Beat Candida with Virgin Cocout Oil

When antibiotics are taken, the good bacteria are often killed along with the disease-causing ones. This leaves yeast, such as Candida which is not affected by antibiotics, to grow unrestrained, proliferating and overrunning the intestinal tract. Candida albicans is yeast (or fungus) that normally inhabits our digestive system. Normally, the population of candida is in healthy balance with other intestinal flora. However, sometimes its population explodes because of various factors such as an improper diet, bursts of intense stress or ongoing low-grade stress that isn’t managed effectively combined with poor sleep/exercise routines or antibiotics or oral contraceptives—any dietary or lifestyle imbalances that compromise natural immunity can result in the yeast bacteria getting out of control and escaping the bounds of its normal abodes to other parts of the body. A high-sugar diet encourages the overgrowth of the candida organisms.

Symptoms may be caused by Candida?
Do you crave sugar, have a bloated abdomen or abdominal pain?
Feel bad "all over," yet the cause can't be identified and treatment of many kinds hasn't helped.
Do you have a white coating on your tongue or inside your mouth?
Are bothered by persistent or recurrent symptoms involving your digestive and nervous systems.
Do you feel 20 to 30 years older than you really are?

For topical applications and for those with fat malabsorption the lipase-rich coconut milk can be expected to be much more useful than heated coconut oil with only a very low concentration of free fatty acids. Alternatively, you may use lipase supplements with coconut oil. Sweet, heavy, cold foods overtax an already weakened digestive system and create mote internal toxins. Coconut oil appears to be useful within days. With Candida take initially 4 tablespoons of coconut oil spread out during the day, and after improvement you may reduce this to 2 tablespoons for several more weeks. This seems to be effective against systemic as well as localised infestations, including those of the genitals. However, it is advisable to apply coconut oil topically as well.

One of the good things about lauric acid in virgin coconut oil is that it kills lipid-coated bacteria but does not appear to harm the friendly intestinal bacteria.

Candida albicans is a yeast-like fungus that lives in the mouth and throat, the intestinal tract and the genital tract. There is good research now that shows the medium chain fatty acids in coconut oil kill candida yeast.
