Fungal Infection

Fungal infections can affect anyone and they can appear on several parts of the body. A jock with athlete’s foot, a baby with thrush and a woman with a vaginal yeast infection are just a few examples. Fungi are microorganisms characterized by a substance in their cell walls called chitin. Some fungi, like
many types of mushrooms, are edible. Other types of fungi, like aspergillus, can be dangerous and lead to life-threatening diseases.

Different types of fungi can cause fungal infections. In some cases, fungi that aren’t typically found on or inside your body can colonize it and cause an infection. In other cases, fungi that are normally present on or inside your body can multiply out of control and cause an infection.

Fungal infections can be contagious. They can spread from one person to another. In some cases, you can also catch disease-causing fungi from infected animals or contaminated soil or surfaces. A fungal infection is also known as mycosis. Although most fungi are harmless to humans, some of them are capable of causing diseases under specific conditions.

Fungi reproduce by releasing spores that can be picked up by direct contact or even inhaled. That’s why fungal infections are most likely to affect your skin, nails or lungs. Fungi can also penetrate your skin, affect your organs, and cause a body-wide systemic infection.

 Symptoms
  • Symptoms of Fungal infections depend on the location of the infection.
  • Some common symptoms include:
  • Irritation
  • Scaly skin
  • Redness
  • Itching
  • Swelling
  • Digestive Disorders

 

 Root causes
  • A moist environment, humid climate, wearing synthetic clothes, sweating excessively or certain personal habits (including diet) may make you prone to an occasional superficial fungal infection.
  • Many studies report that neutropenia (reduced white blood cell count) is a risk factor for systemic fungal infections such as aspergillosis, candidiasis, and mucormycosis in many individuals.

Most Common causes of outer fungal Infections:

    • Trichophyton rubrum (most common)
    • Trichophyton mentagrophytes
    • Epidermophyton floccosum
  • Common infections:
    • Athlete's foot (tinea pedis)
    • Jock itch (tinea cruris)
    • Ringworm (tinea corporis)
    • Scalp ringworm (tinea capitis)
    • Nail fungus (onychomycosis)

Most common outer (yeast) fungal issues caused by Candida Ablicans

  • Common sites:
    • Skin folds (under breasts, groin, armpits, vagina)
    • Around nails
    • Diaper area in infants
  • Aggravating factors: Heat, friction, and poor hygiene.

 

 

 Nutritional Support Items

ESSENTIAL:

  • Acidophilus (EQ HDA, ThreeLac, BL Probiotic Plus): To supply the “friendly” bacteria that are usually deficient in people with fungal infections. Take as directed on label.
  • Garlic, Oregano, Cats Claw or Olive Leaf  (NS Oregano, NS Cats Claw or NS Olive Leaf 2 caps 3 times daily): Anti - Fungals. Neutralizes most fungi. Take 2 capsules 3 times daily, with meals.
  • Fatty Acids (NS Omega Complete 1-2 capsules daily): For relief of pain and inflammation. Take as directed on label.
  • If Candida, use Amylase Enzymes (TE GastroZyme, BL Candida RX): Fights fungal Issues
  • Appropriate Detox Remedies (BL VBF Defense, EQ Fungistat)
  • Colloidal Silver (NS Colloidal Silver or BL Silver):  Can be used topically to help relieve itching, pain and inflammation.  Also try adding a drop of Lavender Essential Oil to the silver before applying.
  • Coconut Oil:  Many use coconut oil with a few drops of essential oils and apply topically

IMPORTANT:

  • Vitamin B complex, plus extra vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) (EQ B Complex , AI B Complex): Vitamin B complex is needed for correctly balanced “friendly” bacteria in the body. Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) plays a role in the formation of antibodies and aids in the utilization of nutrients. For vitamin B complex, take 50 mg of each major B vitamin (thiamine and riboflavin) 3 times daily. Amounts of individual vitamins in a complex will vary. Do not exceed 35 mg niacin, 100 mg vitamin B6, and 1,000 mcg folate daily. For vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid), 50 mg 3 times daily, with meals.
  •  Vitamin C (NS Liposomal Vitamin C): Needed for proper immune function. Take up to 2,000 mg daily, in divided doses.
  • Vitamin E (EQ Initial E): Needed for proper immune function. Use emulsion form for easier assimilation. Use d-alpha tocopherol form. Take 90 mg (200 IU) daily.
  •  Zinc (EQ Zinc plus Copper): Needed for proper immune function.  Take up to 40 mg daily.

HELPFUL:

  • Vitamin A with mixed carotenoids (BL Total Nutrition Plus): Aids healing of skin and mucous membranes. Needed for proper immune function. Take up to 3,000 mcg (10,000 IU) daily. If you are pregnant, do not exceed 3,000 mcg (10,000 IU) daily.

Acupuncture

In Sujok therapy, fungal infections are often associated with the skin and spleen meridians. Here are some Sujok points that are commonly used to treat fungal infections:

  1. Skin point (SK): This point is located on the nail of the affected area. Stimulating this point may help to improve circulation and promote healing of the skin.
  2. Spleen point (SP3): This point is located on the foot, in the depression between the base of the big toe and the second toe. Stimulating this point may help to strengthen the immune system and promote the body’s natural healing processes.
  3. Earth point (KI1): This point is located on the sole of the foot, in the depression at the base of the big toe. Stimulating this point may help to improve circulation and promote detoxification of the body.
  4. Yang point (LI4): This point is located on the hand, in the webbing between the thumb and index finger. Stimulating this point may help to strengthen the immune system and promote the body’s natural healing processes.

It is important to note that Sujok therapy should not be used as a replacement for medical treatment. Fungal infections can be caused by various factors, such as poor hygiene, weakened immune system, or underlying health conditions. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and to develop an appropriate treatment plan. Additionally, maintaining good hygiene, wearing breathable clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items may be helpful in preventing and managing fungal infections.

 

Reflexology
Since the fungus thrives in a warm, moist environment - we want to change that environment.  This can be done by using a hair dryer!   After a shower, dry your feet well by patting the areas (not rubbing) especially between the toes.  Then take the hair dryer, and on medium heat dry the area of the feet and the areas between the toes, and also dry the tops and bottoms of the toes.   
 
After drying thoroughly, spread some 100% pure virgin coconut oil (can find this in the oil section at the health food store) on the infected area of your feet.  While you are at it, massage some of the oil on all of your feet and give yourself a quick Reflexology session by pressing and rubbing all the areas of your feet.  Note: at room temperature the oil is in a solid form, so if it is cold you may need a spoon to scoop it out. 

 

 Bio-Energetic Balancing Remedies Suggestions

If the infection is topical, you can run a skin scan and use the Search Criteria to add symptom relief by setting the Type to Description and searching the symptoms the client is experiencing (this may be itching, pain, rashes etc.), in addition you can set the Type to Item and add the homeopathics listed above.  Also use the Search Criteria and set type to item and check the above listed strains (found in root cause section) and add the strains that are a match to the hold Tank.  You can imprint the items in the hold tank into Colloidal Silver and spray on topically or imprint into Coconut oil and use a Q-tip to cover the affected area.  Use Lavender oil with coconut oil as the carrier and place on the affected area and after imprinting the hold tank into the laser; use the laser on the affected area.  You can also imprint the remedy into an anti fungal remedy.

Consider also using Isotherapy as an added part of the imprint.
