What stimulates overgrowth of Candida? Several external factors can stimulate Candida overgrowth. Antibiotics are well-known triggers. Stress, illness and certain medications, such as cortisone and painkillers, depress our immune system and creates a good environment for Candida overgrowth. Finally birth control pills, hormonal changes (during pregnancy), as well as diets high in simple sugars and yeast are causes of Candida overgrowth.

How does Candida overgrowth affect me? As the Candida fungus grows, it adheres to the tissues in the intestines and competes with the body’s cells for vital nutrients. Simultaneously Candida secrets a number of toxins and antigens, which in turn make the body strive to produce antibodies to cope with these, thus stimulating allergies, eczema etc. The excessive growth of Candida burdens the body’s immune system and weakens its resis-tance. It is well documented that magnesium is drawn from the body’s cells when there is excessive growth of Candida. This can result in nervousness, tiredness and irritability.
