Candida albicans the most common fungal species that can cause human disease. It can exist in a benign form in various parts of the body such as your skin, genitals and especially the digestive tract and is an integral part of our body ecology.
In immune deprived people however, Candida can multiply and change into a mycelial form (where they take root in tissues and grow) upsetting the ecological balance in the digestive tract.
Normally the ‘friendly’ good bacteria keep Candida and other fungi in check, but when it’s allowed to grow unchecked it can cause problems throughout the body. Candida is a kind of parasite that feeds off the human body and pollutes the system with its toxic waste.
Antibiotic use, birth control pill, HRT, Steroids, a poor diet high in refined carbohydrates and sugar, prolonged stress, lack of hydrochloric acid in the stomach can all contribute to the cause of Candida.
