Your gut is naturally lined with mucus that lubricates and protects it. Even a diet rich in fermented foods like Kombucha, sauerkraut, and pickles can feed Candida. High alcohol intake, oral contraceptives, and a number of other factors including a high-stress lifestyle can also cause Candidiasis. However, the yeast population can get out of hand if a round of antibiotics kills too many of the friendly bacteria or you have a diet high in refined carbohydrates and sugar (which feed the Candida.) The healthy or ‘good’ bacteria in your gut typically keep your Candida levels in check. Candidiasis, or yeast overgrowth, is very common and causes Candida overgrowth symptoms such as bloating, constipation, rashes, fungal infections, fatigue, brain fog, and mood swings. When this balance is tipped between Candida and other microorganisms, Candida overgrowth occurs.
When one species gets out of balance in your rainforest, everything gets out of control. In fact, I like to think of your microbiome as a rainforest, with many different species living together in harmony. Ideally, your good bacteria, bad bacteria, and Candida (among other forms of yeast, viruses, and even mites) that make up your gut microbiome exist in a balanced state. It is a part of your body’s normal microflora - the microorganisms that live in a delicate balance in your mouth, throat, gut, vagina in women, and on your skin. Its job is to aid with digestion and nutrient absorption. You might be wondering, “What is Candida?” Candida is a fungus, a form of yeast that lives in your mouth and intestines in small amounts.

I’ve literally seen thousands of patients with digestive issues, fatigue, brain fog, recurring fungal infections, skin problems, mood swings, and more, all caused by Candida overgrowth.
Candida overgrowth is one of the most common conditions I saw in my clinic, especially among my autoimmune patients.
