My poor kids are living on what ever I can cook really quickly and that doesn't smell too much, and I waited until my husband was deployed so I didn't have to hear it from him! But I agree with you. I think I am definitely going to incorporate fasting into my daily life. Even if it is just drinking a super green shake a day. I can go until mid afternoon with no hunger, then I can have some safe foods for dinner. And as for the cravings, I too have been dealing with them. my way of doing it was going to the HFS and stocking up on things I will be able to eat when I am done with this fast. my pantry is now fully loaded! so my cravings are sort of delayed satisfied. (or maybe I just satisfied my shopping craving and that did the trick for me. loll) But on another note, I am so happy that so many of you have taken to listening to my gross fast story and not E-mailed me that I am nuts. All my friends here except for one think I am loosing it mentally. And I am so tired of explaining why I am doing this. I feel so much better and you would think that would be enough for other people. Oh well... Hanida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Do not despair, everyone is different. I know there is a cure, I know because I have spoken to many people who have beat SEVERE candida. DIET. DIET. DIET! I know that with constant care. We will all beat this. I actually know someone who beat Candida on Pavvo Airola's Vegetable juice Fast. It is possible. I know someone else who closely followed Balachs book, Prescription for Nutritional Healing. I know someone else did wheatgrass and acidophilis. I know someone else who did Noni Juice and probiotics. Everyone's body is different. The thing is to find what work for you! Do not give up hope people.

Because like i said<BR> in my last post.. That is the ONLY thing that has made me feel so good and<BR> like myself again.. The only problem with this is the extreme desire to go<BR> back to normal eating.. Especially when the rest of your family is eating<BR> those delicious meals right in front of you.. I almost went insane from not<BR> eating the stuff i really wanted to..<BR> <BR> Listen..you guys have to realize that our bodies are different then others..<BR> I would tell my family that if i just drank water all day....That i feel<BR> wonderful.. And then they start with the & quot;You just CANT stop eating...Thats<BR> not healthy & quot;.. For the normal body that is correct.. But for ours it isnt..<BR> The foods we eat feed the yeast.. And causes them to release toxins in our<BR> blood...which make us feel like crapola.<BR> <BR> So then i modified the diet/fast to include Water, oat bran , and salad.<BR> With the salad, i add fresh onions , cut tomatoes, 1 or 2 tablespoons of<BR> olive oil.. And some hidden valley ranch light salad dressing..(not too much<BR> though) .. If you guys did this fast for a week you would ALL feel so<BR> great.. i'm telling you.. I never thought i could feel that way again..<BR> Also ALOT of fresh water is very important.. When i was drinking 70 ounces<BR> of water a day along with the fast i was feeling so great..<BR> <BR> Ordinary fasting does not work.. I did a stupid thing yesterday and juiced<BR> oranges and tried to start on a fast like that..... Since i hear so many<BR> good things about juice fasts.. No Good ! Candida symptoms returned<BR> immediately... It sucked. Dont do juice fasts..<BR> <BR> I've decided to go back on this fast now.. Because sugar/yeast messes with<BR> my life too much.. Makes my brain all weird and headachey..And a million<BR> other things..<BR> <BR> And dont be too strict with it.. You can sin once in a while..but just dont<BR> do it all of the time.. Make it like its a career change for yourself..<BR> Because its almost impossible to get arid of chronic candida forever.. Its<BR> probably something were going to have for a long time... Sure, it will<BR> improve and get better.. And you will notice that you could eat more sugary<BR> foods without having bad symptoms..But if you do this too much...The<BR> symptoms will come back.. Stop reading the Curing Candida books because<BR> there is no cure once its in the chronic stages.. And i wouldnt even waste<BR> my money on herbs/supplements if i were you either.. I have stopped that for<BR> the most part.. I only take certain supplements that i know could only<BR> improve my health overall.. Like borage/primrose oil , fish oil ,<BR> bioflavonoids , CoQ10 , Zinc , and a few others i cant remember at the<BR> moment.. The anti-candida supplements will only make you feel worse...And<BR> yes its called the & quot;Die off effect & quot;.. But the candida overgrowth is going to<BR> be with you forever... So the die-off effects will always be there..<BR> <BR> So the best thing to do is change your eating lifestyle.. Its a very hard<BR> thing to do in the beggining.. Especially if you dont have support from<BR> your family...or they just think your crazy for doing it.. But the reward<BR> will be your overall health.. And thats more important then having a choice<BR> of what to eat. Some people dont even have that choice.. Thats a good thing<BR> to think about while you are on the fast or diet.. Just think about all the<BR> starving people in the world. And be fortunate to have the food that you<BR> do.. It makes it easier that way..<BR> <BR> Also, unlike hanida... I was not just fasting... I made the fast my<BR> permanent diet for like 6 months.. And during that time like i said.. I felt<BR> wonderful and myself again..<BR> <BR> I would like to hear of other fasting techniques or books on fasting for<BR> people with candida if anybody knows any...<BR> <BR> mike<BR> </tt> <br> <!-- |**|begin egp html banner|**| --> <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2> <tr bgcolor=#FFFFCC> <td align=center><font size= " -1 " color=#003399><b> Sponsor</b></font></td> </tr> <tr bgcolor=#FFFFFF> <td align=center width=470><table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td align=center><font face=arial size=-2>ADVERTISEMENT</font><br><a href= " http://rd./M=245454.2994396.4323964.2848452/D=egroupweb/S=1707032\ 824:HM/A=1457554/R=0/*http://ipunda.com/clk/beibunmaisuiyuiwabei " ><img src= " http://us.a1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/a/qu/quinstreet/uofpoff_300_250_0001.gif " alt= " " width= " 300 " height= " 250 " border= " 0 " ></a></td></tr></table></td> </tr> <tr><td><img alt= " " width=1 height=1 src= " http://us.adserver./l?M=245454.2994396.4323964.2848452/D=egroupmai\ l/S=:HM/A=1457554/rand=849802027 " ></td></tr> </table> <!-- |**|end egp html banner|**| --> <br> <tt> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
