Interesting....Soda = Yeast Infection

Warning: This is a little disgusting and graphic. In fact, it's too much information but I don't care. Please read at your own risk.

Before I was diagnosed I never had a yeast infection in my 25 years of living. It's a feat I'm insanely proud of.

Then I was diagnosed.

I started to get yeast infections, chronic yeast infections. Constant sand that got everywhere, my panties, my bed. Constant itching at all hours of the day. Constant cauliflower discharge that made it impossible to have sex at times. Add overheating and breaking out in hives during the summer, I was in hell. There was no relief.

Since I've my last hospitalization, I have yet to have a yeast infection, the horrible discharge that I would take out by digging it out of my vaginal canal with my fingers (which is not fun and sucks), or uncontrollable itching. It's been amazing. And then *boom* ephinany - what has changed since being in recovery? I don't drink soda at all anymore. The soda was causing my yeast infections.

This all makes sense. Soda raises blood sugar. Blood sugar influences every single part of the body from the brain to each individual cell. Soda causes the ph balance in the vagina to get out of control allowing yeast to breed rapidly. This hostile environment causes raging yeast infections. By not drinking Dr. Pepper, Coke, 7 up, Cherry 7 up, Cream soda, or anything else considered to be soda, I've taken yeast infections out of my life.

It's absolutely amazing considering female diabetics are proned to yeast infections especially pregnant women. Who would of thought soda could be so toxic to the body? Yay for making my quality of life better!
