Erin's response to the yeast issue

I found a good definition of candida on www.patientsmedical.com...

"Candida is commonly found in 80 % of the people; it is seen in the form of a skin rash and can sometimes be the cause of dangerous infections. Candida Albicans is a yeast microorganism that commonly lives in the intestinal tract of every human being. It shares space in your bowel with a variety of other microorganisms, mostly helpful bacteria, called probiotics. The bacteria to yeast ration in a healthy person; is about 10:1, so in a normal bowel everything lives in a nice ecological balance. The problem comes when your "inner ecology" gets off balance through a variety of causes. The bowel becomes vulnerable to other opportunistic' microorganisms seeking a new home. With no healthy probiotics to keep it under control, the growth of yeast takes off, multiplies and causes Candida Overgrowth yeast infection resulting in a multitude of symptoms."

Symptoms of candida overgrowth include:
fatigue 
drowsiness 
uncoordination 
lack of concentration 
mood swings 
dizziness 
headaches 
bad breath 
coughing and wheezing 
joint swelling or arthritis 
failing vision or spots in front of the eyes 
ear pain or deafness 
burning or tearing eyes 
muscle aches 
depression 
irritability 
sweet cravings 
increasing food and chemical sensitivities 
numbness and tingling 
cold hands and feet 
asthma 
hay fever 
multiple allergies 
hives and rashes 
eczema and psoriasis 
chronic fungal infections like athlete's foot 
ringworm 
fingernail/ toenail infections

Sounds like fun, huh?

I love your candida rap Margaret yo
