A member asked:
Can yeast overgrow in the body and cause things like leaky gut syndrome, oral thrush and fungal rashes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Never heard of it: Yeast in the guts is normal (also in the mouth). Overgrowth of yeast is often related to recent antibiotic usage. Leaking gut syndrome is a rare condition.
