People eat more sugar than they realize, mostly from “healthy” sources like fruit. 

Unfortunately, sugars unknowingly feed yeast and unfriendly bacteria in their gut. Diet included copious amounts of these “healthy” sugars, mostly from fruit that contained higher amounts of fructose. Guess what candida loves besides regular sugar? Yup, fructose.

Fruits contain various amounts of two simple sugars, glucose and fructose. While pretty much all your cells can utilize glucose as fuel, only your liver can metabolize fructose. This poses a major problem when it comes to your metabolism.

Large amounts of this sugar—yes, even from “healthy” fruit— get stored as unsightly fat in the middle and result in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a growing epidemic.

Research also shows that fructose is lipogenic and behaves more like a fat than a carbohydrate in the body. That includes the usual suspects like soda, which is riddled with high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) consisting of 55% fructose, but also fruit juices and sweeteners. 

Agave, which has been marketed as a “healthy” alternative sweetener, is actually worse than HFCS, having anywhere from 55—97% fructose content.
Excessive fructose also creates advanced glycation end-products , which trigger oxidative damage, inflammation, and lots of other health-wrecking chaos that lead to cellular aging, as the name implies.
The most drastic consequences of having too much fructose in your diet is insulin resistance, where your cells can’t “hear” the call of this sugar-storing hormone; and leptin resistance, where your brain doesn’t get this hormone’s message to stop eating before you reach for seconds and thirds.
Your gut bacteria—especially the bad guys—also love fructose, gobbling it up and triggering bad bacterial overgrowth. 

A healthy gut flora that's high in friendly bacteria is essential for overall health.
Here are some tips on how to improve your gut flora:
  • Eat more prebiotic foods --- Eat plenty of foods rich in prebiotic fibers, such as onions, oats and bananas.
  • Consume more probiotics --  Probiotics may increase the abundance of healthy gut bacteria. Foods, such as Kefir & kimchi  are all excellent sources. 

  • Make time for quality sleep
  • Reduce stress --  Regular exercise and deep breathing exercises may help reduce your stress levels

SUMMARY


Your gut bacteria play an important role in your overall health, and disruption to the gut flora has been linked to a number of health problems.
