Candida: Causes of Yeast Infections

There are three main activities in one's life that will destroy the friendly probiotic bacteria, weaken the body, and lay the ground for Candida yeast infections.

1 -- Processed Foods

First is the typical American diet with high amounts of cooked and refined processed foods that poison and place a tremendous burden on the digestive organs. Most of the foods we eat are very negative and overly acidifying, creating hardships on the stomach, liver and intestines. Good food that is as natural as possible gives you energy and bad food that is heavily processed, cooked and devitalized takes it away.

If enough bad food is consumed for a long enough period of time, you will become as your food and eventually your body will suffer the consequences. Overeating of bad food inhibits the proliferation of the friendly bacteria and defeats their purpose by placing a heavier burden on their natural functions. There is literally too much for them to do and it becomes impossible for them to detoxify and neutralize all the negatives that we put into the body. If you eat bad, processed food the majority of the time, your need for the friendly flora is much higher.

WHEN IT COMES TO HEALTH OF THE BODY, YOU SURELY "REAP WHAT YOU SOW."

2 -- Man-Made Chemicals

The second destructive substance to the body is man-made chemicals. They are everywhere -- in the air we breathe, in our water supplies, in medicines, drugs, insecticides, etc. However, the main source of chemicals in the modern American diet is through our foods.

Much of what we eat has a diverse amount of chemical additives for commercial purposes, added without any regard to the health of those eating them.

Companies claim the artificial chemicals in our foods are safe, but it is a known fact that chemicals have a cumulative effect within the body and will eventually destroy living cells, weaken the vital organs and contribute to disease. When these chemicals are deposited in large enough amounts over a long enough period of time. These chemicals destroy not only the life of the body, but also the friendly flora in both the small and large intestines.

3 -- Parasites and Pathogenic Organisms

The third main cause of great body dysfunction, pain and fatigue is the presence of invading parasites such as viruses, bacteria, yeast colonies, amoebas, worms and other pathogenic microorganisms.

Such parasites destroy living tissue, create holes in the intestinal wall, interfere with digestion, absorption and elimination and pollute and poison the body.

You are as strong as your weakest link. Toxins that enter the bloodstream are removed by the liver and kidneys if they are working properly. When massive amounts of pollutants keep coming into the body on a daily basis, the liver and kidneys begin to lose efficiency. These poisons begin to accumulate and are stored in the weakest areas of the body first. The more toxins stored in one area, the more the future toxins are attracted to that same area, where the body's defenses are weakest. This compounds an already bad situation, and the weaker the area gets, the more it breaks down. As the cells die and degenerate, you will have inflammation, pain, tenderness and eventually disease.

If there are no excess toxins in the body and no interference in cellular activity by contaminants, there can be no disease or pain. It is the toxins being stored in the tissues that make your life miserable and contribute in some way to most all health problems.

IT IS NOT THE PRESENCE OF THE GOOD THAT MAKES YOU GOOD, BUT THE ABSENCE OF THE BAD.

The part of the body to deteriorate first under physical abuse from bad diet, chemicals and parasites is the digestive system, leading to the destruction of the friendly bacteria.

From Birth

Actually, for many people, a yeast infection or a lack of the friendly bacteria can be established the moment you are born. Both friendly and unfriendly microorganisms are picked up at birth as a newborn baby passes through the birth canal of its mother.

If the mother is not adequately supplied with the friendly flora, her baby will also be lacking. If she should happen to have a yeast infection anywhere in her body, then the Candida or a predisposition to a yeast infection can be transferred at birth to the baby.

If the child is not breast-fed (mother's milk contains and supports the friendly flora to help the baby), Candida will begin to grow slowly throughout life. When you consider all the white flour and sugary candy children eat, you begin to wonder how we survive. This is how and when many adults created the foundation for a yeast problem.

Amoebas and Other Parasites

Amoebas are very destructive micro-organisms that can inhabit the intestines and wreak havoc, killing large numbers of friendly flora. Amoebas such as Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, Cyrptospordium, Blastocystis hominis and Boas oppleri can weaken and destroy the friendly flora in the intestines.

These parasites come into the body from contaminated water and meats that are not cooked well enough to destroy any microscopic eggs. Many rivers, lakes, creeks and ponds in the United States are contaminated but still pass many government inspection standards for health. In countries like Mexico, Italy, and India, lower public standards allow human and animal wastes to seep into the ground and pollute drinking water sources with amoebas. Playing, swimming or drinking this type of water in rural areas will, in many cases, create an amoebic infection. If you have visited any of these other countries, you probably have an amoebic infection to some degree.

In fact, it is estimated that one third of the population may have amoebae parasites in their intestines. Once established, they will multiply very quickly and wipe out the friendly bacteria as they grow.

Amoebas can also eat away the villi and microvilli in the small intestines causing severe mal-absorption problems along with serious constipation and diarrhea. This can cause extreme fatigue, rectal bleeding, rob the body of essential nutrients, irritate and create pain and burning sensations in the intestines, and make you miserable.

Almost all amoebae infections will create a Candida yeast overgrowth. If you believe you have an amoebae infection, then have a stool test done through a qualified physician or practitioner for possible amoebae/yeast analysis. Follow the advice of your physician or health care practitioner to remove the amoebas and begin using Friends for Life to replenish the friendly flora right away. Our powerful super strains actually help destroy Candida by producing chemicals that are friendly to the human system but harmful to yeast, as well as removing the environment that supports yeast proliferation.
