This article will introduce you to some good stuff, just do as Jim

says and your body will feel great. I was about 3/4 way through a

month supply of Syclovir when one day I went to jail twice, the cops

thought I was high on something. I was just my normal self, being

high on life, so be careful.

More of What You Won't Read in Any Doctor's Office

The greatest health threat to human life today is not what most

people fix their attention on. Is it heart disease or cancer?

Perhaps not.

It is very likely a largely unknown or underestimated enemy, Fungus

Overgrowth in the human body! It may be the greatest threat because

most ignore it while others deny its existence. Doctors are not

required to report any fungus caused diseases or deaths. And as

you'll see, unknowingly, doctors even contribute to the dangerous

Candida overgrowth in our bodies.

This helps explain why there is no simple solution to `Chronic

Fatigue, diabetes or heart disease, cancer, Fibromyalgia, and many

more diseases.' A host of some of these disorders are called a

syndrome, in other words they are our fault. And where do the great

scientists of our time say all these diseases come from? No one

knows. How do you correct them? No one knows.

But fatigue is associated with all of them. There appears to be not

one but many failing systems also associated with these disorders.

In most cases there are some common causes of the system failures.

The most common cause seems to be a faulty immune system that allows

Candida Overgrowth! Observation and plain horse-sense strongly

points in that direction.

Candida overgrowth is usually always present, is it not?

WHY DOES CANDIDA OVERGROWTH OCCUR?

Please review the amazing story that develops as we follow the clues:

If you have ever taken cortisone, birth-control pills, antibiotics

or prolonged chlorine in high amounts, chances are very high that

you have partially or totally destroyed your secondary immune

system, your anti-fungal immune system! (The fungal immune system is

not the same as your primary immune system made up of T-cells,

antibodies, macrophages, etc.)

What is the fungal immune system? Initially in a adult it is about 6-

8 lbs of friendly bacteria in the lower gut. This should comprise

about 85% of all organisms in the bowels. The remaining 15% should

be fungus or yeast. It takes this ratio (or balance of power) to

keep the fungus in check. Fungus is the aggressor, much more

powerful than the bacteria and fungus has no anti-bodies to protect

itself so it produces very deadly mycotoxins. (Anti-bacterial

poisons)

Remember when found, penicillin was a mold on bread? Scientists

discovered that fungus is a natural enemy of bacteria and have used

different varieties to kill off unwanted or dangerous bacteria ever

since. Unknown was the danger of disrupting the delicate `balance of

power' in our bowels between the bacteria and fungus. It has led to

a dangerous increase of fungus in our bodies. The progress of

fungus/yeast overgrowth would now be unchecked.

Once the fungus takes over the bowels and conquers all remaining

friendly bacteria it migrates upward until filling the small

intestine where digestion and assimilation of all nutrients takes

place. However, when the small intestine fills with fungus this

process cannot take place. Organs and glands are deprived of its

building blocks and systems begin to fail. Bad digestion and

assimilation is now the result.

Hypoglycemia - Symptoms begin to show up and are usually viewed as

individual diseases themselves. The fungus in seeking its main food

of SUGAR upsets the body's whole sugar/insulin system. The person

deprived of the chaperone minerals needed to escort sugar and

insulin into the cells and useable proteins …… becomes hypoglycemic.

(No one tells us we need these minerals and proteins to get the

sugar out of the blood and into the cells)

Without these minerals the person now has low cellular sugar but

high blood sugar a perfect playground for fungus to feed. However,

now the cells do not have enough sugar to burn for energy so we

become less energetic if we do not eat often and we surely do not

have enough sugar to keep us alive during the night!

So, the brain now signals our `fight or flight' adrenal gland to

send out adrenal hormones to keep the body functioning during the

night, which it does. But the side effect is that during the night

the person may get hot or they may even have night sweats! The

adrenal gland is now working 24 hours per day!

All diabetics come from this type of person. All diabetics develop

from a hypoglycemic individual. If the lacking chaperone minerals

are not supplied, the person in time will become `insulin resistant'

and if the fungus attacks and inflames the Beta cells on the

pancreas (causing the

T-cells to clean up the mess and destroy the Beta cells) the person

will become diabetic. (The T-cells now get the total blame)

(Recommendation: Use our `Sugar Balance' Mini-minerals just before

each meal)

Constipation or diarrhea or both is usually due to the fungus

overgrowth that which destroys all probiotics or friendly bacteria.

Friendly bacteria are needed to plow the waste to keep you from

becoming constipated. (Use any probiotic) that works in whatever

reasonable amount needed ….. But, do not expect the taking of any

probiotics even expensive ones to re-populate your colon again. The

ever present myco-toxins along with changed p/H of the colon will

stop you. In virtually all cases you will forever have to take

probiotics. People resort to many remedies from prunes to herbs but

the real reason for the problem is a lack of friendly bacteria.

*In some individuals just using probiotics does not prevent

constipation. Why? It seems that in some people vital nutrients

necessary to feed the smooth muscle that surrounds the colon and

make it work properly are missing. These nutrients may also need to

be added. Usually you can see the symptoms of this lack by having

very narrow in circumference bowel movements. (Use any probiotics)

Hypothyroid - This fermenting begins the failure of the THYROID to

get building blocks to produce it's hormones in order to regulate

body temperature and important help towards the making of some neuro-

transmitters.

Not only does this lack of thyroid hormone produce some fatigue and

make the person's hands & feet cold but it can effect the brain in

several ways. One is foggy thinking. It seems to physically

interrupt short term memory because of Candida's alcohol by-product.

Alcohol is documented to cause brain and nervous system damage.

(Recommendation: Use Mini-mineral Iodine & perhaps some thyroid

glandular support)

Bloating or Gas - Think about this for a moment: What is produced

when Budweiser combines grains with yeast? They get alcohol do they

not? Well you have all the yeast in your body just waiting for you

to eat some bread, corn or other grain food like pancakes or

oatmeal. The alcohol by-product can make you semi-drunk and foggy

minded. This can also happen when you take in any food that turns

into quick sugar.

Bloating is caused by the combining of sugar with yeast. This makes

alcohol and another by-product carbon dioxide. (You are now like a

glass of beer with the bubbles rising) This fermenting process

disrupts the proper digestion process.

The person either bloats and holds the carbon dioxide or produces

the gas and releases it whenever they eat high glycemic

carbohydrates, grains or beans, etc. This is because these foods are

the main source of fast sugars which the fungus thrives on. Either,

avoid all foods that make you bloat or kill off the fungus

overgrowth having a party with the food you just ate.

(Recommendation: Use our Syclovir made from plankton. One teaspoon

in 4 ounces of water even while bloating should be appropriate)

Brain - The brain gets semi-drunk on the ethanol alcohol by-product

produced by the fungus when it digests sugars. This may cause brain-

fog, slurred speech or slow thinking. However, if the person also

has a low body temperature, the enzymes needed to break down the

ethanol may not be available. In this case the ethanol begins to

cause actual brain damage. (Recommendation: Use our system to raise

body temperature & or take hot baths, etc. to keep temperature up as

much as possible. Low body temperature may be dangerous in other

ways also)

Mal-absorption - is the result of fungus in the small intestine.

Normally yeast/fungus is only found in the large intestine. With

yeast overgrowth it migrates into the small intestine and covers all

the receptors for absorption plus dilutes all normal processes of

digestion. The person now begins to have organs and glands starving

for nutrients. Without those nutrients systems begin to shut down

such as; the blood cannot get iron from food, anemia; the thyroid

cannot get the amino acids necessary to make hormone, hypothyroid;

the chaperone minerals are missing to escort sugar and insulin into

the cells, hypoglycemia, etc.

(Recommendation: Same as `Leaky Gut Syndrome' below)

Depression - There are at least two major causes for `most'

depression, hypothyroidism and/or an imbalance of female hormones.

See PROGESTERONE below. Since the thyroid may be deprived of Iodine

and the amino acid tyrosine because of mal-absorption, depression

may occur. A severe case of hypo-thyroid-ism may result. Often

however, upon examination the thyroid will fall into a low-end-zone

of what is considered medically `OK'. In most cases no hormone is

given and the condition continues.

Individuals usually do not know that the thyroid is also involved in

the production of some neuro-transmitters. Without these they may

soon feel they require a drug for problems with depression. Upon

medical examination and at the `drop of a hat' a Prozac-like drug is

prescribed.

And this is only the beginning.

Remember the Thyroid is also one of the body's power plants. No

thyroid means low heat, low body temperature, low blood pressure and

maybe a low pulse rate which all equates to low energy. The thyroid

is only one broken system. There's more to come.

Progesterone - Ever wonder why so many women have to use

progesterone cream? It is because fungus devours it and changes it

into prednisone. In fact, Dr. Doug Kaufman MD & scientist plus an

author reports that drug companies farm fungus colonies, feeding

them progesterone to make the drug prednisone which they then sell

to consumers as a remedy for everything. It has been some time since

reading this material and I am reporting this from memory but have

not verified this.

Prednisone is just one of the many powerful mycotoxins of the fungus

that can kill bacteria. This explains why most women are estrogen

dominant. Not that they have a lot of estrogen but they lack

progesterone due to fungus overgrowth. These imbalances can cause

the face to break out, breast to lose firmness, hair problems and

perhaps the most significant …. Depression even migraines. Aside

from these problems a woman's skin can become so sensitive she can't

stand to be touched. The skin can become so painful intimacy becomes

impossible.

(Recommendation: Use our Amazon Female Formula – not Maca)

The main immune system of T-cells, etc. are now the only defense

against fungus though they are not equipped for this big of a job

throughout the whole body. This keeps the immune system so busy,

other unwanted guests enter the body without much opposition by the

immune system. In fact the mycotoxins secreted by the fungus confuse

the immune system and these unwanted invaders can hide in open view

without an immune response.

Little known fact: Candida suppresses the production of macrophages,

one of the main components of the main immune system. And when

engulfed by a macrophage, fungus is able to destroy the macrophage.

(see Dr Doug Kaufman's books on fungus)

Fungi secrete enzymes to even digest or inflame human cells then the

body releases chemicals – unfortunately more tissue death. Then when

the immune system arrives on the scene to clean up the damaged cells

as it is supposed to do, it often gets blamed for all the death and

destruction. An example is the destruction of Beta cells on the

pancreas that makes a person an insulin dependant diabetic.

Think for a moment ….. Who benefits most when all the sugar is left

in the blood with no way to enter the human cells. Is it the T-cells

or the fungus? Which one will dine on its favorite food 24 hours per

day because of this untimely death of the beta cells? Why would your

t-cells only attack the insulin producing Beta cells on the pancreas?

Anemia - Back to the digestion problem. More is lost than the two

main elements needed by the thyroid or the minerals for proper sugar

levels in the blood. IRON is also in short supply. Often the person

with this condition also develops anemia due to poor digestion.

Does this produce more fatigue? Indeed it does.

But it can get worse for some!

These patients often cannot get relief by taking iron supplements

from a health food store. This type of iron is often toxic. It is

not only the wrong size for the body to use, it is really in the

wrong form. But, because the body is so hungry for the right iron it

will latch on to this wrong iron and will not let it go.

More and more individuals are developing what is called

hemochromatosis. This just means they are toxic with improper iron

and the only protocol is blood-letting by a doctor because they

don't know how to make the body get rid of this wrong type of iron.

That's why many products now say on the label, " No Iron " …..

What they are really saying is, " You caught us, so we're not going

to give you any more of this wrong, toxic iron. "

This problem also occurs in children in the spectrum like autism.

Only they usually retain Copper in the wrong form and it cannot be

easily moved because the body is now deficient of usable copper in

the right form!

Principle: When you have an overload of a mineral that cannot be

moved out, it may mean you do not have the correct form of the

mineral and the body is really starved for the proper form of the

mineral. So, like a magnet the body holds on to anything that

resembles the proper mineral.

A hair analysis may tell you that you have plenty copper in the body

but it will not tell you if it is usable. Perhaps if you satisfy the

cells desire for the real mineral it will let go of the bad one.

(Recommendation: Use Mini-minerals `iron' plus `folic acid' and `B-

12' in the under the tongue form)

Acid Reflux - When proteins are eaten, the stomach secretes

hydrochloric acid and its two enzymes into the stomach to begin pre-

digestion. However, the fungus often will migrate still upward from

the small intestine and move into the stomach where this pre-

digestion is taking place. When this happens the hydrochloric acid

is diluted and the signal for the valve at the top of the stomach to

close tightly is muted so it often stays partly open.

Acid may now be able to go up towards the mouth burning the

esophagus. The problem is not too much acid, it is not enough acid

to close the valve due to the presence of fungus in the stomach.

(Recommendation: Syclovir, made from plankton)

Thrush - If the fungus climbs all the way to the mouth the person

will be said to have, Thrush. The tongue turns white with yeast. But

by the time this is seen the person has many more problems than just

thrush! And this is not really a disease it is just a symptom.

Leaky Gut Syndrome - The fungus is also wanting to get into the

blood to search for food since it keeps multiplying, so it drills

holes in the small intestine and makes its way into the blood

stream. These holes allow undigested food to leak into the blood and

the body cannot recognize them. These foods will eventually be

tagged as alien and anti-bodies will be made to attack them. This is

now a full-blown food allergy which is often a low-grade allergy

that causes lots of problems without any major symptoms for the

person to notice. After years, a person may develop joint problems

like arthritis and even allergy shiners. (dark circles around the

eyes) (Recommendation: Syclovir, made from plankton - plus for

Autism you may want to use Colostrum to repair the gut – all others

may use L-Glutamine – 90-120 days to repair if you keep the gut

clear of fungus)

Gallbladder - Now the fungus migrates freely into many places in the

body such as the gallbladder. It can fill this organ causing

problems with its function.

Kidney - It is estimated by some including doctors that fungus may

be the leading cause of Kidney failure without anyone being aware of

it.

Ears - Migrating into the ears the fungus causes ringing, doctors

give it a name and treat it as a separate disease like all of the

other symptoms of fungus overgrowth. If the ears are ringing the

next step is to move further in and cause dizziness and loss of

balance.

In its early stages though it may just cause itchy ears or clicking

sounds.

What is the medical explanation for this? Old age! However it also

effects the young!

Sinusitis - When the fungus migrates into the sinuses things just

get worse. Doctors have no remedy for this except to operate and

scrap the sinuses. It only comes back in time. This disorder is

miserable and adversely effects the health with post-nasal drip.

Sometimes large fungal balls have to be removed from the sinuses by

means of surgery.

What do doctors say causes this. No idea and no long term solution.

(Recommendation: See our liquid Resp-aide in a motorized nebulizer

for the respiratory system. Plus Syclovir, made from plankton for

the circulatory system)

Epstein-Barr virus - Consequently, these individuals often carry the

Epstein Barr virus, or another large viral colony which hides in the

spinal fluid or other location. It is easy to hide in the midst of

Candida's mycotoxins which confuses the immune system. Viruses are

notorious for pounding the body's organs while the fungus helps to

hide them from the immune system.

Sept. 19, 2000 A Wall Street journal writer wrote an article

entitled:

" New Theory Emerges on Fatigue Ailment "

" Dr. Lerner said daylong cardiac monitoring found that 95% of

Chronic-Fatigue patients he and his research team tested in two

separate small studies had abnormal electrocardiograms indicative of

heart damage.

Dr. Lerner said he suspects the heart damage is caused by Epstein-

Barr virus and Cytomegalovirus, both long implicated in the

condition. "

And to top it off, all of us have an 80% chance of also having the

Herpes virus. Epstein-Barr is a herpes virus.

Staph & Strep, the other unwanted Guests - Ever wonder why some get

pneumonia once a year? Others get staph infections every so often?

Or why some get Strep once or twice a year? Some get frequent colds

and flu?

The reason is that these infections may never leave the body at all.

People just have an episode and the microbe then hides in the

presence of the fungus and its mycotoxins. To eliminate these

totally the fungus & it's poisons must be controlled.

Other unwanted Guests Ever wonder why some get pneumonia once a

year? Others get staff infections every so often? Or why some get

Strep once or twice a year? Some get frequent colds and flu?

totally the fungus & it's poisons must be controlled.

ATP problems - Long term Candida problems eventually seem to include

a crippling of the ATP energy cycle. This is probably the most

difficult problem to overcome.

Adrenal Gland - The end result now is an overworked, depleted and

exhausted adrenal gland as it tries to maintain enough energy for

the person to live another day. When all the other energy systems

are failing especially the sugar/insulin system it puts stress on

the adrenal. Here's how: Not enough sugar in the cells and the

body's engines would shut off during the night but the brain signals

for the adrenal to send out adrenal hormones to keep all the cells

working even without sugar (its normal fuel).

Adrenal hormones generate heat as they are usually used in `flight'

or `fight' mode of the body. This logically may cause night sweats

depending on the lack of sugar in the cells on any given night.

Cancer - Fungus is always seeking sugar and as a parasite that

cannot produce sugar. It is also very ready to donate half of its

DNA to any life-form so it can make a hybrid that can produce sugar.

In nature Fungus overpowers Algae and makes such a hybrid and we

call it Lichen which is found growing on rocks. Fungus is not an air

breather & neither is cancer! Read the book by Dr. Doug Kaufman MD

dealing with the fungus/cancer relationship.

Leprosy & Tuberculosis - Both of these diseases are listed as

a " mycobacterium " . Myco means fungal and bacterium is a bacteria. As

we already know hybrid mycobacterium's can be very deadly. Leprosy

is called `mycobacterium leprae'.

It doesn't take a genius to realize that the Hypoglycemic, the

Diabetic and the Cancer patient all crave and depend on SUGAR!

Heart Disease - Once the sugar/Insulin system is severely disrupted

a person like an autistic child, ADD person, the hypoglycemic person

& especially the diabetic will begin to lay down plaque in the

arteries 10 to 100 times faster than normal. This explains why

virtually all diabetics after suffering a life of pain and problems,

in the end dies from a plaque induced heart attack!

Mycotoxins – A final note about these abundant toxins that get

embedded into the colon wall. They are not water soluble; they are

somewhat heat stable; they are resistant to UV light. No one as yet

has found a perfect or easy way to neutralize these toxins or to

repopulate the colon and reestablish the daily, natural, friendly,

bacterial protection from fungus overgrowth. These toxins also

confuse the immune system which may allow unwanted guest to remain

in the body even after they seem to be gone. Some of these such as

cold or flu viruses, staph, strep, pneumonia and bronchitis may be

repeat offenders in many individuals due to the mycotoxins.

When we stop taking Probiotics, we have no Probiotics largely due to

these toxins. Until we find a way to rectify this we will have to

use something to manually control our fungal levels each day to

protect ourselves from the ultimate goal of fungus ……. " To bring us

back to the dust " , for without our pristine bacterial secondary

immune system the fungus assumes we are dead.

How Permanent is the damage to our Fungal Immune System?

Our original maybe 6 pounds of friendly bacteria as an adult was no

little thing to lose. Please understand it was like a priceless

crystal vase standing on a pedestal. Once the vase gets knocked off

the pedestal and shatters into a zillion pieces, can it be easily

put back together again? That's why our generation has to take

probiotics and cannot stop taking them. The colony virtually never

re-appears again on the wall of the colon. We can only keep friendly

bacteria in the waste itself.

And always remember yeast is like Elvis, always ready to make a

comeback because it is in the very air we breathe.

What questions to ask to see if you may have Fungus/Yeast Overgrowth?

Do you….

bloat when you eat?

form gas when you eat?

have cold hands or feet?

have acid reflux?

have brain fog?

have an itchy nose?

ear sensitivity/ringing/itching or fluid in the ears?

suffer from fatigue for no reason?

have a dry mouth?

have vision that gets blurry then clear then blurry?

Are you….

hypoglycemic? (shaky if meal is missed, sleepy after a meal, sweat

during sleep)

prone to constipation or diarrhea or both?

hypothyroid? (cold hands or feet)

borderline anemic?

as a female, suffering from hormone imbalance, it may producing

headaches, migraines, depression or painful periods.

According to published books on the subject: A yes to at least 3 of

these main questions indicates fungus overgrowth.

Some of the more than 100 symptoms of Candida overgrowth are: Short

term memory loss, persistent drowsiness, fatigue, brain fog,

headaches, mood swings, dizziness, loss of balance, lack of

coordination, ear sensitivity/ringing/itching or fluid in the ears,

blurred vision, rashes, mucous in stools, diarrhea/constipation or

both, postnasal drip, frequent colds, (recurring strep throat,

sinusitis or bronchitis), heartburn, nasal itch and or congestion,

nervous irritability, tightness of the chest, dry mouth or throat.

And because of belching, bloating, flatulence or indigestion, we

develop bad breath, cold hands or feet, thyroid problems,

depression, anemia & sugar disorders. Some of the above are usually

worse on damp days.

Some disorders that usually are accompanied by Candida Overgrowth:

Irritable bowel Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Cancer, Diabetes,

Hypoglycemia, Chronic fatigue, Ebstein-Barr virus, Pneumonia, Lupus,

most Acid Reflux & Hiatal hernia.

Lack of progesterone in women is often the result of Candida

overgrowth converting their progesterone into prednisone.

ANTI FUNGAL DIET

Foods that feed Candida:

High glycemic foods like alcoholic beverages, white rice, bread,

potatoes, pasta, corn (including popcorn) carrots, apples, bananas,

grapes. Also avoid vinegar, most dairy, peanuts, cashews. Remember,

all grains and beans feed fungus.

Do you crave any of these foods?

Remember to follow the clues.

What is the main food of fungus? Sugar!

What is the craving of a person who suffers from hypoglycemia? Sugar!

What is diabetes linked to? Sugar!

What is the primary food of cancer? Sugar!
