Often when people discover that they have a chronic Candida infection they focus on diet and foods to clear up the Candida overgrowth.
However, sometimes there are other factors that can be roadblocks to success when on a Candida eliminating diet. One such factor is stress as it can be a contributing factor to getting candidiasis and a factor in getting rid of the yeast.
Stress and the Body
As you are probably aware, ongoing stress is not good for the body. We have developed mechanisms to help us cope with difficult situations in life, but these mechanisms are really just meant to work for short periods of time. If a person is faced with prolonged stress these mechanisms actually cause harm to the body. Ongoing stress causes adrenal fatigue and this in turn weakens the immune system, inhibits proper digestion, interferes with sleep patterns, effects sexual health, and throws hormone levels out of balance among other things.
