Do you suffer from recurring vaginal or male yeast infection? below is a home remedy or yeast infection treatment for men and women.
But first, what causes yeast infection? It is caused by a fungus named Candida Albicans. Yeast is a tiny organism that lives in small numbers on the skin and in the vagina. When the acidic balance in the vagina is lowered, the yeast grows and causes a vaginal infection.
Yeast infection symptoms are not serious but are very unpleasant. They include a thick white discharge from the vagina. Burning during urination, vaginal itching, irritation, redness and swelling. Irritation, soreness and white spots on the penis.
One of the main causes of recurring yeast infection is sexual activity. If a woman with yeast infection has unprotected sex, her partner can contract the infection. Since alot of men do not even know they are infected as they do not show any visible symptoms right away. The woman can treat her infection only to contract it again from her partner. Thus the recurring yeast infection can go on until the male notices symptoms.
One of the best home remedies for treating yeast infection is dabbing apple cider vinegar mixed with garlic and water to dilute the vinegar. The vinegar stops the yeast from growing while the garlic stops the itching.

Hi,
I found eliminating sugars/carbs all together (a high proteins diet) helps control yeast infection.
My infection was on my finger, it wasn’t major but it was recurring. I used a cream that my doctor prescribed, it wasn’t an over the counter, it did work but only while I used it! as soon as I stopped the itching and redness came back
I follow the instructions outlined here and saw pretty quick results (within the day) http://www.browsemysite.net/member/link.php?tid=24
Hope this helps.

Some companies have been trying to take advantage of the Candida epidemic. This one really made me mad. It’s called Micronutra (goes by other names too: Techmedica, True Value Media -they kept changing names) First they set up about 30 websites selling, “reviewing”, and “blogging” their product Candidol. (They sell basically this same formula as a “cure” for many different diseases.)
Well their karmas have caught up with them because I just read by googling thier company names that the owners got arrested by the feds for fraudulent advertising. (google techmedica fraud or candidol fraud)
It just seems that there is always someone to take your money if you have a need. Too bad. Buyer beware is the thing to remember.
