What is Candida Albicans
Candida albicans are members of a large group of micro organism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within the membranes, including yeast(2)(3), fungi(4)(5)(6), and mold(6) that live among the gut flora in the human mouth and gastrointestinal tract. In fact, under normal circumstances, Candida albicans that do not cause harmful effects, but overgrowth results in candidiasis. Non-albicansCandida (NAC) species cause 35-65% of all candidaemias in the general patient population(1). According to joint study, in many cases, biofilm(microorganisms with cells stick to each other on a surface) formation(7) gene mutations(8) and overexpression of genes(9)(10) are often associated with increased Candidaresistance toward antifungal agents.
Treatments and controllings
Reducing intestinal dysbiosis (A condition with microbial imbalances within the body)
1. Probiotics
Probiotics are live micro-organisms conferred a health benefit on the host and found to be benefits the digestive system(363), including inflammatory bowel disease(364). According to Dalian Medical University, there are many causes of dysbbiosis, such as prolonged period intake of antibiotic used widely in conventional medicine for treatment of bacterial infection(365). Dr. McFarland LV at the University of Washington said that the use of probiotics restores the balance of undisturbed microbiota in healthy individual most effectively than patients with postdisruptive event and probiotic therapy and pre-existing disrupted microbiota and then postprobiotic therapy(366).
2. Prebiotics
Prebiotic, the non-digestible food ingredients and the most prevalent forms of prebiotic is nutritionally classed as soluble fiber(367), including Galactooligosaccharide, stimulated the production of number and/or activity of bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria(368) and/or activity in the digestive system(369) in ways claimed to be beneficial to health of the host, by counteracting to the overgrowth of bad bacteria(371)(372), including candida albicans.
3. Foods rich in FOS
(See above)
4. High fiber foods
Fiber is the indigestible portion of plant foods having two main components soluble and insoluble fiber, consisted non-starch polysaccharides such as arabinoxylans(woods and cereal grains), cellulose(a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of linked D-glucose unit) and many other plant component. While it is beneficial for alleviating symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome(373), such as diarrhea and/or constipation and abdominal discomfort, it is also a prebiotic(374) which is beneficial to health of the host by enhancing the production of good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract(375) and counteracting to the overgrowth of bad bacteria, including candida albcans.
4. Avoid allergic foods
Eating allergic foods often cause symptoms of digestive disorders(376), including gas, stomach pains, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, etc. can cause allergen-producing L. lactis strains(377) induced imbalance of bacteria in digestive systems, leading to overgrowth of bad bacteria quickly.
5. Regular intake of Allium satvum (garlic)
Allium satvum is a species in the onion family Alliaceae, native to Central Asia. Garlic beside is best known for its effectiveness in treating hypertension(378), hyper cholesterol(379), blood thinner(380) and cancer(381), it also contains high amount of phytoncides that inhibits the growth of microorganisms(382) and phytoalexin called allicin was found to have anti-oxidative(383)(384) and anti-microbial effects(385) that would be helpful to keep a healthy digestive system and prevent the growth out of control of bad bacteria.
6. Enhances immune system
Living healthy and eating healthy foods such as such as whole grain, fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, beans and legumes (see more of Over 100 Healthy Foods List http://healthy-foods-index.blogspot.com/) provide your body with necessary nutrients, including antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, that not only optimizes the digestive absorption but also enhances the immune system(386)(387)in fighting against inflammation(389) and infection(388) caused by virus and bacteria.
7. UVC therapy
Light therapy is considered as a type of treatment of exposing to daylight or to specific wavelengths of light, used to accelerate wound healing(390), hair growth, and improved blood properties(391) Statistical analysis found in vitro candida strains were sensitive to UVC(392) and photodynamic therapy with malachite green(393).
8. Exercise
Exercise is important in enhancing the immune system(394) to reduce the likelihood of getting yeast infections(385) but also put your body in a better position to fight off the candida.
9. Reduce stress
Signs of stress may be cognitive, emotional, physical or behavioral, signs of poor judgment, a general negative outlook, can depress the immune system(395) and impair the digestive system(396), causing psoriasis(397), a chronic autoimmune disease and gastrointestinal tract infection(396), leading to more favorable conditions for unhealthy candida to multiple.
10. Specific sexual practices and sexual behavior
A study in USA revealed that a 75% percentage of women have had candida yeast overgrowth at some points in their lives in comparison to only 45% of men. Sexual practices such as receptive anal and oral sex and douching increase the risk of infectious candida(398). Risk of vulvovaginal candidiasis also increases in women who have sex with several women partners(399)(400). If you noticed changes in your body such as thick, cheese-like discharges, pain during sex and an itchy burning sensation, check with your doctor immediately.
