Each and
every one of can have vulnerability to yeast
infection. Sometimes, risk factors may increase for
some people, due to number of mitigating factors. It is
essential to understand these factors in order to
prevent yourself from yeast
infection.
People Who
Get Yeast Infection
Yeast
infection is the result of uncontrolled growth of
Candida microorganism in the body. This microorganism is
usually harmless. However, sometimes, some internal and
external factors can pose threat to the other
microorganisms, which control the growth of Candida
fungus. When this happens, Candida fungus rapidly
multiplies leading to yeast infection. In some people
risk factors can be greater. Hence, they are more
vulnerable to yeast infection. People who have
the following problems may get yeast infection more
rapidly than others.
1)
Diabetics:
Diabetics
have high blood sugar level in their body. Yeast
infection usually feeds on sugar and glycogen. Hence
people who suffer from diabetes, specially the ones who
have high blood sugar problem can have vulnerability
to yeast infection.
2)
Obesity: Obese and
overweight individuals don't just have problems of
excess fat, but they also have a lifestyle that may
trigger yeast infection. Obese individuals have a
fondness for sweets, fried food and more. Hence, they
may be more vulnerable to yeast infection. Also,
extremely obese or morbidly obese people find it
difficult to clean themselves that effectively. Hence,
moisture may accumulate in between the folds of the skin
leading to the growth of Candida
fungus.
3) People
on antibiotics: It is
believed rightly that antibiotics can harm the good
microorganisms that control the growth of Candida
fungus. Hence, people who are on antibiotics often get
exposed to yeast infection.
4) Women
on birth control pills: Women who
take birth control bills are more vulnerable to yeast
infection because of the products. Many hormonal changes
take place because of birth control pills. Sometimes,
there is a rise in glycogen content, leading to yeast
infection.
5) Newborn
babies: Newborn
babies also get yeast infection at the time of birth
from their mothers. Hence, they also have greater
vulnerability to yeast
infection.
Besides
the above, almost all people face the risk of yeast
infection at some point of time in their lives. Hence,
no one is an exception when it comes to yeast infection.
Prevention
and care
Sometimes, despite all precautions, the vulnerability to yeast infection turns into reality and people often find themselves at the mercy of this infection. Hence, this signals that even when thinking about prevention and care, you should look beyond the mundane and hackneyed forms of preventive measures to deal with possible yeast infection. In fact, holistic approach can be your best option both during prevention and during treatment. Holistic approach can reduce your vulnerability to yeast infection. Therefore, treatment becomes unnecessary, as the infection does not get hold of you. However, people who are already suffering from yeast infection can also use the natural holistic approach to get rid of their infection quickly and efficiently and without the risks of lingering side effects.
