What is Candida? Is it bad? Why say 'Good Bye"?
Candida is a bacteria that naturally occurs in the intestinal tract. In small naturally occurring quantities it is quite harmless. However, when it grows rampantly out of control it takes over our digestive flora and inhibits the absorption of nutrients and proteins from our foods and makes it harder to digest fats. In some cases we can only absorb 50% of the nutrients from what is being put into our bodies.
This does two things.
1) It leads our bodies to feel we need to ingest more food, typically the things that bring on more candida, thus gaining weight and
2) leads to nutritional deficiencies.
It becomes a never ending cycle that we need to end.
Research has shown that more than 80% of the US population has a problem with candida.
