Chronic Candidiasis is a condition wherein there is an overgrowth of Candida Albicans in the gastrointestinal tract. These fungi are usually benign but it is the actual cause of Chronic Candidiasis.
This condition is caused by any of the following:
Antibiotics Usage

These antibiotics are usually taken whenever you have sore-throat, ear infection and even sinus infection. Being under medication with antibiotic can greatly affect the intestines. Antibiotics can take out good bacteria, and when good bacteria are lower, chances are yeast will take over inside the body.
Stress
If you are feeling stressed out whether emotionally or physically, then your immune system will greatly be affected by it.
