Kenny N. Diagnosed with MYI - Male Yeast Infection

I know that several members of the Upscale Workout Group have been critical of teammate Kenny N. for missing workouts due to his recently diagnosed MYI - Male Yeast Infection. Some members have even been so callous as to laugh about his condition.

Let me attempt to set the record straight:

Male yeast infection is widely misunderstood and is a much overlooked disease today. This report explains the causes, symptoms, and natural treatments without drugs and unwanted side effects. Recent advances have made it possible to eliminate yeast from the body by treating the cause and not just the very uncomfortable effects and symptoms.

Most men will go through life never knowing that they have a candida or fungal infection because it is extremely difficult to detect since men are built different than women. Women will get a vaginal infection and this is the clue that things are amiss in their body. Whereas men will have absolutely no idea they may have a male yeast infection until it creates other problems with their health and gives them a great excuse not to work-out at 6am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Men who drink excessive amounts of beer have been known to have skin yeast on their penis. They are usually totally unaware they have a male yeast infection due to the outside temperature of the skin being about 77 degrees keeping the infection dormant. But the vaginal canal, being a very inviting place for yeast to grow, can activate the infection in the woman. Before the female notices symptoms, she can give it right back to the male, and it can travel up the urethral canal settling in the prostate. It then literally becomes a ticking time bomb. I believe this to be Kenny's problem (the excessive beer drinking, not the vaginal canal transfer).

In some cases, male yeast infections will be noticeable as a penile yeast infection that has dry cracked skin although the infection can occur most anywhere on the skin. When the man has an erection, this skin can crack and be extremely painful. I believe Grape Ape mentioned that he noticed Kenny had these symptons while sitting next to him in the steam room.

All kidding aside, the cure for Kenny's ailment is simple, yet complicated. If Kenny will simply quit drinking beer, the infection will die on it's own in less than 48 hours.

Kenny, please dry out and return to boot camp! Grape Ape needs someone else to ridicule during pull-ups.
