Yes, we have two or three species of fungal microorganisms that live in our

intestinal tract, and in the mucuous membranes elsewhere in our body (mouth,

eyes, throat, genitourinary region). Candida albicans, which is the species

most everyone refers to as yeast, is the most prevelent.

This is one of the reasons why tests can be so limited and not really helpful

when it comes to our own bodies dealing with high yeast levels. It is difficult

to standardize the numbers to indicate that you do have a problem. So much

depends on how your own body's immune system is dealing with the toxins released

by a larger-than-usual number of yeast throughout the body. Some people can deal

with a high amount of yeast before symptoms develop; others react sooner.

Symptoms are generally a better indicator than a test. Dealing with high yeast

levels comes with dealing with digestive disorders and gut dysbiosis.

Candida can develop rhizomes which " break " through the intestinal walls and

emerge into the blood stream. This is part of why our immune systems become

overloaded and our bodies develop related symptoms.

didn't seem to think this was a huge deal, but I DO! Those of you who have had

yeast issues, did you ever have your blood looked at? If there is yeast in my

blood, that cannot be good, right? So, I am thinking of requesting some of the

stool testing to be done by my GI to see if any yeast are present there. Any

helpful hints on how to get the dr to go along with this? My recent adventures

in dr visits have not yielded anything positive...
