+++Hi . Welcome to our group. It isn't possible for candida

to be sexually transmitted, since it occurs within each person

independent of any outside influences of any kind. That is because

candida is normal throughout the body, but due to " poor health " (a

depressed immune system) it changes from a friendly organism into an

overgrowing monster. Poor health is mainly because of lack of proper

nutrients the body needs to maintain its health, and toxins.

+++It is very common for men to get balanitis as a result of candida

overgrowth, just like women get vaginal yeast. It cannot be cured by

direct treatments, since the only cure is by building up the immune

system.

+++Most doctors are not trained in treating illness with diet or

proper nutrients, since they only get about 5-8 hours training in

medical school. They only know how to use drugs and they do not

believe the body can heal itself.

+++The reason those treatments don't work is because candida can't be

killed of with antifungals or other treatments in order to get rid of

it. It is only cured by building up the immune system with " proper

nutrients, " by eliminating foods and toxins that feed candida, and by

eliminating other toxins. Also drugs like fluconazole and Loprox are

toxic which creates more symptoms without treating the " cause " which

is a depressed immune system - natural antifungals are not toxic.

+++No, it isn't helping you to use any drugs, which are very toxic.

You can use natural treatments such as unrefined coconut oil, which

is antifungal, but it won't cure until your immune system is built up.

+++Being allergic to nuts in general doesn't mean you are allergic to

unrefined coconut oil. Also allergies to good unadulterated foods

are totally misleading and wrong because: 1) the antibody test food

allergy tests are based on are totallly false, 2) natural healing

reactions by the body are misinterpreted as allergic reactions, when

they aren't, 3) food allergy tests are not accurate because

laboratories don't use pure unadulterated foods in making up the

antigens used for testing, etc., etc. - see these articles:

Food Allergy Tests Are Questionable:

The Antibody Theory is False:

+++However some nuts are also toxic, such as peanuts which contain

mycotoxins (fungal-type toxins) and are genetically modified.

+++You need to go on the complete candida program, so please

read " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " and " Curing Candida, How

to Get Started " , which are both in the Candida/Yeast Section on my

website: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/candida/index.php

+++Then you will understand how candida works, and what you need to

do and why in order to get healthy.

Hey ,

I just wanted to comment on being 'allergic' to coconuts. My sister

became 'allergic' to all nuts (except peanuts) when she was about 29

years old. She started this diet in the summer and was deathly

afraid of taking coconut oil since she always believed she

was 'allergic' since her reaction was that her throat swells closed.

Very scary!

(I put 'allergic' in quotes because as Bee explained we are not

really allergic to good foods).

Well, I convinced her to try even just 1/8 of a teaspoon of coconut

oil and to have another adult with her to drive her to the hospital

(just in case) and she did that. It ended up that she never needed

to go to the hospital and now eats 4-5 tablespoons of coconut oil a

day and has never had any problem with 'allergies' from it - no

swelling or tightness in her throat.

So, I encourage you to start taking the coconut oil just a little at

a time and gradually increase it.

With regards to the circumcision, I agree with Bee. You need to cure

it from the inside out. Once you get the yeast under control, the

balanitis will go away. It would be like a woman cutting off her

labia to get rid of a yeast infection. It's not going to work. You

really do have to do this diet in order to heal yourself. Obviously

it's up to you, but I would just hate to see you get circumsized and

the problem doesn't go away, you know?

I wish you lots of luck.
