BETHESDA, Md., May 22 (UPI) -- People's feet are awash in fungi, U.S. researchers say they found 80 types of fungi on a foot's heel and 40 types on the toenails.
Lead author Julie Segre, a geneticist at the Human Genome Research Institute, said on average, each person has about 100 types of fungi living on the soles of their feet, the Los Angeles Times reported.
