CANDIDA

 

Candida is an over infestation of yeast in the body.  It invades the brain and every tissue of the body and it grows and lives on what you eat.  It makes your body crave what it needs and rampages until you eat it.  Many medications such as steroid drugs, birth control pills and antibiotics can increase the likelihood of a candida imbalance.

 

Common Symptoms

Conventional Treatment

-         Anti fungal drugs

Drugs are not the answer for candida and in fact can increase the severity of the problem.  Often, when finishing a course of antibiotics or a steroid drug, a person experiences a yeast infection.  Drugs that specifically address fungus or candida destroy some of the yeast, but those not destroyed begin to colonize and become more and more drug resistant.  In a stronger state, yeast produce toxins that attack the body’s defense system and destroy the friendly bacteria in the body so that there is no defense the new, stronger fungus.  “Solving” candida with drugs “stuffs” the immediate discomfort but causes the yeast to come back with increased strength and over time, the yeast becomes a problem that affects every facet of life and health.
