Candida can cause cravings for carbohydrates and other foods that one s system is intolerant to in order to feed itself. You may think that all of this is hard to believe, but for the many people who live with yeast overgrowth day in and day out, the meddling of Candida is a painful reality. Candida releases poisons into the bloodstream furthering this disease state of Candidiasis. It is my opinion that many people have an overgrowth of Candida, but it isn t until the liver and other organs become so tired of dealing with the toxicity from the Candida albicans that overt symptoms prevail. There are at least 77 different known Candida albicans toxins.
Ethanol is one.
It is produced when yeast has lots of food. Excess ethanol can cause symptoms of alcohol intoxication. Yes, even if you do not drink alcohol, you may be struggling with an alcohol addiction. Acetaldehyde, another yeast toxin, can damage organs, disrupt fatty acid oxidation and production of collagen, cause abnormal behavior, memory loss, distorted thinking, mood swings, depression, impaired intellectual functioning and emotional disturbances. These toxins explain many of the symptoms that people get as well as the difficulties mainstream medicine has in treating Candida.
