Abstract | Recent investigations by many workers have elucidated the mechanisms which may explain the clinical observation that an excessive intake of dietary carbohydrates can aggravate oral candidosis. These include the enhancement of growth, multiplication and adherence of Candida species to oral surfaces and the production of excessive quantities of short-chain carboxylic acids as byproducts of sugar metabolism. The resultant acidic milieu, in addition to provoking a mucosal inflammatory reaction, could also activate the highly potent phospholipases and acid proteases of Candida and suppress the growth of normal commensal flora. A unifying hypothesis encompassing the above is proposed to explain the exacerbation of mucosal candidoses observed in environments replete with carbohydrates such as glucose and sucrose. |
