Natural Yeast Infection Remedies Are Perfect
Yeast Fighters:
Natural yeast infection remedies can be easy to prepare. Folks always have this
mindset that grabbing a medication or two at the pharmacy or clinic is the easiest and most convenient thing
to do. This is not actually the case as natural yeast infection remedies too can be concocted with homemade
ingredients.
They are extremely
useful against yeast infection. Many women and men alike are turning to natural remedies for yeast infection
because of its health benefit as compared to over-the-counter medications and creams containing clotrimazole
(Gyne-Lotrimin, Femizole-7 and others), miconazole (Monistat-Derm, Monistat 7, Monistat Vaginal and others),
tioconazole (Vagistat Vaginal), fluconazole (Diflucan) and butoconazole (Femstat 3). Nystatin and amphotericin B
are also antifungal agents found in some OTC or prescribed medications.

Actually yeast is a naturally occurring organism in the human body so you never
eliminate it completely. In that sense, you don't cure a yeast infection as much as enable your body's immune
system to keep the yeast's natural balance as it should be. When yeast overgrow, they crowd out other
beneficial bacteria and this balance is thrown off. This imbalance creates the symptoms we then
refer to as a yeast infection.
Herbal Yeast
Infection Remedies:
Natural anti-fungal herbal yeast
infection remedies are very useful in the treatment of candida infection because they can enter the blood
stream where probiotics cannot. This helps with chronic and systemic fungus infection treatment immensely, if
the fungus has penetrated the lining of the intestines and has traveled throughout the body. Probiotics can
only kill the yeast infection in the intestines, mouth, and vagina, but they do raise the ph levels of the
body providing support to the immune system, while it restores natural bacterial levels for your future
health.
Some of these herbal yeast infection remedies such as Olive Leaf Extract are actually
classified as antioxidants, which I find interesting since most antioxidants are actually anti-fungals. The
antioxidant craze of the last 10 years has seen the rise to the market place of many different products for
your health. Supplements like Co-Q10, grape seed extract, beta-carotene and other proanthocyanidins that are
actually anti-fungals. They all work but naturally some are better than others for yeast
infections.
Other Anti-Fungal Remedies:
Malic acid, which is derived from apple cider vinegar, has strong anti-fungal
abilities. Undeceylenate acid is a good herbal yeast infection remedy and anti-fungal agent that is much
stronger than caprylic acid. It is very gentle and completely non-toxic. It is part of the
Candida Clear product found farther down this page if you are interested.
Peppermint, thyme, and
goldenseal are herbal yeast infection remedies with peppermint tea being very soothing to the lining of the
intestines.
Caprylic acid is a fatty
acid derived from coconut oil & has been found to kill on contact yeast and other fungi. It specifically is
effective for gastrointestinal candida overgrowth. Once absorbed, caprylic acid is no longer an anti-fungal but
is then metabolized to produce energy. I have to add that your much better off to take the oil with the lauric
acids present than just this alone. The lauric acid is stronger and the two together destroy the nucleus of the
Candida yeast cell.
