A member asked:
Would like to ask you about ringworm infection.does it has anything to do with hormones or period cycle?any food that patients should avoid?

Easy to treat: Ringworm, if that's what is really is, can be treated easily with a topical antifungal. Links to hormones must remain speculative. There's no need to worry about "foods to avoid" -- most pop dietary advice is the product of overactive imaginations.
