Some of my clients with Candida are also trying to lose weight at the same time. Part of their weight loss plan involves exercise. Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, but I still like to ask my clients a few questions before they start physical training,
My question to anyone with gut problems who has decided to start exercising is this: Do have you enough energy to exercise and what’s your recovery like? You don’t want to be a person with some type of fatigue, especially adrenal fatigue or thyroid issue, trying to exercise with a Candida issue.
I recommend doing some blood work before you start a new exercise regime. Get a complete blood count, thyroid testing, liver and kidney function tests. It’s also important to have a physical exam that includes a blood pressure check.
If you want to be very thorough, I suggest doing a comprehensive stool analysis that examines three samples. The stool analysis results should comment on the levels of Candida, beneficial bacteria, harmful bacteria, and parasites. parasitology.

If your physical exam and blood work aren’t concerning and if you are sleeping well and have good energy levels, I would give exercise a green light. If you’re health isn’t quite good enough to start an exercise routine, see a healthcare professional who can address your issues. Once your health has improved and you’re given the okay, gradually increasing your activity level makes sense.
Remember exercise can be a great help with stress. Reducing your stress can improve the function of your digestive and immune systems. In that way, exercise can actually contribute to your Candida treatment plan.
