What is Candida? Candida is a yeast that lives in the body … predominantly in the gut and in small amounts. When the immune system is weak or if the ecosystem in our colon is out of balance, then Candida can overgrow causing a range of symptoms.
If you have 4 or more of the following symptoms then its highly likely you have an issue with Candida overgrowth!
- Fatigue
- Sugar cravings
- Bad breath
- White coating on the tongue
- Brain fog, trouble concentrating,
- Poor memory
- Hormone imbalance
- Muscle and Joint pain
- Fibromyalgia/Polymyalgia
- Low libedo
- Chronic sinus and allergies
- Bloating and gas
- Irritable Bowel
- Low immunity
- Recurring urinary tract infections
- Recurring thrush
- Irritability
- Tinea (eg jock itch, athletes foot, fungal rashes)
- Dandruff and itchy scalp
- Acne
- History of repeated or prolonged antibiotic use
- High sugar or high yeast diet
Many people try to tackle their candida issues on their own, but did you know that Colonics can help speed up the process of Candida elimination?
Candida lives mostly in the large bowel – which can effectively be cleaned out with Colonics. So, although you may be eating the right things and taking the right herbs, if you are not having regular colonics you are missing out on a hugely effective way of eliminating large amounts of Candida in one session!
In my clinic I recommend a colonic once a week for the first 4 weeks whilst following a strict Candida diet with herbal supplements. The result of this is that Candida is eliminated far quicker than could normally be achieved without colonics.
When following a Candida protocol it is also vital that you are having a bowel movement daily. If this is not happening, then the toxicity from the Candida dying off is stuck in the colon and reabsorbs through the gut lining back into the bloodstream – thereby making you feel very unwell, and slowing results significantly.
If anyone is struggling with Candida, I strongly recommend making contact with your nearest Colon Hydrotherapy Centre. I welcome those living on or around the Gold Coast to contact me if they need help. Colonics are a fantastic adjunctive to the whole process, and I can help you along with way by providing a diet plan, supplements and as much support as you need
Yours in Health!
