Candidiasis is an illness which occurs when Candida Albican yeast growth becomes uncontrollable. Candida Albican is naturally found in everyone, but in controlled and confined with certain body areas. This yeast feeds on various foods and if it grows out of control the illness Candidiasis occurs. Candidiasis is controllable and curable with careful and strict treatments.
Sufferers of candida learn that sugar and carbohydrates feed yeast, therefore making their candida much harder to control and heal. Stevia does not feed yeast and is very useful in a candida diet. Always watch for the other ingredients mixed with the stevia, but stevia itself is perfectly safe. Now not only can diabetics enjoy desserts and sweets again, but with careful ingredient inspection, so can people that have tested positive for candida.
