Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Joanne, when I was fighting Candida at it's worst, I found adding acidophillus would make my constipation worse, rather than better. When I gave my body a break, it was a bit better. I've always had issues with constipation, before implants even, only when I was on highish doses of thryoid meds did it get better, but I had to stop those for other reasons. So far the Epsom salts is the nly thing helping me but I can't take it forever...will see after explant what/how with thryoid meds...

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Hi, Primal Defense has done wonders for me. It is the best probiotics. It is from the soil. You start with one a day and then add one every day until you get up to 6. Then you can taper down to two a day. I was VERY CONSTIPATED when I got really sick and now I go at least twice a day. This stuff is GREAT. You can actually get it on E-bay and through Swansons vitamin catalogue for the cheapest price. Try it!!! Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Joanne, I don't know if my constipation is from Candida or not. How can I tell? Do regular doctors do tests for Candida or do you have to go to a Naturopath? Pamjoanneinpain <joanneinpain@...> wrote: hi All, I wish I had more energy to respond to postings.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Joanne, you could very well be constipated from narcotics, pain meds and anesthesia. That is very common, esp. if you are taking morphine and other pain meds. Very common. It may be candidas, but most people after surgery esp. with pain meds etc. have slowed bowel action.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 I will check on the bottle tonight but I don't think so. It is microorganisms from the soil not the usual ones that are in regular acidophilus. I'll see what other ingredients are in it.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 -Joanne I am so sorry that you are experiencing the tiredness and depression. I can soooo sympathize. Recently I have decided to do enemas, and coffee enemas. And juicing. Well it was the same old thing. First feel better, than later worse. Now just worse. Last night I had a killer headache and nausea and it was back today. Why? Because of the coffee enema. I also get very depressed when I detox. It is such a vicious cycle!! I am pretty good until I mess with something to feel better. But I feel I can't improve my health until I take these steps and then wham! I feel terrible. I just can't stand these severe headaches--anything but that. So then I back off. Any suggestions from anyone out there?
