Candida and its relationship to Post Nasal Drip.

Candida, known correctly as Candida Albicans is categorized in the yeast sector of the fungal, mold and parasitic viruses that cause damage to the human body. Fungi and molds are closely associated with this yeast.

Yeast, Fungi, mold and parasitic viruses are organisms that thrive off anything that lives, or that may be deceased. This makes the digestive system in the human body and most mammals a perfect residence for such organisms.  

Most cases of candida outbreaks occur when the bodies homeostatic level of good bacteria is compromised, allowing the yeast to infiltrate healthy bacteria and organisms and spread.

Severe side effects can be felt if the Candida yeast infection has infected the body greatly. These include

1. Virginal thrush.
2. Mouth and throat will experience symptoms of discomfort and have outbreaks.

These outbreaks are seen as a thick, persistent white coating on the tongue and at the back of the throat.

The key to relief is treating the CAUSE and not the symptoms of Candida outbreaks. In other words the candida virus should be flushed out first and then the symptoms of thrush, white patches on tongue, and post nasal drip treated. Should one not treat the cause of Candida symptoms, these will persist.

The Candida bacterium is normally found in the mouth and genital area. It is also commonly found in the intestinal tract of one’s body. 

Symptoms of Candida

A few symptoms one may experience as a result of Candia include:

• An upset stomach (Diarrhea or constipation)
• Excess gas
• GERD, Gastro esophageal reflux or acid reflux
• Itching around infected area
• Sweet and sugar craving as this is one of the main foods which assists in Candida multiplication
• Fatigue, lethargy and generally low energy
• A white coating on tongue and throat area which does not go away and may cause a sore throat, coughing or constant clearing of the throat.

Post Nasal Drip and Candida

When an individual has allergies it causes excess mucus to be produced in the nasal passages and sinus cavities. This excess of mucus cannot drain correctly and effectively out the nasal passages at times and as a result, the mucus containing foreign particles flows down the back of the throat, causing post nasal drip. At times, this mucus can contain the Candida bacterium which then becomes lodged in the membrane that lines the throat, esophagus and stomach. From here, the next viable place for the Candida bacterium to spread to is the intestinal tract, resulting in vaginal/genital Candida.

It is therefore important to have any allergies you may have treated. This will help put a stop to any Candida bacterium in mucus from running down the back of the throat and into other body organs.

It is often recommended that when one encounters post nasal drip it is much wiser to spit it out than swallow it as this prevents any mucus from flowing down the back of the throat which may contain unwanted bacteria. Most individuals consider it ill-mannered or disrespectful, when witnessing one participating in these actions, but this is much healthier and helps the body in the long run.
When spitting out the post nasal drip (mucus), please spit discreetly and try and look for a sink where running water can wash the germs away.  Bottom line being that in order to curb the infection one has to treat the cause, such as allergies or foreign debris from resting in the mucus covering the nasal passages and sinus cavities.
This can at time be difficult, because when placed in the working environment and home front we encounter allergens daily. They can vary from dust, to grass, pet dander, ragweed, even food substances can be the allergen and can cause an imbalance of the bacterial organisms in the intestinal tract, resulting in a yeast infection.

The solution, simple!

1. Try changing your life style and living habits as best you can to help stop yourself from developing allergies.
2. Use SinusWars1 to treat allergies/hayfever.
3. Steroids such as Cortisone.
4. SinusWars14 as a natural product to help balance the body’s internal digestive system as well as rid the liver and lymphatic system of unwanted toxins.
5. SinusWars7 treats Inflammation caused by Allergies.
6. A netti pot with preservative free saline solution can be used when one has thick mucus which does not drain and increases ones risks of developing a Candida infection in the nasal passages, throat and Esophagus.
7. CandiBella treats itching in the genital area, which has a white curd-like genital discharge. Urination may be painful due to inflammation of the vaginal tissue.

Post Nasal Drip and a Yeast Infection.

Post nasal Drip is mucus which could have infected bacteria or viruses in it. When it is swallowed it goes into the stomach and stomach acids digest it. When you have an infection and you swallow infected post nasal drip it puts a hamper on your health and intestinal tract. The bacteria infiltrates the intestines and results in the individual having a yeast infection.
