+++Hi Adam. I understand how upsetting this is for you and your dear

Mother. Since she has avoided fats, her cell membranes will be weak,

since they need to be constructed out of 50% saturated fat (lung

cells require 100%). Weak cells allow more toxins in, and the cells

are less able to get rid of their waste products.

+++Vitamin A is very important for eye health, and it is in cod liver

oil, but cod liver oil needs the " good " fats in order for the body to

process omega 3 and vitamins A & D in it. Ensure she is taking the

correct amount - see this:

+++It would be wise for her to do this program, which is not just for

candida, since it is an overall healing program that improves

anyone's health.

I wish you the best in helping your Mother.

Hello Adam

I am sorry to hear about what your mom is going through with macular

degeneration. I have some info about the cause which is lack of

hydrochloric acid in the stomach for digestion. Last night, Suzane

Summers was on Larry King and she has a new book called " breakthrough " .

she mentioned yesterday exactly the same thing (which I thought Larry

was skeptic about all her natural beliefs!).

Also vitamin A and good oils are extremely helpful. Some people are

using Total Ocular function which is an oral spray from Natural

Opthalmics.

Good luck and wish you and everybody in this group happy and peaceful

holiday.

love and peace

Hi Adam,

I imagine following Bee's candida program will greatly improve your

mother's ability to sleep through the night. Prior to following a

candida diet I would wake up around 2am and be unable to get back to

sleep. Now I sleep like a rock. I've had eczema my whole life and now

exhibit no symptoms.

I always felt there must be a " key " cause for my bazillion allergies and

I was right - it has been candida overgrowth all along. Sure wish I had

all the money ever spent in search of a cure!

Hi Bee,

Thanks alot for the response. I had the same feelings about this

regarding the requirement for fats, and I think I am slowly

convincing her. She's had that much brain washing from the

mainstream " diet gurus " and associated propoganda, that it's hard to

reverse such fears they propogate about fats, even though the results

of such " low fat " " no fat " diets are anything but positive. As was

done with her when she was told to avoid them. I have not seen much

good from this other than her becoming much thinner and her skin she

reckons has become drier and thinner also. She avoids sugar, which

is good, and seems to eat pretty well, but I fear she eats too many

carbs and not enough protein and animal fats and I hope to change her

mind about that.

She wants me to send her more information on the good about fats and

I am going to do just that, thanks to your information that you have

provided so unselfishly for others.

Can such a disorder be healed/reversed at all? Even somewhat? She's

reluctatant to really discuss it at this point, since it's early days

for her and they're still trying to find out what KIND of macular

degeneration she has (wet/dry). As to whether they can do treatment

on her. Regardless, I wish to send her as much good info as I can

and your website will help.

Thanks again for such help and sorry for such a delay in responding.

Merry Christmas by the way Bee, you deserve it!

Hi Haya,

Sorry for the delay in responding. Thanks for your reply to the

plight of my Mother.

I think she does get quite a bit of vitamin A (she eats liver, eggs

and has some butter and some cod liver oil), but she is sparing with

them and I reckon she's afraid to be more liberal with her animal

fats and this I think is causing more problems for her than she

realises. I know that without fats, we don't get the absorption of

these things and without ENOUGH fats, it would still be inadequate.

I think the same about the hydrochloric acid in the stomach. I

believe fats help increase that also. I really need to send her some

good animal fat information like what Bee has (Dr Weston Price etc).

I hope to totally remove her, I believe still remaining fears. It's

hard to remove them when we've had so much false and misinformation

from the so called diet gurus of today.

Happy Christmas to you and a happy new year and thanks again.

Hi Sara,

Thanks so much for your post here. This is really encouraging,

particularly as my Mother suffers so badly with insomnia. I have

TRIED to get her to STOP eating bread (wheat/gluten/yeast), but she

continues regardless.

It upsets me when I think she could oust the high carbs and start

using Bee's diet more, or at least incorporating most of it. But

it's very difficult to change a person's mind and lifestyle. I

honestly think her insomnia maybe due to candida and/or gluten

intolerance but I can't get through to her.

I find that my diet of protein and animal fats has enabled me to get

to sleep most nights and sleep solidly. And I am a typical insomniac

myself. Had trouble sleeping all my life. This diet has controlled

that for the most part. I only get the old night where I don't sleep

and funnily enough, I'm still pretty relaxed when it happens.

I'll see what i can do about convincing her to give up some of these

foods she insists on continuing to eat. If I can do it, she can!

Cheers

+++Dear Adam. I hope you are successful with winning over your

Mother to the traditional " good " fats that our ancestors lived off of

for thousands of years (before industrialization and the drug

industry).

and I am going to do just that, thanks to your information that you

+++I'm glad she is willing to learn. That's the first step Adam!

Hooray!

She's reluctatant to really discuss it at this point, since it's

early days for her and they're still trying to find out what KIND of

macular degeneration she has (wet/dry). As to whether they can do

treatment on her. Regardless, I wish to send her as much good info

as I can and your website will help.

+++I can't say for sure whether her macular degeneration will

reverse. But I do believe Dr. Weston A. Price's research, in his

book " Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, " that " proper nutrition "

changes DNA/genes, so it will " improve " her health immensely even if

it doesn't totally cure her macular degeneration. Natural healing is

the long slow way to health, and some people get impatient, and

sometimes the damage is too great.

+++You are welcome for the help. It is obvious how much you care for

your Mother. God bless you!

I hope you and your loved ones also have a Merry Christmas, and a

happy healthier (hopefully wealthier) New Year! LOL!
