Candida, Fungal Overgrowth, Metals in Your Body: Help for Women

When our bodies are inundated with heavy metals, our digestive systems mount drastic defensive measures, and one of those defenses against metals’ toxicity may be Candida or fungal overgrowth to absorb them, essentially trying to keep them from being absorbed by or lodged within your body’s cells.

Shocking as it sounds, studies show this to be true here, here, and here.

Toxic compounds damage and kill beneficial bacteria because they are toxic. Pesticides, herbicides, and GMOs designed to kill plant and insect microbes will do the same thing inside humans once digested. Inhaled steroids used to treat asthma have also been shown to cause oral candidiasis, which give us a clue what happens in the gut with steroid use.

People with mercury fillings are often subject to Candida outbreaks.

Amalgam dental fillings are 49.5% mercury.  Tiny particles break free as we chew, and mercury vapor is released that we then inhale and swallow. The body doesn’t just slough off the mercury. Its molecular structure is so similar to selenium, which the body needs, the cells snap it up as if it were a beneficial mineral. In the gut, mercury creates an environment that is not friendly for beneficial bacteria. An overgrowth of “bad bacteria” and Candida results.

“Some doctors specializing in Candida treatment have reported that they have discovered clinically that 98% of their patients with chronic Candida also had mercury toxicity.” – Dr. John P. Trowbridge

“Mercury vapors from dental fillings play havoc on the body through a host of means, the least of which is to feed the bacteria, fungi, and yeasts that thrive on mercury. Mercury will promote the growth of Candida; as it absorbs the mercury, it thereby protects the system to a certain extent from its toxicity – until they are saturated then they begin to re-release the mercury in organic form. Mercury-fed Candida become more and more virulent and eventually penetrates the intestinal walls and invades the cells. These fungal microorganisms become quite at home in the cell, and can easily be considered a principle characteristic of cancer.” – Dr. Mark Sircus

Estrogenic endocrine disrupters (like from BPA in plastics and printed cash register receipts) interrupt hormones in ways that Candida find beneficial. Candida likes estrogen. Too much estrogen (in women and men) helps support Candida in a variety of ways.

Toxic compounds don’t have to reach the gut to cause problems. Toxins damage our cells just like they damage microbes when we breathe toxins in or absorb the compounds through our skin. The pathogens will come to feed off of the damage. We could go on endlessly about how all of the most talked-about toxic compounds wreak havoc in the gut and the immune system, but it’s all the same. They do damage to the body and they strain the immune system which puts the body out of balance and leads to infection.

If we have a lot of damage to feed infection (or too much sugar), the infection takes over the body, and the damage its presence ensues helps to feed its own cycle.

Why Does Candida Make Us Sick? Why Is It So Resilient?

Candida mutates and develops resistance towards treatment. It has been found that Candida Albicans has the ability to rearrange its genes and adapt to many methods of eradication that may be used against it, including antifungal medications, oxidative stress, and temperature increases.

When Candida has access to the bloodstream (which happens with a leaky gut), it can colonize in the sinus cavities, glands, and organs in the body, including the skin and the brain.

Usually, what is needed is a many pronged approach to candida. Here is a very helpful addition if you are already using a protocol.

Detoxification

The same detoxification product we used to rid our bodies of dementia-causing prions almost 3 years ago, also has an affinity for heavy metals and toxins, so when you use Advanced TRS (a clinoptilolite nano-zeolite) to detox mercury or lead from the digestive system, then candida yeasts and their friends naturally begins to starve and die off.

Many TRS users are surprised at how quickly their bodies start to release candida fungal overgrowth, and now we know WHY TRS detoxes so well against it.

Why is TRS so effective against Candida?

Removing the metals from the candida/fungal biofilm strips it of it’s food, and the candida is sloughed off as a result. Overgrowth of candida biofilm does not continue to form, and over time intestinal yeast is balanced as a result.

Interestingly, it turns out refined sugar is riddled with toxic metals!

“… it was found that the refined sugar of alimentary grade contained: 57 (Copper), 34 (Zinc), 1 (Cadmium), and 6 (Lead) μg/kg of dry sugar….”

TRS is attracted to toxic metals and binding them out of the body primarily through urine and stool.
