Default 7 Tips for Combating Systemic Fungal Infections

1. Use both probiotics and prebiotics. Probiotics are supplements containing live cultures of beneficial bacteria such as acidophilus and bifidus. Prebiotics include supplements that help feed any live bacteria, but do not contain them.

2. Avoid yeast-promoting (acidic) foods such as meats, sugars, dairy products, mushrooms, and pickled and malted products.

3. Eat an alkaline diet. The optimum ratio should be 4 parts alkaline-ash food to 1 part acid-ash food. Garlic is excellent for controlling fungi and yeast. Other high-alkaline, fungus inhibiting foods include green and yellow vegetables, beans, and whole, uncracked nuts.

4. Avoid excessive use of antibiotics. Antibiotics wipe out the beneficial bacteria in our bodies while leaving the mycotoxin-generating yeast and fungi intact.

5. Avoid stress. Emotional turmoil stresses the immune system and opens the door for fungal overgrowth. This is why Type A personalities are especially vulnerable to candida.

6. Healthy thyroid function can counteract Candida overgrowth.

7. Use digestive enzyme supplements to maximize protein ***imilation. Inadequate digestion of protein can worsen candida overgrowth and amplify symptoms.
