Microbiome Shorts: Candida and the mycobiome in health & disease

Microbiome Shorts: Candida and the mycobiome in health & disease
The mycobiome is a fascinating component of our overall microbiome, and there is still much to learn around the role that it plays, both in health, and disease. The Candida species have had a bad reputation over many years, and often got the blame for many health disorders, but often they are the symptom of a bigger problem. The host-mycobiota immune dance is such an important one, and much is still to learn about the specific mechanisms we have evolved to co- inhabit with our fungal friends 
In this short webinar we will discuss the role that that Candida species and the rest of the mycobiome plays in health and disease, and examine a few clinical considerations in support  
Objectives
  • Introduction to the concept of the mycobiome
  • How mycobiome imbalance is a sign of a bigger ecosystem imbalance – working with immunity, missing microbes, digestive capacity, mucosal health, blood glucose control
  • Lifestyle, dietary and supplemental interventions when working with Candida or fungal overgrowth
