yeast health

Yeast health refers to the condition of this tiny fungus that naturally lives in and on our bodies, especially in the gut and on the skin. When balanced, yeast helps with digestion and immune function. However, if it grows too much, it can cause infections like athlete’s foot or yeast infections. Factors such as a healthy diet, good hygiene, and a strong immune system support yeast balance. Disruptions—like antibiotics, high sugar intake, or stress—may lead to overgrowth. Maintaining overall health and a balanced microbiome helps keep yeast levels in check, promoting well-being.
