I believe fungal/yeast overgrowth is epidemic in our culture and honestly, how could it not be? We have millions of people that are deficient in good flora since the 60’s (you can thank western medicine and the soy industry for that), eating daily sugar and commercial food laden with derivatives from petroleum (over 80,000 of them that we know of to date) creating synthetic estrogenic activity that’s entering our body daily. Throw in antibiotics galore in the food supply and in scripts being written too…and you have the perfect recipe for yeast to happily grow and proliferate and because it’s a very opportunistic strain, we’re seeing it happily grow in most everyone these days that walks through our doors and in all ages. Here’s the thing…it makes the host crave more sugar to feed itself so it’s become a vicious cycle that many are caught in and feeling miserable because of it.

The thing about an overgrowth is that it has many different symptoms so here’s a few to mention…bloat, gas, brain fog, inability to focus, dandruff, eczema, psoriasis, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood swings, joint aches, digestive distress, athlete’s foot, jock itch and most itchy things, toe fungus, endometriosis, fibroids, hormonal imbalances (both female and male), blood sugar imbalances, fatty acid imbalances, kidney congestion, lymphatic congestion, headaches, asthmatic symptoms, chronic lung, ear, sinus, vaginal, urinary infections, thrush…just to name a few.

So the more each of us strive to balance our inner world, you just never know the impact it may have to help balance our outer world too. Peace on this beautiful day
