Dr. Joseph Mercola - Take Control of Your Health

The Dangerous Relationship Between Salmonella and Yeast in Your Gut

21 Oct 2025

Description

Salmonella causes over 1.35 million infections annually in the U.S., and when paired with Candida yeast in your gut, infections become more aggressive and harder to control Research from the University of Illinois Chicago showed Candida releases arginine when triggered by Salmonella, fueling bacterial invasion while suppressing your immune system's natural defense signals Candida colonization is common, found in over 60% of healthy people, but when combined with antibiotics or poor gut health, it worsens Salmonella's spread to vital organs Other studies reveal Salmonella sometimes suppresses Candida, blocking its filament growth and weakening biofilms, proving gut microbes don't always cooperate — they also compete for survival You can defend yourself by limiting antibiotics, avoiding seed oils, restoring nutrient balance with lysine-rich foods, supporting digestion, and strengthening circadian rhythms through sunlight and sleep
