Fungal specialized MD brutally exposes the top 5 recommened Products for jock-itch (based on 5,000+ patient results)

 Claiming The New "Kill & Dry" Method is what's ending jock-itch 

"Thirteen years of seeing patients constantly come back to me. Asking for something to help their returning jock-itch, but I still can’t rationally recommend most of what’s on that store's shelves.

After hearing the same stories from around 5,000+ men struggling with this parasitic infection. Saying they've tried the creams, the powders, the sprays, even soaps online. Begging me to give them a prescription, so I have to explain why those treatments were flawed from the beginning. And why a prescription won't help them either.

You don't really have a fungal problem. you have a groin environment issue.

1. Standard Creams kill the fungus, But revive it...

Yes, the antifungal ingredients works like a charm, at first. They kill the active fungus causing your itching, burning, and irritation. But a dormant fungus stays alive, deep under the skin. So as you’re putting a wet layer of cream on the infection, you feel the symptoms improve. But that wet greasiness from the cream is feeding the dormant fungus hiding below. That's why you notice most creams work for 2 weeks and then jock-itch miraculously returns. 

2. Powder keeps you dry. That's It...

Powders were created to stop chafing, not jock-itch. Even the claimed "antifungal" powders only do half the job. Yes, they keep the groin area dry and somewhat fresh. BUT powders are simply to weak to kill the fungus. They don't have the needed binding compounds to fully attach and kill the fungus.

3. A prescription is a Standard Cream, but more harmful

Prescriptions are made for you to come back to the dermatologist. Firstly, they're still a cream so the bounce back is the same from standard ones. Secondly, prescriptions are loaded with so much chemicals that they damage your skin even more while trying to kill the fungus.

4. Sprays are the perfect temporary solution.

Sprays are quick, easy, and affordable. Most of them give results within the same day. But it's like rubbing numbing cream on a shattered finger. Yes you can get relief really fast, but the fungus stays untreated and continues to spread.

5. SoapS are the real deal, for only 45 seconds...

Soaps have an anti-fungal, they aren't harsh, they sink deep into the skin, and your groin is dry once you step out of the shower. It's just that you're only actively treating with the soap for 45 seconds, then everything gets washed off with water and ends up in the drain. There's just not enough time for the fungus to be consistently attacked and killed.

Then Avery lestan [CPC chemist from Harvard], brought me this new "kill & Dry" anti-fungal product he's been formulating.

The same swipe at 0, 30 and 60 seconds. Cream going on. Dry film after.

Avery has been a good friend of mine for 8 years. So when he brought me this antifungal treatment that looked like a cream. I instantly told him it wouldn't work. That's when he said "There's a catch".

He explained: "It first goes on like a cream, for maximum absorption and so the antifungal can fully be able to kill the fungus. Then, in about sixty seconds, it transforms into a micro-flexible dry film that’s still on your skin twenty-four hours of the day. Keeping the affected area protected from sweat, moisture, and grease."

It made sense, but I thought "does it actually work?"

So I Dove into the ingredients.

He called it the Jock-Daddy Stick, from a brand called Fungal Daddy. Yes, I had the same reaction to the name, Avery has always been this strange.

The antifungal active is tea tree oil — that’s whats treating the fungus behind the itching and the burning. It's the most balanced antifungal that's not harsh while also being extremely effective. Avery included Silica as the drying complex that rapidly dries the cream into the protective film. He also even added ceramides and bisabolol repairing the skin itself, calming the soreness and irritation faster.

There's no steroids, no grease, not even parabens. He third-party tested all the ingredients together, and every batch is lab-tested before it ships out. Fungal Daddy is also made in California under cGMP.

Everything checked out, so I gave it to A chronic patient.

The first was a man I’d been seeing for years. He’d been through that whole pharmacy aisle twice and was willing to try anything. He told me "Erik, if anything new comes out, just give it me." So I told him what it was, how to use it, and to come back to me after 2 weeks.

This patient came back to me 3 days early... 

I've never seen a man smile like that in my office before. He exclaimed, "Erik, my itching is gone, and I'm watching as the redness is disappearing. Where did you get this." I was even shocked myself, later that day I texted Avery the results and he instantly started making more.

That was 4 months ago, now I'm watching the company’s own numbers line up with what I’ve watched happen that day. 43,000+ men cleared. 2,352+ reviews. They surveyed 16,000+ of them for the timeline — the burning settles as it dries, the itching eases inside a day, the redness calms by about three, the area clears around a week, and by two weeks most men are back to normal days.

My honest Recommendation.

If you’ve think you've had  jock itch for a week and never treated it, make sure it's actually jock-itch. There's no need for an antifungal treatment when you could just have some irritation.

But if you're certain. Have tried the standard products that just sit under your sink. Are tired of the itching, burning, soreness. And want to start living normally again.

I fully recommend The Jock-Daddy Stick.

This is coming from my 13+ years of experience, giving men the same products that have them back in my office 2-3 weeks later. Always searching for the next recommendation I could possibly give patients, because they're afraid of the fungus spreading to other places.

Last time I checked their website, I saw they were offering a Limited time 40% discount. Giving you 2 sticks for $25/ea. They also give you sixty days to try it, and if it doesn't work you get every penny back, no questions asked. That's because they understand the time and money you've already wasted.

Their not the biggest company yet, so they are under limited supply. The release batches of The Jock-Daddy Stick that you can order from very rarely. There's only 1,500 sticks per batch, and Avery tells me they sell out fast. So if you're thinking about trying Fungal-Daddy. I wouldn't think long."

Treat the fungus. Keep it dry.
