Hey there. Eric Bakker. I'm coming back with another video. You've probably seen a line of videos on this channel. Every week, I keep trying to create five, six, eight or ten videos. They just get posted up once per week. Thanks for all the comments. 

Some people say, "Oh, my goodness. You need to post a video at this time, on this day," and all this other junk. I just make them and throw them up. I can't be bothered doing all these fancy things to them, editing and ... I'd rather just get the information out there. 

Regarding information, please subscribe. I'd like to build a big subscriber list. And, also, make sure that you're on my email list. It's very important, not because I want to sell you guys stuff, it's because I've got a lot of really cool stuff coming up, and you're going to get notified all the time, if you're on my mailing list, to see what type of lifestyle videos I'm going to create. 

You'll see I'm a man of my word. These videos are coming up, particularly next year. With my kitchen renovation complete, I'll be doing lots of stuff, and there will be some very interesting information that's going to really help you with your life, all right? So be sure to be on my list, so you get regular emails off me. 

Why am I so tired and exhausted on the candida cleanse? This is a question I hear all the time. Many people say this to me, "Oh, I'm tired all the time. I can't function properly. Why am I so tired [inaudible], all this sort of nonsense. Well, why are you tired? Figure it out. Why are you tired? You drive a car, right? Why would that car get tired? Why would it go ... 

And cough and splutter? Why would it? Well, maybe it's a problem with the gas, all right? The fuel, the fuel delivery system, there's a problem, either with the fuel going in, you're not putting enough gas in the car, or you're using cheap, crappy gas, like Mcdonalds or Kentucky Fried Chicken gas or something like that, right?

So the point I'm making here is the quality of the food you eat will make a big, big baring on the amount of power that the body can produce. So a big mistake that many candida diet people make is they go, initially, on a diet, and they make a radical change very quickly. They'll take so many things out of their diet that their system just crashes. You can't do that. You can't make really radical, very quick changes. 

For example, many people get it in their head that carbohydrates are bad when they go on the candida cleanse, so they take every form out of carb out of their diet and they'll go full blown keto, which is like the new ... It's the new craze today. Keto is the big craze. Every couple of years a new craze comes out. Keto will die a slow death in the next few years, and then probably when I'm 85 or 90 it'll pop back up again. Hey, we found this great new thing. You can lose 900 pounds in a week, just go on a keto diet.

You don't need to go on these fancy diets, you just need to be doing the same old thing steadily all along through your life without making radical changes. So, if you're going to look at your diet and take out all [inaudible], all grains, wheat, all forms of carbohydrates, your energy's going to go from hero to zero pretty quick. You're going to be tired. 

You're going to have sore, tired muscles. You're going to have low motivation. You could even have brain fog. You could be spaced out and dizzy. You could have low blood sugar, excessive yawning.

You could be so tired you can barely function, and then you'll probably put it down to candida, or parasites, or some bug, some cleansing thing. 

You don't need to take all the carbohydrates out your diet, okay? People, again, have this notion that candida feeds off just about everything you eat. Some people have said to me, "Oh, my goodness, you're recommending multivitamins," or, "Candida feeds on them." I mean, candida feeds on everything, doesn't it? 

Ice cubes, the air. Come on, you've got to stop this idea of the feed. It's not really a good idea to keep thinking like that, that every single food you eat is either feeding it or not feeding it, all right.

So you don't need to see the word carbohydrate as a dirty four letter word, because it's not. It's just your choice of carbohydrates are important, and this really is the crux of the matter when it comes to fatigue and candida, is selecting the correct carb for you. 

Not for me, but for you. You're in individual, don't forget that. Just because some keto book, or paleo book, or bodycology book, or GAPS book, or FODMAPs book says you can't eat this, and these food police are all around you, all right? And you get policed enough as it is, you don't need to be policed about carbohydrates as well. 

You determine which carbs sit well in your gut by experimentation. That's going to stop you from getting tired, and it works for a lot people that I know. Give it a go, and thanks for the question.
