Naturopathic Treatments for Candida & Yeast Issues

Natural remedies for candida and yeast issues allow for a healthy balance of the bacterial flora living in or on the body without medically disrupting your natural biome. If you have digestive or vaginal discomfort, and are looking for a natural remedy for candida, book an appointment with a   from Integrative Health Centre to evaluate the balance of candida in your body.

About Candida and Yeast Issues

Candida is a fungal organism that lives primarily in the digestive system and vaginal canal of the human body. What allows this organism to remain in balance is the good bacteria that also live within the body, most importantly in the digestive and vaginal canal. With the overabundance of antibacterial products in our environment, the good bacteria can be decreased resulting in the candida organisms overpopulating the mucus membranes of the digestive and vaginal canal causing uncomfortable symptoms. Symptoms of gas and bloating, sugar cravings, itching, pain, fatigue, change in bowel movements, discharge and overall discomfort are all indicators that the bacterial flora in the body may not be optimal and often a simple yeast cleansing protocol may be helpful in restoring the bacterial flora to get rid of the symptoms.

Natural Remedies for Candida

Traditional medical therapies for candida often involve targeted or broad spectrum antibiotics that harm the overall natural balance of the body's microbiome. While there is a time and a place for such treatments, natural remedies for candida will work with the body's existing flora to help re-establish balance. Before considering naturopathic or natural remedies for candida and yeast issues, the first step is understanding the state of the natural bacterial flora. A live blood cell analysis is often helpful to evaluate the digestive and yeast status within the body and may be done in the second visit to determine the effectiveness of a yeast protocol. After the analysis, your naturopathic doctor will outline a yeast cleansing protocol or other natural remedies for candida to support the natural bacterial flora.
