Candida and poo question

[Guest guest]

Began killing off Candida 3 weeks ago with Candizyme & grapefruit seed

extract... began Diflucan a week ago. I have noticed drastic

improvement in my ability to digest and tolerate vegetables! Finally I

am making progress on SCD!!! Almost everything appears to be digesting

well! Yipee!

I have read some old posts on here about poo that is in small round

balls... the previous posts advised to try the constipation protocol.

The problem is- I am not constipated. I have a bowel movement once or

twice every day-- they are just ping-pong sized with brown slime all

over them. I was told by a nurse that this can often happen as the

candida is leaving the system, that it has to do with the way the

intestines are working to help get rid of the candida from the large

intestinal walls.

I have tried to increase my veggies to see if my BMs would start

looking better... but good and bad news- everything comes out

perfectly digested... just in perfect balls. I am rarely experiencing

gas/abdominal pain now, and the candida die-off symptoms are pretty

much gone! yipee!

Since I am still having bowel movements every day and not experiencing

discomfort, is there any cause for concern with the shape of them?

I introduced beats yesterday to see if they might help.I am also doing

about a deciliter of goat yogurt every day.

Thanks!

It sounds as if you have some extra mucous production going on.Mucous

can happen if there is problems in the bowel or as the nurse told you

as the yeast leave your body. The body produces the mucous to

protect itself from the yeast (die off ) toxins. Have you tried

epsom salt baths? They help to pull the toxins out of the body

through the skin and away from the bowels...

I think that as you continue to heal your bowels should slowly start

to improve. First the mucous production should start to decrease and

as you continue to add more legal fibre the stools should smooth out.

The stool you describe does not sound like regular constipation, but

does sound like it is getting better.

The yogurt is probably helping quite a bit with the yeast. I am glad

to hear that your symptoms are improving! Congratulations! : )
