Fungal overgrowth and infections, such as yeast infections, athlete’s foot, and thrush, are common health concerns affecting people of all ages. These infections occur when fungi, especially Candida species, multiply beyond normal levels, disrupting the body's natural microbial balance. While antifungal medications like candid b cream are often used to treat these infections, probiotics have emerged as a complementary solution. Probiotics, or "good" bacteria, can play a significant role in preventing fungal overgrowth and enhancing recovery. This article explores how probiotics work in managing fungal infections and the importance of an integrated treatment approach.
