Do B Vitamins Feed Candida

The answer is yes. I have struggled with and treated patients for candida for many years and have concluded that individuals taking higher than 100% RDA of B vitamins do worse than those that take roughly 100% RDA. It is not always candida that is the problem either. Many types of fungus, bacteria, and viruses also seem to thrive on "excess" B vitamins. I have found that 100% RDA gives the body what it needs while not promoting the 'dysbiosis'.(A term for the wrong balance of microbes in the GI tract)
I wish I had more Science behind this but the tongue in Chinese medicine reveals the overgrowth of these microbes by the coating. If you struggle with candida or fungal overgrowth, take a B complex and watch that coating on your tongue in the morning before brushing become thicker.
Individuals with dysbiosis and who take no B vitamins will develop B vitamin deficiencies and will become lethargic. In Chinese medicine, the tongue with teeth mark impressions in it, is a sign of poor absorption and will often will be improved by taking B vitamins.
I hope that this info will help some people that are searching for answers. I am a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist who specializes in food sensitivities , dysbiosis and immune health.
