In the US alone around 80 million people suffer from some form of yeast related problem such as Candida and of these around 70% of them are women.

Candida, when allowed to get out of control, can produce 79 distinct toxins, which are released into the body. This cocktail of toxins is what is thought to be the cause of many of the symptoms of a candida infection, including migraines and fatigue as well as diarrhea or constipation, occassionally both.

One of the toxins is acetaldehyde, which as well as causing a number of health issues, is the toxin that is partly responsible for the symptoms of an alcohol hang-over.

In most cases when people are experiencing a migraine will have throbbing pain on one side of their head and which if left to its own devices can spread to both sides.

Generally around about 60% of all people who suffer from migraines will experience some symptoms around about 24 hours prior to the actual migraine commencing. Often their moods will change, they will begin to yawn repetitively, they will become thirsty but they will find that they retain fluids for longer.

In some cases they may suffer with a stiff neck, fatigue, as well as becoming irritable and in more severe cases they may have a feeling of numbness or tingling sensation down one side of their body.

One way of helping ease the migraine attacks, and often other candida symptoms, is to drink plenty of water. This will help to remove the toxins more quickly from your body, and also keep you hydrated (dehydration can cause headaches and migraines). Therefore drinking 8 - 10 glasses of water will likely help the symptoms.

By the time someone is suffering from migraines with a candida infection, then the infection has started to become a major concern. Other symptoms may or may not appear, but the need to gain control of the infection is important, not to just remove the migraines, but to also stop further problems from arising.

If a candida infection is allowed to become systemic then there are many complications that can occur, and if left undiagnosed and untreated it can even lead to death.

Therefore, it is important if you are suffering from a migraine and you suspect that you may have a candida infection, that you adopt a suitable treatment plan.

It is important to realize that as the candida is destroyed it will release toxins into the body. So, if the infection is systemic then the treatment must be controlled and carried out at as natural a pace as possible so that the body can effectively eliminate the toxins from the body.

However, a candida treatment plan is only half the answer. Anyone with candida may have reoccurring episodes if they cannot work out the original cause of the problem, whether it was lifestyle choices they made, the diet they followed, a condition or illness they had or medication they where taking.

So, remove the problems related with candida and migraine symptoms will soon follow (assuming that is what is causing you migraines). Remember to consult your doctor for a formal diagnosis.
