Recently I was doing some research on the cause of migraines and how they are related to the way people eat. I believe that everything in some way that effects our health is associated with the types of foods we feed our body. While I found some very interesting research on migraines I stumbled upon something else entirely. We have all heard of Candida (yeast in the body) but its not just a yeast infection. With all the antibiotics being put into our dairy and meat that we consume the natural bacteria that we have in our intestines is being killed off. These bacteria are essential for maintaining balance in the body. Because of the antibiotics we are consuming with the meat there is a buildup of candida in the gut. This buildup of yeast has recently been linked to hypoglycemia, depression, anxiety, digestion issues, bloating, and weight gain. Worst of all it prevents our kidneys from filtering out the wastes that need to be eliminated. Due to the hypoglycemia there is an increase in sugar cravings causing you to take the plunge into something full of sugar therefore sending blood sugar levels through the roof. While this research is still new to me I will continue to dig further. Some of the articles I have read suggest taking grape seed oils, olive oils, and abstaining from antibiotic filled meats by buying certified organic meats. I will continue to post as I learn more.
