While candida is not the sole cause of most health issues, it accompanies almost every health issue.
Most people today suffer from an excess of candida. Like bacteria, we all have multiple types of fungus cohabiting within us. Anyone who is chronically ill is dealing with an abundance of candida.
There are over 20 different strains of candida and it is the most common cause of fungal infections worldwide. Many different species are found in our gut flora, most commonly the C. albicans. Other fungi are also found in our gut.
Candida albicans is found in over 70% of the population, and due to inaccuracies of testing, this percentage is likely much higher. If we include all kinds of candida, one can guess itβs much closer to 100%.
A healthy gut has a biofilm made up of beneficial bacteria with a little bit of yeast. Healthy biofilm has a beneficial symbiotic relationship with our body. Candida also develops a biofilm.
Candida biofilm is the resilient, gelatinous matrix that candida creates around itself when it colonizes tissue around the body. This biofilm allows candida to grow while protecting it from the immune system. In other words, candida uses its biofilm to suppress or activate the immune response of the host to adjust its environment.
An abundance of candida creates symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and a plethora of other mental health disorders. The toxins released by candida can impair neurotransmitter production and neurotransmitter function and disrupt brain chemistry. Your thoughts, feelings, moods, and your way of seeing the world can be profoundly influenced by candida.
Common symptoms of candida overgrowth include athleteβs foot, diaper rash, itchy crotch, itchy va**na, yeast infections, funky discharge, body odor...digestion problems, gas and bloating...which means you are fermenting your foods (also look to the pancreas), seasonal allergies, food allergies, thrush, white tongue, itchy ear canals, sugar cravings, addictive tendencies, insomnia and severe mood swings.
If you need a shower every day in order not to itch, youβve got too much yeast in your body. Skin problems such as acne, keratosis pilaris, dry skin, hives, rashes, dandruff, and eczema are a sign of too much fungus in the body.
Candida can colonize in the sinus cavities, glands, and organs in the body, including the skin and the brain. Candida can bind to certain hormones, altering their shape so theyβre no longer able to fit into their target hormonal receptors. This is one way candida can manipulate the endocrine system and disrupt hormonal balance.
*Candida can change back and forth between its different forms depending on its needs at any given time, which is one of the many reasons it is able to adapt and survive in such a wide variety of conditions.
Byproducts of candida also include uric acid and acetaldehyde. Excessive uric acid leads to kidney stones, gout, and metabolic acidosis. It can cause the body to become extremely acidic.
A popular misguided theory today is that sugar causes candida. What they don't tell you is that all sugar is not the same. The simple sugars (monosaccharides) found in fruits and vegetables in their natural state actually help rid the body of candida.
It's the complex sugars...polysaccharides and disaccharides, artificial sugars (dextrose, maltose, sucrose), the complex carbohydrates, the the breads, cheeses, grains, processed foods full of complex chemistry, starches and refined sugars, etc., that feed candida.
When people begin detoxing, some will complain of constant intense itching that they never had before. It's the candida fighting to stay alive. Keep detoxing, take an herbal fungal formula to help kill them off and it stops.
A clean, alkaline terrain is a very hostile environment for all types of candida, fungus, yeasts, molds, spirochetes, worms, flukes, bacteria overloads, etc. Astringent, alkaline-forming fruits and greens assist the body in escorting them out of the body.
Sulfur is a candida proliferator as well, which is reflected as a fluorescent yellow, orange or rust color in the iris of the eyes.
The glands which are responsible for sugar metabolism are the adrenal glands. Weak adrenals are at epidemic levels in our population today. Unmetabolized sugar = fermentation = yeasts, fungus, molds, candida.
Candida mutates and develops resistance towards treatment. It has been found that candida has the ability to rearrange its genes and adapt to many methods of eradication that may be used against it, including antifungal medications, oxidative stress, and temperature increases.
It is extremely difficult eradicate all forms of candida overgrowth and to get its populations under control. Candida is a huge problem capable of doing much damage to the body, the mind and the spirit. I know because I have lived it.
Along with changing the toxic, acidic, environment in which it thrives and cleaning the terrain, you can purchase (or make yourself) a good herbal fungal formula which will kill it and help your body get the numbers under control.
Dr. Morse created a formula for his clients for micro-organism infestations (bacterium, fungi, protozoaβs etc.) It is a reputable, high quality, organic and wildcrafted herbal formula called Parasite Micro (Parasite M).
Herbs in this formula include: Pau dβArco Bark, Usnea Lichen, Catβs Claw Bark, Goldenseal Root, Juniper Berry, Olive Leave Extract, Thyme Leaf, Butternut Bark and Barberry Root. You can find the ratios to make it yourself in various herbal and detox support groups as well.
