Fungal Infections
Fungus / Candida / Yeast
By Dr. Farzad Farahmand:
Fungi are a broad class of microorganisms that can live in the air, soil, water and plants. There are also some Fungi that live naturally in the human body. Just like many other microorganisms, there are beneficial Fungi and harmful Fungi. Factors such as weakened immune system, or prolonged use of Antibiotics and immunosuppressive medications such as Corticosteroids, can increase the likelihood of a fungal infection, by creating an environment in the body in which Fungi can thrive. Fungi can infect almost any part of the human body, including skin, nails, the respiratory tract, urogenital tract and the digestive tract.
Although several species of Fungi are potentially pathogenic in humans, Candida, or more specifically Candida Albicans, is the most common microorganism responsible for causing Fungal infections. Candida Albicans is a type of Yeast that is commonly found among the microorganisms found in the Gut Flora, as well as in small amounts in the mouth, belly or the skin.
While under normal conditions these microorganisms do not cause any harm to the body, under certain environmental conditions, causing an imbalance between the number of beneficial bacteria (Probiotics) versus the number of the harmful bacteria in the gut, they can multiply, grow uncontrollably and cause a variety of Physical and Emotional symptoms.
Fungal infections can range in severity from superficial to life threatening. For example, Fungal infections affecting only the top layers of the skin can be treatable and often have a relatively limited Impact soon the quality of life. However, Fungal infections can have much more serious consequences, and can even be lethal in case of entering the systemic circulation.
Chronic, low level Candida infestation can cause a variety of non-specific symptoms resembling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Depression, Anxiety and Fibromyalgia.
