Antibiotics anyone? Our good bacteria cannot live through many courses of antibiotics. This very often leads to candida, or yeast overgrowth in the bowels. Candida eats sugars and carbohydrates. When it takes root in your gut, it can cause you to want to eat more carbs! When candida eats and grows in your body, it off-gasses toxins. These toxins get absorbed, make us tired and use up valuable resources to be detoxed out of the body.
Unhealthy bacteria or yeast = unhealthy gut = excess toxins in blood = toxic liver burden = TIRED!
We can take good bacteria or probiotics yes, however, without knowing which organisms have taken root, you will most likely eventually end up with the same issues again. There are twenty six different strains of candida and each one is killed by a different herb or set of herbs. There are hundreds of bad bacteria we are exposed to daily!
