how to reduce yeast (candida) infections

did you know hormone imbalances can cause yeast infections?🥲

yeast (Candida) love thrive with hormone fluctuations because our pH changes! If you find that you’re always getting yeast infections during ovulation (peak estrogen) or before or after your period then your hormones may be out of balance!

1) Focusing on balancing estrogen can really help reduce yeast infections ✨

2) cut back on carbs!! For 3-10 days cut back on rice, wheat, pasta, sugar, crackers, cookies, bread etc. this will stop giving the Candida fuel & symptoms will ease up ✨

3) change out of sweaty activewear: this is a moist environment that yeast & bad bacteria can thrive

4) cut back on sugary coffee & soda: again carbs (sugar) are fuel to the Candida + caffeine can increase symptoms as well ☕️

5) eat/take probiotics: you want to restore balance to your microbiome & adding good bacteria cultures can be beneficial!

6) use fragrance free menstrual care & feminine care: fragrance contains ingredients that can disrupt pH which can lead to infections

7) reduce ultra processed & fast food: these cause inflammation & reduce your ability to fight yeast infections

8) stay hydrated: proper hydration helps maintain your vaginal microbiome & pH!

Hope this helps xx

... Read moreYeast infections, caused by an overgrowth of Candida, can be influenced by several factors including hormone imbalances and dietary choices. Hormones like estrogen play a significant role, especially during ovulation. To combat yeast infections, it's crucial to cut back on carbohydrates, which feed Candida and make symptoms worse. Additionally, maintaining proper hygiene by changing out of sweaty clothing and avoiding fragrances in feminine care products can help prevent infections. Incorporating probiotics into your diet is vital for restoring the natural balance of your microbiome, while staying hydrated supports overall vaginal health. Reducing ultra-processed and fast foods is equally important, as these can lead to inflammation and weaken your body’s defenses against infections. Remember, small lifestyle changes can have a big impact on your health. Implement these tips to help manage and reduce the occurrence of yeast infections effectively.
