Micro organism Allergen - Candida Albicans (Fungus), Serum Price
Candida is a type of naturally occurring yeast or fungus which resides in the GI tract. Normally, the body's immune system and other bacteria keep candida growth in check. Most people already have an allergy to candida, but it does not cause any health concerns unless excessive candida growth occurs. Overgrowth of candida can result when a person is taking antibiotics, has a condition that weakens their immune system, experiences chronic stress, or eats a diet high in carbohydrates.
Excessive candida growth can lead the body to develop an allergic response or worsen a pre-existing allergy. Once an allergy has developed, a person may have difficulty eating or drinking products that contain yeast. Products that often contain yeast include bread, baked goods, beer, wine, vinegar, pickled foods, soup stock, cheese, dried fruits, yogurt, soy, miso, and yogurt. Symptoms of candida allergy can develop at any time and may be difficult to diagnose because they are common to other illnesses.
An allergy to Candida Albicans (Fungus) triggers a reaction in an individual's immune system. The body views certain substances as toxic and produces IgE antibodies to these contaminants. These antibodies cause histamine to be released, which will cause the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Mold sensitization is also a major risk factor for developing upper and lower respiratory diseases such as allergic rhinitis (aka hay fever) and allergic asthma.
