| But when this system gets out of balance – through use of antibiotics, birth control pills or improper diet – candida cells develop rapidly, overwhelm the friendly bacteria, and create potentially serious results. Imbalance of intestinal flora is sometimes referred to as dysbiosis. The effects range from vaginitis to irritable bowel syndrome, food allergies, migraines, asthma and a host of other chronic health conditions. Fill out one of our Yeast Questionares to determine whether dysbiosis plays a role in your health and try our suggestions for reviving your body's natural balance. |
| Do you suffer from fatigue? Foggy thinking? Crave sugar in the form of sweet foods, candy or alcohol? Crave breads? Have skin problems? Candida overgrowth can be the cause of these & other symptoms, such as joint pain, gas, bloating, depression, constipation and diarrhea... the list goes on. |
| * Advanced Light Field Microscopy Blood Work to see how much yeast there is and if it is a problem * Nutritional counseling on Yeast Free Diet * Herbs for Killing Yeast * Oral Pro Biotics and other Supplements to Rebuild the Intestinal Flora * Colonics to clean out the Yeast from Colon * Rectal Implants to ensure for reflorastation of Intestines |

| Yeasts are single cell fungi living organisms that are neither animal nor vegetable. They live on the surfaces of all living things, including fruits, vegetables, grains, and your body. They're a part of the "microflora" . One family of yeasts, Candida albicans, normally lives on the warm inner creases of the digestive tract, vagina and skin. Healthy women have a natural community of Candida albicans organisms in all three locations. When your immune system is healthy, "friendly" intestinal bacteria like Bifidobacteria bifidum and Lactobaccillus acidophilus create a symbiotic system with the yeast that keeps everything in balance. |
| What more to know about Yeast / Candida? |
| Yeast Overgrowth is actually more common than most people would think. It is somewhat like a modern plague, accept not like a plague at all, but rather a result of modern ways of living and modern western medicine. If we lived according to natural laws as the animals do, then we would not have upset the bacterial eco-system of our intestines, other organs, and body in general. The best metaphor to visualize to imagine the body as it should be verses a body that is riddles with yeast, is to imagine a healthy vibrant garden teaming with healthy life, or a sick dry and diseased garden who plants are being attacked by insects and whose soil if full of mushrooms and other fungi (yes yeast is a fungi) that are decomposing the plants. There are certain microscopic fungi within the digestive tract that are there to break down the body when it is buried in the Earth, but do to the effects of modern food and its various toxicities and to modern medicines especially antibiotics, the terrain of the bacterial balance of the body has been compromised anf yeast growing and decomposing and acidifying the living body. Candida is hard to diagnose by regular Western medicine, but a good natural health care practitioner will know what to ask to determine its presence and its severity. |
