Candida – An Intestinal Yeast Epidemic on the Rise!
Already in the time of the ancient Greeks, the Candida fungus was mentioned as a health risk. In our intestines, there are about 400 species of microorganisms. When we change our diet or take certain medications, entire “cultures” of intestinal flora can arise or disappear.
The bacteria in the body can be divided into two main groups: beneficial and harmful. It is especially important for the intestinal flora that the intestinal walls are well populated with large and dense colonies of friendly acidophilus and bifidus bacteria. Coliform bacteria, salmonella, parasites, and fungi are examples of harmful groups within the intestinal flora.
Candida albicans (also known as monilia) is a simple yeast fungus that is part of the body’s natural flora. Its normal function is to help break down undigested food. However, if overstimulated by excessive junk food, this normally harmless organism can transform into a harmful, fungus-like parasitic form with long, root-like filaments (mycelia).
When the Candida fungus attaches itself to the intestinal wall, the permeability of the intestines increases, allowing it to spread throughout the body via the bloodstream, invading and damaging body cells. This parasitic form produces over 80 different toxins that burden all bodily functions, including hormones, neurotransmitters, and the liver’s detoxification capacity.
