Who Typically Develops Candida Yeast Overgrowth?
Just about anyone can fall victim to the intestinal imbalance called Candida overgrowth. Most of us at least take some part in the events that often trigger the Candida overgrowth activity. My wife, Marti, had Candida long before I did and I did not pick it up until I became quite ill with Diverticulitis. My condition lasted for over a year. During this period I became terribly weak with the autointoxication that comes from this illness and in this weakened state I also fell prey to Candida overgrowth. My immune system had been compromised and of course, the “opportunistic” yeast took over. Itchy rashes started growing on my arms and torso. My energy level just wouldn’t come up no matter what I tried to do. My gut was bloating after eating just about anything. As fungus proliferates in us it drags our entire system down. The parts of us that are weaker or compromised in some way are the first to show problems.
