Hi,

candida can be a sign of high blood sugars.  Have you been monitoring your blood sugars?  fasting should be < 95 and 2 hours after eating should be < 120.  If you are higher than this you need to talk to your doctor about getting on some meds.  If you are overweight work on getting it down to normal.  Eat lower carb and avoid all sweets.  Try to exercise at least 30 minutes a day.
