A naturally balanced pH stops the itch.

Microscopic fungi or yeast occur naturally in the body and are present on all surfaces of the human body - inside and out. One of the most well known fungal growths in the body is Candida albicans.

Under normal circumstances, this fungus lives in balance with the other healthy bacteria in the body and causes no harm. However, Candida can be harmful if found in other parts of your body such as the vagina, groin, ears, under nails, in skin folds, teeth cavities and in the digestive tract.

A balanced pH level is the key to preventing Candida infections! The body has a healthy ph (alkaline or acidity level) of 6.4 if measuring urine or saliva. Deviation from this natural reading will cause upset in the body and create conditions for fungi, such as yeast (Candida), to thrive.

The natural ability to keep conditions stable also depends greatly on the immune system, which helps to regulate the acid balance in the body. A healthy diet is the best way to help the immune system keep a healthy balance.

The natural way

There are many natural ways to support the immune system, such as diet, adequate sleep, moderate exercise and relaxation. pH levels can also be kept at appropriate levels by avoiding excess grains, sugar and most processed foods in the diet. Raw vegetables should also be included in a healthy eating plan.

However, today's modern lifestyle is filled with fast food, pollution and stress! Over time, this can sometimes cause health problems and affect the regulation mechanisms of the body - especially the body's natural ability to keep Candida levels in check. In extreme cases, this can negatively affect normal body functions and create disturbances in delicate body systems.

Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the immune system, and thus support a healthy balance of pH in the body.
