Yeast Infection and Fibromyalgia
Is There A Connection?
Fibromyalgia Remedies delves into the question…
Is there a correlation between yeast overgrowth, also called candida, and fibromyalgia? Well, many researchers believe there is, but don’t expect your local doctor to jump on the no yeast allergy, or yeast overgrowth band wagon.
However, they will be agree that a diet high in refined sugars, fructose, and simple carbohydrates it not healthy for anyone.
Doctors are not your only choice when you suffer from fibromyalgia, and you may find that Naturopaths are can be very helpful in treating fibromyalgia. They are well educated on the correlation of yeast overgrowth, and how common it is in the general population. This goes beyond vaginal yeast infection, we are talking about an intestinal yeast overgrowth to the point of causing debilitating physical neurological, abdominal, and systemic symptoms.
Candida overgrowth usually begins in the digestive track, and then spreads to other areas of your body. If you have a yeast infection, it’s a pretty sure sign that candida has already spread throughout your body.

Yeast overload taxes your immune system, your neurological system, and your brain. Having a yeast allergy is it possible? It is believed that everyone in some form or another suffers from a yeast allergy.
From a yeast overgrowth angle, you have to see that yeast loves sugar, and thrives to the point of excess, which in turn is eating away at your immune system, and neurological systems.
You only have to look at diabetics to see the destruction that high levels of sugar or glucose are capable of producing, and most of these fall into the catagory of yeast infection symptoms.
Insulin Spikes
Insulin spikes occur when you eat refined sugars, bread, sugary cereals, candy, etc. The spikes in insulin creates surges of sugar that produce inflammation across many organs, and systems in your body. The honest truth is that our bodies were not made to eat the levels of glucose we consume on a regular basis.
High glucose levels fuel inflammation, so doctors prescribe steroids or prednisone for fibromyalgia suffers, and create even more problems with the side effects associated with them. So if you want to exasperate your fibromyalgia symptoms even further, go ahead and eat sugar, and encourage your internal yeast production.
IF you are suffering from IBS – Irritable Bowel Syndrome you should take note of the fact that yeast overgrowth can interfere with the absorption of nutrients in the gut, or stomach. Our immunity is tied to the absorption of foods, and if you have an overgrowth of intestinal yeast it is going to affect how you feel, and how well you can fight off illness, and deal with stress.
An over growth of yeast can cause an inflammatory reaction in your intestinal track, and this in turn can create not only the symptoms of constipation and diarrhea, but it has a far more ominous result which is malabsorption syndromes. When the intestines are overrun with yeast, it is makes it very difficult for you to absorb the vitamins and minerals and fats your body needs.
This can set up a chain reaction where you become nutritionally deficient affecting hormones, immunity, neurological response and more.
Our bodies were not designed for the types of high fat, and high sugar that we consume daily. The rise in diabetes, IBS, ADD, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, arthritis, and other chronic conditions many times can be controlled by dietary changes.
Bottom line is that yeast overgrowth is real, and it can cause many problems. It is the cause of Fibromyalgia no one can say that for certain. However, following a yeast free diet, or at least cutting out the refined sugars, high fructose items, and simple carbohydrates can make a world of difference to anyone, even if they do not suffer from fibromyalgia.
