Candida albicans is a yeast that exists inside all of us. Normally it presents no problems, but today's widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, contraceptive pills, and steroids, as well as a sugar-rich diet, can cause a proliferation of this parasitic yeast. This can often be the root cause of a wide variety of problems such as depression, anxiety, irritability, bloatedness, heartburn, tiredness, allergies, acne, migraine, cystitis, and menstrual problems. Leon Chaitow, using the latest research and his own clinical experience, shows how to determine if yeast is your problem and provides a comprehensive, non-drug program for its control.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to candida albicans., January 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Candida Albicans: Could Yeast Be Your Problem? (Paperback)

I had already been diagnosed with candida albicans when I had the good fortune to find this little book. I read it in one sitting and was released from years of guilt and confusion over my uncontrollable emotions. I learned that emotional instability, among many other symptoms, was due to the candida. I am purchasing multiple copies of this book to give to my family and friends because it is an excellent and easily understood tool to present candida albicans to people who have never heard of it. It is not the definitive work on the subject but it has enough information to get you going. The natural course of curing candida is much more successful than using pharmaceutical drugs and this book touches on that area. I wish that there was more information on curing candida in this book but other than that, it was extrememly helpful and encouraging.

This review is from: Candida Albicans: Could Yeast Be Your Problem? (Paperback)

Most Americans are harboring this dreaded over grown bacteria and it is being overlooked by thier doctors. As long as Americans stay on thier typical diets of antibiotic laced meat, sugar and processed foods they are headed for a condition they would not wish upon thier worst enimies. This book should be read by every one who wants to stay well and those that don't you need not read this very helpful method to prevent future sickness.

Introductory text explaining the causes and symptoms of Candida Albicans, and Candida Related Complex (CRC). A must read for those experiencing the problems caused by the systemic Candida infection, and for those who want to avoid the long and painful road to recovery.
