WHAT IS A FUNGAL INFECTION?
A fungal infection occurs when there is excessive growth of bacteria, usually in the skin. Fungal infections may also occur in the internal digestive system due to bacteria build-up. Skin related fungal conditions are fuelled by keratin, the protein that makes up your skin, hair, and nails. Internal fungal conditions can stem from a variety of factors such as overconsumption of alcohol, carbohydrates, sugar, or fermented foods; oral contraceptives; excessive stress; antibiotics.
The following are common fungal infections:
- Athlete’s foot
- Fungal nail infection
- Ringworm on the groin, body, or scalp
- Thrush
- Yeast infections
- Candida overgrowth

WHAT IS CANDIDA?
Candida is a fungus that is naturally found in your mouth and throughout the digestive system. It’s main purpose is to aid with digestion and nutrient absorption. A small amount of candida in your system is healthy—candida is only harmful when there is an overgrowth in your system. If the healthy bacteria in your system is unable to control the candida levels, you will experience candida overgrowth, which may appear in the following symptoms:
- Chronic fatigue & low energy levels
- Digestive issues (bloating, constipation, diarrhea)
- Autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, psoriasis)
- Skin problems (eczema, hives, rashes)
- Mood swings or depression
- Lack of focus or difficulty concentrating
- Allergies
- Sugar and carbohydrate cravings
FUNGAL INFECTION TREATMENT AND FERMENTED FOODS
Fungal infections and candida overgrowth can be easily managed and treated with the right tools. The Body Genius team has helped many clients successfully overcome fungal infections and eliminate candida overgrowth through a number of different methods.
First, we must test for fungal infections to determine what is causing your symptoms. The most common types of tests are blood test, stool test, and saliva test. Through these tests we are able to analyse your bacteria levels and provide you with a diagnosis and treatment solution.
Treatment differs slightly depending on your condition but most involve the following steps:
- Remove excess bad bacteria or candida overgrowth. This is usually done via herbal medicine.
- Eliminate inflammatory foods from your diet that encourage candida overgrowth, such as sugars, alcohol, and simple carbohydrates.
- Replenish and rebuild healthy bacteria with probiotics and fermented foods.
