Hey, Eric Bakker from New Zealand, the naturopath. Thanks for coming back, checking out my videos. I've got a question here from somebody. My question is if you're trying to get rid of candida, is it okay to try and exercise for weight loss at the same time? It is. Of course it is. There's no reason why you can't do that. But my question would be have you got 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. So blood work may be good to do first, blood pressure check, do a complete blood count, look at thyroid markers, look at kidney and liver function. Just go to your doctor and ask for a CBC, like an overall blood test. Or just get a physical done to make sure that everything's in good shape. If you really want the icing on the cake, I would say do a comprehensive stool analysis, three samples including parasitology. 

So you get that checked out first, do the physical exam, do the stool test. You've got really good basic information to work on and that's going to really help accelerate your weight loss too and keep you in great shape. Plus then you've also got baseline tests for future reference. So that's my response to that one. But if you've had good energy levels and you're sleeping well, there's no reason why you can't exercise if you've got candida. Thanks for the question.
