The root cause of yeast overgrowth is sugar, or anything that converts to sugar. If you are following the yeast-free eating plan, then you want to make sure you are always on the lookout for any type of sugar or hidden sugar ingredient that may be hiding in food products.
In addition to yeast overgrowth in the colon, too much sugar in your diet can cause inflammation throughout the body, causing a host of other health issues, such as obesity, joint pain, ADD/ADHD, diabetes, heart disease and affect thyroid function, to name a few.
