  • Yeast or candida infections are not typically serious to health, but more of an uncomfortable and sometimes painful irritant. This fungal infection can be treated and cured within a couple of days, but will persist for a long time if left untreated. Common symptoms of this fungal overgrowth may include: unusual discharge (thick and white), uncomfortable urination, painful intercourse, and burning and itchiness in/around vaginal area.
    Mix olive leaf extract with grapefruit seed extraction in a glass of water. It is a good tonic for this infection. Alternatively, you may apply baby oil with aloe vera and vitamin E to reduce the irritation and itching caused by the infection.

    Garlic: This herb is a foe to the yeast bacterium and has proven to treat yeast infection very quickly. Garlic can be used in an oral supplement form, or can be inserted vaginally in the form of a tablet or clove. The only issue that many women are not too fond of is the smell. If taken orally though, it can provide many health benefits other than just healing a infection.

    Vinegar is another popular home remedy for yeast infections. Vinegar contains some great antifungal powers. The best way is to fill a bathtub with warm water and add 1 cup of vinegar. Relax in the bath for 20 minutes while the vinegar is working. You get the best results with apple cider vinegar.

    Get a tampon and coat it with KY jelly. Put a few drops of tea tree oil around the tampon and apply it evenly covering the surface. Insert the tampon and let it remain overnight.

    Adding yoghurt and probiotic supplements to your diet eliminates the possibility of having this infection when you are on antibiotics treatment. These products contain good bacteria which restores the balance of bacteria that fights yeast in your body. In this way, this infection can be avoided and eliminated. Also, reducing the intake of foods with high amount of sugar is one of the yeast infection remedies. Foods containing yeast ingredients such as bread should also be reduced.

    With any of the home remedies for yeast infections there is a correlation with the treatment and natural products. Yogurt is a good example of a natural product. Yogurt has natural occurring cultures to help your body fight this condition, aid in digestion and help build immunities. Using vinegar compresses and eating garlic can also be used to fight yeast infections.
