Systemic Yeast Infections

---

Systemic yeast infection affects our entire body and not localized to any particular organ. A victim can suffer very serious yet varied illnesses that seems to be due to different causes. The is because a single variant of candida fungus is known to produce more than 80 types of mycotoxins and poison that are harmful to the human body. Add to that the other strains of fungi out there that can infest your body and you get the idea. These dangerous mycotoxins can affect different parts of the body in different individuals, depending on the condition of their immune system, health and medication history. For example, someone may get skin rashes, indigestion and bloating problems while another person may get bad breath and so on. There is usually no easily identifiable source of systemic yeast infections as it can be caused by many varied internal and external factors. However, it is commonly agreed that an unhealthy diet coupled with a hectic stressful lifestyle together with long term medication can greatly weaken our body's immunity and increase the risk of systemic candida infections.

The best defense against systemic yeast infections is actually a strong immunity system. The fact is that fungi and mold existence is so common in our daily lives and environment that it is impossible to avoid contact unless you live in a clean room. Systemic yeast infections commonly start from the intestinal organs due to consumption or overgrowth of common medical yeast pathogen such as candida albicans or candida tropicalis. They can even be caused by airborne fungal spores. For example, the Aspergillus is a genus of more than two hundred molds found throughout the world on the skin of starchy foods such as bread and grains, as well as on many fruits and vegetables. The Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus can contaminate foods and produce aflatoxin which is both toxic and carcinogenic, leading to invasive diseases such as paranasal sinus infections, fever, cough, allergies, chest pain or breathlessness. The signs of Aspergillosis diseases tend to overlap with many other illnesses so mis-diagnosis can be common.



The candida genus is considered as part of the human flora that exist normally within our bodies. However, when our body is weakened, producing insufficient amount of NK and Kupffer cells, there are high levels of toxins in the intestinal tracts due to a poor diet or due to the consumption of certain medication such as tetracycline antibiotics, the human immunity system is unable to contain the fungal growth development. External onset of yeast infection can also occur through injuries or cuts on our skin. If the human immune system cannot contain the fungal infestation, the body cells are gradually eaten away and inflammation spreads throughout the human host. This can be seen as poor healing of the wound, constant pus fluid formation etc. Medication is actually not as effective as our natural human immunity against defeating systemic yeast infections and their resulting complications such as crohn's disease, intestinal irritations, gout, reflux, chronic lethargy, allergies, hives, eczema, depression and so on.


Many suffers find that trying to treat the related signs of fungal infections is only a temporary measure. After a while, these problems usually resurface because the true problems of a poor immunity and excessive yeast overgrowth are not being remedied. Long term usage of antibiotics such as minocen, panmycin, prednisone etc can lead to cause an internal system imbalance, providing the perfect environment for candida to grow more than normal. Stress and alcohol weakens your body's immunity and its ability to control the spread of candida yeast. Over consumption of carbohydrates such as sugar, grains and starchy foods etc will facilitate the systemic growth of yeast fungi.
