Why is Fungavir™ So Effective?

Fungavir™ is a breakthrough proprietary supplement that effectively combines the most powerful and extensively researched ingredients, giving you an all-in-one solution to get rid of nail fungus. Every single ingredient in Fungavir was hand-picked by a team of medical doctors and scientific researchers, based on clinical data and designed to get rid of all three types of nail fungus: Molds, Dermatophytes and Yeasts.

Fungavir™ contains 18 tested ingredients that meet the strength and purity standards of the USP/NF (United States Pharmacopeia–National Formulary). Each ingredient was carefully researched and included based on clinical data. No other non-prescription solution comes close in terms of quality and purity of ingredients.

The proprietary formula developed by Fungavir™ takes about 3-4 weeks for you to start seeing its effects. But be patient, it takes about 3-6 months to totally get rid of nail fungus and for new healthy nails to grow and replace the old infected nails. Of course how long it takes to get rid of nail fungus depends on each individual condition. Daily treatment of Fungavir™ is required to not only eliminate the nail fungus, but also to grow healthy nails in place of the infected ones. Please use Fungavir™ at least twice a day, and allow it to absorb into the nail for 1/2 hour.

What is Nail Fungus

Did you know that over 50 million people have nail fungus? It is a common infection, known by a few names, and with a few causes. Often, it is called Onychomycosis (tinea unguium) or nail ringworm. It can be found on finger nails as well as toenails. It tends to grow and further infect a person's nails when the hands or feet are in warm, moist and confined places, like shoes or gloves. Yes, shoes are the ideal breeding place for nail fungus because of the combination of moisture, high temperature heat and darkness. It often starts with a small white or yellow discoloration which you see beneath the tip of your toenail or fingernail. Soon, it spreads and the whole nail becomes yellow, brown or even black and it may spread to other nails as well. Your nails often becomes thick and show signs of cracking or crumbling edges. Beneath the nail bed of your fingers or toes the fungal infection breeds and grows. Often, people complain that there is associated pain in addition to looking unpleasant. And, in addition to spreading to other nails, it can also spread and infect other people.

What are the Causes and Characteristics of Nail Fungus?

Because nail fungus or Onychomycosis is infectious, many people pick it up from others in locker rooms, public showers and pools or from family members. But you can get it even if you never go into a locker room. Your shoes and socks keep your feet warm and moist, and fungal infections can easily grow there. Early signs of cracked or discolored nails should be carefully monitored. Athlete's foot can spread to other areas and can grow into the nail bed. As we get older, our bodies are able to pick up all kinds of infections easier, and nail fungus is no exception.

A manicure or pedicure in a salon is often a place where one picks up an infection. If the salon does not sanitize or even sterilize their equipment, they will spread the infection like a rapid fire. When they use equipment that is not cleaned properly or not sterile, the salon will spread the fungus from one person to another, and to both finger and toe nails. In addition, many women get fungal infections when acrylic nails are not removed and moisture accumulates under the nail. People who work with their hands in water or rubber gloves for extended periods of time are also susceptible to nail fungus. This job hazard is a real problem for many people. Of course, people who work with their feet in water or heavy work boots have the same problem.

There are 3 common kinds of nail fungus, the most common is caused by a dermatophyte fungus. In this form of fungus, the infection gets into the space between the toe or finger and the nail edges or the skin on the edges. First, the nail becomes yellow and in severe cases, the nail can separate from the lower nail bed. This is more common in toenails where the nail may get brittle and can fall off . It usually becomes a darker brown or even black color.

Nail fungus can also be the result of a yeast infection, Candida Albicans. This type of infection is the common kind on fingernails. Usually, the yeast infection type of nail fungus causes the finger nail to have a yellow or green or foggy look to it. This kind of Nail Fungus is more common in fingernails when the hands have to be in water a lot of the time. A yeast infection can set into a crack or cut in the nail of under the nail bed. People who work in heavy boots, or who wear tennis shoes all the time, or sweat a great deal, may get this kind of nail fungus on their toes.

Some people get a nail fungus caused by mold, although it is less common. When someone walks barefoot outside, there is a chance, although minute, of catching a mold infection on the feet which can spread to the toenails. This kind of fungus may enter the nail through a crack or jagged edge in the nail or a cut in the toenail.

How Can You Prevent Nail Fungus?

If you can prevent nail fungus from occurring, you are of course better off than trying to heal the infection once it starts. The following are some prevention ideas to keep you as safe as possible:

Change shoes and socks whenever they get wet or sweaty. Wear open shoes or sandals, if you can, or go without shoes (at home) if possible. Use some foot powder in your socks and shoes to keep your feet dry. Keep your feet dry after they sweat. Change your socks and shoes if you are involved in any sports or exercise. Wear sandals or flip flops in locker rooms, pool areas or public showers areas. For a manicure or pedicure always bring your own tools. Do not allow them to use equipment or tools that have been used on other clients. Never put your hands or feet into basins used by others unless you are sure it has been sterilized not just washed. Make sure that the shoes you wear are not too tight for your feet. If you have to wear gloves, take them off as often as possible.

Why use Fungavir™ Instead of Prescription Nail Fungus Treatments?

Usually, doctors recommend very strong medication that you swallow. These contain high doses of antifungal drugs that can and will adversely affect your body. While working to clear the fungal infection, they are also working on your liver, bone marrow and other internal organs. It is not always safe to ingest antifungal medications into your body. In order to be effective, you would need to take these pills for 4 to 6 months and at the same you are exposing your liver, bone marrow, stomach , intestines and skin to very strong medication. There are many side effects, which is why the doctor will order a blood test once a month. And if you are taking other medications you should tell your doctor. You could be at risk if you have liver, heart, stomach or many other medical complications. These medications often cause diarrhea, stomach pain, and even vomiting. The signs may be discoloration or light feces, blood in the stool, and other ailments. Many people complain of skin rashes that do not go away or of itching, hives or welts. Other side effects like dark urine, pale stools, throat pain have been experienced. If you decide to take a prescription antifungal medication, make sure your doctor performs monthly blood tests during the treatment.

Fungavir™ is a different kind of treatment. You do not swallow it, but put it directly on the toenail or fingernail. Fungavir™ is a safe topical treatment made of all natural ingredients. It does not go into the body to cause damage to any organs. It is very effective, and it works well on all kind of nail fungus. For more information on the benefits of Fungavir™ click here.

Fungavir™ - Frequently Asked Questions:

What makes Fungavir™ better than other treatments?
First, Fungavir™ is topical. You do not ingest it, like many prescription drugs. So, there are none of the dangerous side effects. Second, it is a strong oil based topical formula, which penetrates deep into the nail to attack the root of the problem. Fungavir™ uses only the highest grade natural ingredients which enables it to penetrate deep into the nail and destroy the fungal infection. It is safe and effective.

Can Fungavir™ be used on my fingernails?
Yes, Fungavir’s™ special formula is safe on both toenails and fingernails.

Will my nail fungus be gone quickly?
Although you will see improvements in the first month or two, it may take 4 to 6 months, or even longer, for your new nail to grow in completely. The infected and damaged nail will grow out and be replaced by the healthy new nail. If you are told that it takes only a few days or weeks, well, the human body just does not work that way. New nails take time to form and grow. The process, by nature, is a slow one. If you give up too early, the progress will stop, and the fungus can re-infect the healthy part. Keep your nails exposed to the light and air as often as possible to promote faster nail growth.

How do I use the cuticle cream and nail protein?
Please use the cuticle cream and the nail protein on the nails that do not have nail fungus, to protect them and make sure they do not get infected. You can also use it on the infected nails after they are clean, to prevent recurrence of the fungus. Also, never use the same clippers, scissors or nail file on the healthy nails that you have used on the nails with nail fungus.

Does Fungavir™ eliminate all kinds of nail fungus?
Yes. Fungavir™ can be used effectively on fingernails and toenails. It works to eliminate fungus caused by all kinds of infections including dermatophyte fungus, Candida Albicans (yeast infection) and mold. Many people who have had nail fungus for many years have found it very effective, as well as, people who just noticed the first signs of infection. Using Fungavir™ as directed, you will find success no matter how mild or severe the infection is.

What makes up the ingredients of Fungavir™ ?
The ingredients in Fungavir™ can be found on our How It Works page. You can click there to go to that page and read more about each of the natural herbal elements.

How large is a bottle of Fungavir™ and how long will one bottle last?
Fungavir™ comes in a 0.5 oz bottle. How much you need depends on how many nails are affected, how severe it is, and how fast your nail grows back. One bottle lasts about 1 month for 5-6 nails, so you can decide how many you need by how many nails need treatment. Toenails grow much slower than fingernails. Fingernails take 4-6 months for the new to replace the old, while toenails can take 6 to 8 months or longer. It also depends on how much your feet are exposed to the light and air. To totally get rid of the fungus, you need to use it until the new nail grows in to completely replace the infected nail.

Why is Fungavir™ not available in stores?
We have chosen to make Fungavir™ available exclusively online, so that we are able to reach more people and maintain control of distribution and customer service. We want to be hands on with our customers if there's a problem; we lose that personal touch when the product is sold in stores.

Can I see the label of Fungavir™?
Of course! Please click here to see the label for our Nail Fungus Formula, here to see our Cuticle Cream label, and here to see our Nail Protein label.

Who is likely to get nail fungus?
While anyone can get the fungal infection, it is more likely to occur in certain cases. Locker rooms, swimming pool shower areas and nail and pedicure salons are perfect breeding grounds for this kind of fungus. As we age, nail fungus is more likely to appear. People who work in a wet or humid environment, or whose hands or feet are regularly exposed to moisture, are more likely to contract nail fungus.

Can it be used to prevent nail fungus from occurring or reoccurring?
Yes, many people continue to use Fungavir™ after their nail fungus has cleared up, to prevent it from reoccurring. Since Fungavir™ is made from all natural ingredients, it can be safely used long term. Many people also use it to prevent nail fungus from infecting other nails. It is important, however, that if you use Fungavir™ for prevention, you do NOT use the same bottle and brush on both infected and healthy nails.

How long should I use Fungavir™?
You should continue to use Fungavir™ until the new nail grows in completely.Toenails grow much slower than fingernails. To totally get rid of the fungus, you need to use it until the new nail totally grows back in. You would see results in a month or two, but you should not stop using it until the old nail is completely grown in. This may take 3 to 5 months for fingernails, and 6 to 8 months for toenails. If you stop too early, and there are still signs of fungal infection, you risk getting the infection again. How long you should continue depends on how severe it was to start with, and how long it takes for the healthy new nail to grow in.

How should I apply Fungavir™?
You brush it on the affected nail in the morning and at night. Once a week, you should rough up the surface of the nail with a nail file or emery board to remove some of the old oil product and allow the new oil to absorb better. You should also rub some of the oil into the cuticle when you use it. Please put it on at least 1/2 hour before you go to bed and before you put on socks in the morning, if it is on your toenails, to assist in the absorption of the oil. Also, let your nails be exposed to the air and light as much as possible, to promote growth. It is best if you brush it on at least 2 or 3 times a day which would include after you shower or bath, before you go to sleep at night, and whenever you put on socks and shoes. If you use it on fingernails, try to use it 3 times a day as well. It is important to allow Fungavir™ to absorb into the nail for about 1/2 hour before covering your nails.

Can I use Fungavir™ with my prescription medications?
Fungavir™ has been formulated using only the purest natural herbs and plants. For the most part, there is no interference with medications. We have many people who take blood pressure medication, blood thinners, cholesterol reducing medication and drugs for diabetes who use Fungavir™. Also, Fungavir™ is topical, so it will not get into your bloodstream or digestive system the way oral medication will. Of course, you should always consult with your doctor if you are concerned.

Can nail fungus spread to my other nails or to other people in my household?
Yes, for that reason, never use any utensils like clippers, scissors or nail files on your uninfected nails if they have been used on nails with nail fungus. And never let anyone in your household use your clippers either. It is important to wash your hands after touching the nails with nail fungus. And, if you get a manicure or pedicure, bring your own utensils. Never use clippers or scissors that someone else has used, or put your feet or hands into a basin used by someone else.

Can I continue to use nail polish?
We recommend not using nail polish during the time you use Fungavir™. Your nails need time to breathe and heal and they need to be exposed to the light and air. If they are covered with nail polish, the fungus will still be growing underneath. We understand that you may want to cover up the fungus, but if you do, we can not guarantee that you will get rid of the fungus.

If it does not work for me and I want to return it, what do I do?
Not a problem - there is a 60 day money back guarantee. We ask that you call customer service to get your return authorization number. If you do decide to return the bottles, you must return all of the bottles, so do not throw any of them away. Please do not ship products to us after the 60 day period has expired. If you send only a portion of the bottles back, you will receive a partial refund.
