Coating on your tongue that's white? New rash that keeps showing up...itchy in the wrong places? You may have Candida.
Candida albicans is a yeast, a type of fungus which grows within the mouth, intestines, and skin. In small amounts, this fungus is harmless to our body and leads to no symptoms.

A variety of factors contribute to Candida overgrowth including regular antibiotic use, a diet high in sugar and refined carbohydrates, immune weakness, diabetes and stress.
