Let me make a confession. I had no idea how serious yeast infection (Candida for the more informed ones) can be when I started writing this post. I just came across this book promising a 12 hour all natural cure for yeast infection that left me a bit bemused. Yeast?! The first things I thought of were bread, cheese and beer. Three things that are my all-time favorites, though not in the specified order. What left me completely baffled was the list of symptoms. Would you believe that a yeast infection can make me have any (whichever is biologically possible) or a whole bunch of the following…

•Premature Aging •Vaginal Discharge •Arthritis •Depression •Chronic Rashes •Tiredness or Fatigue •Poor Memory •Irritability •Joint Pain or Swelling •Vaginal Odor •PMS •Digestive problems •Muscle Aches •Short attention span •Head, Hand, Hip and Knee Pain •Acne •Respiratory Infections •Memory loss •Lowered Immune System •Lowered Self Esteem •Impotence •Depression •White Vaginal Discharge •Hypoglycemia •Urinary disorders •Skin Lesion• Shortness of Breath •Food allergies •Learning and Memory problems •Painful Sex or Sexual dysfunction

Scary?! I could count quite a handful of them happening to me one time or the other. So I took it up with my Sis who happens to be a doctor. We had a rather candid chat about Candida and it turned out that often medication is prescribed for visible symptoms while root causes of problems like yeast infection go unnoticed. This results in frequent recurrence of a problem and it becomes chronic. I read on the Internet and found some useful information. You want to read about it too? Go here!

Well, I don’t know for certain if I ever had a yeast infection, but next time I need to visit a doctor I will keep it in mind, especially if there is some natural cure available. You think you would like to take a look at the book? Go here!
