Candida Question #6 How Do I know Your Candida Crusher Program is Going To Work?

How do I know your Candida Crusher Program is going to work? Why would it be any better than other programs for yeast infection I’ve tried?

Well only you can be the judge of that. I can’t be, but I can tell I have been working with my program now for over 20 years involving tens of thousands of patients and I can tell you the program does work. And in my clinical experience seeing patients for many years on end, you tend to tweak and fine tune a program and you tend to use what works and reject what doesn’t work.

But I’ve always found that there are about three types of patients that I tend to see with yeast infections. On patient tends to recover quite quickly. They tend to follow the recommendations, they follow the diet, they follow the lifestyle changes that I recommend, and they recover quite okay; usually within three to four months.

The second group of patients tends to recover more slowly. They will try some recommendations, they tend to be quite busy with their life, they take supplements sporadically, they return occasionally for follow-up visits, they don’t take things too seriously, perhaps because their symptoms aren’t bad enough as category number one. They do recover in the end. Many of them do turn out to be a category one patient and they will eventually recover when they’ve learned many lessons.

Category three don’t recover that well at all. These are often people after a quick fix. These are the people that fall for scams like “Cure your yeast infection in 20 hours” or scams like that. They just want to treat symptoms and get rid of symptoms and ignore causes. About 8 to 10 percent of patients I see fall in category three. I see them once; I don’t see them again. That’s fine. They tend to move from one practitioner to another.

So why would my program be different from any other program that perhaps you’ve looked at on the internet or in a book. For example, I offer eight different home tests that you can perform at home and I like you to do two weekly testing intervals, sort of like you know self-testing. So I’ve given you a home testing tracker in my Candida Crusher book as well.

I’d like you also to track the severity of your symptoms over three to four months to give me an indication which way the severity of symptoms are heading, if they’re improving or if they’re getting worse. So I’m a big believer in test and measure. If you put a good protocol into place, you follow the recommendations; you should get the right outcome. If you don’t, we’re going to look for the hidden causes, which I cover my deeply in my book.

So that’s a little bit about my program. I hope that answers your question, why is my candida crusher program better.

Candida Question #5 What Is A Vaginal Yeast Infection? I Have Discharge Could This Be Vaginal Yeast Infection?

This person also wishes to remain anonymous. These are typical emails I get on a regular basis.

What is a vaginal yeast infection? I have a discharge. Could this be a vaginal yeast infection?

Well, in my book I explain in Chapter 5 in detail the difference between the different types of vaginal irritations and conditions that can affect that part of the female anatomy. That’s suffice it to say this area is a perfect breeding ground for a yeast infection. It is warm. It is moist. It is dark and it also has varying levels of secretions in there depending on the hormone level of the female at any given time.

So, it’s very common for females to have a yeast infection at some stage of their life, and most women, in fact, will at some time in their life have a yeast infection.

Generally, these are self-limiting and not a problem. It’s only when they become chronic and recurring that there is something further that needs looking into, and for this reason, I recommend that you have a proper diagnosis to establish whether you have bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection. In fact, BV or bacterial vaginosis is more common than yeast infection. It involves bacteria and not fungus and is a frothy, fish briny smell, whereas the vaginal Candida albicans will have a more cheesy discharge and have a moldy musky sort of smell.

So, if it’s chronic and recurring, do get yourself checked out and have a good look at my book because there is extensive information in Candida Crusher on how to overcome a chronic vaginal yeast infection.

Thank you.

Candida Question #4 Can Low Estrogen Cause A Yeast Infection?

Hi, there. Erik Bakker again from Candida Crusher. Here’s FAQ No. 4. This patient prefers to remain anonymous.

Can low estrogen cause a yeast infection?

Yes, absolutely. Having a high or low estrogen level can predispose a female towards a vaginal yeast infection. Estrogen has quite an interesting effect on the vaginal tissue. So when there’s not enough estrogen, the tissue can be quite dry and the person’s much more prone to getting a bacterial or a yeast-related infection.

And if a person has too much estrogen or has too much mucous secretion, they can actually also favor the reproduction of many yeast in this area. Many females will notice an increase in yeast infections before their period or around perimenopause time for this reason when changes in estrogen occur.
So, yes, to answer your question, a low estrogen can cause a yeast infection.
