Candidol Information : Candida is a common yeast that causes serious health issues when allowed to invade your body. The most common species is called Candida albicans. Candida is a di-morphic life form. That means it is a two-headed snake. The first dangerous phase of Candida is a simple sugar-fermenting and budding yeast which plants itself inside your body. Given the opportunity to spread, Candida changes into a deadly fungus and is the root cause of many disgusting disease states. This is the hard-to-live-with phase called Candidiasis. Once the Candida cycle is triggered it spreads like the plague, destroying your immune system one day at a time. Do you want to hear a shocking fact? Many medications actually help the Candida colonies to grow even faster, antibiotics being one of them. Your digestive system depends upon good organisms called probiotics, meaning "good for life". Left untreated Candida will lead to an impaired digestive system, a serious condition called dysbiosis. Don't let it get this bad! Back to top Dangers of Candida Overgrowth! - Fungi create toxins that block normal nutrient absorption.
- They grow into Rhizoids that take deep root in your intestinal walls causing similar symptoms to Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
- Eventually Rhizoids inflame and cause Leaky Gut Syndrome.
- Once their toxins get into your blood, it is called Systemic Candida, a fungal invasion that affects virtually every organ and tissue.
- Later stages develop into bowel disorders, food intolerances, environmental sensitivities, allergies and even asthma.
- Auto-immune disorders develop as your body begins attacking itself at the cellular level.
At least 80 toxins are produced from the invading Candida fungus; two of them are called Canditoxin and Ethanol. These both cause your brain to release its own toxic chemical compounds that interfere with your nervous system. This of course, leads to unwanted side effects. Canditoxins trigger nervousness, paralysis, long-term immune system impairment and possible death. Ethanol alcohol causes fatigue, aggression, depression, brain fog and toxicity. Candidiasis is a major factor in metabolic disorders such as high LDL Cholesterol, neuron developmental disorders (Autism/PDD), Autoimmune diseases (Addison's, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, etc . . .), Bowel diseases (Crohn's, Ulcerative colitis, IBS), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Asthma. Basic symptoms can be: thrush; recurring vaginal infections, dry itchy flaky skin, acne, jock itch, athlete's foot, and severe diaper rash. Back to top You can see that these results prove what I've been saying all along. If you do nothing it can only fester into something life threatening. Invasive fungal infections caused by Candida species have increased significantly. Candida now ranks fourth as the most common cause of in-hospital blood infections in the United States and the most common one at one major hospital in Taiwan. Candidiasis is not only associated with a mortality rate of about 30% to 40% but also extends the duration of hospital stay and increases the cost for medical care. Patients with Candidemia usually present an acute septic syndrome that is indistinguishable from bacterial infections, but they may also exhibit a fever of unknown origin. Major risk factors for candidiasis include catheters, intravenous feed lines and broad-spectrum antibiotics. This was a study of a retrospective chart review of patients whose death was associated with Candida infection. The goal was to assist decisions to select the most appropriate empirical therapy for patients suspected to have candidemia. The objective was to determine whether specific risk factors could be identified to help selecting those patients who are more likely infected with Candida albicans. Back to top |
