Candida albicans is a tiny yeast (fungal) organism present normally in the body’s intestinal tract. When the level of Candida exceeds the balance of normal tolerance in the system Candidiasis occurs.

Normally the growth of Candida albicans is kept in check within the body by beneficial bacteria already present in the intestines. When the normal bacterial and yeast balance is interrupted, our systems become comprised. Often, helpful bacteria are destroyed by antibiotics or stress and illness. When this occurs many people start on a Candida cleanse diet.

Many times the worst symptom a sufferer of an over abundance of Candida experiences is a couple of days of diarrhea. But if the beneficial bacteria do not build back up to a healthy balance quickly, yeast can gain a foothold and cause a widespread overgrowth. The severity of Candidiasis ranges from superficial infections like oral thrush and vaginitis, to systemic and potentially life-threatening diseases like Leaky Gut Syndrome.

Candida Yeast Symptoms include:

Generalized: Fatigue, lethargy, migraine headaches, weakness, dizziness, muscle pain, respiratory problems and chemical sensitivities. Since candidiasis interferes with the absorption of nutrients from a person’s food fatigue, low energy and hunger headaches can be common.

Gastrointestinal: Diarrhea, constipation, bloating and gas. The sufferer may feel full even when a lot of food has not been consumed.

Genitourinary: Yeast vaginitis, UTI’s, menstrual problems, bladder inflammation, male Candida.

Dermatological: Eczema, acne, hives.

Mental and emotional: Memory loss, inability to concentrate, depression, insomnia, learning disability.

Autoimmune: Arthritis, MS, Lupus

Symptoms Systemic Yeast Infections

Yeast infections typically are found in moist body surfaces like the mouth, vagina and intestines. However, if the infection is undetected and untreated for a long period of time the yeast can shift to a fungal form, which sinks root-like rhizoids under the surface of the mucosa. When this occurs, toxins, which are normally prevented from penetrating the surface of the intestinal lining, are given a route to invade the rest of the body. Known as “leaky gut syndrome”, this kind of infection causes a wide range of conditions on its own that may include most of the above mentioned Candida yeast symptoms.

In the extreme, systemic infections trigger the body’s immune system to act against itself. The fatigue, muscle and joint pain, dizziness, respiratory problems, menstrual problems, eczema, acne, hives, psoriasis, insomnia, or irritability all may seem far removed from the real source of the problem.

An additional complication, “invasive candidiasis” or “candidemia” occurs when there is yeast intolerance and then yeast or yeast toxins enter the bloodstream, usually as a result of an injury or surgery. When someone has a yeast infection in the blood they can exhibit fever and chills that are unresponsive to antibiotics. It can spread to the kidneys, liver, spleen, joints or eyes, causing further damage. We hope this gives you some Candida help with the Candida yeast symptoms.
