Candida hypersensitivity is a pseudoscientific syndrome promoted by William G. Crook, M.D.[1] It is spuriously claimed that chronic yeast infections are responsible for many common disorders and non-specific symptoms including fatigue, weight gain, constipation, dizziness, muscle and joint pain, asthma, and others.[2]
