Dear Candida Albacans:
I need you to understand that you cause me much discomfort. It s not only that you create this thick white colored discharges but the itching, fatigue, foggy mind, skin rashes and so many other symptoms really interfere with my personal life and enjoyment. I know that we will be living together for a long time but I believe we can live in harmony and be happy until death do us apart.
Dear Human Host:
You are aware that it is normal for me to live inside you. I am part of your existence and I do have functions that are necessary for your survival. I have been here since you were born and I will be here for the rest of your life. If you treat me kindly I will flourish and become your best friend. I am sorry that I have been crowding out your other friend that support your immune system, digestive track, absorption and secondary infections, but it was not my intent to do so. I believe that some time between the day you were born and now you may have introduced some foreign friends into your body that I just could not agree with and of course had to protect myself. Don't try to kill me. That will only frustrate me and I will return. Let me explain further and maybe we can become friend s again.
PATHOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS
Candida Albacans is saprophytic yeast that proliferates in the host when the environment becomes favorable and the host's defenses are weakened. The sites most favorable are usually mucocutaneous areas where heat and moisture provide a fertile environment and where various conditions of general disease increase susceptibility to this condition.
PHYSIOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS
The manifestations vary with the site of infection, the most common appearing as erythematous, well-demarcated, exudous patches of varying shape and size. Candida can appear in any number of sites, especially the vagina, groin and gluteal folds, umbilicus, inflammatory areas, and even between toes and fingers. Oral candidiasis appears as Thrush with creamy white patches of exudate and can appear around the fingernail as candidal paronychia.
SUPPORT
Candida infections develop in environments that are moist and alkaline in nature, in nutritional and immune deficiencies, diabetes, administration of antibiotics and certain endocrine- metabolic abnormalities. These conditions must be cleared up and resolved in order for the actual treatment to be effective.
Candida Albacans has always been a difficult condition to resolve. In most cases if the patient is able to get it under control it finds its way back in the near future.
The cause for this reoccurrence is Candida is not the underlying problem. The underlying problem exist in the digestive and intestinal system.
Candida can only become an issue if:
1) There has been an over use of antibiotics without a probiotic use for protection.
2) Excessive sugar and sweet intake.
3) Extremely poor digestion.
4) Long term poor dietary habits.
5) Chronic constipation.
All of these areas need to be addressed to clear up Candida and prevent the return of this condition.
It is necessary to create a base foundation with the body which includes immune functions, detoxification, DNA support and increased enzyme functions.
I would expect you to create this base foundation with foods but as we all know that probably will not happen and unfortunately most food is now processed or destroyed by chemicals and aging.
