Ebook: Candida Albicans: Overcoming Yeast and Fungal Infections

Yeast and fungal infections are becoming increasingly common, driven by our modern stressful lifestyles, high-sugar diets, and over-use of some medications. Antibiotics and steroid drugs have a detrimental effect on our natural immunity and provide opportunistic yeast infections an environment where they can proliferate, spread, and thrive. The most common and best known yeast infection is called Candida Albicans. This book looks at Candida Albicans and other pathogenic fungi that can cause disease.
Yeast infections include:
• Candidiasis in the Gut
• Oral Thrush
• Vaginal thrush or thrush around the groin area
• Athlete's Foot
• Fungal infections of the skin
• Psoriasis may be caused by a yeast infection.
Symptoms of Candidiasis present in the gut can include:
• Irritable bowel syndrome / diarrhoea / constipation
• Fatigue / lethargy
• Loss of concentration
• Dizziness
• Aches and pains
• Sleep disturbances
• Headaches
• Bloatedness
• Cravings for sweets
• Allergies
• Respiratory problems.
