You may find the odd healthcare professional that knows about it and will prescribe something for it. For those of you that are not familiar with Candida, this is what it is and it may be what s bothering you. Candida albicans is a natural inhabitant, yeast that lives in your colon.

I must admit that when I first heard this concept, I thought it was kind of silly. However, sometimes desperation will make us re-think silly things; at least it did in my case.
