UnderstandingFungalFoot Infections Fungal infections beneath or adjacent to a toenail are often the consequence of an ingrown toenail (onychocryptosis). Even eczema, athletes foot, or severe sunburn can providean opportunity for infection by compromising the outermost layer of skin (epidermis). Toenail fungus happens when fungi get between the toenail and the toenail bed (tissue right underneath the toenail). This usually happens through a crack or cut in your toe. Sophora flavescens (Ku Shen) contains a variety of marine alkaloids, such as alpine, cytosine, and Lehmann, that are effective in fighting parasitic worms and other fungal infections. Cinnamon The research group from UWE reported thatcinnamon oil can act as an antifungal by damaging the cell membrane and preventing the yeast from forming pseudohyphae. These long, branching filamentous structures are used by the yeast to absorb nutrients required for growth and allow them to spread. The Anti-Fungal Foot Spraytarget structures or functions that are necessary for fungal cells but not in human cells, so they can fight a fungal infection without damaging your bodys cells. It is infused with anti-inflammatory agents and bio-enzymes, that uproots deep-set bacterial and fungal spores to cease its reproduction cycle, thereby inhibiting the formation of athletes foot, jock itch, and ringworm. Two structures that are commonly targeted are the fungal cell membrane and the fungal cell wall. Both of these structures surround and protect the fungal cell. When either one becomes compromised, the fungal cell can burst open and die. Specification Package Includes: 1/2/5/8 x NailCure Anti-Fungal Foot Spray
