Candida seems to be a biggest culprit for adrenal,thyroid,testis disorders

This note will also explain why our health gets worse every passing week

I am sure many people are aware of the feedback mechanism of hypothalamus,pituitary with adrenal,thyroid,testis glands

When thyroid hormones(T3,T4) gets low…hypothalamus senses it…secretes TRH which sends a signal to pituitary gland to secrete TSH/thyroid stimulating hormone

most of us have too much candida(toomuch bad bacteria in our gut)…
candida release “Endocrine Disruptors” which attaches themselves to the adrenal,thyroid,testis hormones making them unusable by the body.And now that the hormones have become unusable…the hypothalamus can’t sense these hormones in the blood and starts releasing more stimulating hormones…these stimulating hormones make the adrenal,thyroid,testes secrete more hormones.

This week…candida binds 10% of the hormones…so endocrine glands work 10% of the extra time
Next week…candida binds 20% of the hormones…so endocrine glands work 20% extra time
…
…
After few weeks…there is so much candida in the body…it binds almost all of the hormones as soon as they are produced…so the endocrine glands keep producing hormones all day and night…and candida does it’s job making the hormones unusable.

The glands gets tired overtime

when adrenal gland gets tired…we have adrenal fatigue
when thyroid gets tired…we have hypothyroid
when testis gets tired…it stops to produce testosterone…

I was thinking the same for a while. We have found a few sources that state candida can actually cause your receptors to not respond to some hormones (we do not respond to androgens) and would easily explain adrenal fatigue we have. Also a few people have made huge improvements on nystatin and other candida diets.

However, I am taking Iodine, thinking it would clear candida and have had zero success…

So this theory is about fin causing recidive candida infections?
How can you diagnose candida?

#4

Onlyhope - have you done any testing for Candida?

One of the Brazilian guys was diagnosed but was recently banned, I believe :laughing:

I can’t stick to the diet to save my life

I have said it many times. The month leading up to my crash, I developed profuse itching and a numbness all over my perineum, upper leg and buttock area. This coincided with high consumption of alcohol.

It’s just trail and error for me…eating antifungals&swallowing “endocrine disruptor relief” makes me feel a little better

Here’s how you can test for candida : thecandidadiet.com/testingforcandida.htm

This guy seems to have the most knowledge about candida elimination I have ever seen…

[There’s lots of information on candida on the page]

Lots of alcohol here the week before my crash. I’ve read a few other stories of guys who went to bed drunk (while on fin) and crashed the next day.

#7

I was drinking quite a bit more then I had usually done in the past when I crashed. I always that had an affect.
