Conventional “wisdom” still refuses to relate the topics of fungus in our bodies and the overweight/overfat condition of our society.
Western medicine has a new love affair with the prescribing of antibiotics as “the” cure-all, shotgun approach to almost any symptoms relating to an infectious issue, almost without exception bothering to test for an actual pathogen, to determine whether an antibiotic is the best approach, and then which of the myriad of antibiotics to choose from will best target that specific bacteria, if that is indeed what the infectious issue boils down to.
According to the anti-candida specialists, whom I happen to agree with on this point, if we have had even *one round* of antibiotics…no matter how short or how long the course was…we with high probability have a yeast imbalance in our gut.
From here, and coupled with the western diet, sugars, alcohol etc, it’s only a matter of time before the yeasts morph into their fungal pathogen counterpart, breach the intestinal wall, and cause problems in other parts of the body.
This is one of many reasons why I have the “health first” approach to my entire fat loss program.
People focus on the sex appeal of having a beautiful body, and we all “get” that.
But until the focus shifts into the “health-first” approach, our bodies will have to contend with pathogen and therefore toxic loads that the body will work hard to protect itself against…a primary mode of protection being that of fat accumulation on the body.
