Candida:

Just go and have a consultation with a specialist, not just maybe a dermatologist. If you can, get someone who is a vein specialist and see what they say. And they will do, if they do an ultrasound in your legs and check if the blood, seeing how the blood, it’s stopping the blood pumping through your body and your heart, and they press the area and you can see the constriction and the valves and that’s very interesting.

Some of the literature that he shows you says it’s the calves of your legs are like your second heart and you need to look after them with exercise and all this will help it recurring, but just that you have to look after this area just as much as your heart or lungs or just healthy diet and exercise. It’s a component of having a healthy lifestyle, addressing this issue.
