Fungal Infections/Yeast Overgrowth

Fungal infection is a result of fungal overgrowth. Fungus thrives in warm, moist areas like armpits, under the breasts, under the belly, and around the groin area. While a fungal infection can occur from external causes like using a public shower or sleeping on sweaty sheets, it is most often a result of internal yeast (also a fungus) overgrowth.
Yeast naturally exists in the small intestines. It's primary job is to eat undigested proteins. When you have digestive problems and your food is not broken down properly, yeast begins to grow out of control. If you have itchy rashes, in the areas mentioned above, nail fungus, or thrush, then you likely have systemic yeast overgrowth.
Possible Causes
Yeast overgrowth, sleeping on dirty sheets, public showers, toilets, etc., antibiotics (kills good yeast and bacteria and allows bad yeast and bacteria to grow), diabetes (high sugar causes fungus to grow), exposure to fungal infections from others, hormonal changes, stress, poor hygiene, weak immune system, especially with HIV/AIDS, immunosuppressive medications
