Yeast is not just caused by heavy metals in the body. Yeast is caused by inefficient immune functioning, whether metal related or otherwise. The body is unable to maintain a healthy balance of yeast when it is either poisoned or challenged by something else.

Yeast itself is not the enemy, it is when it gains a strong foothold because the body can no longer keep it at healthy levels.

Either from heavy metal poisoning or something else, be it virus/infection/other chemical/antibiotics etc. There are plenty of other reasons for excessive yeast overgrowth from a challenged immune system than heavy metal exposure.

I have been mercury toxic, even at my worst and NEVER had a yeast condition as badly as I have now. My problems with yeast grew FAR worse after virus/infection and possibly hidden dental infection may also be there. Again, all this is not so easily diagnosed.

Yes, heavy metals are responsible for a lot, but not always everything. They may of course set the grounds for other things to occur, but it is not always so easy to detox/heal when there are other issues going on that interfere badly with proper detoxing. Ever since I had this, I have not been able to detox properly.

There is more to this than simply heavy metals, since I can go right back to when this occured and it all followed a severe viral/bacteria infection, then later got worse following tooth extraction.

I think I have already repeated this a number of times now. I'm not disputing that I still have metals, but ever since this occured, I ceased responding to chelation properly. And ceased being able to respond to other detox regimes. Even sweating properly became more difficult. And found it hard to even get a healing crisis.

I think unless a person has gone through it, they won't usually understand. And I wouldn't have either, had this not occured. I was well on my way to fully healing from mercury toxicity and getting healthier by the year before this happened.
