Candida: Immune System
built 790 days ago
Candida needs food to grow just like parasites do. The more food Candida has, the more it can grow. In tends to grow like a weed in your intestines. When it has food it perks up and spreads. Your own immune system can inhibit its growth it most cases. But when enough friendly bacteria are killed off by "Cipro" your immune system will not be able to fight off Candida.

To clarify, this research shows that a protein found in the cell wall of Candida is very simiilar to gluten. As a result, the immune system can confuse gluten found in grains for the cell wall of the Candida and then mount a response against the gluten! The immune cell bound gluten then damages the small intestinal wall as in Celiac Disease!

Other methods include acupuncture which probably works by stimulating the immune system and homeopathy, using a constitutional remedy or potentized Candida nosode which can ... be very effective. A combination of the above techniques is probably best.
