Candida cleanse helps to stop the growth of yeast. This article provides some easy candida cleanse recipes which might prove beneficial.
Candida is a type of fungus that resides in the body, however, it does not cause any harm as the immune system keeps it under control. Due to some reasons like steroids, antibiotics, birth control pills, excessive sugar, sexual intercourse with an infected partner etc., the species C. albicans overgrows in the mouth or genital region. This infection is known as Candidiasis. Sometimes this infection is unnoticeable while sometimes it can be very painful. It has to be treated with a specific candidiasis treatment, but one can also take efforts from their side to decrease the infection and the candida diet is one way to do so.
