Candida develops naturally in the vagina of about 50% of women without causing any symptoms.
Any change in the natural balance in the vagina leads to an overgrowth of Candida and this causes the appearance of vaginal fungal symptoms.
The change can be due to taking antibiotics or hormonal change, such as the one that occurs during pregnancy.
Nutrition
The candida mushroom "loves" sugars and carbohydrates, so it is recommended to adhere to a diet that prevents the fungus culture in the vagina, ie a diet low in sugars, simple carbohydrates, and yeast (such as sugar and white flour, alcohol).
In recent years, the "Candida diet" has developed, which includes building a customized nutritional menu to remove the factors that create fertile ground for the development of the fungus.
The process of dietary change should be accompanied by a professional and qualified caregiver, such as a clinical nutritionist.
Coconut Oil
A good example of this is lauric acid, a saturated fatty acid that has extensive antifungal effects that can be found in various plants.
Coconut oil contains almost 50% lauric acid, making it one of the richest nutritional sources in it, and it is very rare to find such high amounts in other foods.
Lauric acid is very effective against Candida, so coconut oil may well have a similar effect.
