What is candidiasis?
Candida albicans is a form of fungus or yeast that is found naturally in many parts of the healthy body, especially in the digestive tract. Usually levels of Candida are controlled by microbes or other substances which co-exist in the digestive tract.
Everyone has small amount of yeast and other negative microorganisms in the intestinal area which are basically harmless.
However, when the immune system and other defense capabilities are compromised or biologically armed, these microorganisms can multiply very quickly and will interfere with digestion and elimination. If they continue to grow year after year, these parasites, along with the toxins they produce every day, can enter the bloodstream and travel to other tissue where they can weaken the body.
When this overgrowth becomes chronic or excessive, its contribution to disease can be overwhelming.
The “yeast syndrome” is characterized by patients saying they “feel sick all over”. Fatigue, allergies, immune system malfunction, depression, chemical sensitivity, and digestive disturbances are just some of the symptoms patients with the yeast syndrome may experience. Many people have Candida overgrowth or candidiasis without knowing it
Candida is known to release over 79 different types of toxins into the system, resulting in the symptoms above.
What Causes Candida Overgrowth?
Use of antibiotics can result in Candida overgrowth because, along with the bacteria they are supposed to be killing, antibiotics also kill off the 'friendly' micro-organisms (probiotic flora) in the gut. As these micro-organisms are responsible for controlling Candida levels, reduced numbers of probiotic flora will result in an overgrowth of Candida. What else contributes to candidiasis? Antibiotics, antacids, anti-ulcer medications and steroids/cortisones (Use of antibiotics can result in Candida overgrowth because, along with the bacteria they are supposed to be killing, antibiotics also kill off the 'friendly' micro-organisms (probiotic flora) in the gut. As these micro-organisms are responsible for controlling Candida levels, reduced numbers of probiotic flora will result in an overgrowth of Candida.
Following are some products that have been really helpful in helping clients with Candida overgrowth:
Alli-Cinn by Pharmax: 1-2 with each meal (indefinitely)
Pyloricin by Pharmax 1-2 capsules twice daily (for 1-2 months)
1.5) We recommend you use probiotics during this yeast killing phase to start replenishing the beneficial bacteria in the GI as well as to prevent further overgrowth of pathogenic strains which have been found to overgrow during antimicrobial therapy. Take HLC High Potency Powder—1/4 tsp twice daily or HLC High Potency—2 capsules twice daily after meals at least 4 hours after you’ve taken Pyloricin.
2) Second, during the yeast killing phase of month 1, you need to bind the released toxins and excrete them from your body. We suggest:
Intestinal Purifier by Pharmax: one serving daily and/or PaleoGreens by DFH: 1 Tablespoons daily
3) Third, during month 2 you need to aggressively replenish the good bacteria by using these probiotics:
HLC Synbiotic: 1 packet daily (½ packet twice daily) after meals, mixed in water or right off the spoon for 7-14 days. HMF replete will keep on crowding out yeast and other undesirable organisms as well as replenishing your bacterial flora. HLC Synbiotic packets is the highest potency probiotic products and may contain a minimum of 130 billion total L. acidophilus (two strains), B. bifidum and lactis, and L. salivarius in each packet. Each of the five different strains attach in different areas of the epithelial tissue in the intestinal tract (small and large intestines). This probiotic is a microbial replacement program for the gastrointestinal tract intended for 7 to 14 days depending on the severity of the problem.
You may also use HLC Intensive capsules instead of HLC Synbiotic powder. The therapeutic dose is 2 capsules twice daily after meals. HLC CandaClear : For women with vaginal yeast, one suppository at bedtime.
After 7-14 days, take the HLC High Potency Powder—1/4 tsp twice daily, or HLC High Potency Capsules—2 caps twice daily after meals.
4) Finally, restoring proper Immune Function is one of the key goals in treatment and long term prevention of Candidiasis.These supplements offer immune support:
Sugar:
Sugar is the chief nutrient of Candida Albicans. It is well accepted that restriction of sugar intake is an absolute necessity in the treatment of chronic candidiasis.
Milk And Dairy Products:
There are several reasons to restrict or eliminate the intake of milk in patients with chronic candidiasis:
The high lactose content promotes the overgrowth of Candida
Milk is one the most frequent food allergens
Milk may contain trace levels of antibiotics which can further disrupt the GI bacterial flora and promote Candida Overgrowth.
Mold And Yeast—Containing Food:
Patients with chronic candidiasis should avoid foods with a high content of yeast or mold, including alcoholic beverages, cheeses, dried fruits and peanuts.
Food Allergies:
Food allergies are another common finding with patients with yeast syndrome. It’s always best to eliminate food that you know you are allergic to.
FOS + L-Glutamine by Genestra
1) First, it’s important to kill off the yeast and bad bacteria causing the infection by using:
Alli-cinn by Pharmax: 1-2 with each meal (indefinitely)
Pyloricin by Pharmax 1-2 capsules twice daily (for 1-2 months)
Can Albex 30x by Genestra—7 drops twice daily (until symptoms subside)
1.5) We recommend you use probiotics during this yeast killing phase to start replenishing the beneficial bacteria in the GI as well as to prevent further overgrowth of pathogenic strains which have been found to overgrow during antimicrobial therapy. Take HLC High Potency Powder 1/4 tsp twice daily or HLC High Potency capsules 2 capsules twice daily after meals at least 4 hours after you’ve taken the Pyloricin and other antimicrobials.
2) Second, during the yeast killing phase of month 1, you need to bind the released toxins and excrete them from your body. We suggest:
Ultra Fiber Plus one serving daily and/or
PaleoGreens 3 capsules or 1/2 tsp. twice daily
3) Third, during month 2 you need to aggressively replenish the good bacteria by using these probiotics:
HLC Synbiotic Intensive: 1 packet daily (½ packet twice daily) after meals, mixed in water or right off the spoon for 7-14 days. HLC Synbioitic Intensive will keep on crowding out yeast and other undesirable organisms as well as replenishing your bacterial flora. HLC Synbiotic Intensive is the highest potency HLC product and may contain a minimum of 130 billion total L. acidophilus (two strains), B. bifidum and lactis, and L. salivarius in each packet.
