Eating Garlic for Yeast Infections



Sometimes, the solution to a problem is so simple that we tend to overlook it. This is often the case whenever we have health problems and far too many of us simply run out to the drugstore and try to find a pharmaceutical cure. Although this may make us feel better for a little while, one of the main problems that these pharmaceutical methods have is that they don't really get to the root of the problem. Instead of solving what is going wrong with our body, they really only help to cover over the symptoms so that we tend to ignore what is actually going on.
This is the case whenever it comes to yeast infections. It is so easy to go out and buy some cream at the drugstore which will take care of that yeast infection that most people just tend to do that. Unfortunately, it does little for us and it may actually have an adverse side effect where each successive yeast infection becomes stronger, eventually resulting in a super infection which is impossible to treat. It's really a shame because it is possible for you to fight off a yeast infection with some very common foods, such as garlic.
People have been eating garlic for thousands of years for its healing properties. Although some people tend to avoid garlic and because of the social effects that it may have on them, it can actually be quite good for you. Eating a clove of garlic every day, especially one that is all natural can have amazing effects on your health that are very easy for you to identify. It may also help to bring your body into a balance for it is able to fight off the yeast on it's own, simply because yeast hates garlic and cannot reside in the same area with it.
If you are dealing with a vaginal yeast infection, you may actually be able to give yourself a little bit of immediate relief by inserting a garlic tab directly into the vagina. You would need to make sure that it is all natural because you would not want to irritate this sensitive area with chemicals. Most people experience immediate relief from the itching and burning of a yeast infection whenever they do this. Over the course of time, it also helps to remove the yeast infection from our body naturally.

Garlic for Yeast Infections...?

I have read a lot of testimonials about using garlic to cure a yeast infection... well i am simply not comfortable with inserting a clove of garlic in my glory hole for a few reasons... but I would be willing to eat the garlic. Does this work just as well? and how should i eat it or prepare it?
Thanks!

I have read that too, but also would never stick a veggie in my vagina, for any reason. Boy that could make oral sex fun. Anyway, why don't you just get some Monistat or Vagisil and treat the traditional way? If you want to eat the garlic, eat it raw, I guess.

good luck..

asides from garlic..I heard eating lots of yoghurt (plain) will keep yeast infections to a stand still. Or someone told he inserting a yoghurt laced tampon in for 1 hr or 2 may help speed up healing. I didnt try it..but that's what some women suggest. Or drinking NON sugar cranberry juice will definately help.
