| Candida (Yeast) and the Thyroid | |
by Mary J. Shomon
Dr. Michael McNett is President and Director of the Paragon Clinic, a Chicago multidisciplinary clinic specializing in treating fibromyalgia and muscular pain.
|
- There has been a higher incidence of candida sensitivity in Dr. McNett’s fibromyalgia/hypothyroid patients.
- Treatment for candida sensitivity frequently makes all hypothyroid symptoms disappear.
- Low thyroid causes decreased metabolism and increased pain sensation. Exactly the problems experienced by patients with fibromyalgia.
- Treatment for candida include a low-carbohydrate diet, nystatin (or other anti-fungal) and acidophilus.
- Treatment usually takes about six months.
