Lemon juice:
Lemon juice "opens" the nail (at the cellular level) to allow all the active ingredients to go directly into the nail matrix (root).
This is achieved thanks to the acid present in lemon juice, which increases the permeability of the nail.
This is exactly where the problem with most home remedies lies.
They can sometimes kill the fungus, but only superficially.
This means that the fungus keeps coming back because it is still in the matrix.
The lemon juice opens the nail and allows the killing ingredients to penetrate properly.
Tea Tree Oil:
Tea tree oil, on the other hand, is an anti-fungal ingredient that helps to eliminate nail fungus.
But: Using tea tree oil alone doesn't work because it doesn't reach the nail matrix on its own.
This requires a combination with lemon juice, as this must first “open” the nail.
This is the only way the tea tree oil can work on the nail root and kill the fungus from there.
Vitamin E:
Vitamin E plays a crucial role in skin and nail care.
Because: it ensures that the nail regenerates
Vitamin E is a nutrient that increases the moisture content in the nail bed and at the nail root, thereby nourishing and strengthening the nail.
In this way, dry and brittle nails can regenerate and grow back healthy and strong. Vitamin E also helps stimulate nail growth so you can get rid of the old, broken nail faster.
Vitamin E is not contained in almost any nail fungus treatment and it is a crucial reason why the nail matrix formula works so well.
I know, that was a lot of information all at once.
For this reason, I have summarized the most important things for you in the following graphic:
