Description
Candida Albicans is a yeast that normally lives in our nose, skin, vagina and gastrointestinal tract. Problems arise when candida overgrows. We accelerate this by eating sugar (which candida loves), foods with mold (a form of yeast), and by breathing mold. These things directly increase the internal yeast population. However, destroying the normal bacteria also results in the candida overgrowth. The most obvious offender is antibiotics whose main job is to destroy bacteria-namely the bad bacteria. However, along the way it also destroys the friendly bacteria that prevent the candida from growing wildly out of control. Poor diet and stress are some of the other indirect mechanisms by which the internal environment is created, which allows for candida overgrowth.
Candida overgrowth is accelerated by:
- Eating sugar
- Eating foods with mold
- Breathing molds
- Poor diet (processed foods)
- Stress
- Antibiotic over use
- Lack of sleep
- Dehydration
Candida overgrowth is found in one-third of the population in varying degrees. Manifesting multiple symptoms, candida frequently causes a general feeling of malaise-headachy and tense, tired and week, with tendencies toward depression and fatigue, forgetfulness and inability to concentrate. Sinus problems, achy bones and joins, upset stomach and gas, indigestion and a generalized increased sensitivity to food and environmental allergens are experienced by many candida sufferers are a result of the subtle disruption of the immune function.
Common Symptoms:
- General malaise
- Tense, tired, weak
- Depression and fatigue
- Forgetful
- Difficulty concentrating
- Sinus problems
- Achy bones and joints
- Upset stomach and gas
- Indigestion
- Increased sensitivity to allergens
- Skin Rashes
The best treatment for these multiple symptoms is a mold-free and yeast-free diet that eliminates foods such as milk and dairy products, particularly cheese. Milk and dairy products are contaminated with mold, and mold is used in the cheese making process. Elimination of yeast breads and yeast foods, as well as vinegars, since these contain a log of mold allergens. Avoid sugars in all forms, including alcohol, and antibiotics. Sugar affects candida greatly causing memory lapses, forgetfulness and depression. Often these same people experience craving for sugar or foods that contain sugar, as well as, bread. Eat a good diet, which avoids foods that provoke allergic reactions, which further diminish the immune system.
