Natural Cure for Smelly Foot
Preparing a soak produced from tea bags does away with the smell from feet that give off stinky odor. Tea contains tannic acid which helps to kill the bacteria causing the odor. Take a couple of black tea bags and boil this in a quart of water.
Let the tea boil for more than 10 to 15 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and get rid of the tea bags. Pour this hot liquid into a large pot or a basin that has been filled with half a gallon of cool water. Swirl the tea into the cool water and allow your feet to submerge in this preparation. Soak your feet for half an hour in this liquid. Continue with this method daily for at least a fortnight and you will observe that your feet no longer give off an unpleasant odor.
Feet that also sweats in addition to giving off an odor, try soaking your feet in rough sea salt. Sea salt has larger crystals than table salt and soaking your feet in them will yield good results. Add a cup of sea salt to half a gallon of water and soak your feet thoroughly in this solution. Let it stay in the water for about 15 minutes. After you are through with the soak do not rinse your feet. Instead you must dry them with a clean thick towel. Salt helps to dry the feet naturally while helping to kill the odor causing bacteria.
