Although there is no “single factor” responsible for turning this naturally occurring organism into an agent of disease, the Candida species is notorious for being an “opportunistic” pathogen: Candida incites disease in hosts whose immune system (local or systemic) has been impaired, damaged, or is innately dysfunctional.

Example indications or symptoms in pets may include: hot spots, rashes under the legs, chronic uncontrollable itching, reoccurring ear or urinary infections, repeated staph infections, skin blackening, acne problems, etc. All these components (and others) exist in a proper natural balance (making up the Flora) until something happens to upset that balance.ĬANDIDA-YEAST TROUBLES MAY BEGIN. Ironically, Candida actually provides growth factors for Lactobacillus.
Candida is usually kept “in check” by the Lactobacillus bacteria, partially by the production of lactic acid. In a healthy pet (or person), the large intestine hosts a “balance” of beneficial bacteria, including Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus Bifidus, along with potentially harmful Candida (yeast-type fungus & pathogen). For ideal health, these bacterial ‘colonies’ form a protective ‘coating’ for intestinal tissue – making up what is known as the “Flora”, which is a necessary component to maintain proper digestion and to help build immunities for good health. Simply put, there are about 500 different known microorganisms residing in the digestive tract (mostly ‘bacteria’). Before plunging into the use of our nutritionally-focused program for yeast problems, you may desire at least a basic understanding of the subject.
