Candida >> overgrowth has become a serious national problem, mostly in the past few >> years. Our American diet, steroids, antibiotics, and use of birth >> control pills >> have caused this fungus to run wild. For the few who are eating to >>avoid the >> problem, it is becoming a losing battle. Food processors are now putting >> antibiotics into the food. >> >> Candida albicans is a single celled fungus that resides in everyone's >> bowels. When the normal bowel bacteria, acidophilus, has been reduced with >> antibiotics or diet, this fungus runs rampant. This author believes >> that at least >> two-thirds of the population is now suffering in some way because >>of Candida >> overgrowth. It would not be a surprise to learn that this number is >> much higher. >> In a normal environment with normal bowel conditions, the Candida fungus is >> approximately five percent of the bowel flora. In this state, it has two >> beneficial purposes. One purpose is that it aids in initiating >> hormone activity. >> The other is to absorb heavy metals to be passed out with bowel >> movements. One >> theory proclaims that normal Candida will clean out bowel pockets, and >> reduce their reoccurrence. It is just a theory. There are at least >> eight-five >> strains of Candida, the albicans variety being the most prominent. >> More strains >> are found every day. >> >> Evidence indicates that under a normal environment, the Candida albicans >> fungus consumes only dead tissue. When exposed to certain >>chemicals, such as >> birth control pills, cortisone, antibiotics, and petro-chemicals, >>the fungus >> changes dramatically. It starts to colonize, to work as a multi-cellular >> organism. It then adapts to consume living tissue. This starts the >> onslaught of >> thrush, toe fungus, athlete's foot, vaginal yeast, and many other >> conditions. >> >> When the heli-pylori bacteria is present in the bowel, Candida albicans >> causes severe intestinal distress. This bacterium is the cause of >> most stomach >> and intestinal ulcers. Heli-pylori will home under the protective digestive >> tract mucous away from the digestive acids. The acids cannot **digest** it >> there. It then begins weakening the intestinal walls and depleting >> the natural >> protective mucous. When attacking the Candida problem, it is wise to >> keep the >> heli-pylori bacteria in mind. The success of candida control is >> greatly reduced >> as long as this bacterium is present. >> >> Weight problems, vaginal yeast, athlete's foot, scalp problems such as >> dandruff, nail fungus, joint inflammation, poor immune response, headaches, >> allergies, shingles, oral thrush, canker sores, excessive sneezing, >> poor memory, >> brain fog, tooth plaque, hemorrhoids, throat mucous, and skin >>eruptions like >> acne, are all connected with Candida overrun. Let's not forget >> diaper rash. For >> some, the diaper rash and brain fog is on the same end. If you have ever >> used antibiotics or steroids, have had soft drinks or coffee, have eaten >> excessive amounts of sugar or yeast containing foods; this started >> the downward >> spiral to Candida overgrowth. If you have ever had cravings for >> quickly digested >> foods, like sugar or white flour, or cravings for foods that contain yeast, > > or had any of the mentioned problems, you had and still have a Candida >> overgrowth problem. >> >> And **Sleep** in the corner of the eye indicates a Candida problem, so does >> a coated tongue. Speaking of sleep, do you ever feel like you never get >> enough, or you could sleep nine plus hours a night? Always a little >> tired? Maybe a >> little run down? Body aches, joint aches and swelling? Have you had a need >> to have a hysterectomy? Been diagnosed with Epstein Bar Virus? >> Lupus? ALS? MS? >> Arthritis? YOU probably have a Candida problem! >> >> Chrohn's Disease and colonitis start with a parasitical invasion, which can >> be just Candida. Uncontrolled diarrhea may be Candida overgrowth. >> At minimum, >> Candida is involved. All constipation related problems have Candida >> involved. When acidophilus is low, Candida is in overgrowth. Low >> acidophilus is >> another form of constipation. By the way, the severest form of >> constipation is >> diarrhea. >> >> Most allergies can be eliminated with the elimination of Candida >>overgrowth. >> The waste products of Candida flood the lymph system with more toxins than >> it can handle, and the body develops allergies. Candida overgrowth >> drastically >> reduces digestion, allowing undigested food into the blood stream. This >> undigested food causes an immune response, the making of an >> allergy. The immune >> response to the Candida itself is a series of antigens. These >> antigens tax the >> immune system causing a weakened immune response, hence more allergies. >> >> Many reoccurring sinus problems are Candida overgrowth. Toxic bowel from >> Candida leaks toxins into the sinus cavities. The body rids itself of these >> toxins with a **runny nose**. >> >> Hormone problems may be Candida excess, for men or women. Candida >>secretes a >> substance that the body interprets as estrogen. The body reduces its normal >> output of estrogen thinking there is too much, when in fact there >>is far too >> little. End result, the estrogen is deficient. Yea, good *ol PMS may be a >> Candida problem. Maybe that is bad *ol PMS. It is the same way with >> endometriosis, another consequence of Candida overgrowth. Getting >> Candida under control >> might very well fix your hormone imbalance. After all, a Creator would not >> design a body that would need hormone supplements just because it >> had altered or >> stopped cycling. >> >> Headaches, particularly migraine, may be Candida. Bowels overrun with >> Candida form excess mucous as a protection. This causes a very >> toxic, dehydrated >> lymph system. The immune system's response is to build antigens >> that flood the >> lymph. Toxic dehydrated lymph will give you a headache. >> >> The excess bowel mucous from Candida causes a reduction in nutrient >> absorption, particularly calcium and magnesium. Therefore, >> osteoporosis and cartilage >> damage can be caused by Candida. Don't forget the halitosis, bad breath, >> from the disrupted, slow bowel state backing that good smelling air >> up to the >> mouth. My favorite symptom, bloating and gas, can come from >> Candida. When high >> glycemic foods are eaten, the Candida feasts. A by-product of this is gas, >> just like the making of beer. The bad breath and gas makes for interesting >> company, probably lets you know who your friends are, too. >> >> Candida may cause gum problems by weakening the gum below the >>tooth line. As >> stated earlier, most excess plaque is Candida related. Toe fungus is >> Candida. Losing a toenail to fungus is like losing your teeth to it. >> >> Gout and gout like symptoms may be Candida, for it causes uric acid buildup >> from its waste products. Since Candida causes cravings for food >>that is acid >> forming, such as alcohol, white flour, and sugar, this in turn builds up >> excess acids. If you think about it, carpal tunnel syndrome is gout >> of the wrist. >> The inflammation in your wrist may be no more than excess body Candida. >> >> Another sign that excess Candida is in the body is immune system >> dysfunction. This dysfunction, this confusion, may be MS/ALS to > > lupus to arthritis to >> catching cold. Many of the bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament >> deterioration >> complaints are due to Candida. This overgrowth causes acid buildup, which >> eats away at the connective tissues and joint cartilage. Many >> arthritis suffers >> are really suffering from Candida excess. The excess body acid from Candida >> overgrowth settles in the joints, inflaming them. Usually when >>the arthritis >> is severe, there is also a virus causing a low-level immune response, also. >> When this is the case, it is necessary to kill the virus along with the >> Candida. When your arthritis is accompanied with skin eruptions >> and/or severe bowel >> distress, it is Candida overgrowth, period. >> >> There is mounting evidence that high blood pressure can be caused from >> Candida. Some studies show that Candida overgrowth thickens the >> blood. A thick >> liquid takes more pressure to pump it. The acid Candida produces >> irritates the >> blood vessel walls making them ridged, raising blood pressure. >> >> Naturopaths relate high glycemic diet and parasites to ADD or ADS. High >> glycemic foods are foods that are converted into blood sugar >> rapidly, such as >> sugars, white flour, carrots, corn, potatoes, and rice. Attention Deficit >> Disorder, ADD/ADS, does have parasites involved, which may just be Candida >> overgrowth. Candida definitely thrives on high glycemic foods. >> >> This author also believes all cancer sufferers have a Candida overgrowth >> problem. Most natural healers already know there is a parasite problem with >> cancer. This author believes if there is a parasite problem, there >> is a Candida >> problem. Experience and other medical opinion are backing this belief up. >> >> Many emotional problems can be caused by an over abundance of Candida. A >> feeling of inferiority and despair usually accompanies Candida >> overgrowth. Many >> people complain of a feeling of something bad about to happen, as >>if trouble >> is just around the corner. This can lead to panic attacks and deep anxiety. >> Schizophrenia and the bi-polar condition have a connection to Candida. >> Depression is there also, even if it is just in the background. >> Many sufferers talk >> of a need to be anti-social, sometimes to the point of total seclusion. >> Candida overgrowth also causes the repeating feeling of **what's >> the use,** so you >> do what is wrong. The need to nag, to be irritable, *bitchy*, is >>most likely >> candida overrun. It*s a feeling of *inner rage.* I have even heard **I feel >> like I'm going crazy** or **Man, she's a little crazy.** Candida overgrowth >> causes many little side personality traits, which cause us not to be who we >> truly are. >> -------------- next part -------------- >> An HTML attachment was scrubbed... >> URL: /pipermail/attachments/20090203/c98661f7/attachment.html >> _______________________________________________ >> Biofuel mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/sustainablelorgbiofuel >> >> Biofuel at Journey to Forever: >> http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html >> >> Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (70,000 >>messages): >> http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ >> > > > >-- >Tell me, and I will forget. >Show me, and I will remember. >Involve me, and I will understand. - Confucius > >Menno Houtstra >235 Chemin du Mas >38330 St. Ismier, France >Tel: 00 33 (0)4 7652 1331 >Fax: 00 33 (0)8 2672 1828 >SKYPE: mennohoutstra >www.landcarefoundation.org _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list [email protected] http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/sustainablelorgbiofuel Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (70,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
