Candida Albicans Intestinal Yeast Infection
CureWhen candida thrives inside the intestines long enough, it can root through the intestinal wall and enter into the bloodstream. Then it spreads throughout the body and is labeled "Systemic Candida" because it is then in the whole system of the body instead of being localized inside the intestines. A doctor who regularly looks at peoples blood under a microscope told me that about 70% of specimens he examined (which were in the eastern US) were infected with candida. Chronic candida infections often cause liver toxemia which allows multiple allergies to chemicals, food, pollen, etc. Low energy is a major symptom of candida because the yeasts secrete acetaldehyde as waste and this chemical creates ethanol as a by-product. Ethanol can cause excessive fatigue and reduce the strength and stamina which takes away ambition. It destroys enzymes needed for cell energy and causes the release of free radicals that promotes the aging process. Low oxygen levels in blood cells and tissues (which also result in low energy) are often the result of malabsorption of iron in the digestive tract due to the presence of yeast. Malnutrition can result from candida infections due to the yeast physically limiting contact of food with the intestinal wall, and by the yeast consuming carbohydrates in the food. But an overweight body can result from yeast infections due to the water retention that happens in the body (in response to the cellular irritation from the infection). Also what is observed as being a "beer gut" is often just the bloatedness that accompanies a strong yeast infection just like the rising of yeasted bread (which is a gaseous frothing). And the spaciness of mind and forgetfulness that most people have nowadays is just more of the typical symptoms of candida overgrowth (not to mention the less common belching, flatulence, and diarrhea.) And most females have a constant ongoing problem with vaginal yeast infections which are believed to stem from intestinal yeast infections. Most people with yeast infections are very attracted to sweet things because sugar is what candida thrives on and keeps the energy-drained person going (although the sugar is what keeps the vicious cycle going). So to maintain the status quo inside and keep the yeast happy, people subconsciously maintain a habit of ingesting sweets in one form or another because they are aware of how bad they feel if they don't. Breaking the endless downward cycle takes knowledge of the problem, knowledge of how to return to normal, and much determination. Click here for anti-candida diet guidelines. How I Fixed My Candida ProblemMy experience with candida probably
started as a child when I was a sugar addict and a "space case" who never
excelled or was able to "fit in". In my late 20's I developed very
extensive allergies to foods and chemicals. Years later, while living in a
big city, the intestinal yeast overgrowth became so bad that I had
constant diarrhea (which one can die from due to malnutrition and water
loss). The infection also caused arthritis in all my major joints due to
the constant internal inflammatory responses from the immune system
reacting to many unwanted foods (even though all were nutritious).
Hypoglycemia was also very bad at that time for me too. I think the reason that
nutritional supplements have little effect on systemic candida is that
they can only affect the candida that is in the intestines where the
supplements have the highest concentration before they are absorbed and
dispersed (and weakened) within the body fluid. Also, according to a world
renowned candida expert, Dr. Simoncini in Italy, the candida retreats from
the area of activity against it and goes deeper into the body as a result
of actions against it in the intestines. Click here to read more. He says that the
fungal spores of candida can "hibernate" for years which explains that no
matter what you do you still need to maintain a low-sugar diet and
continue to take active measures against the candida or else it will
become an active infection again.
