Is Candida the base cause of many seemingly unrelated debilitating chronic maladies effecting modern Civilization?

Let me begin by stating that I am not a Doctor or Medically Trained. I have been personally effected by the conditions discussed in my websites and have benefited from the solutions presented. I would also remind the reader that any use of supplements, homeopathic remedies or change in diet should be discussed with your personal physician who is familiar with your own medical history.
These sites and related Blogs represent an effort to educate individuals and families in the little known and largely ignored condition of Invasive Candida Overbloom.

The main focus being, the various insidious ways we are effected by Candida Albicans in its various forms.

Many Dietary factors need to be considered once you understand the mechanisms used by yeasts and fungi and their symptoms as they gain a foothold and become invasive.
Partly due to the 'progress' of western medicine, this organism has exploded in recent years into an epidemic with so many varied symptoms that many in the Medical community have not 'connected the dots'.

Once allowed to reach an overgrowth level in the gut, Candida can morph into a more aggressive form that grows microscopic tendrils. These tendrils may then insinuate themselves thru the intestinal walls allowing a microscopic path to the bloodstream. This path can allow partially digested proteins and Candida itself into the bloodstream. This is known as 'Leaky Gut Syndrome'. The unprocessed proteins cause allergic reactions sometimes related to the protein source, showing up as food allergies.

In extreme instances these symptoms become more aggravated by our own body's immune defenses if our body attacks normal tissue in its attempt to stop the foreign invader.

If you have ever had an antibiotic series for a serious infection, the kind of treatment that may last 2 weeks to months under the supervision of a physician, there is a very good chance that the treatment also killed necessary 'friendly' bacteria in your intestines. This die off of friendly bacteria can be caused also by other conditions among them: long term gastric problems and their treatment, excessive use of alcohol, prolonged use of NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) etc. The conditions vary and will not be the same for everyone.
