Cure Chronic Yeast Infection

Chronic yeast infections are those that are treated with medication and symptoms are relieved, but then the infections keep recurring.

The causes of recurrence might be:

An unusual type of yeast that may be resistant to certain anti-fungal medications, such as candida glabrata or candida tropicalis
Undiagnosed diabetes
Re-infection from a sexual partner

When a person has a chronic yeast infection it is important to practice prevention, and also to change the internal environment of the body so that yeast does not grow.

Some ways to prevent chronic yeast infections include:

Wear loose clothing
Wear cotton underwear, or underwear with a cotton crotch
Remove damp clothing after swimming or working out
Dry the infected area well after bathing. A blow dryer set on warm is effective.

Changing the internal environment of the body involves diet, supplements and therapy. Recommended treatments vary, but to become completely yeast-free and not just symptom-free it’s important to follow a natural, holistic, well-proven regime.

It is important to avoid certain foods.This is easier than you might think.It’s easy to substitute similar foods for your favorite “bad” foods.

Foods to avoid (use substitutes):

Dairy products, especially milk
White sugar and artificial sweeteners
White flour
White and puffed grains
Grains containing gluten, such as rye, wheat, barley, bran and corn
High glycemic index foods
Hydrogenated oils and partially hydrogenated oils
