Candida is allegedly a culprit in this area thriving on refined sugar consumption. And there’s a market for the supplements that allegedly help to restore the correct balance of gut bacteria. Who knows if the supplements do anything, but I imagine eliminating the refined sugars might go a long way to normalizing one’s ‘ecosystem’.
Tough to do with any processed food. Sugar (one form or another) is in purt'near everything.
(It is the sugar bugs that rule the world! (8^P)
It's true we ingest way too much sugar, and I can't vouch for the supplements. Not much of a pill fan, myself.
What I do know is that active probiotics DO work.
For about a year, I've been drinking something called keifer, which is a milk-based probiotic. It's a miracle worker for the digestive system, IMO.
It makes sense, too. Not only are our foodstuffs over processed and over sterilized, but antibiotics are standard treatment for just about everything.
What a lot of people don't think about is that antibiotics kill ALL bacteria...not just the 'bad' ones. Which leaves our bodies depleted of the microbes we desperately need to function properly.
I dislike yogurt but capsule pro biotics have helped me
never heard of them until doctor recommended trying
Raw milk—we don’t “got milk”
Candida is a terrible issue for me. I keep it in check with a real food diet and tons of probiotics.
