Athlete's foot is the most common fungal infection of the skin, characterized by fungal growth on the skin of the foot and occasionally on the toenails.

Symptoms of athlete's foot include itching, burning, and stinging sensations, as well as scaling, cracking, and inflammation of the skin between the toes and on the soles of the feet.

The infectious fungal species thrives in warmth and dampness and is prevalent in gym locker rooms and around indoor swimming pools.

People with athlete's feet many times also have candidiasis (systemic yeast overgrowth) in the gastrointestinal tract. This must be treated for long-term relief of athlete's foot.

Unfortunately, many over-the-counter treatments for Athlete's foot can cause gastrointestinal disturbances (like stomachache, diarrhea, nausea), alterations in liver test results, rashes, alterations in taste perception and in rare instances, liver failure. What many people do not realize is that there are all-natural topical and holistic treatments that are available for the treatment of Athlete's foot.
