- Rodney Dangerfield and Candida12 mon
- In the medical world, Candida seems to be the Rodney Dangerfield of infections, it gets no respect. If you go to an MD, he's more likely to tell you that it's all in your head and prescribe antidepressents, than take you seriously. If he doesn't outright dismiss you, he may also add that only patients with severly depressed immune systems can get candida. Is this a justified response?

Rodney Dangerfield was a comedian and most comics will tell you that they do better in some cities than others. They may ”kill” in New York City, but bomb in Los Angeles. Candida seems to do just as well. ... read more

”This not only demonstrates that the composition of our microflora has a decisive role in the development of chronic illnesses, but also that the key cells causing illness can develop an anti-inflammatory ’twin’,” explained Dr. Christina Zielinski, first author of the study.

- Yeast Infections13 mon
- There is still much to be learned about the regulation and maintenance of these tissues, as they are involved in a complex dance between many systems in the body. Systemic and local imbalances created by the use of antibiotics appear to be one of the main contributing factors to vaginal infections.
Vaginal infections are commonly related to candida albicans. Some sources indicate that most vaginal infections are caused by bacteria (bacterial vaginosis), not yeast/fungus. Unfortunately, the medical profession takes a knee-jerk approach to diagnosis and treats the majority of these as yeast infections. This can prolong the condition and contribute to ongoing vaginal flora imbalances, as well as misinforms the patient.

- Candida and Diabetes14 mon
- Researchers at UCSD discovered that protease enzymes can cause diabetes, hypertension, and immune system suppression (3 common symptoms of candida infections).
Common symptoms associated with candida infections include hypoglycemia and insulin resistance. These often occur together in many people. Hypoglycemia is low blood sugar and insulin resistance is high blood sugar. Left alone long enough in the body, they can develop into diabetes. So what’s the connection with candida?

- Are You Experiencing Die-Off?15 mon
- This classic pattern of die-off is not what is commonly seen with natural anti-candida protocols that use herbs and non-prescription substances. As opposed to antibiotics which suppress immune system function, natural products are known to enhance immune system function.
The Herxheimer Reaction was originally described by Adolf Jarisch and Karl Herxheimer and originally named the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. It traditionally has been associated with the treatment of syphyllis with antibiotics and other compounds.
The Herxheimer, or Die-off Reaction as it has commonly come to be known, can be described as when the death of bacteria or fungus and the leaking out of all of their intracellular components into the surrounding tissues and fluids occurs faster than the body can remove them. This is commonly associated with the use of antibiotics. Classic signs o ... read more
- HCL, Acid Reflux, and Health15 mon
- By suppressing HCL levels, you lose absorption of calcium, protein, iron, iodine, B12, Folic acid, Zinc, Magnesium, and other minerals. Current antacid products are starting to carry a Black Box Warning about their use leading to osteoporosis.
Excess stomach acid (HCL) has traditionally been treated as a result of low HCL levels that creates cycles of over- and under-production. With the advent of direct-to-consumer marketing by pharmaceutical companies, the public was entrained to believe that this was purely an excess HCL problem that needed to be suppressed with antacids, leaving behind the science, physiology, and wisdom of the body.

- Antibiotics, Candida albicans, and Other Pathogens15 mon
- "Antibiotics make people more vulnerable to microbe-mediated damage because they alter the microbiota, or the normal microbial flora, and the balanced relationships between the microbes that reside in the mucosal niches in the body and the host structures that support these communities.
This article from the Departments of Microbiology and Immunology and Medicine at Albert Einstein College of Medicine is one of the best articles that I’ve read in a while as it addresses the idea and concept of pathogenicity very well. At the same time, I consider it to be an indictment on the poor state of medicine as it is currently practiced. Conversely, it vindicates the centuries old approach to healing as practiced by holistic doctors around the world - KEEP READING - http://candidaplan.com/blog/631/albert-einstein-antibiotics-and-candida/

- Oxygen and Candida albicans15 mon
- Although we are talking about introducing oxygen into the intestinal tract, what we have just described is the equivalent effect from taking antibiotics
Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on the planet. The Oxygen content of the air we breathe is typically 19-21%. The rest of the air is approximately 78-80% nitrogen and 1% of other gases.
The oxygen content in the body of a living organism is usually highest in the respiratory system, (the lungs and oral cavity) and in the blood.. O2 diffuses through membranes in the lungs and into red blood cells. Hemoglobin in the red blood cells binds O2. A liter of blood can dissolve 200 cm3 of O2
To measure blood oxygen levels we look at two different measurements, the blood oxygen satu ... read more

- IBS/IBD and the Healing Paradox19 mon
- Having an open mind creates the window through which are options expand and our likelihood of success increases. As Thomas Edison said, "When you think you've exhausted all possibilities, remember this: you haven't."
Irritable Bowel Disease/Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBD/IBS) are functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorders characterized by recurring symptoms of abdominal discomfort or pain associated with an altered bowel habit, either constipation, diarrhea, or both. In IBD/IBS, the GI tract may function differently, processing more slowly (or more quickly) than the average person. Science continues to validate holistic approaches that demonstrate successful resolution of these conditions and along the way, new understandings of a poorly understood digestive system.

- Blood Sugar Balance Protocol21 mon
- If you get tired, irritable, sleepy, or moody when you go too long without food, you most likely have a low blood sugar issue (hypoglycemia).
Do you have a blood sugar imbalance?
For balancing the ecosystem of the intestinal tract and the body, I recommend doing the Candida Plan. If you have blood sugar imbalances, you should address these also at the same time.
If you get tired, irritable, sleepy, or moody when you go too long without food, you most likely have a low blood sugar issue ( hypoglycemia).
Hypoglycemia can affect the following:
estrogen
progesterone
testosterone
and thyroid hormones
suppress the immune system
cause adrenal fatigue
sugar cravings

- Gluten Allergies and Candida albicans21 mon
- In an effort to better understand the rapid increase in Celiac Disease, researchers have been looking for clues as to what could cause such an increase. Enter the age of antibiotics.
Hwp-1, also known as Hyphal Wall Protein-1, is an amino acid within the cell wall of Candida albicans that enables Candida cells to attach to the intestinal cells. The sequence of amino acids that make up Hwp-1 are identical or highly similar to the proteins, α-gliadin and γ-gliadin found in gluten (Wheat, barley, rye) products. When Candida attaches to the intestinal wall, the body’s immune system responds. The cells of the immune system don’t recognize the Hwp-1 as being separate from the intestinal cell. It sees them as both being a part of the same foreign material. From that ... read more
- Candida Myth #7 - Oxygen Kills Candida27 mon
- Dr. Jeff explains another erroneous myth. Candida Albicans is a facultative anaerobe, which means it can exist in oxygen-rich (mouth, skin) and oxygen-depleted (intestinal tract, body tissues) environments. Some studies indicate that is harder to eliminate in an oxygen-rich environment. That seems to be more true of thrush, but not as true for skin infections.

Introduction
Many of the doctors who have consulted with me have asked for more information and references to better educate themselves, their patients and fellow doctors. To assist them, I gathered together a few of the references that we are including in our online Candida Library. In this article, you’ll find over 75 research references that provide information on how Candida goes from a harmless normal constituent of the gastrointestinal tract to a pathogenic systemic problem that can affect anyone and everyone. I’m providing this information here for you to become better e ... read more
- Green Eggs and Ham3 y
- Although the chance of an egg containing Salmonella Enteritidis is rare in the United States, at mass-production facilities like Wright County Egg in Galt, Iowa the odds increase dramatically to the recent high of 36,000 eggs per week.
Despite its popularity as one of Dr. Seuss’s most popular books, the idea of green eggs and ham has never sounded appealing to me, except when the only other option is salmonella eggs from Iowa. Over the weekend, two farms in Iowa recalled over half a billion eggs after over 1,200 people had become sickened by Salmonella during the past few months. The two high-production commercial farms were Wright County Egg (380 million eggs recalled) and Hillandale Farms (170 million eggs recalled). For Hillandale Farms, this was their first recall in their 45-year history. Wright County Egg in Galt, ... read more
