What is a candida cleanse diet and what does it do?

Some complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) practitioners blame common symptoms such as fatigue, headache and poor memory on overgrowth of the fungus-like organism Candida albicans in the intestines, sometimes called "yeast syndrome."

To cure the syndrome, they recommend a candida cleanse diet. The diet eliminates sugar, white flour, yeast and cheese, based on the theory that these foods promote candida overgrowth.

Stopping the growth of yeast in the GI (gastrointestinal tract), is the main benefit of a candida cleanse diet.

It's considered normal to find candida in the human gut (gastrointestinal tract), but an overgrowth of candida can exacerbate existing gastrointestinal diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. However, there is little evidence that dietary changes can improve the effects of a yeast overgrowth if you have these conditions. Doctors usually prescribe anti-fungal medications to treat yeast overgrowth, which is diagnosed by putting a small scope into your stomach (endoscopy) and taking a tiny sample of your stomach lining (biopsy).


Unfortunately, there isn't much evidence to support the diagnosis of yeast syndrome. And there are no clinical trials that document the efficacy of a candida cleanse diet for treating any recognized medical condition.

The best systemic enzymes for arthritis

 

 

 


 

Do proteolytic enzymes help arthritis?
 
Proteolytic enzymes have many important functions in the body, including helping break down food for energy, and are found in certain foods and supplements. Studies suggest that they can improve digestion, decrease inflammation, ease arthritis pain and possibly reduce symptoms related to IBS.Systemic enzymes on the other hand are perfectly safe and free of dangerous side effects. Best of all systemic enzymes can tell the difference between the good CIC’s and the bad ones because hydrolytic enzymes are lock and key mechanisms and their "teeth" will only fit over the bad CIC’s. So instead of preventing the creation of all CIC’s, systemic enzymes just “eat” the bad ones and in so doing lower inflammation everywhere. With that, pain is lowered also.

Enzymes facilitate countless daily reactions in your body to keep you alive. They perform many functions, including helping break down food for energy. Specifically, proteolytic enzymes break down and digest protein. They’re found in the body, as well as in certain foods and dietary supplements. Proteolytic enzyme supplements have recently grown in popularity due to their many purported health benefits.
How They May Help

    Anti-inflammatory effects
    Proteolytic enzymes such as bromelain (from pineapple), papain (from papaya), trypsin, and serrapeptase can help break down protein-based complexes involved in inflammation. By modulating inflammatory pathways, they may reduce swelling and stiffness in joints.

    Pain reduction
    Some studies report that enzyme therapy can reduce pain similarly to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), but with potentially fewer gastrointestinal side effects.

    Improved circulation and healing
    Enzymes may help break down fibrin (scar-like material), improve microcirculation, and support tissue repair, which could contribute to improved joint mobility.

Evidence from Studies

    Osteoarthritis: Clinical trials on bromelain and enzyme blends (like trypsin + rutoside) have shown modest improvements in pain and function compared with placebo. Some studies suggest they may be as effective as NSAIDs for mild to moderate cases.

    Rheumatoid arthritis: Evidence is more limited, but small studies indicate possible reductions in joint swelling and pain.

    Safety: Generally well tolerated, though possible side effects include digestive upset, allergies (especially to pineapple/papaya), or interactions with blood thinners.

 
 And here we come to the only warning we have to give concerning the use of systemic enzymes - don't use the product if you are a hemophiliac or are on prescription blood thinners like Coumadin, Heparin and Plavix, without direct medical supervision. The enzymes cause the drugs to work better so there is the possibility of thinning the blood too much.
