Candida Albicans is a yeast that lives and functions naturally within the human body. This yeast lives in harmony with a variety of other microorganisms and actually performs a couple important functions when in proper balance within the body. If an imbalance develops through bad diet choices, the yeast begins to proliferate and take over all the healthy microorganisms and creates candida. A few solutions are available today to help cure this imbalance, but will require extensive discipline and diet modifications.
Step 1
Make every effort to not take antibiotics, as these destroy every kind of bacteria, both good and bad, within the gut. If it is necessary to take an antibiotic, supplement with a pro-biotic, and eat plain yogurt to supply healthy bacteria back into your system.
Step 2
Take acidophilus supplements on a daily basis. This is one of the best defenses against yeast overgrowth and it promotes a healthy digestive system and colon.
Step 3
Eat a diet that has no added sugar, and do not consume fruit for 30 straight days. Yeast grows and thrives on sugar, so eliminating it is essential to curing the overgrowth. Incorporate oregano oil, garlic, grapefruit seed extract and colloidal silver into your treatment regimen. If these natural treatments are not doing enough, you can consider prescription medication like Nystatin, Diflucan or Nizoral which can be obtained through your physician. However, these drugs do carry risks, states Cynthia Perkins with HolisticHelp.net.
Step 4
Take a digestive enzyme daily such as bromelain and papain. These digestive enzymes help the body properly digest foods and eliminate toxins and restore balance within the digestive tract, explains staff with CandidaSymptoms.net. These enzymes are found in foods such as fruits and vegetables, but are often destroyed through heat.
