At some time in their life the majority of the world's population will have to deal with Candidiasis, otherwise known as a yeast infection. A lot of us picture a woman's affliction when we hear the words "yeast infection". The fact is that anybody can come down with a yeast infection whether you are young or mature, male or female, or physically fit otherwise. Hands, fingernails, toes, feet, and even around the breasts are just some of the areas people can develop yeast infections. So it's important to know exactly what a yeast infection is now that we know that anybody can be affected anywhere. A fluid in the blood called serum forming mold causes Candida albicans. Hyphe are tubes that are dispatched from the mold when they come in touch with serum. The human body breaks down when the hyphe encounter the cells by dispensing toxic fluid. The epidermis can be driven into the hyphe. This is so they can find more serum and thus produce more mold. The affliction has already happened by the time you notice an outbreak. As the fungus develops and thrives on the human body, the infection that results is known as Candidiasis. Interestingly enough, the term "yeast infection" is not an entirely accurate description of the ailment. You see, fungus can develop into either a yeast form or a mold form. Fungus that occurs by itself is called yeast. Mold happens when multiple groups of fungi cells form. A yeast infection can normally be defended by the human's natural defenses. when the yeast forms into mold that the body begins to react and you notice that something is wrong. Yeast infections are a result of a type of fungus known as Candida albicans. There are over a hundred different kinds of Candida and over 100,000 kinds of fungus, but the body usually isn't affected by most of these. A fungus has specific aspects that make it coincidental but varied from a plant or bacteria. It is almost a mixture of aspects from both plants and animals. Though it definitely resembles a plant more, it does not rely on the sun's rays for the acquisition of nutrients, or the process called photosynthesis. It acquires its nutrients from the environment around it, kind of like a parasite. Similar to a tick you might find attached to you in the forest, fungi absorbs nutrition by decomposing tissue and secreting enzymes to destroy it. Wet places, dirt, water, and decay similar to a decomposing tree stump are all places fungus naturally thrives. Just like plants and animals, fungi needs oxygen to live. If all these facts make you a little queasy, take comfort in knowing that most of the time with a little wisdom about what to do you can cure a yeast infection fairly easily using natural products. There are naturally more severe cases, but in general a yeast infection is not a serious risk to our health; it's just a real risk to our comfort. Do a little research and you should be able to cure the affliction and inhibit it more in the future.
