Vinegar, whether it’s white vinegar or apple cider vinegar, has been used for generations as a powerful home remedy for foot issues. Let’s explore why this simple trick works so well and how you can benefit from it.
What Happens When You Use Vinegar on Your Feet
1. Fights Foot Odor
We all know how unpleasant foot odor can be. But did you know that vinegar can help combat it? Thanks to its natural antibacterial properties, vinegar works wonders in killing the bacteria that cause foot odor. Soaking your feet in vinegar leaves them feeling fresher and cleaner, eliminating the embarrassment of smelly feet.
2. Softens Rough Skin & Calluses
If you struggle with rough patches and calluses on your feet, vinegar can come to the rescue. The acidity in vinegar gently breaks down dead skin cells, making it easier to remove those dry and rough areas. Say goodbye to rough feet and hello to beautifully smooth and sandal-ready soles!
3. Helps with Athlete’s Foot & Fungal Infections
For those dealing with athlete’s foot or mild fungal infections, vinegar can be a reliable home remedy. Its natural antifungal properties make it effective in reducing itchiness and flakiness associated with these conditions. Regular use of vinegar can help you say goodbye to the discomfort caused by these pesky foot problems.
4. Soothes Cracked Heels
Cracked heels can be both painful and unsightly. But fear not, vinegar can help! Soaking your feet in vinegar can help soften the skin and prepare it for exfoliation, facilitating the healing process. Say goodbye to cracked heels and hello to smoother and healthier feet.
5. Relieves Tired, Swollen Feet
After a long day on your feet, they might feel tired and swollen. But a vinegar foot soak can provide the relief you need. It improves blood circulation, reduces swelling, and alleviates foot fatigue. Treat your feet to a rejuvenating vinegar soak and experience the comfort and relaxation it provides.
How to Do a Simple Vinegar Foot Soak

Dad & fiancée exclude his daughter from their wedding after she bought a dress & shoes for it
Reddit is the place where people share stories of their life and ask fellow redditors for advice and opinion on the decision they make.
A teenage girl recently shared that her dad and his wife-to-be excluded her from their wedding and she explained the reasons behind that heartbreaking decision.
“I (f18) was always pretty close to my dad. Closer to my mom but I often visited my dad (about 3-4 times a week). A few years ago he started dating “Anna”. Anna and I always got along when my dad proposed I was happy Anna seemed like she would be a great stepmom,” she started her post.
OP said that she was overly excited and was looking forward to the wedding. She bought a dress and shoes, but then her dad told her that he and his fiancée needed to talk to her about something important.
“Well a few weeks before the wedding after I had bought everything (dress, shoes, etc) my dad and Anna said they needed to “talk to me” Anna and my dad decided to have a child free wedding which I get especially for young kids.
“Well turns out child-free means no one under 18. On the day of the wedding, I was still going to be 17 so, therefore, I’m not allowed to be at the wedding because Anna wants to stay true to the child-free rule even for the daughter of the groom and her about-to-be stepdaughter.”
Devastated, OP told her mom what her dad and Anna said to her. The mom was as heartbroken as her daughter and decided to take her on vacation so that she cheer up. At the same time, the mom told the rest of the family what her ex-husband did to their daughter. Understandably, most of them were shocked and angry.
Later, OP posted birthday pictures on Facebook and wrote, “I’m so glad my dad and Anna didn’t allow me at their wedding since I was under 18; I feel more mature since yesterday.”
“The family was freaking out asking if that was true and bashing my dad and Anna. I later got a bunch of texts from my dad and Anna calling me immature and a selfish brat and that’s why I was too immature to be at a wedding. I was talking to some friends and they said I was kinda an AH for doing that and I should have just let it go.”
Fellow redditors shared their opinions and agreed that OP wasn’t an AH for telling the family what her dad did to her.
“NTA. What kind of man doesn’t have his own child at his wedding? Anyway, they made the choice, if they believe it was the right choice they should have no issue about it being publicly known. Plus, people might well assume you weren’t there because you disapproved of his new wife or chose a vacation instead. Ensuring people know WHY you weren’t there saves your own reputation,” one person commented.
“The no children was made for you. I’m sorry but let that sink in. She made that rule to keep you out. You now know where you stand in their marriage…you don’t. I’m so sorry. NTA. I personally think it was EPIC. Harsh but epic. They deserved more than that. I would even update it with pictures of their texts,” another added.
A third wrote, “I can’t help but wonder if she purposefully pick a date before OP birthday just so she couldn’t go. If the dad & step-mom wanted to make it child free but make sure OP was there they could have made sure the date was AFTER OP birthday but to make it just 2 days before….. nah they didn’t want her there & was just trying to use that as an excuse.”
We believe the dad was not right for excluding his own daughter from the wedding.
