Eliminating Candida
One of the primary defenses that you have to kill Candida yeast infections is a strong and resilient immune system.
If for any reason your immune system is weakened or not performing as well as it should, then that naturally makes you more susceptible to infections.
Yeast infections are far more capable of wreaking havoc within your body if your immune system is weaker than it should be for some reason.
Many medical conditions and the treatments that are used to remedy those conditions weaken your immune system as a natural side-effect.
For example, anyone who suffers from HIV, leukemia or any other virulent form of cancer is going to find that both the medical condition itself weakens their immune system and that the treatment used to remedy that condition makes the situation even worse.
You should approach your problem on a totally 'holistic' whole-body basis, and change your life in whatever ways are necessary to reduce your susceptibility to medical ailments.
Medical professionals nowadays have less and less time available to deal with each individual patient that they have to see.
Given this fact, it is almost unbelievable that doctors are even capable of getting all of the decisions correct.
When it comes to treating yeast infections, however, it is still relatively common for medical practitioners to prescribe antibiotics as the primary treatment resource.
It is now widely understood that, rather than improving the situation, antibiotics are far more likely to exacerbate it.
In addition, it becomes considerably more likely that any future yeast infections that might have happened without antibiotics become almost completely inevitable because of them.
If you have to take antibiotics for anything other than the shortest period of time, then your system does develop a degree of reliance to those antibiotics.
Consequently, your own natural ability to resist diseases and infections is reduced, and once the additional 'protective layer' that is provided by these antibiotics is removed, you are naturally more susceptible to future infections.
In short, if you have previously been taking a wide range of antibiotics for any other medical condition, your natural immune system is now slightly weaker than it was previously, and you are therefore more likely to contract a yeast infection.
If your medical practitioner diagnosed a yeast infection and prescribed antibiotics as the primary treatment for your condition, here is what is likely to happen when you start taking those drugs.
The antibiotic that you are taking will undoubtedly be an effective bacteria killer.
Unfortunately, antibiotics are powerful rather than smart, and they do not have the ability to distinguish between good bacteria and the bad kind.
Consequently, if you take antibiotics to kill Candida yeast infection, they will kill all bacteria indiscriminately.
Evidence of this can be seen from the fact that it is normally extremely difficult to prepare a yeast culture from the skin of a healthy person who has not taken antibiotics.
However, within only 48 hours of starting to take tetracycline (a commonly prescribed antibiotic), it becomes easy to prepare such a culture from almost anyone.
So, it is now pretty widely accepted that, as far as yeast infections are concerned, antibiotics are probably 'Public Enemy Number 1', and that it is the widespread exposure to antibiotics that has made each of us more susceptible to yeast infections.
Unfortunately, it is not as easy to kill Candida medically as it might first appear.
Although antibiotics do not kill viruses or viral infections (they only exterminate bacteria), it is extremely common for antibiotics to be prescribed for even the most common viral conditions such as colds and flu.
Things to avoid What you are eating could be your demise when it comes to Candida and so you could change your diet to a raw diet instead.
To kill Candida, try to avoid anything that contains white sugar such as sodas and fruit drinks that are artificially sweetened.
Avoid white rice, white flour and refined cereals.
Try to stick to foods that contain whole grains such as brown rice and fresh green vegetables.
