Candida, Candida, Candida!

What is candida anyway? And what’s it doing in your body?  Did you know that Candida can help to trigger sinus and yeast infections, allergies, colds, acne, rashes, arthritic pain and weight gain to your middle section?  Not to mention cravings for Breads and Sweets!  Would you like to enjoy your holiday treats without getting bloated, constipated, having sudden snack attacks and that unwanted tummy pooch?

Everyone has Candida albicans naturally in their body at balanced levels.  This helps to digest food in the intestine so you can have energy.  The problem comes with Sugar, High Fructose Corn Syrup, and anti-biotics!  Each of these and other culprits like excito-toxins, MSG, and food additives can cause your Candida to become like a “weed” something you definitely don’t want too much of!

Imagine “weeds” on Steroids! Now you can get the feel of what Sugar, High Fructose Corn Syrup and their buddies do to Candida.  Your poor intestines have no other choice but to bloat as the Candida yeast grows.  Can you say Beer Belly?  When it overgrows it immediately begins to rob nutrients from your body and create toxins that are stored in your tissues.  This can make you look heavier than you really are and cause all sorts of cravings.  Thus it becomes a continual cycle of wanting sweets to feed your Candida and it can become a driving force in your life with mood swings, depression, even anger.  This is because your body is starving for nutrients that the “weeds” are using and the blood sugar swings will affect your mood and your hormones.

Anti-biotics are a different story; when you take a round you kill most everything good and bad in your intestines.  This creates an imbalance because weeds and Candida tend to always grow back faster then you desire.  There is a way to be proactive if you have the need to take anti-biotics and that is to take pro-biotics like acidophilus and bifidus during and then immediately after the rounds.

Each of the products can also be purchased individually please read the descriptions online.  You can also go to your local health food store and search for Oil of Oregano, Grapefruit Seed Extract and a probiotic. Unfortunately this is always a bit of a gamble due to a large variety and because some products have low standards.

The next step is to make the switch from using sugars (white sugar, raw cane sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup and the like) to Candida fighting Xylitol or Stevia.  Xylitol is a sugar replacement that comes from the fiber of fruits and vegetables.  It is low glycemic and low calorie, making it safe for Diabetics and for those watching their calories.  I think I just heard a Diabetic jumping up and down with excitement!  Yes you can now have sweet tasting snacks that will Not affect your insulin levels!  Diabetes is on a rapid rise be sure your friends find out about this fantastic tasting sugar replacement.

When recipes call for Sugar you can substitute it with the same amount of Xylitol. Xylitol is more expensive and you are worth it!  Below is a link to our anti-candida Pumpkin Pie Recipe that tastes amazing!  While you are there Check out the “Revamped” Food Beautiful website and some of the new recipes we are adding weekly! http://www.foodbeautiful.com/recipes-detail.php?rec_id=17
