Try these home remedies to get rid of yeast infection -
  • Tea tree oil works best against yeast infections as it has natural antiseptic properties. Massage tea tree oil gently on the affected area to get rid of yeast infection.
  • Acidophilus is a healthy bacteria resent in yoghurt or yogurt which works against yeast infection.


    Take a cotton ball and dip it in yogurt. Apply to the area with yeast infection and leave it there for an hour. Later wash it off with warm water.


     
  • Also include acidophilus in the diet by drinking at least 2 glasses of butter milk in a day or by including yoghurt or plain yogurt in your daily diet.
  • Mix equal quantities of warm water and apple cider vinegar. Apply this solution on the skin and wash it after 15-20 minutes. You can add garlic to reduce the itchiness (if any).

Though there are several home remedies for yeast infection, author finds that nothing works until one eliminates soft carbs, refined sugar, dairy from the diet.

Next crush a garlic bud in a cup and add half a cup fresh yogurt along with 1/4 tsp turmeric powder to yogurt. Mix well and take on empty stomach every morning for one month. Yeast is a very sticky culture and requires time to eliminate it from the system.
