What Is Candida? Candida
is a dimorphic organism, meaning it can exist in two shapes and forms simultaneously.
One form is a yeast-like state that is a non-invasive, sugar-fermenting organism.
The other is a fungal form that produces very long root-like structures, called
rhizoids, that can penetrate the mucosa and is invasive. Actually, in its yeast form it is beneficial. We all have this form of candida in our bodies. The candida population should be low and indiscernible (no overt symptoms or cloudy saliva). "Friendly" bacteria and a healthy immune system prevent this yeast from becoming an infectious fungus. It
is when our bodies lose their proper immune protection, or the intestinal pH is
altered unfavorably, that the organism can change from the yeast form to the fungal
form. When this happens, the now-parasitic fungal form penetrates the It has been unofficially estimated that a startling 80% of the population may have candidiasis that is out of control!

Most naturopaths concur that the conversion happens due to some sort of attack on our immune systems-either prolonged antibiotic use, taking steroids or oral contraceptives on a regular basis, or a high sugar diet. It could be a combination of these. It is also conjectured that candida increases its numbers during periods of stress and lowered immune states. What Are the Symptoms of a Candida Infestation? Typical candida symptoms may include jock itch, depression, dry, itchy, flaky skin, anxiety, recurring irritability or mood swings, heartburn, indigestion, lethargy, food and environmental allergies, joint soreness, chest pain, acne or other skin problems, migraine headaches, recurring cystitis/vaginal infections, premenstrual tension, and menstrual problems. How Do I Know if I Have Candida? You can try this simple test to see if you have candida: First thing in the morning, before you put ANYTHING in your mouth, get a clear glass. Fill with water and work up a bit of saliva, then spit it into the glass of water. Check the water every 15 minutes or so for up to one hour. If you have a problem you will see strings (like legs) traveling down into the water from the saliva floating on the top, or "cloudy" saliva will sink to the bottom of the glass, or cloudy specks will seem to be suspended in the water. If there are no strings and the saliva is still floating after at least one hour, you probably have candida under control. Your Health Freedom May Be At Risk!
