1. Fungus -- Toenails
   Toenail fungus can be cured but is difficult to cure if left untreated. It is recommended that you seek the care of your primary care physician or podiatrist immediately to prevent losing your toenail. Toenail fungus grows slowly and is not contagious.

3. Fungus
   Fungus nails is a unsightly condition which can be difficult to treat. Many patients become very conscious about a fungus nail condition and refuse to wear sandals and have their feet seen in public. It is caused by microscopic organisms called Dermatophytes. Dermatophytes grow in the nail bed, beneath the nail and live off keratin, the protein in the nail. The condition usually begins towards the far end of the nail and may start with patches of white or yellow discoloration. If the condition is left untreated, it will proceed to the base of the nail.
4. Fungus -- Skins
   The amphibians are dying out because a deadly fungus called Amphibian Chytrid stops the frogs, toads and salamanders from being able to breath (through their skins) and ... suffocate to death. This deadly fungus is travelling uncontrollably and at such an alarming rate that no amphibian is safe.
5. Fungus -- Infections
   Like various kinds of virus and bacteria, fungus, mold, and yeasts are carried through the air (primarily as spores), and are omnipresent. Small amounts of yeast and other fungal organisms compose a normal part of the body's microflora. They normally are well tolerated by those with healthy immunity. If they increase in number... they create additional stress to the immune system, which can lead to an overgrowth. Conversely, those with weakened immune symptoms become susceptible to overgrowth of these (and other) microbial agents. Some, the true pathogenic fungus, can cause infections in otherwise healthy people.
6. Fungus -- People
   People have known about the "honey mushroom" for some time, but were not aware of how large and invasive this species of fungus could be. The fungus was investigated more closely by researchers when they realized that it was responsible for killing large groves of evergreen trees. When foresters cut into an infected tree they would find spreading white filaments, mycelia, which draw water and carbohydrates from the tree to feed the fungus. Researchers collected samples of the fungus from a widespread area and analyzed the DNA. A large sample of the specimens they collected turned out to be from a single organism.
7. Fungus -- Nails
   The organic essential oils and medicinal plant extracts in Nail Fungus No More are lipophilic, which means that they are soluble in human tissue. This property gives them the remarkable ability to penetrate into the cell membranes, to provide a wide spectrum of action against fungus at its breeding ground.
8. Fungus -- Treatments
   A fungus sheds "spores", like tiny seeds, which wait for the right moment to grow into new fungus. The most common place for these spores to collect is in shoes. Therefore, after effective treatment, a fungus may recur quickly where spores are present. Fungus doesn't care what color the socks are. White socks offer no advantage. Absorbent cotton or wool socks are best.
9. Fungus -- Fungi
   Life cycle: Fungus gnats develop through the complete metamorphosis - egg, larva, pupa, and adult - in 2 to 4 weeks. Larvae feed primarily on fungi, decaying organic matter and plant roots, particularly in very moist environments. Larval and pupal stages can ... however, survive periods of drought.
10. Nail Fungus -- People
    Nail fungus is more than a cosmetic problem. It can be painful and interfere with daily activities such as walking, playing sports, writing, typing, and other activities that require manipulating small objects or repetitive finger use. An international study conducted by dermatologists found that nail fungus had a significant impact on the quality of life of people with the disease. The main problems identified were embarrassment, functional problems at work, reduction in social activities, fears of spreading the disease to others, and pain.
