Hello Maria, In Ayurveda, we recommend focusing on a Pitta and Kapha-balancing diet, emphasizing foods that are light, dry, and easy to digest. Avoid sugary, fermented, and processed foods, as they can aggravate yeast overgrowth. Incorporating anti-fungal herbs like turmeric, neem, garlic, and coconut oil into your diet can be helpful. Probiotics, such as yogurt or fermented foods, can also help restore healthy gut flora and balance the body’s microbiome. Have you had a recent vaginal swab or test to confirm the type of infection? Also, are you experiencing any other symptoms like digestive issues, fatigue, or changes in your menstrual cycle?

Hello, Have you checked your urine? Had a PV exam done by a gynaecologist? What exactly are the symptoms? Pain, burning, itching?
Recurring yeast infections can be frustrating and uncomfortable. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this condition is often rooted in imbalances within the body’s internal environment. Typically, yeast infections could be linked to an imbalance in Pitta and Kapha doshas, alongside potentially weakened digestive fire or Agni. The key is in addressing this using diet, lifestyle, and possibly suitable herbal allies.
First, start by focusing on your diet. Incorporate foods that are light and easy to digest. Favor a Pitta and Kapha pacifying diet. Eat plenty of fresh vegetables. Opt for steamed or sautéed meals rather than raw or excessively oily dishes. Bitter greens like kale or spinach can help balance Pitta. Avoid sweets, fermented products, yeasted breads, and excessively sour or salty foods, which can exacerbate Candida growth.
Stay hydrated with room-temperature or warm water, herbal teas such as ginger and turmeric, which aid digestion and help cleanse the system. Consuming half a teaspoon of trikatu powder (a blend of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper) with lukewarm water before meals can help stimulate Agni. Eating yogurt should be approached cautiously – consume it only in the day with a pinch of salt and cumin seed powder to boost digestion.
Certain Ayurvedic herbs like neem and triphala can be beneficial. Neem stands out for its antifungal properties, and it can be taken in capsule form as per the recommended dosage on the package or prescribed by an Ayurveda practitioner. Triphala, used to balance all three doshas, can aid bowel regularity and cleanse the digestive tract.
Create solid daily routine, trying to wake up and eat meals at the same time every day. This helps to regulate your internal clock, improve digestion, and balance doshas. Regular yoga sessions, focusing on practices like Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) and poses that enhance circulation, can also support balance.
Take care to wear breathable, cotton underwear to prevent moisture build up, which yeast thrives in. Furthermore, manage stress through meditation or mindfulness practices, as stress can weaken the immune system and affect body’s natural balance.
If symptoms persist, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider for guidance specific to your condition. It’s always crucial to let your healthcare provider know about all herbal supplements and treatments you pursue, particularly alongside or in place of traditional medication.
