Intestinal Candidiasis (IC) refers to an overgrowth of the Candida yeast genus in the small and large intestines. Its presence in the gut is normal, but it can be overabundant in certain populations like premature infants and the immunocompromised. Probiotics and antifungal drugs may prevent IC.
Intestinal Candidiasis falls under the Gut Health category.
