How to get rid of ringworm? Comments By: Anon on 2009-04-08

There are various anti-fungal creams, oils, on the market that can suppress ringworm and provide some relief, but are unable to solve the problem permanently.If you are looking to get rid of ringworm infection from the root, you must aim at cleansing the bloodstream and the body.

The diet of an individual suffering from ringworm must comprise of lots of fresh fruits juices (natural, unsweetened) such as pomegranates, papayas, oranges, apples, and cranberry. This helps the body get rid of all the toxic wastes and morbid matter that can cause infection. Raw, or boiled vegetables, whole grain cereals, honey, yogurt, raw onions and garlic should be included in the diet. Highly flavored dishes, as well as sugar, white flour and canned foods should be avoided. Also, alcoholic beverages and caffeine beverages should be avoided and, or reduced.
