The Yeast Connection and Women’s Health

Yeast-related problems ranging from PMS to endometriosis trouble millions of American women. But fatigue, headache, depression, and digestive and skin disorders have also been linked to an overgrowth of yeast. This comprehensive book focuses on Candida albicans - what it is, how it causes illness, and why women are affected by it more than men. The authors provide information about these problems and their management, which can help readers prepare to take control of their own bodies and keep their children healthy. This completely revised and updated edition of the best-selling guide includes illustrations, charts, the latest findings in the field and new information on such topics as prescription and nonprescription antiyeast agents, natural replacements for estrogen and progesterone, electrodiagnostic testing, and more.
