Inside of you, an organism may be growing out of control and robbing you of health and energy . . . A common yeast called Candida albicans lives inside of most of us. Ordinarily your immune system and decent population of good bacteria can keep this yeast under control. So you feel no ill effects. However, if your health falters . . . the yeast can start to take over. When the yeast population explodes, it starts to steal nutrients from your body and interfere with proper digestion. Yeast can destroy enzymes needed for cell energy and increase the release of free radicals that encourage aging and disease. Even more insidiously, when the yeast grows inside of you it sprouts small threads – called mycelia – that actually work their way into the walls of your intestines. Not only does the yeast then destroy your intestinal walls, it also secretes toxins that leak into the blood stream through the holes it's created. Candida overgrowth can spread to the esophagus, colon and genital tract. It can cause a range of digestive problems including constipation, diarrhea, colitis, gas and heartburn. Candida’s attack on the intestinal walls can contribute to leaky gut syndrome. Candida albicans infection is suspected as a major contributor to chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, immune deficiency, allergies, depression and a variety of other systemic problems.[1,2] And some natural health experts theorize it may contribute to diabetes, heart disease, breast and liver cancer. How Candida Can Get Ahold Of Your Body Candida can gain a foothold in your body in a number of ways . . . • Losing a good support team of friendly bacteria in the intestines encourages yeast to proliferate. Overuse of antibiotics and other medications, including birth control pills, can trigger this decline. • A weakened immune system can also lead to a Candida take over. Sometimes toxins may be the root cause of immune weakness. • Finally, poor nutrition simply makes your body weak and puts out the welcome mat for yeast. Any nutritional deficiency can tip the scales in yeast's favor. In particular, eating lots of sugars and carbohydrates – yeasts' favorite foods – can make your digestive system a breeding ground for these venomous fungi. These and other health factors can contribute to Candida taking over. But you can fight back. With strategic nutrition, you can give your body the tools it needs to keep this yeast in check.
