We were just talkin about weight loss here: //www.curezone.org/forums/am.asp?i=2277668

Candida destroys the adrenal glands and the adrenals regulate blood sugar. If blood Sugar stays unstable for a long time you become insulin resistant( weight loss).

The adrenals also produce sex hormones(muscle/weight) and candida destroys that too.

Candida wrecks our livers( protein digestion) and delays IGF-1 growth factors.

candida messes up our guts... so we don't absorb food anymore(weight loss).

Candida keeps the body in a catabolic state instead of anabolic state so yea; candida causes weight loss and muscle loss unfortunately.

Yes, candida has some to do with weight.

If your body is detoxing candida, it shows up often on the tongue (white tongue, gooky mouth). parasite dieoff will do it too.

Candida creates gook-colonies in the gut (in which many other bacteria and viruses thrive), when those let go or are flushed out, a lot of weight is removed from where hyphal-form candida clings to the gut walls. These sort of colonies are called bioilms, mucosal plaque, some folk believe that is what you get out sometimes as ropeworms.

In heavily obese folk candida can show itself as colonies that have leaked out of the gut together with food particle and established themselves inbetween the cell walls. This is one of the phenomenons active in loosing 'water weight'.
