Treating Candidiasis in the intestines is not as easy as curing a vaginal yeast infection. When you're treating a vaginal fungal infection you can buy an over the counter anti yeast cream or suppository, and then in most cases the infection is gone forever. With a yeast infection in your intestines anti fungal oral medicines are not the answer.

Most sufferers of intestinal fungal infections head directly for an oral anti fungal medicine to cure themselves. The trouble with oral anti fungal medicines is they wipe out all of the bacteria in your intestines, and they can also weaken your immune system.

When an oral anti bacterial medicine wipes out every single bacteria in your intestines it leaves the environment in a perfect place for bacteria and yeasts to start mutating. This mutating fungus is the thing that is causing your symptoms, so an anti bacterial medicine will only make your symptoms worse.

Your intestines have to be populated with beneficial bacteria to help battle the mutating Candida. If this balance gets too much in favor of the Candida then your infection becomes harder to cure. If it's left long enough without the correct treatment your yeast infection can become systemic. This means it will get into your bloodstream, and start infecting your internal organs.

The human body also needs a strong immune system to help fight off the fungal infection. Anti bacterial drugs weaken the immune system so you end up with a weaker immune system, and no beneficial bacteria in your intestines. This is why anti bacterial drugs like antibiotics are the biggest cause of yeast infections.

A Candida infection in your intestines needs be cured naturally, and alongside an anti fungal protocol. Even if you start treating yourself naturally, and you make mistakes with your diet or your medication, you won't cure yourself.

If you're permanently on prescription medicines for an illness, and they have an effect on your immune system then your intestinal fungal infection will take longer to cure. Your immune system needs to be at full strength to help your body fight off the invading Candida yeast.

If you carry on eating a regular diet that contains foods that feed the mutated Candida then you'll never cure yourself. While your feeding the Candida fungus you will never kill them off.

Treating yourself correctly will kill the mutated fungus, encourage the re-growth of beneficial bacteria in your intestines, and also repair the cell damage caused by the mutated Candida.
