Do you suffer from bloating, changed bowel habits, tiredness and puffiness?  This can be caused by a number of things including candida overgrowth in the gut.  The overgrowth of yeast in the gut acts very much like it does in the cooking process, fermenting sugars and producing ethanol and by-products.  This can cause a craving for sugar and starches but also a very bad reaction to them.  It tends to accompany weight gain and lethargy.   Very often, patients who present with yeast overgrowth are also gluten-intolerant and do well on a low-sugar diet.  The treatment for this is simple but can really change your life.
