More people than ever are becoming aware that bacteria, which were once thought to just be pathogens that cause disease, actually can advance and support the health of the human body. The probiotic bacteria, most of which resides in the gastro-intestinal tract, doesn’t just help support good digestion. It also strengthens the immune system and makes it easier for the body to fight off unhealthy bacteria, viruses – and funguses like yeast.
Yeast infections can be a major problem – especially for women. However, the “prebiotic” components of apple cider vinegar, which foster the healthy probiotics in the digestive tract, can help to control these outbreaks naturally and prevent more from happening in the future. Read on to find out more about it.
Taking Apple Cider Vinegar to Control Yeast
To take advantage of the natural power of apple cider vinegar, simply drink a tablespoon full diluted in a glass of water in the morning, around dinnertime and again at night before going to bed. Follow this regimen every day and pretty soon, if there have been problems with yeast overgrowths, those problems will start to recede. Why?
To begin with, apple cider vinegar has natural anti-fungal compounds that seek out yeasts and other forms of fungus and destroy them. It also helps to flush out toxins and other harmful pathogens from the body, making the immune system stronger and better able to fend off these outbreaks and overgrowths. If the taste of the apple cider vinegar seems a bit strong, don’t worry – a little lemon or stevia can be mixed in to improve its taste or it can be added to herbal iced teas to make a great warm-weather cooler.
Some Tips for Buying Apple Cider Vinegar
To be truly effective, the apple cider vinegar that is purchased for this therapy must:
Be organic, to avoid exposure to pesticides and other toxins that can make the problem worseBe unpasteurized and unfilteredContain the “mother”, the cloudy-looking substance which settles at the bottom of the bottle and which contains a wealth of enzymes and healthy bacteria
Daily dosing with this pre-biotic health tonic will help to kill off the yeast overgrowths. It is especially effective if it is done in combination with good hydration, a sugar-free and grain-free diet (since these tend to only feed the yeast and make it worse) and warm baths with Epsom salts to help detox the system and get to the root of this problem.
In short, if yeast overgrowth is a problem, don’t automatically reach for over-the-counter anti-yeast medications. Apple cider vinegar, drunk daily and in combination with good hydration and some dietary changes, can help the body to detox naturally, kill off the yeast and make it harder for overgrowths to occur again in the future. In short, it is a simple method to not only get rid of yeast infections but to improve the body’s overall health.
