2 questions for Bee

[Guest guest]

Hi Bee,

Please tell me why tapering off hydrogen peroxide is necesssary. I

understand why it is advisable when starting to minimize die-off, but

I don't know why one can't quit it cold turkey at the maximum intake

level.

Also, when you mentioned before that you could only eat 9 types of

food when you had candida, was it because they contained small

amounts of carbohydrates? I find that when I eat broccoli (73% carb),

cauliflower (63% carb), or green beans (80% carb -- these percentages

are from nutritiondata.com) my oral thrush becomes worse. Basically,

the only veggies I can eat for dinner are lettuce or other leafy

greens for minimal night-time thrush symptoms. Small amounts of

broccoli don't bother me so much if I eat it for breakfast, but I

wonder if I cut out these veggies completely, I would be rid of

candida more quickly. Needless to say, with a diet already so

restricted, cutting these veggies out all together would be a

disappointment.

Thank you for your time.

Kathleen

+++Hi Kathleen. Usually you would taper off any treatments, since

the body has gotten " used to " the higher level, and they need to be

gradually decreased it at the same rate it was increased. I don't

know exactly why, but I do know that if a person is on high levels of

vitamin C for cancer, if they suddenly stop it, their symptoms return

with a vengence (this was documents by Dr. Linus ing during his

vitamin C experiments).

+++You could try going off cold turkey and see what happens.

+++The 9 foods I could eat were very low in carbs (except for the

tomatoes, which is a puzzle), and also low in toxins. I could only

eat lamb and eggs for protein.

+++Most people who first start on the diet will have oral thrush get

worse for awhile, which isn't a bad thing, and eventually it clears

up again.

+++It isn't possible to cure candida more quickly than your immune

system is able to be be built up, which is mainly done with " proper

nutrients " (diet+supplements), and by eliminating toxins. It takes

time for the body to heal itself naturally.

The best to you, Bee
