Food Sensitivities
It is often said that we are what we eat. And while that may be a bit of an oversimplification, the link between diet and gut health is well-established. For example, studies have shown that an imbalanced gut can lead to various food sensitivity issues. In particular, Candida overgrowth has been linked to gluten and dairy allergies.
An overgrowth of Candida can disrupt the gut’s delicate balance, causing inflammation and sensitivities to certain food items. If you suffer from food allergies, it may be worth considering whether you have an overgrowth of Candida in your gut. Seeking the recommendations of a physician can help determine whether food sensitivity is related to Candida overgrowth in the digestive system.
Treating Candida will not only improve your digestion but may also help reduce or eliminate your food allergies. To do this, you must remove all forms of sugar from your diet and consume probiotics daily. You may also need to take antifungal medications prescribed by your doctor.
