Guest guest Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 I have recently come across your website and joined the group. I think what you say makes a great deal of sense and chimes with what I am already doing. However, I wanted to recommend your approach to a friend with candida but she has a very severe and serious kidney condition - spongiform kidneys - and suffers from frequent kidney stones as well as severe candida. She follows a gluten-free diet and does not eat sugar but she drinks a lot of water on medical advice and also eats very little meat as she has been told this produces stones. I have been wary of suggesting a diet high in meat when she feels she must not eat much meat. Any suggestions you can share about the appropriateness of your approach for someone with this condition would be much appreciated. Then, I will feel better about passing the details on. I hope this might at least be interesting to others. Thanks for all your hard work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the body processes protein it needs to get rid of the by-products of it, which includes uric acid that is excreted through the kidneys. But also eating fruits means there'll be a lot of uric acid too. Higher amounts of uric acid don't cause kidney stones, but doctors always treat the wrong thing. If high protein caused kidney stones I'd be loaded with them and so would many people on my program. The cause of kidney disease and stones is mineral imbalances. The body cannot absorb and utilize minerals unless there is the right combination of fats I recommend, including cod liver oil (for omega 3, vitamins A & D), vitamin E, and all of the wonderful saturated fats, i.e. butter, unrefined coconut oil, lard, etc. This combination of fats also helps pull nutrients, including minerals, from foods. All minerals need acid in order to be absorbed too, which is why I recommend calcium and magnesium citrate (citrate is acid) supplements. Of course I always say that all nutrients work together so that means protein and all of the other great nutrients on my diet and the supplements. So your friend should start on my program slowly and ensure she is taking all of the supplements, and getting all of the minerals from the sources I recommend, including good ocean sea salt, water, etc., and increase her fats without increasing protein too much, and ensure she isn't having any fruits. Here's the article she needs to make the transition: Curing Candida, How to Get Started: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/intro1.php Of course she should expect to re-experience all of her symptoms while her body is healing itself, called retracing: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal10.php All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
