Candida: Overgrowth
built 791 days ago
Candida is now in an "overgrowth" status. It slows down neurotransmitters to the brain, causing the person affected to have reduced concentration, to be forgetful and confused, irritable, and to sleep poorly. Other problems experienced include fatigue, low stamina, low libido, weight gain or loss, aching legs or other muscles (Candida overgrowth can affect calcium/phosphorus/magnesium balance), aggravation of PMS, menopausal or gynecology syndrome, and a general malaise of the immune system. Craving sugar (a major Candida food source) is ... a common symptom.

Candida overgrowth can produce a large number of symptoms. Among them are headaches, migraines, bad breath and rectal itching. Mood swings, canker sores and persistent heartburn. Muscle and joint pain, numbness and tingling sensations in the face or extremities.

Based on their clinical experience and on very preliminary research, several doctors have suggested that a number of dietary factors may promote the overgrowth of Candida. Dried fruits, which are high in sugar, have been blamed for contributing to promotion of Candida overgrowth. Sugars avoidance is a standard recommendation on any anti-candidal diet.
