Guest guest Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 First thing I kept getting was urinary tract / bladder infections and piles. I felt tired all the time, brain fog is also related to this, as well as a funny phenomenen whereby I would have a reaction when I ate sugar/starch. I would almost get drunk, as if I'd been drinking booze. I'd feel wobbly, and would actually start slurring. This aparently is because of the alcohols released by the bugs as they feed off the sugar - your system becomes a fermenting wine vat and the fumes go to your head..I think I remember reading it was ethanol that is produced. Dizziness, a strong craving for sugar/carbs/ starches, especially late afternoon. Aches and pains everywhere, digestive disorders, heartburn, mucus in stools, funny smelling stools ( sorry !), nightmares, insomnia, so tired that I was in bed by 7 pm every night....depression, weepiness, a general feeling of bing unwell, or not quite yourself.......it's a long list, many of the symptoms being similar to implant symptoms and a HOST of other illnesses, which is what makes it so elusive to diagnose. During dark field they found tons of it in my blood, and the Candida bugs " invited " a lot of other viral and fungal strains into my body, which show up as long, stringy things floating in your saliva/blood. My blood cells were all clumped together in strings ISO swiming around happily, so less oxygen could attach to them, compounding the problem. Use the saliva test discussed here before to check yourself for candida, also stick out your tongue first thing am and see if you spot white or yellowish furry looking stuff on the back of it.....if you are prone to other fungal infections like Atlete's foot, you may well have Candida too. I never had vaginal or oral thrush that I was aware of, yet had Candida..only found out about the furry tongue thing afterwards...does this help ?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 Deb, An internet search will bring up tons of info on candida infections and alternative treatments. Here is a very comprehensive site as an example, below. There are several ways to treat candida, and if you go to your health food store, you will be dizzy just from the selection of products available to take to treat it. But the most important thing you can do is take complete control of your diet and start to starve them, and then take things to kill them off....garlic is one of the most potent (raw, uncooked garlic in doses up to 12 cloves daily). Other supplements include grapefruit seed extract, coconut oil, olive leaf extract, caprylic acid, and oregano oil. When they start to die off, they release toxins, so you will feel terrible. But it is all part of the process of healing. Candida is one of the most stubborn infections you can deal with. It takes months of work to eradicate it. Good luck! http://www.positivehealth.com/permit/Articles/Nutrition/candida.htm ----- Original Message -----From: debsings04 <debsings04@...>< >Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 4:12 AMSubject: how do you know when you have candidas?> Hey girls,>> how do know when you have candidas?
