In this video I will share how to treat your jock itch naturally without breaking your pocket. I have seen 1000s of male patients with jock itch and this is the exact same advise I give to all of them. Post your comments and question in the comment box below. The product I talk about in the video is CanxidaRemove and you can get it at https://www.canxidaremove.com/

Although it is usually the ladies who are accused of having a loving of chocolate, in my experience the gentlemen are equally as fond of the sweet stuff – and I don’t just mean chocolate. Many men are equally as fond of cookies, sweets, ice-cream, cakes and desserts. Tie that in with their taste for not only beer, but also other forms of alcohol, and you have a Candida problem in the making!
In fact in some cases the fact that many men are already driven by cravings for sweet stuff is a strong indication that they already have a Candida overgrowth. My father spent many years and an awful lot of money trying to find out the cause of his distressing digestive issues before he discovered the work of Dr William Crook who finally unveiled the mystery for him. Meanwhile it wasn’t just him who had to suffer from his offensive gas, stomach rumbling, constant belching and rather odorous feet – we all had to live with it!
Yet despite the fact that many men do suffer from Candida it is often perceived as being a disease only women get. Usually this is related to the notoriety of vaginal thrush, rather than it being founded in any kind of fact, but it does mean that many men out there have health issues which simply are not being looked in to.
In reality men can be just as susceptible to Candida as women and there are many other reasons, in addition to the sweetie fest, why this might be so. For instance, just as many men use antibiotics as women and this particular drug is now renown for initiating yeast overgrowth. Men too often have sexual relations without going through an adequate personal hygiene regimen, tending only to think of, if anything, the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. They also might work in jobs which require wearing heavy, dirty overalls for long periods and are certainly more inclined to put themselves, and their bodies, through extremes of physical exercise without giving themselves enough recovery time.
One of the main areas of concern but which receives little attention when it comes to Candida is that of over-exertion or stress. When it comes to thinking about stress most people automatically consider the mental or emotional kind, but the body can also be subject to physical stresses which need to be resolved with just as much consideration as psychological stress.
For example, when we over exert our body, we lower our levels of immunity and increase the chance of fatigue of our adrenal glands. Because yeast infections, and particularly Candida albicans, is opportunistic then when our immunity is low this often leaves us open to overgrowth. Adrenal fatigue also runs hand in hand with low cortisol levels, which results in a cyclical effect, reducing the efficiency of the immune system and allowing the Candida to overgrow and cause even more problems.
Men, particularly those who participate in regular physical exertion, simply must appreciate that they need to give their bodies time to recover before moving on to the next gym session or marathon trek. Once you know you have reached burn-out point then you have gone too far and are leaving your body open to disease that it simply isn’t strong enough to fight.
Sweeties, Snacking and Junk Food
Most men raid the refrigerator because, like it or not, they are ‘snackers.’ Yet late night raids or out-in-the-open binges can lead to problems a lot more severe than simply increasing your waistline. Junk food and particularly that which has sat around overnight and then been quickly and inadequately heated in the microwave, carries loads of spores which simply transfer straight into your digestive system. And, although it isn’t just junk foods which are the problem, snacking foods tend to be loaded with sugars of all varieties, which junk foods obviously are. Molds and sugars are Candida favorites too, so the more you feed down to them the happy they are to grow and colonize your digestive system.
Have you noticed that although you always had a sweet tooth and snacking habits, the problem is getting worse? Could your urges now be described as cravings? If so it is more than likely that you already have a yeast infection which will soon, if it hasn’t already, present itself as uncomfortable digestive disturbances, or even externally as Athlete’s Foot or Jock Itch.
If you haven’t already cut back on the sweets, alcohol, snacks and junk food then start right now. One of the best ways to rid yourself of Candida and improve your health generally is to begin starving those yeasts into submission. Then make sure you wash and dry your genital region properly on a regular basis, particularly if your occupation entails you wearing coveralls for long periods. If you participate in sports, particularly those which utilize a lot of energy and push you to burn-out, then remember that burn-out is your body telling you that you’ve gone too far. Take time out to rest and recover and when you go back to your exercise regimen then make sure it is one designed to keep you healthy rather than make you ill. After all, that is generally speaking the whole point of exercising in the first place! Canxida Remove is recommended for those with moderate to severe cases.
Unfortunately many of the problems associated with yeast infections are somewhat cyclical and here I will identify two issues that cause many men problems, and which also at first glance, can result in a condition which appears distinct from yeast infection.
I have found that many men who suffer from prostate problems are subsequently identified as also suffering from a yeast infection. Although these may appear to be conditions which are entirely unrelated this is not in fact true. In men, any yeast which is collected by the penis can travel up the urethra and settle in the prostate which resides at the top. This may result in the man not developing significant symptoms of a yeast infection, but he can show signs of prostatitis. Obviously, if this condition is treated without the possibility of a yeast infection being investigated, then the prostatitis will recur. And, again obviously, this is a condition which is very worrying to a lot of men.
Unfortunately the way in which a man can contract a yeast infection is if his partner has it. And, if the partner is not treated for a yeast infection, then the man will be reinfected when having sexual intercourse. Here we end up with a course of events which is cyclical because for the man it results in constant recurring prostatitis – and for which the true source of the problem, his partner’s infection – remains forever untreated.
Because the vagina is a perfect environment for yeast organisms, then if you are a man suffering from prostate problems, or indeed if you are a woman whose partner is suffering from prostate problems, then one avenue to investigate is the possibility that the female in the relationship may have a yeast infection. By clearing up this infection and also any which has been transferred to the male, the prostate problems may well also diminish.
The other issue which causes cyclical prostatitis relates to that of alcohol. In my experience when it comes to men, beer is the major causation. Often men who drink beer will find they suffer not only from recurring prostatitis but also from jock itch.
Although there has been much debate about the relationship between alcohol and yeast infections, over the years I have seen many cases of both yeast infections and prostatitis clear up once a patient has ceased, or at least substantially reduced, beer intake. Beer is more conducive to yeast infections because of the amount of yeast, sugar and alcohol left in the beverage compared to other drinks, although in women wine seems to be compatible to encouraging yeast overgrowth.
Despite the fact that some recent research studies conclude that alcohol intake and prostatitis are not linked, there have been substantial studies that indirectly lead to an alternative conclusion. This relates to the number of people who have a high alcohol intake suffering from gut dysbiosis (alteration of gut microflora) and leaky gut syndrome. Since gut dysbiosis often involves Candida overgrowth and this yeast infection can travel up the urethra to affect the prostate, then I think this certainly puts the no link research into question. Certainly though it would appear that there is a link between prostate cancer and alcohol intake, so, yet again, it seems that studies are not as conclusive as they may currently appear to be. Personally I believe the relationship between alcohol, dysbiosis, yeast infections and prostate problems in general is worthy of a lot more investigation. There are far too many contradictions and indirect links to simply confine this situation to a back drawer.
However the route to better health in this situation seems clear and certainly in my experience I have seen many patients experience significant improvements in prostate problems if this course of action is taken and it is certainly better than consistently treating yeast and/or prostate problems which will only recur if the source, alcohol, is still ingested:
If you or your partner have a substantial alcohol intake and either suffers from symptoms of yeast overgrowth or prostatitis, then both should look at following this plan:
Cut down on the alcohol and, if possible, cut it out completely. Then both should get either checked out for a yeast infection or simply assume this could be the cause and move on to remedying the problem naturally. This is basically achieved by making amendments to diet and lifestyle. If the health of both improve, and, of course this should happen because even taking the issue of alcohol consumption in isolation many negatives will be resolved, then often the prostatitis issues will also be remedied.
There is now a lot of emerging research linking alcohol consumption not only to many digestive dysfunctions including various forms of dysbiosis, but also to Candida directly.
Fermented Yeasts
One of the major issues which we are currently aware of when it comes to Candida infections is that of the amount of live yeasts in beer. Although most alcoholic drinks are fermented products, meaning most of the yeast is converted to alcohol, the case is not the same with beer. Both wines and spirits have most of the yeast brewed out of them and some are distilled so any remaining live yeasts are killed, but often with beer much of the live yeast remains. This means that every time you have a drink of beer live yeasts are being added to your digestive tract which already brimming with them – in short, you are adding fuel to the fire.
So, when it comes to alcohol in general and beer in particular there are several problems. One of the biggest relates to alcohol being broken down in the liver by a specific enzyme which converts it into something called acetaldehyde. This is then broken down further by another enzyme into acetate and this is then used to fuel cells. Sounds good, yes? The problem arises though when too much alcohol is introduced to the liver and there are not enough enzymes to convert it. Then you have surplus acetaldehyde knocking around, which is definitely not a good thing. This is because excess acetaldehyde actually contributes to damaging the tight junctions of the intestinal wall – the situation which results in leaky gut syndrome – and there are plenty of studies around to prove it like this one here https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2614138/.
There is also evidence that Candida too produces acetaldehyde. So now you have a double whammy when it comes to this compound alone because not only does the liver have to deal with the excess produced by Candida overgrowth but also from the alcohol which has been introduced.
So, when it comes to alcohol and beer in general, you have several problems, that of yeasts, acetaldehyde and Candida acetaldehyde if you are unlucky enough to have an accompanying overgrowth. But when it comes to beer the problem is even worse. As I explained above beer is full of live yeasts, and, unless it has been pasteurized, there are no beers free of yeasts and this contributes to the excess already in the gut. But beer is also full of sugars, which feeds the yeasts.
You got it. Beer is a fun-fest for Candida! It’s basically an open invitation to the overgrowth to start dominating your digestive tract.
Prostate Problems?
Yet many men suffer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP) or prostititis, which, when alcohol consumption and beer in particular is stopped, then reverses. Of course is it always necessary to establish why your prostate is causing you discomfort, but in many cases of BHP test results will come back negative for any findings even when the patient is still suffering symptoms.
In this case it is often best to restrict alcohol and beer consumption, to zero if possible, and simply assess the situation for yourself.
Although often you will see conflicting advice regarding beer consumption and prostate function, there can be little doubt now that alcohol in general results in gut dysbiosis (most alcoholics have this condition in research studies) and we know that it can cause leaky gut. We also know that live yeasts are prevalent in many alcoholic drinks and most certainly in beers and in larger quantities and the effects can be more damaging, when it comes to dysbiosis, than other types of alcohol.
If you are a beer drinker and are suffering prostate problems and these are also appearing in combination with the more general indicators of Candida overgrowth such as bloating, indigestion, excessive gas and flatulence, then there is an obvious decision to be made. Will cutting out the beer improve your symptoms?
Women and Beer
Of course women too can be beer drinkers, and, although the prostate problem is gender specific, if you are a female drinker and are suffering any symptoms of Candida overgrowth, the outline above gives you a very good indication of how much damage you are initially causing to your digestive tract. Of course, these problems extend outside of the intestine but if leaky gut develops then your problems could clearly become systemic.
No matter how much or how little you drink, there is one strong indicator that your body is unable to cope with the amount of acetaldehyde you are producing – a hangover. If you suffer from hangovers, either as a regular or casual drinker, then make a mental note that a hangover is the metabolic response to excess acetaldehyde and already your digestive tract could be damaged. Although it might not be written in stone anywhere, a hangover can be a very good reminder that you are injuring your body, and not simply for the duration of the hangover symptoms, but quite possibly permanently.
