Cause and Effect of a Fungus Infection
There are lots of things that cause a fungus infection (fungal infection). And the invasion of fungus can wreak havoc in other parts of your body. The result is organs not directly related to the site of infection not working right.
Percieve all conflict as patterns of energy seeking harmonious balance as elements in a whole. Dhyani Twahoo, Etowah Cherokee The first and most important cause could be being run down. This can mean illness, stress, over worked and under paid, not enough rest, the list goes on and on and on.
The second most important reason for a fungus to take hold can be taking antibiotics. They kill the bad bugs, but also kill the good bacteria in your intestines. When this happens it gives the bad guys more room to play. Your food doesn't digest like it should, so it sits there and rots. Which causes your immune system to be undernourished. Then when that fungus exposes itself to you you can't fight it off. It takes up residence and feeds and grows. Lots of prescription and over the counter drugs cause the same chain reaction. It kind of grosses me out to think about it. Birth control pills and synthetic steroids are also culprits. The bottom line here is to stay as healthy as possible and you are less likely to get sick. I can hear you saying, "sick? I don't feel sick, I just have a fungus infection". Well the truth is, if you don't treat that infection both internally and externally and get rid of it, it could very likely make you sick. Some of the body parts it affects are the adrenal glands and the digestive system. The adrenals secrete lots of different hormones to keep your system in balance. When they are overworked, the system is out of balance. The first noticable sign of this is usually being tired more than usual. They actually play a role in regulating the heart rate, blood vessels, GI tract, kidneys, lungs, bladder, skin, fat cells, liver, pancreas, and eyes. When the fungus invades your GI tract (gastrointestinal tract) it can feel like a flu bug. It causes inflammation or swelling. This results in the natural flora (good bacteria) in your gut to get all messed up (unbalanced). The result of this can be malabsorption (not getting the nutrients out of the food you eat), inflammatory bowel disease, leaky gut syndrome, and candidiasis. Candidiasis can be either fungal or yeast. I'm not trying to scare you or say that if you get ring worm or athletes foot you'll just get sicker. I'm trying to let you know that you should treat this kind of fungus infection both internally and externally. Especially if it is a recurring problem. It is extremely important to treat the cause of an illness. Just treating the symptoms does no good in the long run. Using natural products that your body recognizes work much better than artificial chemicals. You will see the results in the long term. Using a natural home remedy to get rid of fungus can be a permanent fix instead of a band-aid. Three cheers for natural health!
