Candida, Yeast Infection Blog 4U

Many of us with Candida also have a lot of difficulty with our eyes; some people complain of visual blurring, floaters in the eyes, sensitivity to light or even eye pain.   This is not a fun issue to deal withWhat can be the connection between these issues with the eyes and candida? 

Believe it or not, the answer relates to toxicity.  The eyes are very sensitive to the levels of toxins in the system.  Floaters, in particular, are tied to toxins in the blood stream.  Candida is an amazing creator of toxicity and the higher the toxins the more the eyes will be affected. 

One of the major issues I was struggling with before my candida cleanse was a lot of difficulty with my eyes.  I had talked to my optometrist about this, but he said that I was seeing just as well as before my eye pain and blurring had started.  It was a real mystery to him that I would have these complaints; to be honest, I think he thought that the issue was entirely in my head.  When I started the candida cleanse, the VERY FIRST SYMPTOM to get better for me was the eye pain and blurriness!  You see, when I started to kill the candida, the level of toxins in my system went down very rapidly.  The reduction of the toxins relieved the toxicity that was causing the issues with my eyes and I saw almost immediate relief.

If you are struggling with unexplainable eye problems, but your optomestrist can find no physicals problems with your eyes, it is possible that candida is putting toxins into your system that are affecting your eyes.  You can test this possibility by taking a soluble fiber (metamucil, psyllium or apple pectin) for a few days.  If you notice a lessening of your eye pain in a 3-5 day period, you are being affected by toxins and candida may be the source of the issue.

You can test if you have candida by performing a simple saliva test - http://www.stopyeast.com/saliva.html.
