Instructions

Varicose Vein Treatment

• 1

  Soak cheesecloth (or any thin cloth) in raw, organic apple cider vinegar.

• 2

  Apply cloth to affected area and then lie down with feet elevated for 30 minutes. Elevating the feet helps blood flow, improving circulation.

• 3

  Repeat this process twice daily for four to six weeks. It will take this to shrink the veins.

Callus Treatment

• 4

  Measure and heat one cup of raw apple cider vinegar. Heat the vinegar until lukewarm.

• 5

  Fill a small basin with water and add the warm, raw apple cider vinegar to it.

• 6

  Soak feet for 10 minutes in the solution.

• 7

  Scrape away dead skin with a pumice stone.

Corn Treatment

• 8

  Heat water in a large pot until lukewarm and pour it into a small basin. Measure 1/2 cup of raw apple cider vinegar and add it to the basin.

• 9

  Soak feet for 30 minutes.

• 10

  Rub the affected areas with a pumice stone and then soak a cotton ball in raw apple cider vinegar and apply to corns. Cover with bandages and leave on overnight. Throw this away the following morning and apply fresh raw apple cider vinegar-soaked cotton balls and bandages to corns.
