For the sake of clarification:
-
Candida Yeast Infections,
Chronic yeast infections, vaginal yeast infections are symptoms, not
ailments in themselves.
-
Candida Albicans is not the
cause of Candida Yeast Infections. Candida Albicans is the product of the
debilitation of the body’s digestive system due to accumulated bodily
wastes.
Most
ailments start off through simple digestive impairment and Candida is no
exception. Our body in all its parts is always only doing one of two things.
It is either
-
digesting food or
-
eliminating waste.
When
digestion becomes inhibited for whatever reason two things start to happen:
-
The body will start
accumulating its own wastes and
-
instead of digesting food,
the digestive organs start fermenting the foods as well as the accumulated
wastes which creates an internal environment that gives rise to the
rampant growth of the Candida Albicans spores.
The
Candida Albicans spores already exist in the body naturally so they are not
the cause. Why they start to over grow is the answer to the puzzle. They
need a certain environment in order to flourish.
The
conceptual differences between the proper digestion of foods and the
decomposition/fermentation of foods must be clarified and understood
otherwise there is no understanding nor a permanent resolution to the
Candida problem and its related symptoms.
In proper
digestion good foods are literally being taken apart and separated into good
and bad, useable and non-useable or beneficial and detrimental substances by
the body through the various digestive organs. The useable components
are used to build and maintain all of the parts of our body and provide the
energy needed for the activities of normal life. The detrimental wastes are
evacuated. In a healthy person this process is completely painless and
happens as a matter course without any other affects.
To
understand the foods that all creatures eat it is best to understand at the
simplest possible level in relation to organ and bodily functions. Most
people have come to know foods as proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Even
though this is a useful classification foods can be thought of in much
simpler terms. In principle few will argue that foods are either;
-
Solid
-
Liquid or,
-
Gases
We are
either chewing, drinking or breathing. There is no other way to nourish the
body as food comes in no other forms. Likewise, the only possible bodily
waste by-product can only be solid, liquid, and gaseous normally evacuated
at regular intervals. Not only does this occur in the body as a whole, it
also occurs within each organ and every cell of the body. So it is possible
for one organ, due to impairment, to be more burdened than another. Anything
that interferes or otherwise inhibits the eliminatory functions will change
the internal environment and, in time, produce a disease. This can occur
completely without any viral beginning or so called genetic defect, although
the environment that this fermenting process creates is conducive to
supporting organisms that would not normally exist within the body. In fact,
the numerous bacteria associated with Candida yeast infections come into
being because of it. This completely abnormal internal environment allows
Candida Albicans to flourish and among these is also the Epstein Barr virus
and many others.
To explain
this concept further; when digestion is blocked in any way the foods that
were being digested become "stalled" in the digestive process. In herbal
jargon this is sometimes called stagnation. When you have an organic
substance that started off as a living thing, such as food, finds itself
stalled, not being digested, in the moist and warm environment inside of the
body, it naturally starts to give itself back to nature through the very
natural process of fermentation. This process is basically decomposition.
There is nothing wrong with this most natural of processes, it is however,
problematic when it occurs within the body due to digestive impairment.
For those
who have a hard time conceiving that it is possible for something to be
literally rotting inside of them, all one has to ask is where do bodily
odors come from?
Some
people have incredible body odors and the sicker or the older they are the
more they can smell. That odor can only come from somewhere within the body
from something other than the flesh itself, and everyone has a different
odor and in some it gets worse with age. If the body and its flesh is
constantly trying to clean itself it can only be something left over from
the digestive process. All bodily discharges are wastes. All bodily
discharges; solid, liquid or liquid, that are not being expelled from their
normal orifice are what the body, through an impediment, could not expel
through them. The very strong pungent smelling discharges common in Candida
Yeast Infections also burn where they have contact because of their nature.
There are
ailments such as gangrene, leprosy, and others where the flesh itself is
rotting - fermenting - dissolving while the person is still alive. In other
words their flesh is more filled with waste than healthy flesh substance -
an inflamed congestion. So, if the flesh itself can rot while the person is
still alive, what is put into the body is even more likely to do so where
there is digestive impairment. Bad breath; halitosis, comes about because
the stomach is not digesting the food, it is fermenting it. The bacteria is
born out of this not the other way around.
Fermentation is a very well known process. It can be used to make things.
Under human supervision fermentation is just controlled rotting. Through it,
we produce certain foods and beverages wine, beer, sauerkraut and other
useful substances. Fermentation has many by-products, only one of which is
yeast. Besides yeast, gases like carbon dioxide and monoxide, bacteria and
other by-products are released from the original substance being fermented.
Anyone who
is well acquainted with the very natural processes of fermentation will
quickly and more clearly understand the origins of yeast, it cousins and
with it Candida Yeast Infections and its symptoms in the body. The yeast
will irritate, the gases will produce headaches, bloating, stupor, fatigue
and so on, just like they would if one were exposed to them from outside of
the body.
It must be
understood that this yeast is more complex and not exactly the same yeast
that is ingested through baked goods, it is being produced inside the body
by the fermentation of foods and/or wastes that find themselves within the
body. If the ingested yeast were the culprit then everyone who has ever
eaten a leavened food such as bread or pizza would also have a yeast
problem; and this is obviously not the case.
It is well
known that sugars fuel fermentation and yeast production. This process is no
different when it occurs within the body. It is for this reason that any
foods that have a sugar content or a yeast content are being eliminated by
those who would try to get rid of Candida. This does help the symptoms to a
point but, think for a minute? Does this really make sense? How can foods
that are otherwise wholesome and harmless be deemed detrimental?
