Yeast cells of Candida glabrata (green) adhere to Candida albicans hyphae (red) both in static culture (left, scanning electron microscopy) and under biofilm conditions of flow (right, confocal fluorescence microscopy).

Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by a yeast (a type of fungus) called Candida. Some species of Candida can cause infection in people; the most common is Candida albicans. Candida normally lives on the skin and inside the body, in places such as the mouth, throat, gut, and vagina, without causing any problems. Candida can cause infections if it grows out of control or if it enters deep into the body (for example, the bloodstream or internal organs like the kidney, heart, or brain).

One in every 3 people in the United States suffers from some form of candida. The candida packet is 486 pages and includes information regarding diets, teas, nutrients, hydrogen peroxide, pathogens to eliminate and many more approaches.

The Foundation for Alternative and Integrative Medicine (FAIM) is doing a fundraising project along with the World Research Foundation. As you know, since FAIM has the goal of offering unbiased educational information, we do not market or promote products.

FAIM has collaborated with the World Research Foundation to make a plethora of information available to our readers and in so doing you will be supporting both non-profit organizations. Through a special arrangement in this fundraising effort, half of the proceeds from the packets will come to FAIM.

The library packets from the World Research Foundation presents a multitude of options for more than 350 diseases and illnesses. The packets range from 250 to 600 pages. These are not books written by one professional, but compilations from numerous medical and health professionals, from around the world. You are receiving information that has been successful, not just random internet discussions or conjecture. Every six pages, within each packet, is from a noted professional in their particular specialty, so this would be the equivalent of someone reading between 40 and 100 books on their particular health challenge.

The goal is to help you become aware of all potential options so you are making the most informed decision for your health care.

When you purchase a packet by clicking on the link in this article, the Foundation for Alternative and Integrative Medicine will receive a portion of the cost of the packet. Learn more about this project on the World Research Foundation Health Research Packets page.
