My doctor claimed that most people in their 30s start to experience these
symptoms and that I shouldn’t worry since small dietary changes (avoiding
milk) accompanied by taking Pepto Bismol, anti-inflammatory and antifungal
creams should work. When I told him I had already used most of what he
recommended with no success, he claimed I hadn’t used them with
persistence. He failed to explain why these symptoms occurred in the first
place and neglected to warn me of how these conditions could develop into
more serious health problems if left untreated.
Several weeks after the medical checkup, I noticed that my vaginal yeast
infection, including the heartburn and digestion problems, got significantly
worse as the antifungal creams only alleviated the problem.
I was failing to realize that all the while toxins and yeast were building up
inside my intestines. It was only later that I had been diagnosed as having
Candida fungal overgrowth and that my vaginal yeast infection, oral thrush,
nasal drainage, aggravated heartburn and the “floaters” in my eyes were
nothing but symptoms for this seemingly uncontrollable yeast condition.
When Western medicine failed to help me, I kept trying different kinds of anti-
Candida diets, took the famous ThreeLac treatment, tried various types of
nutritional approaches, HSOs (soil organisms), colloidal silver, homeopathic
therapies and reflexology. Some of these methods did have a positive effect
on my yeast infection symptoms, but again, it was only for a short term. It
seemed as if my Candida overgrowth and all its related symptoms were there
to stay.
As I started researching into holistic approaches to healing, the first thing I
realized was that there was never a single cause for a disease, and there
were definitely no magic pills or quick fixes. I soon figured out the
conventional approach does not and will not ever offer a genuine cure for my
condition. At best, conventional medicine offers temporary relief since it’s
designed to deal with the symptoms of the disease and not the disease itself.
