Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Sounds like yeast, but do not rule out liver, because reduced bile flow often goes hand in hand with leaky gut. Blood tests do not always reveal liver problems, especially reduced bile flow. The tests and technology available for liver testing is not the greatest. I have diagnosed liver problems, and liver enzyme essays are always in the normal range.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 No, you probably did not get rid of it. The immune system is supposed to keep check over the yeast, but when the mucosal lining is damaged, and pathogens multiply like no tomorrow, the immune system gets overworked, taxed, its abilities scattered, and depressed. Healing that lining will heal the immune system directly and go a long ways to keeping the yeast in check again. Until then, we keep batting the yeast down with sticks waiting for that large stone to recouperate! It is also important to note that yeast can mutate up to every 4 days, becomming resistent over time to certain anti-fungals. Some people here use a rotation of anti-fungals when it is really getting out of hand. No ones story is too long here, there is no such thing. So many of us have very long stories, if not all of us!

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yes, I've read it. My doc is in the process of getting me to where I can eat these SCD foods. Without being able to eat any fiber at all, or anything the least bit acidic, it's kinda tough. As for any kind of probiotic, you can forget it. One little tiny lick from a capsule of it, and I'm sick for three days. In other words, something awful is going on in my stomach. I was just wondering if you were saying there was something in addition to SCD that helped in healing. I know all about the diet. But I'm still just an SCD wannabe. :-) ~ > >Reply-To: pecanbread >To: pecanbread >Subject: Re: Floating, light colored stools >Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2006 21:56:28 -0800 (PST) > >Have you had a chance to read " Breaking the Vicious Cycle " by Elaine >Gottschall yet? > > The diet is of gentle, easily digested foods, to aid healing of the >intestine, and all out warfare on the viral, bacterial and fungal pathogens >that have taken up residence.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yes, I've read it. My doc is in the process of getting me to where I can eat these SCD foods. Without being able to eat any fiber at all, or anything the least bit acidic, it's kinda tough. As for any kind of probiotic, you can forget it. One little tiny lick from a capsule of it, and I'm sick for three days. In other words, something awful is going on in my stomach. I was just wondering if you were saying there was something in addition to SCD that helped in healing. I know all about the diet. But I'm still just an SCD wannabe. :-) ~ > >Reply-To: pecanbread >To: pecanbread >Subject: Re: Floating, light colored stools >Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2006 21:56:28 -0800 (PST) > >Have you had a chance to read " Breaking the Vicious Cycle " by Elaine >Gottschall yet? > > The diet is of gentle, easily digested foods, to aid healing of the >intestine, and all out warfare on the viral, bacterial and fungal pathogens >that have taken up residence.
