Fungal irritation can appear anywhere on the body — under the nails, between the toes, in warm skin folds, or anywhere prone to moisture or friction. These flare-ups can be uncomfortable and stubborn, often returning even after conventional treatments. Dr. Cole’s Anti-Fungal Cream was created as a natural, non-toxic, herbal alternative for people seeking gentle yet effective support for irritated skin.

This lightweight cream absorbs quickly, spreads easily across larger or sensitive areas, and uses a powerful blend of traditionally known anti-fungal herbs and essential oils to help restore balance to the skin — naturally and safely.

Why the Anti-Fungal Cream Was Created

Many customers love the original Anti-Fungal Balm but wanted a version that was:

• Easier to spread

• Less greasy

• Better for daytime use

• More comfortable for larger or tender areas

• Easier to apply around nails, toes, and folds

Using the same infused herbal oil as the balm, our master formulator, Linda Hammer, created a smooth, fast-absorbing cream version to meet these needs. It provides the same herbal power in a lighter, easier-to-use format — perfect for daily support and long-term care.

What Makes This Cream Unique

Unlike chemical antifungal treatments, this formula relies on whole herbs, slow infusion, traditional knowledge, and naturopathic principles. Each ingredient supports skin comfort while reinforcing an environment that discourages fungal overgrowth.

Dr. Cole’s Anti-Fungal Cream is:

• Organic

• Wildcrafted

• Non-toxic

• Handcrafted

• Designed for long-term, consistent use

• Safe for sensitive skin

• Rooted in 20+ years of naturopathic practice

It’s a gentle, holistic approach that respects the skin while helping it return to balance.
