Collection: Ringworm - Fungal Infections

What is Ringworm and Other Fungal Infections?

Ringworm is a common fungal skin infection (not a worm!) that causes circular, red, itchy rashes with clear or scaly centers. It can appear on the scalp, feet (athlete's foot), groin (jock itch), nails, or body. Other fungal infections include candida overgrowth, yeast infections, and fungal nail infections, which all thrive in warm, moist environments.

Fungal infections can spread through direct contact with infected skin, animals, contaminated surfaces, or personal items like towels or shoes. While they’re usually not serious, they can become persistent or spread if not addressed.

Symptoms of Fungal Infections

1. Red, itchy, scaly or cracked skin
2. Ring-shaped rashes or patches
3. Thickened, discolored nails (in nail fungus)
4. Persistent itch or irritation
5. Foul odor or white discharge (in yeast infections)
6. Peeling skin, especially between toes or fingers

Natural Support for Fungal Infections

To help eliminate fungal overgrowth, boost immune defense, and support healthy skin and gut flora, our practitioners recommend:

1. CH131 Pau d’Arco Tincture – A potent antifungal and antimicrobial herbal extract known to combat candida, ringworm, and other fungal infections from the inside out by disrupting fungal cell growth.
2. S04 Papaya Seed Capsules – Naturally antifungal and antiparasitic, papaya seeds help cleanse the gut, strengthen the digestive system, and create an environment unfavorable to fungal overgrowth.
3. P01 Oxygen Drops Liquid – Increases oxygenation at the cellular level, which inhibits fungal activity, strengthens immunity, and supports faster skin and tissue recovery.

Natural Ways to Manage & Prevent Fungal Infections

1. Keep affected areas dry and clean – Fungi thrive in warm, moist environments.
2. Avoid sharing towels, shoes, or personal care items – Prevent spreading or re-infection.
3. Wear breathable clothing – Choose cotton fabrics and avoid tight clothing that traps moisture.
4. Disinfect surfaces and shoes – Use natural antifungals or essential oils like tea tree or oregano.
5. Support gut health – A balanced gut microbiome discourages systemic fungal overgrowth.
6. Use herbal tinctures and capsules daily – Consistency supports your body’s ability to eliminate fungi naturally.
7. Strengthen your immune system – A healthy immune system prevents recurrence and supports long-term resistance.

Note: While most fungal infections are easily managed, persistent or widespread infections may indicate a deeper imbalance in the immune or digestive system. If symptoms worsen or don’t improve with natural remedies, consider seeking medical guidance.
