but they could get lost in digital purgatory after you pass away unless you take some simple steps.
Here’s how you can prepare your digital life for your survivors:
Apple
The iPhone maker lets you nominate a “ legacy contact ” who can access your Apple account’s data after you die. The company says it’s a secure way to give trusted people access to photos, files and messages. To set it up you’ll need an Apple device with a fairly recent operating system — iPhones and iPads need iOS or iPadOS 15.2 and MacBooks needs macOS Monterey 12.1.
For iPhones, go to settings, tap Sign-in & Security and then Legacy Contact. You can name one or more people, and they don’t need an Apple ID or device.
You’ll have to share an access key with your contact. It can be a digital version sent electronically, or you can print a copy or save it as a screenshot or PDF.
Take note that there are some types of files you won’t be able to pass on — including digital rights-protected music, movies and passwords stored in Apple’s password manager. Legacy contacts can only access a deceased user’s account for three years before Apple deletes the account.
Google
Google takes a different approach with its Inactive Account Manager, which allows you to share your data with someone if it notices that you’ve stopped using your account.
When setting it up, you need to decide how long Google should wait — from three to 18 months — before considering your account inactive. Once that time is up, Google can notify up to 10 people.
You can write a message informing them you’ve stopped using the account, and, optionally, include a link to download your data. You can choose what types of data they can access — including emails, photos, calendar entries and YouTube videos.
There’s also an option to automatically delete your account after three months of inactivity, so your contacts will have to download any data before that deadline.
Facebook and Instagram
Some social media platforms can preserve accounts for people who have died so that friends and family can honor their memories.
When users of Facebook or Instagram die, parent company Meta says it can memorialize the account if it gets a “valid request” from a friend or family member. Requests can be submitted through an online form.
The social media company strongly recommends Facebook users add a legacy contact to look after their memorial accounts. Legacy contacts can do things like respond to new friend requests and update pinned posts, but they can’t read private messages or remove or alter previous posts. You can only choose one person, who also has to have a Facebook account.
You can also ask Facebook or Instagram to delete a deceased user’s account if you’re a close family member or an executor. You’ll need to send in documents like a death certificate.
TikTok
The video-sharing platform says that if a user has died, people can submit a request to memorialize the account through the settings menu. Go to the Report a Problem section, then Account and profile, then Manage account, where you can report a deceased user.
Once an account has been memorialized, it will be labeled “Remembering.” No one will be able to log into the account, which prevents anyone from editing the profile or using the account to post new content or send messages.
X
It’s not possible to nominate a legacy contact on Elon Musk’s social media site. But family members or an authorized person can submit a request to deactivate a deceased user’s account.
Passwords
Besides the major online services, you’ll probably have dozens if not hundreds of other digital accounts that your survivors might need to access. You could just write all your login credentials down in a notebook and put it somewhere safe. But making a physical copy presents its own vulnerabilities. What if you lose track of it? What if someone finds it?
Instead, consider a password manager that has an emergency access feature. Password managers are digital vaults that you can use to store all your credentials. Some, like Keeper,Bitwarden and NordPass, allow users to nominate one or more trusted contacts who can access their keys in case of an emergency such as a death.
But there are a few catches: Those contacts also need to use the same password manager and you might have to pay for the service.

The Canadian Paediatric Society says doctors should regularly screen children for reading difficulties and dyslexia, calling low literacy a “serious public health concern” that can increase the risk of other problems including anxiety, low self-esteem and behavioural issues, with lifelong consequences.
New guidance issued Wednesday says family doctors, nurses, pediatricians and other medical professionals who care for school-aged kids are in a unique position to help struggling readers access educational and specialty supports, noting that identifying problems early couldhelp kids sooner — when it’s more effective — as well as reveal other possible learning or developmental issues.
The 10 recommendations include regular screening for kids aged four to seven, especially if they belong to groups at higher risk of low literacy, including newcomers to Canada, racialized Canadians and Indigenous Peoples. The society says this can be done in a two-to-three-minute office-based assessment.
Other tips encourage doctors to look for conditions often seen among poor readers such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder; to advocate for early literacy training for pediatric and family medicine residents; to liaise with schools on behalf of families seeking help; and to push provincial and territorial education ministries to integrate evidence-based phonics instruction into curriculums, starting in kindergarten.
Dr. Scott McLeod, one of the authors and chair of the society’s mental health and developmental disabilities committee, said a key goal is to catch kids who may be falling through the cracks and to better connect families to resources, including quicker targeted help from schools.
“Collaboration in this area is so key because we need to move away from the silos of: everything educational must exist within the educational portfolio,” McLeod said in an interview from Calgary, where he is a developmental pediatrician at Alberta Children’s Hospital.
“Reading, yes, it’s education, but it’s also health because we know that literacy impacts health. So I think that a statement like this opens the window to say: Yes, parents can come to their health-care provider to get advice, get recommendations, hopefully start a collaboration with school teachers.”
McLeod noted that pediatricians already look for signs of low literacy in young children by way of a commonly used tool known as the Rourke Baby Record, which offers a checklist of key topics, such as nutrition and developmental benchmarks, to cover in a well-child appointment.
But he said questions about reading could be “a standing item” in checkups and he hoped the society’s statement to medical professionals who care for children “enhances their confidence in being a strong advocate for the child” while spurring partnerships with others involved in a child’s life such as teachers and psychologists.
The guidance said pediatricians also play a key role in detecting and monitoring conditions that often coexist with difficulty reading such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, but McLeod noted that getting such specific diagnoses typically involves a referral to a specialist, during which time a child continues to struggle.
He also acknowledged that some schools can be slow to act without a specific diagnosis from a specialist, and even then a child may end up on a wait list for school interventions.
“Evidence-based reading instruction shouldn’t have to wait for some of that access to specialized assessments to occur,” he said.
“My hope is that (by) having an existing statement or document written by the Canadian Paediatric Society … we’re able to skip a few steps or have some of the early interventions present,” he said.
McLeod added that obtaining specific assessments from medical specialists is “definitely beneficial and advantageous” to know where a child is at, “but having that sort of clear, thorough assessment shouldn’t be a barrier to intervention starting.”
McLeod said the society was partly spurred to act by 2022’s “Right to Read Inquiry Report” from the Ontario Human Rights Commission, which made 157 recommendations to address inequities related to reading instruction in that province.
He called the new guidelines “a big reminder” to pediatric providers, family doctors, school teachers and psychologists of the importance of literacy.
“Early identification of reading difficulty can truly change the trajectory of a child’s life.”
