Premier Candida Treatment in Austin, Texas
Candida…it’s a funny word but not a funny problem for millions of affected people. And here’s the scary part…many people have no idea they have this condition; all they know is they have vague, seemingly unrelated symptoms that are dominating - even ruining - their life.
According to Rice University research, approximately 70% of all humans are affected by candida, a yeast-like fungus that normally lives harmoniously within your body. When the delicate ecosystem in the intestinal tract becomes unbalanced, however, the candida overpowers other beneficial bacteria and multiplies excessively, smothering out microorganisms necessary for good health. The body reacts to that overpopulation by displaying a myriad of symptoms.
The Symptoms of Candida
Candida is often an invisible illness. Those who have it often look healthy and well on the outside; it’s inside where a serious toxicity is manifesting. The symptoms of candida often mimic those of other conditions so it is frequently difficult to diagnose. Some common candida symptoms include:
- Yeast infections
- Headaches
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Fatigue/chronic fatigue
- Joint and muscle aches
- Indigestion, intestinal gas, belching, bloating, and/or abdominal pain
- Mood swings
- Itchy skin
- Foggy thinking, trouble concentrating
- Insomnia
- Loss of sexual desire
- Bad breath
- Food cravings
- Oral “thrush” (white, bumpy patches on tongue, inner cheeks, gums, tonsils or throat)
- Skin and nail fungal infections
- Recurring genital or urinary tract infections
- Sinus infections
That is not a complete list of candida symptoms but it is enough to see why it is hard to pinpoint a diagnosis with such a diverse set of symptoms.
Candida has been linked with numerous health issues such as irritable bowel syndrome, autism, diabetes, chronic fatigue/Epstein Barr, migraine headaches, and several others.
How do you get Candida?
Why do so many people have candida overgrowth? Candidiasis, or the overabundance of candida fungi, can be caused by a number of factors, including:
- Medications, especially antibiotics which kill off most bacteria, even necessary beneficial microbes, steroids, and birth control pills which alter hormone levels
- Poor diet that includes an abundance of sugars and processed foods
- Stress and depression – it weakens your immune system and depletes your body of minerals
- Weakened immune system due to other illness such as cancer, HIV, or others
- Diabetes
- High alcohol intake
Often it is a combination of issues that escalate the growth of candida.
