Content: Briefly, the symptoms of Candidiasis, as represented by this counterculture, include but are not limited to: Chronic fatigue, especially after eating
Depression
Gastrointestinal problems such as: bloating, gas, intestinal cramps, chronic diarrhea, constipation, or heartburn
Rectal itching
Allergies ( including both food and airborne )
Lowered immunity and susceptibility to infection
Severe premenstrual syndrome
Impotence
Memory loss, severe mood swings, and feeling mentally "disturbed" or ”spaced out”
Brain fog, difficulty concentrating
Recurrent fungal infections such as "jock itch", athlete's foot, or ringworm and all types of skin problems
Extreme sensitivity to chemicals, perfumes, smoke, or other odors
Recurrent vaginal or urinary infections
Prostatitis
A feeling of being light headed or drunk after minimal wine, beer, or certain foods
These symptoms may worsen in moldy places such as basements or in damp climates, and after eating or drinking yeast or foods containing sugar. Candidiasis is now attributed to be a significant cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) (also called Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome -- CFIDS), sudden childhood autism, and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD or ADHD). Even though evidence is building to support these claims, few MD's consider the possibility. However, in the 70's and 80's when this work first started there were no medical tests that were reliable in demonstrating an occult, low-grade yeast infection of the intestines. IMPORTANT That has changed. There are now a number of tests and diagnostic laboratories that can provide definitive proof of an infection of this type. See our page FUNGAL AND YEAST LAB TESTS for a comprehensive review of tests and labs. For further reading, refer to our page CANDIDA BOOKS for the most popular selections covering this topic.
