What causes yeast in your belly?

Yeast in the belly, often referred to as an overgrowth of Candida, can be caused by factors such as a high-sugar diet, excessive antibiotic use, weakened immune function, or hormonal changes. These factors disrupt the natural balance of microorganisms in the gut, allowing yeast to proliferate. Symptoms may include bloating, gas, and digestive discomfort. Maintaining a balanced diet and gut health is key to preventing overgrowth.
