Thrush in men - a disease that is rare, nevertheless, requires effort to get rid of it. Thrush significantly limits the viability of a man and requires treatment. The danger is that you can infect a partner.

In fact, the changes that need to be made to their habitual diet, in order to follow a diet that reduces the manifestation of thrush, is surprisingly small. The principles to be followed to achieve this goal are simple for both understanding and fulfillment.

To optimize power, you need to enter all the changes in the food gradually. You need to eat as much fruit and vegetables as possible. It is worth starting to prepare according to new recipes. It is recommended to recognize the composition of the products before they are included in the diet. It is also important to count how much food is consumed. Harmful as malnutrition, and overeating. The diet should be enough fiber. Fat products are better to find a replacement.

The main principle remains the gradualness of all changes. To complicate and produce changes need to gradually. Since most of our habits were acquired throughout life, it is impossible to get rid of them immediately. The argument that "love of fat", inherent in our food culture, is explained by the pleasant taste and aroma of fatty dishes. But in fact it is nothing more than a habit. Most of us grew up on fast food, on food, which can be intercepted on the go - chips, fried potatoes, pies, drinks.

Most doctors and researchers agree: if the changes are made gradually, then there are more chances that they will firmly enter the life of a person. In order to start eating healthier foods, you need to gradually introduce a small number of new salads into the diet. It is necessary to add new products to soups, second courses, salads, and even to fried foods. At the same time, the usual dishes and foods can be gradually reduced by the number and frequency of consumption. Within a few months the family will get used to new dishes and products. Once you get used to such a diet, you need to gradually increase the number of such products and the frequency of their use.

What is not possible for thrush men?

With thrush, you can not eat fatty, sharp, smoked dishes.

Alcohol for thrush in men

Alcohol can be consumed in moderation. It is impossible to abuse in any case. It is not recommended to drink wine, beer and other low-alcohol foods, and beverages that result from fermentation. This is due to the fact that the products formed in these products act as a nutrient medium that promotes the development and further reproduction of microorganisms. In addition, these substances trigger the processes of fermentation in the body, which also contributes to the activation of pathogenic microflora, which is the causative agent of thrush.

It is recommended to use strong drinks, such as cognac, vodka, tinctures (especially on plant extracts). Positively affects the treatment of absinthe, alcohol. This is due to the fact that alcoholic beverages (with a strength of over 40 degrees) have antibacterial agents, killing pathogenic microorganisms and normalizing the normal microflora.

Alcohol should be excluded only when taking antibiotics or treating with antifungal agents, since alcohol in combination with these drugs causes intoxication of the body.
