Candida Albicans is a yeast infection that usually starts in the digestive system and gradually spreads to other parts of the body. It is also a type of parasite that is strong, invasive and usually attaches itself to the intestinal wall and becomes a permanent resident of the internal organs.

Candida Albicans causes countless health problems for a great number of men and women. These health problems may be caused by moderate or severe Candida infection affecting the various parts of their bodies. Candida Albicans has the ability to produce 75 toxic substances that can poison the human body. The toxins that are produced by the Candida parasites and contaminate the tissues and weaken the immune system, the glands, the kidneys, the bladder, the lungs, the liver, the brain and then the nervous system.

Candida Albicans is so invasive that it enters the gastrointestinal wall in the form of fungus where it develops very long, root like structures that penetrates the wall — breaking down the protective barrier between the intestinal tract and the bloodstream. This breakdown allows the entrance of foreign as well as toxic substances to the bloodstream where they can harm various body systems.

The breaking down of the barrier results in some major problems especially when proteins and other food wastes are not completely digested or removed. There can also be an attack on the immune system that causes severe allergic reactions, fatigue and other health problems.

Candida Albicans together with some bacteria swimming in the bloodstream is dangerous since it will be able to find its way to other tissues. This can bring you more severe health problems like swelling of joints, chest pain, sinus problems, skin problems, etc.

Candida infection may also cause of some heart attacks. There are reported cases of people who have never been diagnosed with heart problems, but then die from a heart attack for no apparent reason. Further, investigation has lead to surprising findings of Candida yeast causing undiagnosed heart attacks. Candida yeast can cover the heart, which is what causes the heart attack. The Candida yeast reaches the heart by means of the bloodstream.

Vaginal yeast infections are more widespread today than ever before and they will never be fully healed unless the yeast is completely eliminated from the intestinal area. Candida may also be transmitted through sexual intercourse.

Candidiasis or Candida infection usually interferes with digestion and assimilation of vitamins and minerals. A great number of senior citizens, cancer patients as well as those individuals with HIV are suffering nutritional deficiencies because their body is unable to absorb nutrients from the food that they eat.

A great number of people are able to digest only 50% of their food because the Candida parasite is robbing the body of the other 50%. The Candida parasite creates a digestive conflict that creates chaos in the intestine that results in diseases that have left a great number of doctors clueless as to what treatments to recommend.

Immunological weaknesses and infectious conditions are usually worsened by the presence of Candida parasites throughout the body. Yeast cell activity gives off two dangerous by-products —acetaidehyde and ethanol.

A great number of people are experiencing iron deficiency due to the presence of Candida. The Candida parasites also prohibits oxygen from entering the tissues. The ethanol that is given off by Candida parasites is the major cause excessive fatigue and reduction of strength and stamina in people infected with Candida. The ethanol likewise destroys enzymes that are needed for providing cells with energy and releases free radicals that hasten the aging process.

Please consult your primary care physician for more advice on Candida and potential treatments.

The Atkins Diet is not for Everyone

Posted by nisbinfo | Healthy Living | Wednesday 5 August 2009 10:13 am

The Atkin’s Diet is the brainchild of Edward Atkins but has its antecedents in the thinking of one Dr. Banting as long ago as 1863. This eating program advocates upping protein intake and decreasing, if not eliminating, carbohydrate consumption. This advice flies in the face of nutritional hinking as advocated by the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Guide Pyramid. The US Government revised some of its recommendations by updating the “Pyramid” in 2005,but still insists that carbohydrates like bread, pasta and potatoes provide 20% of the calories in the US diet. The Atkins advocacy to the contrary has fuelled a lot of controversy, with some medical experts branding the “Atkins Diet” as downright dangerous.
A recent editorial in prestigious “Nature” Magazine outlines the problem. The carbs break down to form sugars and these can pose a problem for people with high triglyceride levels, which is in itself a marker for insulin resistance. It is people in this category who will benefit and lose weight thanks to the Atkins Diet. That means the weight loss program is not ideally suited for everybody. Insulin resistance is frequently a precursor to late onset diabetes and thanks to poor eating habits, an ever-increasing percentage of the Nation’s population enters this category.
A recent study carried out by Manny Noakes and Peter Clifton of the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) adds weight to this swelling body of evidence. They took 100 overweight women, half of whom were placed on a high protein-eating regime and the other half followed a high carbohydrate eating management system. The results were surprising. Both groups lost the same amount of weight on average, but once again the study showed it was those who exhibited signs of insulin resistance who benefited the most from eating a diet mainly comprising protein. How do you know you are insulin resistant? You can of course have it checked out by a health care professional but an invariable tell tale sign is the tendency to put weight on in the stomach area. So if you are developing a bulging belly, it might make sense to cut back on your carbs.

All this makes perfect sense to Chicago based Medical practitioner Dr. Joe Mercola; the author of the “No Grains Cook Book”. Dr Mercola emphasizes the growing problem of a population that staggers increasingly towards diabetes, an illness that is growing in epidemic proportions. To counter this he suggests ways to eliminate grains and other carbs from the daily diet and strive towards fitness. He has had success by turning diabetes around by merely changing the diet.

Oh, yes there is one more thing about which all these authorities agree and that is the need to take more exercise. That is always a sure fire way to reduce the flab and insulin resistance to boot!

What Causes Cellulite And How To Prevent It

Posted by nisbinfo | Healthy Living | Tuesday 4 August 2009 10:13 am

It is a common knowledge that the appearance of cellulite is more common in women; and their age is of minor importance here since cellulite is often caused by hormonal disorders.

During the onset of puberty the body begins to produce hormones, including female ones that are responsible for formation of adipose tissue and may damage circulation and drainage in the tissues under the skin.

However, abnormal changes in tissues can be avoided if hormonal disorders are taken care of on the early stages. The young bodies can defend themselves better; and such disorders in teens are caused mostly by changes in metabolic process and thus are of temporary nature.

A number of factors can cause cellulite, however, the main causes are hereditary factors and unhealthy lifestyle. Hereditary factor cannot be denied since there are too many examples of this abound. What is more, however paradoxical it may seem, family upbringing plays a significant role in why we live an unhealthy lifestyle. The expression unhealthy lifestyle has an extensive meaning and includes a number of factors characteristic of human beings. In this connection the Oriental wisdom should be mentioned: in Orientalism the harmony and ways to achieve it were explored for years. The life is conceived by Oriental people as the unity of light yang and dark yin. There is no telling that yang is good and should exist, while yin is bad and should be got rid of. Such approach is typical of a Westerner accustomed to oppose good to evil. A Chinese or Japanese, however, sees no conflict here, and accepts the world as is, with any seeming contradictions.

In fact, who can say for sure what is better and what is worse: warmth or cold, day or night, man or woman? These are indivisible and interconnected components of our world that form the world order – Dao. And a human’s aim is to cognize Dao, and achieve harmony by adjusting the life to the naturalness of the world. It surely requires many efforts, and we have to rid ourselves step by step of vileness in us.

If we consider this desire from the point of view of our flesh, we may come to many questions. And the first of them is what the right and healthy diet is?
