Body fungus natural remedies 

Try these simple home remedies to get rid of the fungus on your body -

  • Tea tree oil has excellent antifungal properties, apply it over the infected area to get rid of the fungus.
  • Acidophilus is a healthy bacteria which helps fight against the fungal infection on the body. Include lots of buttermilk (2-3 glasses daily) or yoghurt or plain yoghurt in your diet.


    External application of buttermilk over the infected area and then rinsing in 10-15 minutes would also help. Acidophilus supplements can also be taken after consulting a specialist.
  • Mix equal portions of warm water and apple cider vinegar. Apply this solution on the skin with fungus, leave it for 15-20 minutes and wash thoroughly removing the dead skin.
  • Apply vitamin E oil on the skin with the help of a cotton swab to effectively get rid of the fungus.
  • If the fungal infection spreads to other parts of the body then it would be wise to consult a specialist to know the exact cause and treatment.
