Yeast Infection, The Silent Epidemic

This common infection in American women caused them to spend almost a billion dollars for treatment of this fungus in 2008 alone. Most of this money was spent on over the counter medications which generally are only effective as a temporary solution.

These infections affect up to 85% of men, who usually suffer in the form of digestive problems and skin yeast.

Maybe you suffer from bloating, indigestion, skin problems, burning and chronic itching, constipation, loose stools, or depression and mood swings?

You may also suffer from eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, allergies, irritable bowel syndrome, crohns disease, cfs, or fibromyalgia?

Candida yeast infections often produce these common symptoms and diseases.

Yeast infection and fungal disease do not suffer from a shortage of scientific knowledge, but strangely, the twentieth century has very little knowledge of them. In the Bible, under Leviticus 14 in verses 34 and 35, the talk of fungus and fungi causing disease is nothing new.

Dr. Lida Mattman, a fungus expert with Wayne State University, asks the question in her excellent book Stealth Pathogens, "Are fungi in blood smears overlooked because they are confused with blood cells?" Her answer is a resounding "YES".

Dr. M. G. Rinaldi says, "Given the right immuno-compromised host, virtually any fungus can kill a human being."

Clinical Mycology, by C. C. Kibbler, published in 1995, is a compilation of research reports from 18 prominent physicians from universities such as Duke, Stanford, Texas, and others. They talk about the dangers of yeast infection, candida, other fungi, and their related diseases. Chapters include Bone and Joint, Cardiovascular System, Dermatology, Central Nervous System, Gastrointestinal Tract, Ear, Nose and Throat, Respiratory System, and even Ophthalmology. You would think that every doctor in the country would be aware of the risks of yeast and fungus as a cause of many modern diseases.

Fungi are believed by most doctors to only infect immuno-compromised individuals. If that is the case, why are so many women suffering from vaginal yeast infections? Why on Primetime, April 9th, 1997, did the show take a look at infants dying in their homes from mold exposure? Or why did San Joaquin Valley Fever kill perfectly healthy young military men?

So, who is immune system deficient? Could the water we drink and the food we eat be contributing to immune system deficiency? Since we know antibiotics are fungal mycotoxins (poison), is everyone that has ever taken an antibiotic immuno-compromised? Are the processed foods and the huge amounts of sugar, of which the average American eats 7 pounds a year maybe responsible?

In 1963, Dr. Harold T. Hyman published in The Complete Home Medical Encyclopedia that one half of the US population had suffered from an "unrecognized yeast infection or fungal disorder" at one time or another in their lives.

Doug A. Kaufman, with over 30 years of research on fungi and human health, asks these very important questions, "Has medical science really progressed since 1963? Or are 125,000,000 Americans still suffering from unrecognized fungal disorders?"

The links on the left are research reports and firsthand experiences I have assembled about yeast and fungal diseases. I had been a sufferer for over 30 years and didn't even know it. In spite of seeing a few doctors with other health problems that are caused by this nasty fungi, they never put it all together to figure out what I had. They would only treat the effect of the illness I had at the time, never looking for an underlying cause.

Yeast and candida, along with the other 400 fungi that can affect the human body, as well as their associated fungal diseases, can be defeated and eliminated from your body with knowledge and some effort.

That is the purpose of this website: to arm you with the knowledge to free yourself from the suffering that can be caused by yeast infections and its many diseases.
