Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 As long as you're looking for all you can find you might check out http://arthritisinsight.com/living/diet/index.html and particularly the two by Joe Hackett on "Joe's Story" and "Leaky Gut Syndrome". I think Joe has helped others who try this with advice, suggestions, and encouragement. I think i can find his e-mail address if you want to contact him. I'm doing OK with conventional medicines but I would probably use Joe's help if other methods failed me. Good luck and God bless. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dodie Rheumatoid Arthritis Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2004 1:25 PM Subject: Candida/Leaky Gut/RA Dear Kath and All, > From: "Kathy A" <joyfulkate60@...> > I am checking out the links you shared with interest.

I too am finding more research on all of what you wrote Kath except I've never come across anything about what you wrote in your last sentence. Does anyone else feel as though Candida and/or Leaky Gut contributes to their RA? I'm about ready to try this Threelac, although I've not ordered it yet. I've had my RA since 1981 and I'm 45. I've had multiple operations but thankfully I am not on any narcotic pain meds. I'm grateful for that.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 Dodie, Yes, my alternative doc helped me with Candida and said most folks in the south eat too much bread and most all have candida problem. The only bread I eat now is rice bread.
