Re: Probiotics contributing to SIBO/biofilms/feeding pathogens??

 Ok, here is quote from an informational website:

"Once the Candida has a digestive dominance it grows root like structures, Rhizoids, which penetrate the gut wall. This allows the Candida to establish colonies outside the gut. This is termed a systemic infection.

This is wrong on multiple levels.

The parasite is now able to colonise any area that the blood can reach.

Candida is not a parasite.  Again, they are using a definition very loosely.

It thrives in anaerobic conditions (low oxygen) so its first targets include joints, sinuses, muscles and other organs where oxygen levels are low (indicators are joint pain, sinus problem, aching muscles, repeat headaches, low level or migraines)."

Candida can grow and thrive regardless of the amount of oxygen present just like cancer cells.  The low oxygen environment claims are just more health myths based on the repeated spreading of misinformation that just grows and grows each time the misinformation gets repeated.

So what is described above, aka "leaky gut" and candida colonizing in other areas of the body is not a systemic infection, but needs to be categorized as CRC, correct?

CRC would be a much better description since most of the claims that were being stated in the link were incorrect to begin with.
