What Factors Can Lead To Overgrowth of Candida Albicans In My Body?

Several factors can lead to an overgrowth of candida Albicans in a person body:

1)  Use of antibiotics, often with a history of chronic urinary infections, ear and/or throat infections, sinus infections, respiratory infections or acne.

2)  Long-term use of steroids such as cortisone or prednisone can also accentuate mold growth in the body.  Cortisone may be used for inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, asthma or other immune diseases.

3)  Use of birth control pills or oral contraceptives are associated with a higher incidence of vaginal yeast infections.  Pregnancy is also associated with an increase incidence of vaginal yeast infections.

4)  Excessive intake of foods containing sugar and yeast products (vinegar, mushrooms, pickles, alcohol, aged cheeses, etc.) can accentuate mold growth in the intestines.

How Can I Be Treated For This Condition?
