Put Your Best Foot Forward: The Key To Healthy Feet As An Athlete

For an athlete, there’s no higher goal than the Olympics. As the world’s top athletes compete in this year’s Summer Olympics in Paris, the world is seeing the strongest, fiercest competitors deliver incredible physical performances. But as any athlete can attest, there’s a lot of blood, sweat, and tears that go into offering your peak performance. Injuries and ailments are common in sports, especially among those who are pushing themselves to the brink. In order to keep up with the competition and maintain peak physical condition, you’ve got to take care of your feet and nails.

Karasal is one of the world’s leading brands of foot and nail care products, helping athletes tackle common foot problems so they can focus on the field. Issues such as dry feet, cracked heels, athlete’s foot, and nail damage are prevalent among athletes of every level. While many of these problems start out small, they can spiral out of control and lead to serious issues if left untreated. For example, untreated nail fungus can damage the structure of a toenail until it separates from the toe. Sweaty socks, locker rooms, and saunas are all warm and moist, creating the perfect breeding ground for fungal infections. Kerasal offers solutions that can knock these problems out before they begin, keeping your feet and nails fungus-free.

If you’re looking for horror stories of foot problems at the highest level, look no further than the story of Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone. With the U.S. Olympic Trials standing between her and her dreams, Sydney dominated the competition despite losing two toenails. Her experience shows how foot problems can threaten even the best athletes, and why foot care is so important to achieve peak performance. After her experience, Sydney shared, “We wrapped them up and just got through it. It’s part of being an athlete–you push through the pain to achieve greatness.”
