CANDIDA YEAST OVERGROWTH
Fungal overgrowth in the intestines can cause frustrating symptoms like depression, inability to concentrate, anxiety, and fatigue; but with the right supplements and diet you can feel better...
WHAT IS CANDIDA ALBICANS
Candida albicans is a fungus that is normally found in the human gastrointestinal and genital tracts. A candida infection occurs if the fungus overgrows or spreads to other areas of the body. People with candida overgrowth typically feel fatigued and have trouble concentrating which are both caused by the toxin that the yeast produces and which is absorbed easily through the intestinal lining.
You can ask your practitioner to do a test for this toxin to make a diagnosis.
DIAGNOSIS
Apart from this test, a definitive diagnosis of candidiasis is difficult because the symptoms can be non-specific and vary depending on the part of the body that is involved. For example, candida can cause headaches, fatigue, itching, tingling or burning sensations, memory loss, joint and muscle pain, constipation or diarrhea, PMS prostatitis, and even diabetes or hypothyroidism. The symptoms may be worse in damp or mouldy places. They may also worsen after consuming sugary or yeast-based foods. Visually a candida infection appears as white spots that may grow together. The skin surrounding the spots is very red. There may be a white, curdly discharge with a yeasty smell.
TREATMENT
Conventional treatment of candida involves antifungal agents applied topically or taken orally. These agents take care of the current infection but do not address the root cause of the infection. Candida often returns and the strains become drug resistant.
DIET
Dietary therapy depends upon the severity of the condition. It is aimed at starving the yeast of its food source, sugar. This can result in flu-like symptoms that are due to the toxins that are released as the yeast die. The symptoms will go away once the yeast is under control. They can be countered by drinking lots of filtered water and taking in lots of fibre.
The most severe dietary restrictions involve a total elimination of all sugar, yeast and fungal products from the diet. This includes fruit, aged cheese, alcohol, baked goods, chocolate, fermented foods, gluten containing grains, ham, honey and all sweeteners, nut butters, potatoes, mushrooms, soy sauce, sprouts and vinegar.
Less severe cases restrict all of the above-mentioned products for a short period of time and then allow some products back into the diet. Vegetables, fish and gluten free grains are the bulk of the diet. Live yogurt or other products containing live bacterial cultures can be added at a later time.
RISK FACTORS
There are many risk factors for developing candida overgrowth in the intestines. If you have any of them, and you feel tired, depressed, or if you can't focus in spite of addressing any of them already, you may want to look at candida as a reason why you feel the way you do.
HEALTH CONCERNS
Some of these are common health concerns that create an environment in the body that allows yeast to grow out of control, while others are environmental factors. Here is a list of some (but not all) factors that can leave you predisposed to developing candida overgrowth:
Low thyroid - The lower body temperature hypothyroid creates creates a suitable environment for yeast to proliferate.
Hypoglycemia / Diabetes - Blood sugar fluctuations and cravings for sweet foods can give the yeast more of the carbs it needs to ingest to grow.
Antibiotic use - The use of antibiotic medications can kill the natural friendly bacteria that helps keep our intestines and digestion healthy.
Stress - Extended stress can exhaust your adrenal glands, thus lowering your body temperature.
Menopause or PMS - Each of these causes hormonal fluctuations that can boost growth of yeast.
Intestinal toxicity - Yeast proliferate in a toxic colon with accumulated waste matter.
Low immunity - Normally the immune system will keep yeast in check, but if the immune system is not functioning optimally, yeast grows easily.
Leaky gut - Small perforations in the intestinal lining harbour yeast cells
