 Candida albicans is a diploid fungus that normally "live"in  areas such as skin, gut, vagina, buccal cavity and rectum. Although a person's body is their normal living environment, at one moment they can start spreading  without control. This happens when they break the bacterial flora in body and the most frequent "victims" are people with weak immune system.  

There are various factors that lead to this "fast spreading." Long medical tests proved that not only diet can cause this. Taking antibiotics for a long period of time can also be the reason. The question is "Why antibiotics can increase spread of fungus?"

The purpose of antibiotics is to destroy"bad"bacteria, that causes diseases and infections. The main problem is that with the destruction of bad bacteria, "dies" and "good" bacteria. And they "control" fungi (Candida and not only) to not reproduce themselves  indiscriminately.

Very strong antibiotics or prolonged use may lead to an imbalance in the intestinal flora, allowing parasites, fungi, and "bad" bacteria to grow easily in this environment,  rapidly and uncontrollably.  

How can you protect yourself?

Do not start taking antibiotics unless absolutely necessary (unfortunately many doctors in the world will tell you that you have come too late………, taking hypocrisy to give you the most powerful and expensive antibiotics, ostensibly looking after your health) . Nowadays, there are much more information than 100 years ago, and we need to use it.

Read a lot and do not trust to everybody easily! 

The Internet is a wonderful discovery, you can receive a lot of information from different sources. Compare! Pharmaceutical corporations have huge advertising techniques and their main goal is to sell as many drugs, relying on the ignorance and illiteracy of the vast majority of the world population.

Their main weapon is striking fear, that something will happen to you, if you do not get this, or that antibiotic. Making a drug costs little money, but companies earn huge profits. Do not be ignorant!

Diseases such as the common cold, fever and many others do not require antibiotics. Unfortunately, many people believe that antibiotics are a quick way to get rid of various infections. So, they do not allow their immune system to deal with the infection. Ultimately, the result is development of resistance to them. Surely next time your doctor will prescribe a stronger antibiotic.

If you still trust antibiotics note the following:

• eat a healthy and balanced diet
•  limit your intake of sugar and confectionery
• drink plenty of water (at least 2 liters a day) to clear body’s infection
• consume a lot of yogurt
• do exercisen -this will boost your immune system
