Can genetics be a factor in yeast infections?
—Genetics may play a role, but gene expression can be influenced through diet and lifestyle changes, potentially reducing the impact of genetic predispositions.
How can changing my pet's diet help with yeast infections?
—Switching to a less processed diet, low in carbohydrates, can reduce inflammation and support overall health, potentially improving yeast infection symptoms.
What role does the gut microbiome play in yeast infections?
—The gut microbiome influences the immune system, and its imbalance can contribute to inflammation and immune dysregulation, potentially exacerbating yeast infections.
