Candida albicans is the major suspect in most yeast infection cases. Candida albicans, a form of yeast can be a cause of everything from a vaginal yeast infection to heart failure. The number of possible afflictions that can be initiated originally from candida albicans in the system is like a who’s who of medical journals. Everything from depression to chronic fatigue can be attributed to an overgrowth of candida albicans. Candida albicans live naturally in the intestinal tract. They are normally kept under control by agents such as lactobacillus acidophilus, which also lives in the intestinal tract. The two live in balance a large majority of the time. But introduce things like antibiotics, unprotected sex, hormonal changes, and the balance may be eliminated. When candida albicans get the upper hand in the balance then they reproduce at a much faster rate which magnifies the situation. When this happens, the result is a yeast infection. A yeast infection is caused by an internal imbalance somewhere in the body, most likely the digestive tract. Candida albicans crave damp and warm areas. The mouth, intestinal tract and vagina are perfect environments for candida albicans. When in environments like this, they attach themselves to the mucosa membranes on the surface of wherever they are. Intestinal, oral or vaginal walls are all targets for the candida albicans. There are over 75 toxic substances that yeast introduces to the host. In great enough quantity, it can affect all the major organs including the brain and the heart. In addition it contaminates tissue and weakens the immune and nervous system. It is very invasive. When candida albicans are in their fungal form, their structure includes long strands or roots that penetrate the surface on which they lie. Eventually there is so many of them that it starts to enter the blood system. From there, it’s a free ride on the blood express to anywhere in the body. Once candida albicans is in the blood stream, things like arthritis, sinus and skin problems occur.
