I too have a hard time trying to figure out which is causing the most symptoms.... I remember when I first treated candida, I was able to figure that out after a few weeks of a strict diet. Many symptoms were lessened and I felt a great improvement.

However, I was left with some stubborn symptoms that I now attribute to mainly mercury. Which was the ongoing tendency to isolate myself (shyness), difficulty with body temperature (going cold easily with blue nails). Unable to lose enough weight. I would remain somehow "solid" in appearance, though I lost a bit from the candida diet, so I was certainly better. Dilated pupils remained. And sometimes tremors/salivating etc.

Candida is more a symptom of something else going on in the body, that is creating a yeast imbalance. But it can become a condition/illness. But there is always a cause of candida. Whether it's chemical/metal toxicity, viral, hidden infection, a combination or whatever disturbance is going on in the body that is also suppressing the immune system and poisoning the body.

But treating yeast problems can help ALOT with symptoms and lessen toxicity and take a load of the immunity/gut/liver. Improving physical and mental symptoms. But it will not likely cure it, unless the problem creating candida in the first place has been addressed.

Though many of the symptoms maybe yeast related, the cause is another story.
