The most revitalizing concept in the new generation is perhaps the mantra “Food is medicine”. It is clear that our favorite foods are not only the key to our nutrition but also to our health in the face of illness. Before you attempt any home remedies for yeast infections, I recommend that you consult your doctor. Some herbs can interact with medications or with other conditions, known or unknown.
Take Note
- Licorice. Make a topical licorice remedy by brewing the tea, then reducing it or grinding it into a powder. Then, add aloe to make a paste. Although this herb is most commonly used to make candy, it has surprising abilities to fight fungal infections. You can also take licorice root tablets internally. There are also many tea varieties. As yeast thrives on sugar, yeast, alcohol, it is a good idea to eliminate them from your diet. A solid strategy to treat yeast infections is to starve the yeast and take an antifungal.
- Oregano. Oregano is one of the most potent herbal remedies. It is anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal, as well as natural pain reliever. It has been used for centuries as a tea to relieve coughing and sneezing. To prevent infection, there are many products that contain this miracle herb, including capsules, sprays, sprays, and droppers.
- Rosemary. Rosemary is another natural remedy that is both antiviral, antibiotic, and antifungal. Legend has it that grave robbers used rosemary oil when people were buried with their material possessions to prevent them from getting sick while doing their nightly dirty work. Rosemary can also be easily incorporated into your diet. You can make a tea from fresh rosemary or mix it with other herbs to make a sauce or marinade.
- Garlic. Garlic is more than just a way to keep vampires away. Garlic is a powerful antifungal and the best home remedy to fight candida. There are many types of garlic available for purchase, including capsules and oils. These are made with a concentrated garlic effort.
- These remedies can be combined: fresh garlic, rosemary and oregano, tossed in a salad dressing, or used as a marinade.
