Candida and Gluten Intolerance
Gluten Free Australia
> Candida and gluten
intolerance
As I look back to my teenage years and the number of
allergies and candida attacks it all starts to make sense. Candida and
Gluten Intolerance symptoms are very similar.
In forums, on my website and in passing I met a number of women
who have suffered from food allergies and well as candida so I
thought I would do some research into what the difference is and why so
many people suffer from both.
Candadiasis also known as Candida is a yeast infection, an overgrowth
of candida. The nasty thing is candida has the ability to change from a
fungal form and spore all the way through the intestinal wall into
other parts of the body. Most often people associate candida with a
thrush or vaginal yeast infection in women... but candidasis can reek
havoc on you entire body.
What comes first the
candida or the gluten?
The interesting thing about candida is that is can be cause by gluten
or food allergies weakening your immune system and vice versa
candida can weaken your immune system and cause food allergies. So how
do we know which came first? Or is it that we are doomed to eat foods
without sugars, yeasts and gluten forever?
What are symptoms the
two
have in common?
- Chronic fatigue
- Weakness
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Flu like symptoms
- Muscle and Join Aches
- Sore Throat or Glands
- numbness in hands or feet.
- Asthma
- Chronic Sinusitis
- Allergies
- Irritability
- Abdominal Pain
- Constipation or Diarrhea
- Gas
- Depression
- Grumpyness or Mood Swings
- Fungal Infections
- Yeast Rashes
- Craving Sugar and Carbs
- Reproductive Issues
...and so the list goes on.
What can help?
Pro Biotic
A pro biotic has been recognized for its ability to
help build up the
good bus in your immune system and get rid of the bad ones.
Yeast Free Diet
The best idea may be to try a yeast free diet and
see how that helps.
Sometimes by eliminating the things that cause allergies we can get a
better idea of what we can and can not tolerate.
