Candida produces an alcohol called ethanol producing an intoxicating effect in the blood if the count level is too high. Ethanol grows rapidly when yeast has a food source like white sugar or white floor products. In severe cases it produces much more than the liver can oxidize and eliminate. It can produce a false estrogen and make the body think it has enough, which signals the body to cease production. Or send messages to the thyroid, making it think it has enough stopping the production of thyroxin. The cause of this is menstrual problems and hypothyroid problems.
Another byproduct is acetaldehyde and it is related to formaldehyde this disrupts collagen production, fatty acid oxidation and blocks normal nerve functions. Basically it interferes with the normal functions of the entire body and is a severe problem. One way to get an overdose of candida in the system is by taking antibiotics and birth control pills, and consuming sugar products. Candida feeds on antibiotics (it is their food source). Other causes: cortisone, progesterone suppositories, faulty diets, diet, too much meat, weakened immune systems, and hi-mercury levels from mercury fillings.

Some Symptoms:
anxiety
constipation
hiatal hernia
depression
burning in eyes
rashes
dry or sore throat
inability to cope
adrenal failure
dizziness/vertigo
intestinal pain/colitis
hyper-irritability
asthma
feeling drained
puffy eyes
energy loss
thyroid failure
hyperactivity
inability to absorb food
insomnia
chemical sensitivity
muscle weakness
panic attacks
loss of concentration
bloating
food cravings
dry mouth
fatigue
food sensitivity
hives odors cold
belching heartburn
migraine headaches
bladder infections
mouth infections / thrush
spots in front of eyes
mental confusion
hay fever
Lastly I will say that if you are told you have it, the first thing they will say is that you have to go off sugar and all starchy foods, etc. However, it has been proven that once an infection is present it cannot be starved to death as they would have you believe (if the person then starved themselves to death, the candida would still be present I once read). Digestive enzymes can be used to get the infection under control, also I am now using Virgin Coconut Oil as it contains acids that are said to destroy the protective coating that candida forms to hide from the immune system and then your body can rid itself. If you do a search on this forum under coconut oil you will find some good info on it from another discussion. I am trying this method instead of the higher amounts of enzymes needed to get rid of the infection because coconut oil is said to also helps the thyroid recover and is such an easy lipid for the system to assimilate that it burns as a carbohydrate without being one. I take enzymes also, but cannot afford to stay at the levels it takes to dispose of candida (which you have to stay at for several months). I have heard the enzyme method works well however.

Here is a site that has a lot of info on the what Coconut Oil is good for: http://www.tropicalt...coconut_oil.htm
They recommend taking about 3 Tablespoons a day, you can cook with it (makes a great stir fry) or add it to a smoothie (great with fruit), I add a bit to each cup of coffee I have and cook with it and take it plain sometimes.

TANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATION. TANK YOU ALSO FOR THE COCONUT OIL TIP. A DIDN'T KNEW ABOUT IT.
ALSO, I DON'T KNOW IF I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING. WHEN I READ YOU:
However, Candida Albicans takes advantage of circumstances in the body.
IT'S NOT WHAT I LEARNED FROM WHAT I READ: WHAT I LEARNED FROM THAT SUBJECT IS ABOUT MOLDS. THE MORE YOU EAT MOLDS, THE MORE YOU GOT CHANCES TO GET THAT DISEASE. HAVE A LOOK AT THIS:
http://www.phs.ualbe...22Myctoxins.ppt
SO, THAT WOULD BE THE POINT TO NO GRAIN DIET AND CLOSER TO RAW DIET TO...
DID I MISUNDERSTOOD SOMETHING?

That link did not work for me, what is the name of the article and how do you find it on that site?
The only thing I can think of that you may have been reading about would be toxic molds, they can be inhaled (breathed in thru the mouth or nose) or eaten and cause health problems. As you probably know, there are many different kinds of molds/fungus and Candida in its original state is a friendly type that is already in the body. When we have a situation in our systems where the balance is not correct then it can change form and grow, causing an big problem. It can punch holes in the intestinal walls and leave the area, causing leaky gut because there are now areas that food and other materials can pass into the body directly.
You will have to let me know about that article or maybe you can copy some of it and post it here for us to read.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeast
IF YOU READ CAREFULLY, YOUR GONNA SEE THAT IT IS ALREADY PRESENT IN FOOD
ME, BECAUSE I AM COELIAQUE, I THINK THAT IF I DON'T WANT TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MOLDS, BETTER HAVE THE RIGHT DIET...AND THE RIGHT DIET DOESN'T MEAN ONLY EXCLUDE RYE, WHEAT AND BARLEY.

I understand what you are saying, but we are not just speaking just of a type of yeast, we are speaking of a medically documented [/B]health conditioin[B]. Yes, Candida is a type of yeast, but when you have Systematic Candidiasis (I hope I spelled that right) you have a condition in which your own bodies naturally occuring candida flora has gone thru the asexual reproduction (as discribed in that link) and has gotten out of control due to one of many factors. Once this has happened, it is very hard to get it back into proper balance and you have the added problem of it usually being outside the intestines at this point. It forms around itself a protein coating (as many virus and bacteria do as well) and thus it hides from the immune system, especially if you have low enzyme levels and cannot break down protein and carbohydrates very well. That is where the enzyme therapy and coconut oil comes in, protease digests the outer coating and cellulase/amylase aid the body in digesting the candida itself, especially in areas outside the digestive tract. Coconut oil has the right acids to dispose of the protein coating as well, allowing the body to "see" the candida and attack it.
So, enzyme therapy or taking digestive enzymes is very important for more than just getting your nutrition from your food, it is also a part of the immune system and every system in the body uses enzymes for multiple jobs. I believe they make all the difference in the world.
If your still unclear about this being a health risk, ask your doctor, this is not just something companies are using to make sales. With the overuse of antiboitics, many, many people suffer from this condition.

FIRST WHAT OTHER THINGS THAN COCONUT OIL KILLS CANDIDA AND OTHER YEAST:
- ONIONS
- GARLIC (STRONG AGAINST CANCER TO)
- CHIVES
- CLOVES
- LACTOFERIN (MILK PRODUCTS)
- CAPRYLIC ACID (MILK PRODUCTS)
- SORBIC ACID
- POE D’ARCO TEA
- OLIVE LEAF
- GOOD BACTERIA
NOW, WITH THE GOOD BACTERIA (ENZYME) DIET, YOU NEED TO BE CAREFULL…BECAUSE IF YOU EAT TO MUCH, OR IF YOU FUEL THEM TO MUCH, YOU GONNA GET GAS AND DIAREA. AND THIS IS NOT FUNNY.
WHERE TO FIND YOUR GOOD BACTERIA (ENZYME, PROBIOTICS)
- ALOE
- YOGURT (10 STRAINS OF GOOD BACTERIA/ 1 BAD STRAIN)
- KEFIR (5 STRAINS OF GOOD BACTERIA/ 1 BAD)
- FRESH CHEESE
- CUCUMBER
- SAUERKRAUT
- JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE (TOPINAMBOURG IN FRENCH)
- BREAD YEAST (FOR SACCHAROMYCES BOULARDI)
- FISH/SEA FOOD
NOW WHAT FUEL’S GOOD BACTERIA (PRE BIOTICS)
IN FRENCH, IT’S CALLED FRUCTO-OLIGOSACCHARIDES. THIS IS FOOD FOR YOUR GOOD BACTERIA. IT HELPS THEM TO LIVE INSIDE OF YOU AND REPRODUCE.
- BANANA
- ARTICHOKE
- GARLIC
- HONEY (SOME EXCLUDE THIS ONE)
- SALSIFY
- LEEK
- CHICORY
- JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE
- GARLIC
OF THAT LIST I EXCLUDED
- ASPARAGUS
- TOMATO
- WHEAT
- RYE
THAT’S IT FOR FRUCTO-OLIGOSACCHARIDES.
AND THAT’S WHAT I HAVE FOR MOLDS(YEAST,FUNGUS). I DO NOT MINIMISE EFFECTS OF CANDIDA. LIKE I DON’T MINIMISE THE FACT THAT, AS A COELIAQUE PERSON, MY STOMACH HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY ADENO VIRUS 12. SO I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO DO THE SAME EXERCISE WITH CANCER. WHAT IS GOOD AGAINST CANCER?
AGAIN, TANK YOU LISA FOR THE TIP OF COCONUT OIL. I ADDED IT TO MY LIST OF FOOD AGAINST MOLDS.
