My best advice to combat cravings, bloating and brain fog! If you’ve overindulged, Candida albicans is a yeast organism always present in your GI tract, and when it’s in check, it’s a normal part of a balanced microbiome. When your gut is also full of natural, beneficial bacteria, these organisms feed on the yeast, keeping levels low. However, when the inner ecology of your GI tract gets out of balance, this normally non-invasive yeast can quickly become a highly aggressive fungus and bore into the gastrointestinal lining.
