About the Yeasts Responsible for Yeast Infections -
Yeast infections are obviously "caused"
by yeast, but it's important to understand more about
this tiny cell that can cause so many irritating symptoms.
Yeasts
are single-celled fungi. Other types of fungi are molds and
mushrooms. Fungi are more closely related to animals than plants,
although you wouldn’t be able to tell that from looking
at them.
Because their cells are very similar to our own, many chemicals
that are known to kill fungi can also damage or kill human cells.
Some anti-fungal medications can also kill off the beneficial
bacteria that live in our gut. This makes the process of finding
safe and effective anti-fungal medications even more difficult
for researchers.
Scientists have found over a thousand different species of
yeasts so far, and there are probably many more that have not
yet been discovered. Yeasts tend to reproduce very quickly under
the right conditions, and this makes them a favorite organism
for scientists who study DNA and genetic markers. It also makes
yeast infections difficult to fight when your own body becomes
a “perfect” environment for the fast growth of yeast.
Most people, (at least 80% of us), have Candida living
in or on our bodies. C. albicans lives on the skin
and in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract, along with many
other living organisms. Most of the time, the yeast is perfectly
harmless.
Candida is an opportunistic infection, which
means that it’s usually benign, but it can explosively
reproduce and become invasive under conditions. This is especially
troublesome if the body’s own immune system is impaired
for some reason and unable to fight off the infection.
When the yeast is in its harmless round form you would never
know it was there, even though it is probably living on your
skin and in your lower intestine and vagina all the time.
However, Candida yeast is dimorphic, which means that
the same yeast cell can take two different forms, depending
on the environment in which it is living. If a chemical change
in the body causes the yeast to be “stressed,” the
shape of the Candida cell changes and it becomes invasive.

on this site were written by Jonni Good, author of one of
the Web's most popular books on sugar
addiction.
A number of people have asked me for advice about natural
yeast infection remedies to use when nothing seems to work.
I read through many books and articles, and I recommend
Yeast
Infection Away by Crystal McBride. Her information
is well researched, and the instructions are easy to follow. |
