Re: [Everything doTERRA] candida and auto-immune

And while candida is often promoted as a "cause" it is actually a side effect of a poor immune system and/or toxicity.  We all have candida bacteria and need it but it is only when it goes out of balance that there is a problem.

I would be quite careful in that characterization. I have an autoimmune disease called mixed connective tissue disease. This autoimmune disease includes several different diseases including lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, reynauds, scleroderma, fibromyalgia and other goodies. It is definitely not caused by Candida, and is detectable as an actual marker in the blood that is genetic. While I am sure there are many autoimmune diseases that can be attributed to Candida in terms of flareups, it is a little bit broad to say that it is caused by Candida. I have heard this many times on this list, and it always makes me a bit uncomfortable. I think we need to be kind of careful about what we attribute different diseases to. Perhaps it would be wise for us to talk about things that can contribute to a disease rather than cause diseases. Obviously this also applies to other diseases and not just autoimmune diseases. Just my two cents and worth exactly what you paid for it.

Since joining doTERRA and expanding my health horizons, I have learned that most auto-immune diseases are caused by candida over-growth.  I am wondering where I might find some research to send to my loved ones with auto-immune diseases to reinforce this knowledge? RA and Lupus in particular.  Thanks!
