When it comes to intolerance's most are already familiar with intolerance to lactose which means one is unable to digest the lactose also referred to as the sugar you can find in dairy products. On the other hand few people are aware of intolerance to yeast. The symptoms for this type type of intolerance are harder to correctly diagnose as they can often be confused for other sicknesses. These issues present themselves because of an excessive amount of yeast in one's body. Now this is an easily treatable issue but the issues should be handled as quickly as one can because if left unchecked more severe issues can occur making it harder to treat.
Yeast intolerance means that our body begins to overgrow candida. Candida is a type of yeast like fungi that lives in the damp places of the body which include the intestines, mouth and vagina. Everybody has candida in their system but usually it's growth is held in bay by the beneficial bacteria in our bodies. When this beneficial bacteria is killed off, through poor nutrition or antibiotics for example, the yeast can begin to grow excessively leading to a person getting a candida infection also known as thrush or candidiasis.
There are different reasons one may get a yeast infection. Most often a candida infection is caused by the items we ingest. People who develop a candida intolerance will have to monitor there diets closely and really be conscious of the items their putting in their bodies. Yeast thrives on foods like sugar, fermented foods (alcohol), moldy foods (cheeses), and bread. Starting an anti candida diet is one excellent way of cutting these kinds of items from your health regimen.
Another reason for yeast infection is the use of antibiotics. Certain kinds of antibiotics can actually kill off the beneficial bacteria in our body allowing yeast to grow excessively. If you feel you might have a yeast infection and are currently on any antibiotics it's important you see your doctor immediately.
One last important cause of candidiasis and many other sicknesses and health issues for that matter is stress. That's correct stress! Higher stress levels are often associated with poor nutrition and a lack of proper excercise. It's very important one learns to keep their stress levels in check. I realize that this is easier in theory than it is in real life but it's extremely necessary for the sake of your well being. One good stress reducer is exercise. When you excercise you produce endorphins which raise your mood and increases your overall well being.
Know that you know what can cause a yeast intolerance you can do your share in preventing it. Remember good diet and exercise is all one usually needs to rid yourself of excess candida. It's always good to consult a physician as they can get you on a plan that's right for you.
Good luck and here's to a better tomorrow!
