Candida Yeast connection to IBS

Candida Yeast connection to IBS

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common digestive and gastrointestinal disorder (GI) characterized by multiple symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and even constipation. While the exact cause of IBS remains unclear, emerging research suggests that fungal overgrowth, particularly Candida yeast, may play a role in exacerbating symptoms.

What is Candida?

Candida is a type of yeast that naturally resides in the human body, particularly in the GI tract or gut, mouth, and skin. Under normal conditions, it coexists with other microorganisms, maintaining a balance of 10 to 1 with probiotics. However, factors such as antibiotic use, a high-sugar diet, excessive alcohol use and weakened immune function can lead to an overgrowth of Candida, known as candidiasis. This imbalance may disrupt gut flora and potentially contribute to digestive issues.

The Link Between Candida and IBS

While not everyone with IBS has a Candida overgrowth, some studies indicate that individuals with IBS may have higher levels of this yeast overgrwoth. The presence of excess Candida can lead to increased intestinal permeability, often referred to as “leaky gut.” This condition allows toxins and undigested food particles to enter the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and immune responses that can worsen IBS symptoms.

Symptoms associated with Candida overgrowth can mimic or exacerbate those of IBS, including:

  • Bloating and gas: The fermentation of undigested carbohydrates by Candida can produce gas, leading to discomfort.
  • Changes in bowel habits: Overgrowth may contribute to diarrhea or constipation due to its impact on gut motility.
  • Food sensitivities: Candida can create a reaction to certain foods (leaky gut), complicating the already challenging dietary restrictions for IBS sufferers.

Managing Candida and IBS

To address potential Candida overgrowth, a multifaceted approach is often recommended:

  1. Dietary changes: Reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates can help limit Candida growth. Incorporating antifungal foods like garlic, coconut oil, and fermented foods can also support gut health.

  2. Probiotics: Supplementing with probiotics can help restore the balance of beneficial bacteria in the gut, potentially reducing Candida levels and alleviating IBS symptoms.

  3. Medications: In some cases, antifungal medications may be necessary to manage Candida overgrowth, particularly if it leads to significant health issues.

  4. Lifestyle modifications: Stress management and regular exercise can enhance immune function and overall gut health.

In conclusion, while not all IBS patients will experience issues with Candida, understanding its potential role can provide valuable insights into managing symptoms. If your body presents with any of these issues then schedule a consult with us (National Candida Center) to discover natural alternatives to drugs and surgery for an improved quality of life.

CANDISOL beat yeast naturally

CANDIDA YEAST

… is not the enemy. It is a normal part of your inner ecology or microbiome. It should be in a 1:10 balance with other healthy probiotic flora. That ratio keeps it under control. When a toxic shock happens (like antibiotics, excess alcohol, Rx drugs like birth control or acid imbalance – read our pH Miracle post) that causes an inner ecology disturbance. Your healthy flora dies off and is replaced by Yeast Overgrowth and that’s when problems appear called Dysbiosis (dys-function of the biosis or microbiome) which can present as ANY, some, or all, of these symptoms – gas, bloating, itching, burning, constipation, diarrhea, skin rash, headaches, fatigue, brain fog, weight gain or loss, etc). Our website (www.NationalCandidaCenter.com) has 4 free tests for you to take in order to discover how serious is your problem.

POISONs BODY

All living things eat and eliminate waste. When candida overgrows into a yeast infection it eats your food leaving you malnourished and tired. Naturally, you crave some sweets to boost energy. This feeds the candida yeast. Then it creates toxic waste (called mycotoxins) which clogs and disturbs your entire body causing symptoms such as itching, redness, brain fog (why did I come in this room?) unclear thinking, dizziness, difficulty focusing, depression, anxiety and emotional up and down or vaginal discharge,

REMOVE Phase

Pharmaceutical solutions can cause worse problems so we use them only as a last resort. Fortunately, candida yeast can be controlled naturally. Herbs can cause resistance just like an antibiotic. Both can create a common condition called “die-off” which simply means an overwhelm of the body’s natural defense and elimination. A better solution is found in a natural product called CANDISOL.

An Enzymes Solution

Candida yeast is a unique category of living creature. It is neither a plant nor an animal yet has qualities of both. It is a fungus. The Fungus Family has 4 members – molds, yeasts, fungus and mushrooms. Anyone with a yeast candida problem should never eat mushrooms of any kind. The significance here is that its qualities as a plant mean it creates a bark-like dense fiber cell wall for protection. CANDISOL contains very specific naturally occurring enzymes in the proper dose to digest that outer protective layer. When taken properly (in the right dose and frequency) the enzymes digest the protective cell wall layer and the yeast dies. Good riddance.

Your 5 paths of Elimination

During this major healing transformation you are now undergoing, we want to maximize all the pathways of elimination. Doing so will minimize your ‘healing crisis’ (aka, ‘die off’ or Hurtzheimer Reaction – all the same thing). Different types of gunk exits the body through different pathways and all is well unless one clogs up which in turn backs up the others and those poor guys will have to work harder to carry the extra load. Soon we have a stinking mess. On the other hand, when all 5 channels are open and clear, everything works just fine.

Here’s how to enhance the 5 Pathways of Elimination in your body that you can directly, with powerful intention, influence:

  1. URINATION. If you are drinking Nitro super Greens daily (one cup hourly) then you will be urinating every 30-40 minutes. This is a good flush of all tissue. The Nitro super Greens will not only hydrate the body but also help alkalize blood and enrich hemoglobin (and oxygen). You can take a two day break on the weekend. You can also increase the amount of Super Greens from 1 to 2 scoops per quart. You can add lemon, lime or xylitol for taste.
  2. DEFICATION. This means a regular daily bowel movement with a large stool. No exceptions. If you are eating the proper diet* and taking fiber plus probiotics you should be on target. Also, remember to SQUAT when moving the bowels (if you need instructions, ask for the Squat PEP Step info). Proper diet and taking fiber means 4 day rotation (for leaky gut) and medical smoothie (very specific, not raw) probiotics means based on our inner ecology stool test.
  3. PERSPIRATION. We also want to maximize the largest organ of your body to eliminate toxins. That would be your skin – also called the 3rd kidney. It will ooze all kinds of gunk from years of accumulated tar, nicotine and sludge. Epsom salt baths (use a lot of Epsom salt) are helpful to help alkalize the acids. Foot baths are good too. If you are not exercising and breaking into a sweat, then how soon can you start? A simple walk for 30 minutes a few times a week will suffice IF you make it a power walk (which means force yourself to walk faster than normal, swing your arms, take deep breaths). For deeper cleaning use a sauna every other day, perhaps at a gym. If not available, you can do one at home (if you need instructions, ask for the Home Sauna PEP Step info).
  4. RESPIRATION. The power walk mentioned above will suffice for deep breathing. But there is more. Before your afternoon meditation period you can begin with “The 5 Breath method” which is 4 slow but forceful long deep breaths with the final 5th exhale so slow and so long that you could not feel the air coming out your mouth if you were to put your hand in front of it. After that, just keep your eyes closed and proceed to awareness meditation. (if you need instructions, ask for the Meditation PEP Step info). Research shows that people who work out for hours gain no more aerobic benefit than someone who spends just 20 minutes 3 times a week getting to and maintaining a fast breath and fast heartbeat. Most gyms have jogging machines which automatically measure your heart rate and show your ideal ‘target’ based on age and weight.
  5. INTEGUMENTATION or expression through your Integumentary System. This final 5th pathway is one which you can’t do much about yet it expresses our individual identity quite dramatically – our hair and nails. They move at a much different pace than Starbuck speed, slowly growing over months instead of minutes. But we love them just the same. They can reveal hidden mysteries about the body’s inner core (toxic metal load).

In summary, when your body creates waste (which it has been doing the whole time you read this) you are going to pee it out, poop it out, sweat it out or breath it out and now you know how to – help it out.

Oregano Oil Warning

Most people have heard about the healing properties of oregano oil but recent test results indicate otherwise.

In a review at the National Candida Center of 25 three day stool collection lab tests that presented with pathogenic yeast or bacteria overgrowth, sensitivities were measured for various herbal and prescriptive agents that could be used for Removal of the bug. To our surprise, the herbal botanical OREGANO OIL was found to be 72% NOT effective for yeast (candida species) and 56% NOT effective for bacteria (various species).

The sensitivity was measured on a scale of 0-6. A ‘0’ means a microbe was fully resistant against oregano oil, at 1-2 oregano was minimally effective and therefore not recommended, 3-4 had moderate effectiveness and level 5-6 was very effective and therefore useful to kill yeast or bacteria.

Said another way, oregano was found to be effective against yeast only 28% of the time. That means if you are using oregano you have a 70% chance (7 in 10) of making an inner ecology dysbiosis WORSE by strengthening the bug and extending its resistance to other medicines.

These results are not mere speculation, mood or testimony of whether someone “felt good” or not. These results are from actual patient stool cultures where 7 different herbal botanicals were applied to measure the effectiveness of controlling the pathogenic microbe.

By comparison, other remedies were 70, 80, or 100% more effective, yet oregano is widely used in many OTC, health food store remedies and is inevitably making people’s conditions worse, not better.

This dramatic finding is why we always TEST instead of GUESS when choosing a remedy for SIBO, gas, bloating or any IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) condition.

This blog post is not to disavow the potential of oregano in other applications. However, given its wide use for almost every form of bowel health over many years, it appears to have lost effectiveness much like penicillin did as an effective antibiotic.

We recommend to stop its random use and TEST instead of GUESS. That means do a sophisticated test that will show both the sensitivity and resistance of various remedies.
