About the Founder & Systemic Candida
(Systemic Yeast)

Today could be the Day that You Save Someone's Life

I worked in Sales & Marketing in Corporate America for 25 years, and had to leave my job due to illness. I have Systemic Candida, also known as Systemic Yeast, and I have been sick for 8 years. I am so grateful that I have finally been diagnosed and am finally well. Read on and you may just save a friends life.

The internet estimates that as many as 30% of the World Population has a yeast problem, some worse than others. My case was severe, and I had 90% of the symptoms listed below. It was truly throughout my system. This can begin as a simple yeast infection, but it can spread throughout the body if your immune system has been compromised by taking too many antibiotics, steroids, or birth control pills. Since Diabetes also has an inherent compromised immune system, it can also affect Diabetics.
This affects mainly women (80%) and men (20%).

Yeast craves sugar, carbs and alcohol. It will cause sugar and carb cravings, which feed the problem, as well as possible cravings for alcohol. It can cause many illnesses that appear unrelated, including mental illness, such as depression, bipolar disorder, thyroid disease, adrenal failure, bronchitis, joint and muscle problems,bladder infections, yeast infections, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue, sun sensitivity, sensitivity to chemicals, inflammation/swelling, weight gain and more. One or more of these symptoms may appear over time, and they will seem unrelated, making diagnosis difficult.

How did this happen? Antiobiotics, Birth Control, and Steroids can erode your immune system.If too many are taken, they gradually reduce your good bacteria in the immune system in your gut, and bad bacteria such as yeast (candida) can overgrow and cause many types of failures in your body. Essentially, you've lost too many good guys, and the bad guys are growing. The body is out of balance.

I don't want anyone to go through the pain that I have gone through. Awareness and prevention are important, and this is often overlooked by Doctors as a possible diagnosis.

See a Holistic Doctor, preferably someone in Integrative Medicine, if you think you or someone you care about could have this condition. Go to functionalmedicine.org to find a practitioner in your area.

It is my commitment to educate the public about this debilitating illness. For more helpful information on this topic and what I did to heal, go to my new profit site, www.atlanticjourneytowellness.org
