Re: Re: Yeast Infections and Steam Rooms

I used to have a problem with hot showers too, when I stopped taking my

antihistimines. What my allergist told me is that I have pressure sensitve skin,

or

I'm alergic to hot showers! I asked how could this be? It's an allergy, which

is an immune problem, which is candidaisis, etc.....

After going back on antihistimines, the problem went away. So until my immune

system is back in balance, and I can go off the antihistimines, I stay on

them. I'd say that if showers/saunas don't bother you, than you're probably OK.

Sweating releases toxins, so I would think it's a good thing. I haven't heard

about molds getting into the shower water/steam, but at this point, I suppose

it's possible.

If your tap water is chlorinated ...the heat of a hot shower allows/causes

chlorine gas to be given off in small quantities...you inhale the chlorine while

standing in hot shower ..if you have an intolerance /inability to handle

chlorine which many in the candida/compromised immune system do...you will feel

like sh_t when you get out of a long hot shower...get a good filter for shower

head & you may find your problems with hot showers are solved ...

I will say some people have probs with more than just the chlorine

precipitating from hot water tho...I lived in a heavy fruit /veg growing area on

a small farm with bore water for a short while & the bore water which was only

used for washing (drinking was tank water)...affected me greatly & this was not

chlorinated but I suspect it was heavily contaminated with pesticides from all

the surrounding farm runnoff...In the city though I find a good chlorine head

filter on shower does the trick...fwiw

Bleach, then spray with colloidal silver every few days. It keeps a lot

of it down by interfering with the spores, bacteria, and viruses too on

surfaces. This residual effect is not present with bleach.

when you paint you have to use a sealer first

in my bathroom abundantly, particularly on the ceiling of my shower.

We bleach and scrub it, then it returns.
