Hi Tina... oh, my gosh. My heart just breaks for you! To be so desparate and

not know where to turn for answers! I truly hope Bee will be able to give you

some feedback soon!

If you have read her articles, then you know on her program there are no:

grains, starches, fruit, dairy, sugar, or nuts. You mentioned foods from those

food groups that bothered you so you can feel free from them!

Bee shares about a time when she was so sensitive to foods, all she could have

was her egg drink three times/day.

You might consider reading about Bee's 9-day liquid program; it sounds like it

might be the place for you to start:

From what you've shared about your sweet 7-yo, Bee's program will be beneficial

to her, too. You can start her this weekend.

Ensure you've read Bee's articles:

I hope you find help and support here, Dear Lady.

Dear Tina,

I understand, because of my own experiences, how you are suffering, however

would you please break up your long message into questions with their story,

rather than this extremely long message?

You were emailed this Group's " Required Reading " and Rules when you joined this

group. One of the rules is to NOT post long messages since this is a very busy

group, and reading long messages on a group like this is extremely difficult.

Also my time is limited since I have 3 Groups, a website, do consultations, do

research, write articles, etc. 7 days a week.

I'm sorry to ask this, but I'm short on time again today, I'm eating my lunch

while typing, and will be busy this weekend with my daughter visiting. I rarely

take any time off from my 7 days week schedule.

I hope you understand, and thank you in advance, Bee

My mouth and gut burned when I'd drink water, any water. Still does today even.

stopped oatmeal and rice, since I began reacting badly to them, rice= severe

trying homeopathic route and some other things.

Hi Tina, you are very fortunate to have finally come to the right place! My

daughter used to suffer very severe life threatening reactions to many foods and

terrible reactions to countless others. To put this simply, this was because

some of the foods (high carbs, fruit, grains etc) were making her ill by feeding

the candida that had got competely out of control due to her severe nutritional

deficiencies and severe level of toxicity. Other foods made her ill (fish, eggs,

good fats, coco oil etc) because they were causing very strong healing

reactions. This can all seem very confusing at the beginning but you will soon

learn. It is very scary to be in the position you are in, but believe me, if you

learn as much as you can you will heal. Sorry I have no more time to help today

but do feel free to ask any questions. You can find out more about my daughter's

recovery by looking up messages 103728, 101614 and 100659. Do read through all

the success stories on Bee's amazing website too. I'm assuming that you mean

Bezodiazepine the sedative? Were you taking it for anxiety? If so, there are

many people on this group recovering from anxiety disorders(me included!)aswell

as many other mental diseases. My daughter was also suffering from

anxiety,autism, hyperactivity, psycosis, and self harming to name but a few!

Good luck and all the very best.

Hi Tina.

I feel your pain.

It is frightening when your body is not responding to anything.

I was never in quite the same place as you, but three years ago my digestion

collapsed and I also could hardly eat anything. I would get terrible

palpitations and flushes and most foods would trigger some kind of reaction.

I discovered that I was very gluten intolerant so dumped both that and diary (as

I knew I was dairy intolerant) and just existed on a handful of foods and even

then had difficulty digesting those. I lost quite a bit of weight (not a

problem as I needed to lose anyway, but not being able to eat very much wasn't

good, obviously).

Pretty much all I could eat was fish and a tiny bit of well-cooked green veg.

Carbs of any kind were a big no-no. Gradually though, with perseverance and

several set-backs I managed to introduce a few more foods. I have now been on

Bee's diet for a year and things have really started to improve especially in

the last two or three months.

Reading through your history, it seems that although you appear to have had a

fairly good diet, whenever you've had any problems you have resorted to drugs of

some kind, whether on prescription, or over the counter.

The problem as I see it is that your system is very toxic. Unfortunately, all

drugs are toxic, so all you end up doing is adding to your toxic burden. As you

are well aware, the drugs usually only end up making things worse in the long

run.

All the itching and rashes are detox symptoms. Horrible I know, but the body

has to try and rid itself of the drugs and chemicals somehow. The reactions you

appear to be getting from different natural foods, may well just be your body

using those foods as detox agents. We assume that these symtoms are bad - often

because they are very uncomfortable, but these are ways the body uses to rid

itself of unwanted stuff.

The fact that your daughter got thrush from feeding does suggest that you are

riddled with Candida, and that is undoubtedly your biggest issue.

The by-products from the fermentation of carbohydrates in your body creates

alcohols which can - in enough quantity overwhelm the liver's ability to detox

the body properly. That may be another reason why you appear to be getting

'allergic' reactions to seemingly innocuous things, if your liver can't process

them properly.

Although you seemingly have a lot of symptoms, they really are just one big

symptom - of an overwhelmingly toxic and clogged body.

The problem with things like probiotics - certainly at this stage, is that the

different bacterias react with each other causing other issues. The only way to

really deal with Candida properly is to get the body healed and back into

balance and that can only be done with good nutrition - from meat, fish,

poultry, eggs, non-starchy veg and good fats - butter, ghee, coconut oil, lard

and tallow (beef dripping) plus the basic supplements and the removal of foods

that trigger the Candida overgrowth - the starchy carbs, sugars, chemicals and

processed foods and keep the imbalance and deterioration going.

As you are also well aware, whilst antibiotics may alleviate the problems for a

brief moment, they make it all heaps worse in the long run by killing the

bacteria in the gut that help to keep the Candida under control. My digestion

was trashed due to having been given loads of antibiotics as a child -

unneccesarily - which makes me even more angry! They just tear down

(anti-biotic - anti-life) when what the body really needs to resist 'infection'

is high nutrition.

The trick is to start very slowly - first gradually removing the carbohydrates

and sugars and then slowly introduce the healing foods - you may find that you

will react to things like eggs and coconut oil so you may have to start with

just half a teaspoonful. These are healing and detox reactions - not allergies.

Make sure you read all the info in these sections so you know how to start Bee's

diet and what to expect as you go along.

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

It will be hard to start with and the reactions may be very uncomfortable, but

if you can persevere it does gradually get easier as the body starts to heal.

Bee has found that it takes, once you are on the diet and supplements fully, and

don't 'cheat', approximately one month for every year you have been sick to

heal. Hopefully that will give you some encouragement.

I really hope that you can get through this - it is very hard for you to cope

with and many of us here have been in a similar place, but have come through it

and are recovering.

Regards, Ali.

Hi Tina,

Sounds like you have put a lot of pharmaceutical drugs into your body.

You might have eaten " well " but the drugs would have had a huge impact on your

health. Pharmaceutical drugs are very damaging.

I know I ate " well " for 10 years (and I never took much in the way of

pharmaceutical drugs) and I used to get itching in my legs every night which

would stop me from sleeping as well as many other health problems.

You need to do this diet and only this diet. No more searching for a pill to

fix you. So many people want the the magical answer to a " magical " disease.

As Bee says there are no diseases just a body that is not healthy.

This diet (life long diet) works.

I don't itch anymore after 1 year on this diet.

I don't ache all over anymore.

I rarely have stomach pain anymore.

I am only at the beginning of the journey. I have a few more years to go.

And the more I do this diet the more I realise that sticking to it

is vitally important.

Listen to Bee. I have come to realise she knows a lot.
