Optimal Metabolism Episode 269- Is Candida Sabotaging Your Metabolism? The Truth About Gut Infections & Insulin Resistance
In this episode of Optimal Metabolism, I sit down with Dr. Michael Biamonte, founder of the Biamonte Center for Clinical Nutrition and author of The Candida Chronicles, to unpack the surprising connection between Candida overgrowth and metabolic dysfunction.
Candida is often reduced to "just a yeast infection," but Dr. Biamonte explains why chronic fungal overgrowth can disrupt insulin signaling, impair liver detoxification, drive inflammation, weaken immunity, and create the perfect storm for weight gain, fatigue, high cholesterol, and blood pressure issues.
If you've ever felt like your body is working against you, this conversation may connect the dots.
You may want to explore this deeper if you experience:
- Stubborn weight loss resistance
- Blood sugar swings or insulin resistance
- Chronic fatigue or brain fog
- Recurrent infections
- Bloating, digestive complaints, or food sensitivities
- Hormonal imbalances that don't improve with diet alone
Dr. Biamonte is offering listeners a FREE copy of The Candida Chronicles and his 5-Phase Treatment overview.
