The HCG diet program has many great results such as immense weight loss, increased metabolism and higher energy levels. However, another positive side effect is the control of candida yeast overgrowth in the body.

Candida grows and occurs naturally in the body, often without any harmful results. However, candida overgrowth is quite common and can affect different parts of the body. Yeast infections in and on the body can cause discomfort, embarrassment and serious long-term problems if not addressed right away. The overgrowth also causes a decrease of the naturally occurring HCG in your body. However, by partaking in the HCG diet, you reintroduce the helpful HCG while diminishing yeast overgrowth.

Causes

The overgrowth of candida yeast in the body can be caused by taking a long course of prescribed antibiotics. The reason for this is that the antibiotics do not make the distinction between good and bad bacteria in the body, and will kill off the healthy bacteria in the gut. This healthy bacteria is what helps keep the yeast in the body at a low and controlled level. You can also trigger the problem by eating certain foods and having unbalanced enzymes in the digestive tract.

Side Effects

Yeast overgrowth is very common today. According to various sources, over 80% of the U.S. population are experiencing some degree of it. When you have an overgrowth of candida yeast in the body, you can experience many different, disagreeable symptoms due to the discomfort of the problem combined with lowered HCG levels in the body.  These side effects can make it difficult to maintain any sort of diet plan or even try to live a healthy life in general.  These symptoms can include:

• Fatigue
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Poor Digestion
• Mood Swings
• Hunger Cravings

Controlling Candida

By partaking in the HCG diet plan, you are helping to reduce the overgrowth of yeast by keeping your HCG levels at an adequate level. This helps to rebalance your body while helping boost the good microflora in your digestive track. Plus, the HCG diet requires you to eat very healthy foods while limiting starchy and yeast filled foods in the body. Additionally, the HCG drops will help boost serotonin in levels which will make you feel happier and more optimistic – exactly what you need to help keep your diet on track. With the HCG diet program, you’ll be able to keep candida yeast overgrowth at bay while living a much healthier and happier life overall.
