## Hi ,

Thank you , I will take that under advisement .

However the aforementioned outdated files and files being strung from the forum

to the new website can stir confusion . Thus , should be addressed and corrected

.. Especially , with regards to constant addition of new members who could find

this daunting and frustrating .

I too have a website and appreciate the perspective of both the host/developer

and guest/member .

Regards ,

Hi Ed,

I agree with you, however, this is something that Bee will need to address.

In the meantime, let's just refer people to her website where the information is

constantly being updated.

Thanks!

+++Hi . Welcome to our group. Sorry my friend, but there is no other

candida program like this one, and that is why this program gets results where

others fail. This is a very high " good " fats program and low-carbs, along with

moderate protein.

So it is important you understand that Candida cannot be cured by " killing it

off. " Candida is only cured by building up the immune system, which is done by:

1) Consuming " proper nutrients " (diet plus supplements),

2) Eliminating toxins and foods that feed candida (they also feed bacteria and

cancer),

3) Eliminating damaging foods, and

4) Eliminating toxins in general.

The reason snacks aren't good is because your body only needs 3 square meals per

day, and some people do better only eating 2 meals per day. Snacking between

meals or eating more often is not healthy.

Your body needs the time between meals to digest, absorb and utilize the

nutrients without having its energies directed towards digesting more food. If

you eat enough food at mealtime, two to three times a day, it will sustain you

until the next meal, particularly when you consume enough " good " fats.

Also raw nuts shouldn't be eaten unless they are properly soaked and dried

first, which is explained here:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/foods18.php

Also most raw almonds in North America are now be irradiated (zapped with

radiation) which shouldn't be eaten since they cause damage in your body, just

like microwaving foods does.

To help with hypoglycemia until your body changes over to running on good fats

instead of carbs/glucose you can have some protein and good fats between meals,

but that should only take 4 months on this program.

Please ensure you read two important articles so you understand candida, and

know what you need to do and why:

Thank you Bee!I went out today and purchased all of the vitamins. I've done a

diet quite similar to yours for a while. So it's hasn't been difficult to make

those changes.

I just have two questions..

I'm so glad you're saying I can have snacks. I'm feeling so dizzy, headache, and

cranky! My fats aren't as high right now since I'm only taking 1 tsp of coconut

oil. What snacks would you recommend? Something easy would be a plus. I'm a

teacher and would normally just grab a handful of almonds or eat an apple, but

since I can't eat those...what would you recommend? Hard boiled egg?

Also, I just started with 1 tsp of coconut oil. How long should I stay on 1 tsp

before I increase? When I increase next should I just add another 1/2 tsp? I

feel like it might take me forever to reach 6 tbsp. I've only taken 1 tsp for 2

days and I'm feeling it!

Thank you!!!

Hi ,

Yes, hard boiled eggs are a good option for a snack while you are transitioning.

Could you also eat some butter with your egg? Eating fat will help to make you

feel satisfied.

It took me almost 6 months to get up to 6Tbsp. of coconut oil. It's different

for everyone. Just go at your own pace.

All the best,

Hi ,

I just wanted to make clear that does NOT think that snacking is okay. But that

you should eat enough at each meal to get you to the next. You might want to

reread her reponse to you about what she says about snacking.

If you are so hungry that you can't make it to the next, though, then the hard

boiled eggs would be okay, while you are transitioning onto the diet.

I hope that is clear and that I didn't cause too much confusion with my other

response to you.

I can't tolerate any dairy. I've looked for ghee but haven't found it in my

stores. What are other snack ideas?

Hi ,

You can make your own ghee. Here is a recipe from Bee's website:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/butter2.php

You can eat any leftover foods as a snack. Here are some specific snack/recipe

ideas:

Bee's website contains a wealth of information!

> Hi Bee,

> I wrote to you about a week ago, asking if I could have snacks. I did not have

any snacks for the first 11 days of following your diet. However, today I did

not eat a big enough lunch because I was really hungry a few hours later. I

didn't have anything to quickly heat up to eat, so I grabbed some roast beef.

(It's roast beef that I got from the deli counter at Whole Foods, it's just

roast beef, salt, and pepper. My husband just got it today. Is deli meat from a

counter okay?

>

++Hi . It is important that you be able to " think " with the information

and decide for yourself. Ask yourself " what " is in that deli meat that isn't

healthy? In the roast beef it is the salt, which is regular table salt.

However, it may be a small amount so having it won't cause a great harm. But if

you start having a lot of processed foods that contain table salt it adds up and

isn't healthy.

Each kind of deli meat will be different too, since most have preservatives,

sulfites, nitrates, etc. and if they are smoked they are not okay. Also some

already have molds on them.

Cheers, Bee

Thank you! Sorry for asking so many food questions! I've been very good on the

diet so far. I tried lamb burgers for the first time last night and loved them!

I have to go back to work soon. What would you recommend in terms of packing a

lunch? Salads with meat, or tuna. Or would it be okay to bring in leftovers and

heat in the microwave. I don't have or use a microwave at home. But at work, I

can't heat things on a stove top! haha!

Also, I made my own homemade mayo for the first time today! It's really good. I

intend on making your tuna recipe and the chicken egg salad this week!

Hello All,

What do you give your kids for snacks that are OK with Dr G? I try to give high

protein and veges as much as possible. Since nuts and fruit are out, even

homemade trail mix is out. I found some " turkey stix " at Whole Foods that are

nitrite and nitrate free that have 8 gms of protein. I was so excited until I

saw the last ingredient is paprika. Dr. G says no red spices! I asked the

office staff and they said as long as it is meat, it's OK. What do yall do

about pepperoni and sausage that have " spices " in them? Are they a " no-no " ? I

read somewhere that cashews are the least allergenic nut. Do any of you include

them in your diets?

My son's eosinophils have never been elevated, but his NK cells have only gone

up to 6 after 9 years at 2 or below. Dr. G says diet is a factor. Well, I am

with

Caroline about diet burnout and frustration. It boils down to always feeling

guilty about never doing enough!

TIA,

Ellen

Wow, I didn't know nuts were out. Dr. R told us no whole wheat, dairy, or milk

chocolate. Even looking at http://nids.net/diet.htm it doesn't mention nuts or

peanuts anywhere. Is there a more definitive source for the diet?

Thanks,

[Guest guest]

Nuts are high in arginine (not sure about peanuts). I think viral people want to

avoid high-arginine diets and have (or supplement) diets higher in lysine.
