candida

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I had a post somewhere here regarding candida and I cannot locate it so here is

my take on it.

First you need to understand that candida must be dealt with swiftly or it can

become systemic. Okay, so with that knowledge here are other important points.

When doing a cleansing/flushing program that is as radical as what the gb flush

is then you need to absolutely supplement your diet with a good source of

friendly bacteria and this is a must because all the cleansing, flushing,

whatever you are doing, is not selective in what it is flushing from your body

and you can get in a heap of trouble without replenishing things such as

beneficial flora. Yogurt, bifidus/acidolphilus supplement, raw saurkraut.

You must not eat any sugars, this is a stringent must, absolutely no sugars

other than stevia, no yeasted breads either. You would use any nuts, seeds and

oils sparsely and only about 1/2 tsp. of olive oil for cooking but not anymore.

Olive oil doesn't promote the candida but if taken in large quantity it can.

The only thing you can have in way of fats of this nature is flax oil, and flax

seed, make sure to crush it up if your sprinkling on your foods. Garlic is good

to put in your daily diet, as much garlic as you can ie: about 2-3 cloves a day

before you eat or with your meal. If your not accustom to garlic, you need to

work your way up to dose otherwise you will get extremely ill because it really

does cleanse the body of toxic waste. Candida wreaks havoc in the system with

the toxins it dumps daily.

Dark greens rich in chlorophyll (sp?). This is another essential. Pau D'

Arco tea helps control the growth of it. and oh yeah, seaweed and kelp,

absolutely a must too, excellent for killing that yeast over-growth.

I do hope some of this helps whoever wrote in regarding this. I have dealt

with this myself from antibiotics, ERT, and improper cleansing, I have had

candida many times from these. Back when chaparel was available for use also.

Eventually I got it all under control using stringent daily diet for about 4-6

weeks lots of bitter teas that were made with fresh dried herbs (dandelion root,

chaparrel, sheep sorrel, burdock root--a few I recall) Remember, depending on

the severity will be how long it takes to get it under control. I wish you well

and please do some research on more of the components of the diet because it can

be quite lengthy.

Peace
