Candida / Thrush

Fight off infection.

Candida is the term given for an overgrowth of a yeast-like fungus in the body (known as Candida Albicans). When we are healthy, this organism naturally inhabits our digestive system (but) certain factors create an environment that allow for the organism to multiply and overgrow resulting in an imbalance between the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ organisms in the system. An overgrowth of Candida can have a huge impact on one’s wellbeing and vitality as it decomposes cell membranes and drains the body’s immune system, causing symptoms such as tinea and thrush.

Naturopathic treatment strengthens your immune system to help fight off infection by rebalancing the overgrowth of the Candida organism, helping to relieve other digestive symptoms such as flatulence and diarrhea and controlling sugar cravings.
