andidias
is a single cell fungus that is always present in the human genital and intestinal
tracts. It usually causes no harm, but when antibiotics, immune suppressants,
or birth control pills are used, it can then grow and cause infection (people
with impaired immune function are very susceptible).
When
candidias overgrows it usually affects the mouth (white patches), ears, nose,
toenails, fingernails, athletes foot, gastrointestinal tract & vagina.
In the most severe cases it can travel though the blood stream and affect
all organs. As the fungus grows it releases toxins that further weaken the immune
system, and make the infected person really ill. Usually the symptoms (see list
at left), mimic other illnesses so Cadida ablican infections can sometimes be
hard to diagnose.
To make things worse the candidias can also cause allergies
to foods that before the infection were consumed with no problems. Anything that
kills the beneficial bacteria ( lactobacilli ) such as antibiotics, or changes
the body pH and a diet high in sugar encourages the candidia fungus to flourish.
Hormone changes during a woman's monthly cycle can also cause chronic infections.
The
candidas feeds on sugar so it is very important to follow the diet below.The diet
along with the following herbal supplements will control candidas, support the
friendly bacteria, improve the immune system, and put you on the road to recovery.
(Remember to check with your doctor before taking any supplements if you are currently
taking medication). When the yeast begins to die off, you may experience flu like
symptoms because of the toxins the fungus releases when it dies.
