Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Much as I love watermelon, that cleanse wouldn't be hard for me. I think I'd rather just take warm bubble baths all through the day and eat melon then and when out. Boy would that be fun. Too much melon and fruit over a few days gives me candida though. But watermelon is so good for you. of DH " People are like stain glass windows; they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is alight within.

Here I am again. Can you elaborate on how you know that the melon & fruit gives you candida? I know they are high in sugar - but I mean how do you know that you have the candida from them? Do you have specific symptoms that increase after eating a lot of fruit/melon? I'm just interested to know how people 'know' these things.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Thanks for that explanation, . I've never experienced a candida imbalance, personally, and it's interesting to read what it's like for someone.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2002 Report Share Posted February 17, 2002 Well, I notice my candida first in my ears. They start feeling full and crackling inside and itchy. I had been doing all good things when this happened with the water melon juice which I'd bee drinking for several days (washing rind well and juicing the whole thing) and realized it was the juice that did it. But ya know what? I dearly love watermelon and it's so very good for you in other ways. So I do indulge. Candida imbalance can definately be managed by slowing down on starches, and taking oil of oregano oil, colloidal silver or vegetable juices adn garlic really cut it. of DH Can you elaborate on how you know that the melon & fruit gives you candida?

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2002 Report Share Posted February 18, 2002 Wow Michele, I really do admire your sticking at the watermelon 'cleanse' I just could not spend that much time in the bath to be honest. nne > All in all feel great and can't wait for Friday night (crossing fingers that > all this preparation is going to help the liver cleanse), > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2002 Report Share Posted February 18, 2002 Hi , Well, Monday morning and survived the weekend! Had my first colonic hydrotherapy on Friday and did the kidney cleanse on Saturday! Quite proud of myself now and getting ready for the liver cleanse this Friday coming up. The Colonic was a great success - more so with the fact that the hydrotherapist was a massive follower of all cleanses/juice fasting etc and totally on the same wavelength in thinking on this matter. Felt fantastic when I was on the jouney home - felt very clear headed and as though I was 'smiling' inside - the weirdest of emotions! Definately recommend it! The Kidney 'bath' cleanse ended up quite fun and had a lovely 'me' time with plenty of mags, books and the radio to keep me company. After the first hour (juiced the first watermelon and stored in a bucket of ice until drunk) my 'wee' was completely clear, which I presumed was the result of my kidney being 'washed'. No discomfort at all and only side effects was my feet were so white and wrinkly had to keep sticking them out to try and dry them and was extremely fed up with watermelon 8 hours later! So I presume my kidneys are in quite good shape now (heard that if you do have kidney infection or stones etc that it would hurt to wee due to the watermelon's antiseptic qualities in the rind). All in all feel great and can't wait for Friday night (crossing fingers that all this preparation is going to help the liver cleanse), Many thanks, Michele -----Original Message----- From: Rachd1961@...

It's not my personal cup of tea, but I would be interested to hear your experience with it and results that you think you may have obtained. And I'd also like to know if you looked like a prune at the end of a day in the bath. :) I did, though, attempt a watermelon kidney cleanse once. Just in the sense of attempting to eat nothing but watermelon for a day.(just didn't sit in the bath) I'd like to believe that it did me some good - but I was really sick of watermelon by the end of that day!
