Category: Candida Crusher FAQ Videos

I’d like to answer a question today that I get asked quite regularly. Can jock itch be transferred or passed on from a guy to a woman? Is it contagious? Can it move from one person to another?

Well, it can in some circumstances, but it’s not really likely, and with proper hygiene, it doesn’t really occur. Woman can develop jock itch and guys can develop jock itch. The most likely way that it’s going to be passed from one person to another is by sexual or intimate contact. It is a possibility, but it’s not generally likely. Particularly if the person, the recipient, has not got jock itch and he or she is definitely into hygiene or cleanliness. It’s not usually going to be a problem.

While it can be passed on, it’s not usually likely to be passed on. Not unlike a condition of venereal warts, for example. There are other types of conditions, herpes, and genital herpes. And these conditions are much more likely to be passed on intimately, I believe, than jock itch is.

Jock itch is a condition called tinea cruris. Athlete’s foot is tinea pedis. In other videos, I’ll talk a little bit about the link between Athlete’s foot and jock itch because it can be sometimes a problem.

But the passing on, not usually an issue. If you’ve got jock itch and you’re a guy, just check out my other videos on jock itch because there are a lot of natural solutions for getting rid of this really awful and annoying condition. You can cure this thing. Especially if it’s like really bad and you want to get rid of it and you considered to treat the internals, as well as the groin region.

So I hope that answers your question about passing it from one person to another. Thank you for tuning in.

Frequently asked question. Can I take antifungals with probiotics for Candida treatment? You can, and, in fact, they actually work really well together, not against each other like is commonly believed.

Many people believe that if you’re taking a probiotic, it’s going to get cancelled out by the antifungal product. This is not true, particularly if you take an antifungal dietary supplement that contains a lot of natural foods like garlic extract or argan oil. These things don’t kill beneficial bacteria. People have been consuming these natural foods for thousands of years, and many people who consume these foods do not have horrific die off. They don’t have horrific yeast infections. They also have very large amounts of beneficial bacteria in their digestive system.

What we know also from research – even the medical people – there was an article written in a gastroenterology journal in 2008 where they said that probiotics actually, in fact, are very beneficial to take alongside antibiotics. Research found that it stopped diarrhea, so you can take these together. I don’t even believe you need to take them apart. Probiotics actually will certainly live in the digestive system. We know that from people who eat yogurt and foods like that. There is belief that if you take a probiotic with food, it will cancel out. It will get killed by digestive enzymes, but that’s not the case. There are many types of bacteria that live in the stomach environment, in fact. There are bacteria that live throughout the digestive system in a wide range of pH conditions. So don’t make these assumptions because you read this sort of information from what I call “arm chair” experts on Google. A lot of this stuff is rubbish. It’s nonsense. Feel free to take probiotics and enzymes with food and also an antifungal supplement with food.

It is probably prudent to take one at the beginning of the meal and one at the end of the meal, for example. You can separate them. You don’t necessarily have to take them together, but you don’t need to split them up by several hours as some people say. I just don’t really believe that’s the right solution. The main thing is to take these things and not sort of intellectualize when you should take them, as long as you take them on a regular basis. That’s going to make the difference because a lot of people don’t even take supplements, and other people say you need to take them at this time or that time. Just take them and see what happens.

So I hope that answers your question. Thank you.

Thanks for tuning in. We’re talking about a bit of a sensitive topic today, so I’m going to talk about jock itch and having sex with your partner. Might be a bit uneasy for some guys to talk about this kind of topic, but I’m going to talk about it anyway.

In the early days of my practice, I worked with a medical practitioner, a gay medical practitioner, in fact, to be honest with you, but I had a great relationship with this guy in the clinic and I saw lots of different kinds of patients. I saw lots of straight males. I saw lots of gay males. I saw lots of lesbians and straight women, but the thing is, I talked with a lot of patients about sex. I’m one of these practitioners that talk to their patients about everything.

Sexual relations is an important part of our relationships with people, whether we are straight or gay. I don’t care. I don’t look at a person’s sexuality. I look at the person, to be honest. Now to be honest with you, I’ve dealt with a lot of people with STDs in the past, with venereal warts, with Chlamydia, with Herpes, but also with Candida yeast infections.

I can tell you something. If you’ve got jock itch as a guy or a vaginal infection as a woman, there’s one thing I want you to really think about. It’s easy to pass a Candida yeast infection from one person to another. It is possible. We can’t really say that a yeast infection of the private area is a sexually transmitted disease, but it can be transmitted sexually. It certainly can, and I’ve seen this with many of my patients in the past.

If you’re a guy and you have jock itch and you’ve got a girlfriend or a wife or a partner and you’re a bit worried about it, then you really need to take precautions because you can move this tinea infection from one person to another. It certainly can happen. I’m talking about tinea cruris or jock itch. It can happen.

It’s not easy to move like toenail fungus from one person to another unless you’re doing some unusual things, but you can certainly pass a genital yeast infection from one person to another. It can be done, and I’ve heard it done. I’ve talked to many patients who’ve moved these infections from one person to another, and it’s not a pleasant thing to do.

What do you do? Do you put on a condom? Is it going to make any difference if you’ve got a yeast infection in the rectal area or the scrotum, do you think a condom is going to help? Probably not. Oral sex probably is not quite the same as having sex in other ways, genital sex, but if you’ve got jock itch, especially if it’s really bad, you need to be pretty good with hygiene and think carefully what you’re doing here because you can move these infections across.

My recommendations are if you’ve got quite bad jock itch is to try to clear it up as much as you can, and take precautions when you’re having sexual intercourse because you can move these infections across. Try to do the right thing by your partner. Try to improve your gastrointestinal health and also your local health in that region.

You can read a lot more in Candida Crusher about how to avoid transmission of a jock itch infection from one person to another, and it’s certainly possible to do. It may be a bit more difficult in casual sex, but if you’re in a committed relationship like I am, think about your partner more carefully. Be open and honest with your partner. Talk about these sort of things, and make sure you get the right kind of treatment. Go to yeastinfection.org and look at the treatment and please do my yeast infection quiz. I want you to nail this thing. It’s not fair on your partner if you don’t talk about jock itch, and you transfer it to your partner, whether your partner is male or female. You really need to be serious about this and get on top of it.

Jock itch can be fixed up, and if you follow my treatment methods, you can nail this thing in three to six months. I’ve helped a lot of patients just like you to nail this thing. It’s an awful condition. I had it myself and it can be nailed.

So take my advice. Go to yeastinfection.org. Do my quiz and do the right thing by your partner if you’re in a sexual relationship.

Thanks for tuning in.
