Apple Cider Vinegar – Can it help against Candida?

A vinegar douche for yeast infections is fast and effective. But,why you have developed a yeast infection in the first place? If you understand what has caused he infection you can treat the root cause and not just the symptoms.Then you will hopefully not suffer from recurring infections ever again.

Candida albicans is an organism that is naturally present in the, vagina on the skin and in the lower intestinal tract. This organism, given the opportunity will mutate into the fungal yeast infection which is also called thrush. If you have a strong immune system, the candida albicans will be prevented from overgrowing due to the presence  of the favorable bacteria, called Bifidobacterium Bifidus and Lactobacillus acidophilus. These keep the candida under control.

If you have a weakened immune system you may have less of this kind of bacteria. If you have been given a course of antibiotics or steroids these bacteria will be killed along with the bacteria causing your infection which therefore allows the overgrowth of the candida albicans to take place.

In certain conditions the Candida Albicans will grow developing into Candidiasis which is more commonly known as Thrush or a yeast infection. If allowed to grow out of control the micro-organism which has mutated into a fungi may infiltrate the mucosal lining of gastrointestinal tract and get into the bloodstream. This means the toxic fungi in the blood stream is able to move quickly around the body. This form of the condition can lead to chronic infection  which can damage major organs of the body.

Apple Cider vinegar is very effective if it is used in conjunction with an anti-candida diet. The combination will help  to manage the effects of the overgrowth of the candida albicans organism. Vinegar when used as a douche for anal and vaginal infections is effective at alleviating the itching associated with a yeast or thrush infection. It can also be used as a gargle or mouthwash. This will start to reuce the thrush in the mouth and also in the gut.
