Problems With Yeast Infections and Lupus Or Psoriatic Arthritis - Stay From Sugary Foods


Someone I know always had problems with yeast infections (and she has lupus). Now, she is perimenopausal and all the hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings are awful. Her gynecologist prescribed the estrogen patch and she has the worst yeast infection she has ever had. She was prescribed diflucan, and it still isn't gone completely. She knows about the bad foods, probiotics, and helpful herbs and she has been doing everything she can to get this under control. Insomnia and lupus is difficult to deal with on a daily basis, but this infection is not tolerable at all.

My sibling has psoriatic arthritis, which is very similar to lupus. But, doctors have told me that almost all people with chronic diseases have high candida and bacteria levels. They also said that we mostly all have hyperventilation problems, too. It means that we do not breathe correctly and get dizzy very quickly when exercising. We are supposed to breathe from our stomach instead from our chest, but that is another story anyway.

He has tried these anti-candida herbs/supplements for several years, which doesn't seem to really help but only make my symptoms worse. You are probably just like him. If you eat a lot of sugary foods, you feel so severely tired. He feels drunk and so tired whenever he consumes too much yeast, sugar, or carbs. He also talks loud like a drunk.

The things that work for him are: staying away from sugary foods, eating less, and eating more vegetables. If you stick with that, then you will have enough energy to do your things. It is very hard to resist eating those yummy tasting foods that bad for us sometimes, but you got to try to stick with it. We also have a liver that is working overtime to try to cleanse our body. Our immune system disorder puts more stress on the liver, so eating the dark leafy vegetables helps to clean out the liver better and give you more energy. Eating good foods and eating less is very important for us.
