At best Candida can be distressing and at worst it can be seriously debilitating for sufferers. It is yeast that is responsible for causing oral and vaginal thrush and skin infections in the initial stages. Patients often report these symptoms following a course of treatment with antibiotics. Herbal and natural treatments for Candida may be effective in preventing and treating the symptoms.

The levels of yeast are generally controlled by the beneficial bacteria, produced naturally in your body. Antibiotics and some medical conditions can cause that beneficial bacterium to be destroyed. That allows the yeast to grow and spread throughout your immune system unchecked. Preventative measure to prevent fungus growth has proven beneficial when natural supplements are introduced to the body. Natural remedies are effective in promoting new growth of your good bacteria, which in turn improves control of the Candida yeast.

The internet is a useful source of information on the use of alternative treatments and remedies. Alternatively, a visit to the local health-food supplier is a good way to obtain products, advice and a one to one consultation with a professional practitioner. You should always consult your medical adviser if you have diabetes or some other medical condition that affects your immune system before using alternative remedies. The same applies if you think or know you are pregnant.

You can consult an alternative practitioner who will help you to complete a full assessment of your life-style, diet and symptoms. The action plan you come away with, will be a mix of diet and supplements. Providing you adhere strictly to the plan, your symptoms should show a marked improvement within two to four weeks.

Oils from plants and herbs are not safe to ingest directly. However, in a capsule format, they can be extremely beneficial in the fight against this disorder. Oils that come in capsule format and need to be swallowed without breaking are garlic, peppermint and oregano. Two capsules twice a day is the recommended dosage.

A Candida cleanse diet can be effective in eliminating minor to sever symptoms. You can obtain advice on the foods that need to be eliminated from your diet and foods you can eat from a professional alternative practitioner. Diet should be tailored to your life-style, with the required levels of natural and herbal products.

When using natural treatments for Candida, fiber is an important supplement and should be taken in a soluble form twice a day for best results. Your carbohydrate daily quota will be reduced to almost nil for at least the first few weeks. You will be advised to increase your fluid intake to a minimum of eight glasses of water per day.
