Candida is a yeast that lives in the body … predominantly in the gut and in small amounts. When the immune system is weak or if the ecosystem in our colon is out of balance, then Candida can overgrow causing a range of symptoms. If you have a number of the following symptoms then its highly likely you have an issue with Candida overgrowth –
- Red/brown spots 2-5 mm in size on the cheeks of your bottom (severe cases)
- Constipation (common)
- Fatigue
- Sugar cravings
- Bad breath
- White coating on the tongue
- Brain fog, trouble concentrating,
- Poor memory
- Hormone imbalance
- Muscle and Joint pain
- Fibromyalgia/Polymyalgia
- Low libedo
- Chronic sinus and allergies
- Bloating and gas
- Irritable Bowel
- Low immunity
- Recurring urinary tract infections
- Recurring thrush
- Irritability
- External fungal infections/rashes including athletes foot
- Dandruff and itchy scalp
- Acne
- History of repeated or prolonged antibiotic use
- High sugar or high yeast diet
A change in diet is often needed to stop feeding the Candida, an online search will guide you in the right direction on what to eat – https://www.thecandidadiet.com and examples of Foods to avoid – https://www.thecandidadiet.com/foodstoavoid
Taking a good quality Probiotic supplement along with a Sporegone herbal supplement will both help to improve the general gut health and reduce the growth rate of the Candida organism. (Contact us for further advice on supplements we recommend.)
However diet alone is often not enough, you may be eating the right things and taking the right herbs, particularly Oregano; you may be taking a good Probiotic supplement, but you need to remove Candida’s home – old stagnant feacal matter.
Candida lives, primarily, in the colon hence why Colonic Hydrotherapy can help speed up the process of Candida elimination by eliminating its habitat – Candida loves a stagnant environment. If you are not having regular colonics you are missing out on a hugely effective way of eliminating large amounts of Candida in one session!
A series of colonic treatments over several weeks whilst following a strict Candida diet with herbal supplements will often see a significant improvement in the more negative symptoms associated with Candida.
When you are eliminating Candida it is vital that you are having a bowel movement daily. If this is not happening, then the toxicity from the Candida dying off is stuck in the colon and reabsorbs through the gut lining back into the bloodstream – thereby making you feel very unwell, and slowing results significantly.
