Yeasts are a part of our everyday lives. Inside our bodies, as many as 500 varie¬ties of viral, bacterial and fungal microorganisms, including candida, exist. In the year of 2010, when I was 10 years old, I was found a fungus such known as a Candida living inside my body. Through out my childhood, I was given antibiotics for multiple reasons. Simply by taking antibiotics that how was Candida started to develop little by little. I would like to share and explain to you how antibiotics can start to develop a candida.
Antibiotics are powerless against yeasts. The antibiotics wipe out the “friendly” bacteria that tend to keep yeast growth in check. Because antibiotics disrupt the body’s delicate balance of microorganisms, they also pave the way

I had to follow a strict diet and I avoid all food that I know could harm my fungus. Yeasts rapidly metabolize simple sugars; they also inhibit the growth of friendly bacteria, which further compromises the immune system. Following any serious anti-candida diet is hard work. It can also trigger intense cravings and new symptoms, especially when the yeasts start to die and decompose, releasing still more toxins into your body. For the reason when was in public school, the food that would serve the cafeteria wasn't very good and healthy for me. So everyday my mom would pass for me when it was lunchtime and head home where she had a healthy meal that was good for my health ready for me. That way I can avoid running the risk of my Candida to grow. Also I notice taking natural supplements was helping such as garlic. Day and night I would eat a piece of garlic after a meal. The garlic fights the Candida, so it helped a lot by reducing the size of the fungus. Another tip that helps in my experience is staying active active. Taking a walk or any other types of activities helped me have my Candida controlled. I was aware that stress, diabetes and allergies could all increase a person’s susceptibility to a candida-related illness. So whenever I would find my self stressed out, I enjoyed going outside, taking a moment to meditate and calm my self
For medical care, no treatment is needed for those who are asymptomatic, just monitoring for mild symptoms (2). For those who cannot fight the disease as easily as the majority, there are an array of treatments available. To start, blood cultures should be performed in all patients, and sputum cultures should be taken for those with chronic histoplasmosis (2). Chest radiology would be preferred for individuals with acute pulmonary histoplasmosis, steroids and possible laser treatment for ocular histoplasmosis, and CT scans for those with cerebral histoplasmosis (2). With prolonged symptoms of more than 4 weeks, medical therapy via itraconazole is recommended for 6-12 weeks, followed by chest imaging (2). Bronchiectasis caused by the microbe is treated with either a bronchoscopy or surgical removal (3). Phrenological treatments to histoplasmosis include amphorcetericin B, ketoconazole, itraconazole, and fluconazole (3). Currently, antifungal agents are being developed to offer alternative treatment (3). To successfully survive as a pathogen, the virus must change itself on a micro level to survive changing conditions, macrophages, and other threats to the fungi’s reproduction (4). Being able to go from an environmental mold to an intercellular yeast is extremely useful for a microbe in an ecosystem that fights for control of those it infects (4). These advantages present within histoplasmosis are what keeps it as a cause of respiratory and systemic disease in mammals (4). There are plenty of treatments available to accommodate all forms of histoplasmosis, making it a microbe that is very simple to cure, despite how hard it tries to
Amazingly, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention discovered almost 50% of adults currently have some form of gum disease. Because this problem is so prevalent, we must educate you on what gum disease is and how you can reverse or repair the damage caused by the condition.

As you know autoimmune diseases are your immune auto-generate antibodies against cells of your body. In here, I don’t tell physiology of autoimmune diseases but I will tell one of most autoimmune diseases that is immune fertility disease. Researchers at the University of Virginia Health System have found a new human protein, radical radial spoke protein 44 (RSP44) in July, 2007. RSP44 is antigen can be found in all men, residing in the sperm tail at the center of a structure known as the axoneme. Antigens can only stimulate antibody production when they come in contact with components of the blood. Under normal conditions, blood and sperm do not mix. Direct contact between the two is prevented by a cellular structure in the testes called
A recent study in 2015 reports that over 15 million people in America have food allergies that is 1 in every 13 people under the age of 18. Making it very likely that somebody in this room is part of these 15 million American’s who have food allergies. If you are somebody who has food allergies, or you know of someone who has food allergies, this speech will help you better understand more about food allergies, so you can deal with food allergies and more importantly be more careful around other people who do. So today, I am going to be informing you about Food allergies.
Candidiasis, also called thrush or moniliasis, is a yeast infection. Candida albicans is an organism that normally makes a quiet home for itself on your skin and doesn't bother anyone. We all carry this organism on our skin, in our mouth, in our gastrointestinal tract (gut), and, in the case of women, in the vagina.
Research is showing that by supplementing minerals, vitamins, amino acids and some herbs, many of these deficiencies can be eliminated. Tips to Start Your Home Treatment Today! Whatever diabetic stage or type you are at, it is important that you are proactive with your health and treatment. Always discuss treatments with your doctor or health provider. Here is a list of various things you can start today!
Candida can be obtained by rubbing a sterile cotton swab over the affected tissue lesions in the mouth and then inoculated in Sabouraud's dextrose agar (SDA). Another technique is using sterile foam pad that has been dipped in a liquid medium, such as Sabouraud's broth. The pad is then placed on the affected lesions in the mucosal cavity for 30 seconds and then transferred to an agar for culture. The last method is the oral rinse technique which require the patient to hold a sterile phosphate buffered saline in the mouth for one minute. The solution is then inoculated on an agar media at 37oC for 24-48 hours (1).
Imagine waking up one morning and having blisters all over your body and every one was the worst itch you’ve ever had. That’s what having chickenpox is like. Before there was a vaccine, chickenpox caused about 4 million people to get sick, more than 10,500 hospitalizations, and about 100 to 150 deaths each

Type 2 diabetes is a progressive condition occurring in adults over 45 years but is now increasing in younger age groups such as children, adolescents and young adults. With type 2 diabetes the body becomes resistant and the insulin gradually loses that capacity to produce enough insulin to the pancreas. Diabetes is the fastest growing chronic condition in Australia. The numbers with people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes is increasing. In the past year more than 100,000 people have been diagnosed with diabetes. (https://www.diabetesaustralia.com.au/diabetes-in-australia) The numbers with people having type 2 diabetes is increasing in children mainly because they are not getting the right about of exercise each day, and eating incorrectly. This is happening because of the all the new electronic gadgets. This is concerning because this disease is taking memorable years from that person’s life. An idea for treatment could be that kids and adults should manage their life style more by eating healthier and doing more exercise. They could also go to the doctors and have
Today i'm going to be talking about Hemophilia and the general overview of it. I will also talk about any potential cures. I will be talking about what Hempohilia can do to your body. I will also be talking about if theres a cure or just a treatment to make it less worse. I will also be talking about how people with Hemophilia deal with this disease. I will also explain how people will benefit from extended research on thi s topic. I’ll also talk about my personal opininon on this topic and what I think about it. So for my first question I’m explaining what the characteristics of Hemophilia are. The characteristics of Hemophilia are not very deadly but can be very annoying I’ll also explan the genetic causes of this disease.
As you may or may not already know, diabetes is a non-communicable disease. Learning about diabetes interests me because my grandmother and grandfather are both diabetic. I see what they go through every day with pricking their finger, injecting insulin and watching what they eat. It seems to be a hassle, but for them- it’s their life.
Yeast Yeast are a tiny form of fungi or plant-like microorganism (visible only under a microscope) that exist in or on all living matter i.e. water, soil, plants, air, etc. A common example of a yeast is the bloom we can observe on grapes. As a living organism yeast needs sugars, water and warmth to stay alive. In addition, albumen or nitrogenous material are also necessary for yeast to thrive.
