Don't know about candida but leaky gut will turn you into a different person for sure. Both food cravings and personality stuff changes. On top of that over time it completely destroys your energy levels and motivation.

I've had that for about a decade. I healed it this year. Still watching it very closely, but its looking good.
Still fighting it but making some progress with fasting paired with an extremely restricted diet.
Magnesium made a huge difference for me. I wasn't able to "go" often enough, and that exacerbated the issue. Fasting and restricting veggies also helped. I also think more water and collagen help. Idk this one helps, but I try to visualize parts of my body as one of my tricks while meditating, and it feels like I move my mind into the part I'm focusing on, and I try ask my body to remember the template it grew from. That was inspired by Dr. Levin's work, where he proved that cells organise according to some template that's not stored somewhere we haven't found yet.
Omg the typos. I swear English is my first language...
Been doing collagen. Just upped magnesium now that I have diet restrictions dialed in well enough that it isn't just making things worse. Just added Glutamine and licorice which are supposed to help.
Crazy to me that leaky gut is still controversial as a diagnosis. Maybe if they tried talking to their patients.
I didn't know it was... I basically stopped talking to doctors after a stay in the hospital. They saved my life, and I'm grateful, but they didn't listen to me and some stuff happened. IMO a nutritionist with their own practice is many times more knowledgeable than any -ologist.
Licorice.... ? I wonder. About a year ago I went nuts on some licorice. That's not something I normally do.
