Fighting Fungus for Better Health

Chances are you don't think much about fungus. But nutritionist Doug Kauffman does. And he believes fungi may be to blame for some mundane health problems and life-threatening diseases.

From digestive difficulties and sinus problems to ringing in the ears, a growing number of researchers, including Kauffman, are seeing a link to fungal infections. There's also reason to believe there may be a link between fungi and serious ailments such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and even AIDs, says Kauffman, an author, nutritionist and noted health expert on fungi.

"Millions of Americans would benefit by taking antifungal remedies," Kauffman says. "But one major problem exists - physicians rarely prescribe them because they feel that infectious agents are almost exclusively bacterial or viral. In reality, the fungus-disease link is very well documented in scientific literature." To read more from Doug Kauffman on fungus, click here.

Fungal afflictions have a long and storied history with humans. In modern health parlance, "fungus" is used to classify a broad range of micro-organisms other than bacteria or viruses. These micro-organisms can enter the body in a variety of ways, from inhalation and ingestion to infection through a wound.

"Fungal infections can be associated with some of the most common maladies," says Guy Evans of BioActive Nutrients, a leading provider of non-prescription fungal remedies. "Yeast infections, achy joints, blood sugar imbalances, 'brain fog' and even eye floaters have all been linked to fungal infections. There is also an association between fungus and sinus problems, eye infections, nail, hair and skin problems and even psoriasis."

BioActive Nutrients promotes dietary changes in tandem with taking anti-fungal remedies in a specific sequence to achieve maximum effectiveness, says Evans. The company packages these remedies in an Antifungal Kit that aims to rid the body of fungal toxins while boosting the amount of beneficial bacteria in the body. Customer service representatives will also assist consumers in finding nutritional resources to enhance their anti-fungal regimen.

"Today, fungus is rarely thought of in clinical medicine," says Kauffman. "This is most unfortunate because many of us believe that serious diseases like diabetes, heart disease and even cancer very often have a fungal root cause. A very valid argument can be made for the use of antifungal remedies as health enhancing, prescriptive or otherwise."
