Feel Sick? It Could be Candida


Do you wake up everyday and feel sick almost like you're hung-over? Do you have allergies that never quit and almost seem worse than ever? Do you feel like a cold is just lingering around and isn't going away like it should? Have you taken an anti-biotic in the past 2 years for more than 15 days?

If you answered yes! To any of the above questions then you very likely have developed Candida.

Candida is a yeast that is naturally occurring in everyone. The thing is certain factors can occur in your life that can suppress your immune system and allow the yeast to overgrow to the point of it resembling an infections.
Some of the major symptoms connected to Candida are:
Chronic Sinusitis, Allergies, Asthma, Digestive problems, Brain-Fog, Mood Swings, Insomnia, Chronic Fatigue, Acne, Depression, Eczema and much more.

If you answered that you have indeed taken a anti-biotic in the past 2 years for more than 15 days and wonder why it's of any relevance I'll give you an example. Imagine that your body is like a garden that has a few weeds in it, instead of picking them out one by one you decide to just tear out the entire garden. Thus killing off all other plants and life that was in the garden as well. Now take this example, picture your body, throw in some anti-biotics and voila! You've got Candida in your Garden!

Your naturally occurring bacteria is completely wiped out when you take an anti-biotic, so the bad bacteria (Weeds) are killed off as well. However we all know how difficult weeds are to kill and how they simply come right back. However the good bacteria (Roses) are not. This is simply because after eliminating them the weeds took over.

So just like in the example of weeds in your garden, Candida is able to come back and multiply at an alarming rate. Once the damage has been done it's almost impossible for your body to correct it without having some beneficial factors put into place such as a diet that doesn't feed the yeast. Anti-Fungals to eliminate the Candida development that has already begun and lastly Probiotics.

Probiotics are of the most importance because they give your body the power it needs to eliminate yeast and get it back down to size. They are your beneficial bacteria and unless you eat unsweetened yogurt on a daily basis you will need to use some of these.
If you've felt sick for a long time it is likely that a deeper cause beyond Candida is occurring in your body and making you feel sick all the time.
