Candida is a YEAST, but an alkaline environment turns on a gene that transforms it from it's normal yeast-like form to a pathogenic FUNGAL form. (EVERYONE has candida, and it is generally harmless when in a yeast-like state. When it changes into the fungal form, THATS when issues arise). The more alkaline u are, the more the candida thrive and mutate.

Different areas of our body contain different pHs. Thus, is candida migrates to an area that provides it a better environment, it may become pathogenic. For instance, we all normally have E coli in our guts, but if it migrates elsewhere, it can then give us major issues, for it is in an area it is not supposed to be and/or it mutates and/or it overgrows/overtakes the normal flora (causing dysbiosis).

I have been dealing with candida for YEARS, but never suffer from vaginal yeast infections. My symptoms are always in my gut/GI and skin (and mood and causing a cascade of other health issues due to the impact these infections have on my immunity and hormones, etc). No two candida cases are alike, thus making the treatment very difficult.
