A yeast infection is an opportunistic infection caused by fungus; typically Candida albicans. This problem affects women from all ages. Even babies can get a yeast infection; and, men can too. But what happens when this fungus builds up in your body, and actually causes yeast related drunkenness?
There once was a man named Charlie Swaart who lived in Arizona. For nearly a decade, he would occasionally become a sloppy, hostile, and occasionally a violent drunk; even though he hadn’t drank any alcohol. On at least one occasion, Charlie Swaart was picked up for driving drunk.
Due to the unusual circumstances surrounding this event of being pulled over for drunkenness while behind the wheel; his Arizona physician learned of a report from Japan, describing drunkenness that was actually caused by an overgrowth of Candida albicans in the digestive system. The physician put charlie on nystatin; and, he showed very good—even dramatic—improvement.
According to the late Dr. William G. Crook, M.D.:
Charlie passed away several years ago. Although I never met him, we talked on the phone on several occasions in the 1980s. We also exchanged letters. During our conversations, Charlie pointed out that yeast-induced intoxication isn’t rare. To support his point of view, he told me that he and his wife had received hundreds of telephone calls and letters from people all over the world describing yeast-related drunkenness.

Dr. Crook, in his book The Yeast Connection and the Woman, has many different accounts he relates, about people who have become intoxicated from the fungus growing inside their intestinal system.

Yeast metabolize sugar and turn it into alcohol. The type of yeast brewers use to make alcohol are not the same as the types of yeast that cause yeast infections. The yeast used for making alcohol is known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae; and, this yeast does not cause yeast infections.
Dr. William G. Crook, also relates a story about an unnamed woman, which he calls Melinda. Melinda had suffered from a compound fracture of her bones in her right leg. A day or so after she became injured, she developed a very bad infection. To treat the infection, the physicians prescribed antibiotics; which she took for the next three weeks.
Antibiotics have the unfortunate side effect of wiping out all the friendly microscopic bacteria inside a person’s body. However, antibiotics may be necessary for killing pathogenic bacteria causing a problem. As a result of there not being much competition for food and other resources in the body, Candida can grow unchecked after a person takes antibiotics for a significant period of time.
Melinda would later, after taking the antibiotics for three weeks, go out to eat with a friend. She had two big glasses of sugary cola (perfect for yeast to metabolize into alcohol) along with two eight ounce glasses of wine. When Melinda was driving home, she decided to pull her car to the side of the road to show the apartment building where another friend lived. A police officer stopped to check to ensure Melinda was not having difficulties with her car. The police officer noticed alcohol on her breath, took her to the police station, and drew Melinda’s blood. The analysis done by a toxicologist, showed Melinda’s blood alcohol level at .205.
A study, done by Drs. Stephen Daves, John Howard, and Dr. Adrian Hunnisett, found that people with yeast related health maladies, can sometimes have nutritional deficiencies which interfere with the metabolism of alcohol. The lack of metabolizing alcohol correctly, by the body, can cause there to be higher levels of alcohol in the blood.

According to a research paper published in Clinical Microbiology Reviews [12.1 (1999): 80-96], Candida species are quite ubiquitous organisms. Candida are most frequently present in the mouth; and, live in 31% to 55% of healthy people. The species that causes approximately 70% to 80% of all Candida infections is C. albicans.
The Chinese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology [2011 Jul;46(7):496] reports there appears to be a correlation between intestinal Candida infections and vaginal yeast infections. And, this provides a clue, as to why yeast infections in general, can reoccur.
This study states, in 148 cases of vaginal candida infections, 33.1% of the women were infected in both the intestines and vaginal area. The recurrence rate of yeast infections, in women with simultaneous intestinal infection, was significantly higher than for women who did not have an intestinal infection. This study concluded that vaginal yeast infections are highly associated with simultaneous intestinal Candida infection.
As research appears to indicate, systemic Candida infections can and do happen. A more systemic Candida infection may primarily get a foothold in the intestines; and cause a wide array of problems. If your yeast infections keep happening, a systemic Candida problem may be why.
One woman who suffered from a systemic Candida infection, for about 12 years, was Linda Allen. The systemic Candida infection that attacked Linda caused a wide range of health problems in addition to yeast infections. Some of these problems, Linda describes in her own words in the following quote:
To be honest, it was hard to pinpoint exactly what was wrong: I wasn’t really sick, but I wasn’t really well either. I had listlessness, fatigue, brain fog, stomach ailments, unexplained rashes, skin infections, and so on. It seemed like every day brought a new challenge.
My energy was sapped and I felt exhausted, which affected my grades and put a big dent in my social life.
Linda Allen’s symptoms included an embarrassing vaginal discharge, severe itching, and burning sensations. Her infections were difficult to deal with, and Linda’s health problems cost her financially as well. Linda states these infections of Candida can become excruciating when they happen as frequently as a menstrual period.
Yet, Linda spent a great deal of time in research; and even questioned health professionals who were kind enough to share some time with her. Linda even tried an array of purported "cures." Although it took a while, eventually, Linda put together a natural treatment plan she hoped would solve her Candida situation.
After spending about a year refining her new approach, Linda tried her system on herself. It worked amazingly well. Linda even returned to a few medical doctors to get tested for the presence of infections. These tests revealed all indicators of infection had vanished! Linda was indeed well again, after such a long, difficult journey.
Linda has since published a book detailing how to copy her success. She also includes a 12 hour yeast infection cure that can get rid of a superficial (such as a genital yeast infection or oral thrush) yeast infection in about 12 hours.
Linda’s publisher protects those who get her book with a 60 day, 100% money back guarantee.
