Struggling to lose weight no matter what you try? These 6 hidden gut infections could be the
real reason—here’s how to fight back and finally see results!” After years of helping people with
gut and weight issues, I’ve seen that chronic viral and fungal infections can sabotage your
metabolism and cravings. Infection #1 – Candida Overgrowth: Candida makes you crave
sugar and carbs, disrupts your metabolism, and stores more fat. Infection #2 – Epstein-Barr
Virus (EBV): Chronic EBV slows your thyroid and metabolism, making weight loss harder.
Infection #3 – Cytomegalovirus (CMV): CMV can trigger chronic inflammation and insulin
resistance. Infection #4 – Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV): HSV can disrupt your gut-brain axis,
leading to cravings and slow metabolism. Infection #5 – Enteroviruses: These can cause gut
inflammation and hormone imbalances that make you gain weight. Infection 6 – H. pylori:
This bacteria disrupts stomach acid and digestion, leading to bloating and weight gain. When
you address these infections, many people finally lose weight, have fewer cravings, and feel
more energetic. Eat more fiber, fermented foods, and antiviral/antifungal foods like garlic, ginger,
and coconut oil. Work with a practitioner for targeted support. Which infection do you think is
holding you back? Comment ‘weight’ if you want more info on gut-based weight loss!
