Re: On yeast and neutrophils

[Guest guest]

After spending two years on Autism-Mercury battling yeast and

discussing and treating candida, here is what we have learned:

Yeast goes with metals. If you have metals, you'll have yeast. Mercury

kills off certain flora in the gut this allows other flora like

candida to overgrow. So this first measure sets us up for candida to

take over.

Yes, candida protects the gut in some measure from mercury damage,

another reason it overgrows. Third reason: your immune system is

suppressed from mercury. Mercury also allows other viruses, and

bacterial to inhabit your body unchecked, not just candida.

Neutrophils kill many things, and their ability to do this is impaired

in mercury poisoning. I think if I remember right that applied beyond

just candida. This goes for any white cells, (aka immune system

suppression or dysfunction), also why we get autoimmune. This is the

reason so many metal kids on A-M have underlying viral/bacterial

infections for years.

So one: your gut is destroyed from mercury imbalancing the normal

flora. This is also what causes leaky gut. Years of candida unchecked

makes holes in the intestinal wall, and allows partially digested

proteins to leak into the blood stream. (see A-M on that too)

Two: Candida loves mercury:as the methylation paper said

Three: low immune function is caused by mercury, normally without

mercury, the body always has candida, but it keeps a balance of it. It

is not able to do this in the presence of mercury for the reasons above.

I honestly have not talked to one person with metal poisoning who is

candida free or does not have a yeast problem to some degree. On

Mercury Autism yeast treatment is a part of chelation using Andy's

protocol.

What we see is that people who don't treat this overgrowth of candida

are a lot sicker and don't do well with chelation. Especially,

children. In fact most of the side effects parents ask about when a

child is on a round, are from the yeast overgrowth, which once

treated, go away and chelation goes on with no side effects. Too much

candida is very toxic and infects the entire body, releasing toxins.

So you do want to treat it. And your body will continue to allow it to

overgrow while you go through treatment, until you reach a point when

the mercury is low enough and the immune system well enough. The

reports on A-M are somewhere around 50-60 rounds..yeast finally

subsides. There are also other viral/bacterial problems to deal with,

which is why we also have a viral protocol for that. It seems mercury

toxic people walk around with all kinds of bugs for years.

The only reason for taking neutrophil boosters is for people who get

low neutrophils from using dmsa, as you said. These people get very

sick if they don't bring their levels back up. The rest of us don't

need to do this, but as you said need antifungals. Someone who gets

sick a lot would needs immune boosting products. On A-M some children

have to take them to get through chelation because there immune

systems are so badly damaged.

I am someone who is seriously poisoned and has no yeast problem.

I do have low numbers of beneficial gut organisms (confirmed by testing).

OK so I have talked to ONE person..sorry . Let's say that most

people unless you have confirmed that you don't have candida via

testing and antibodies should not rule it out.

Most people who have used antibotics, or birth control pills should

look into this. A good source to read if your interested in finding

out if candida is an issue is " The Yeast Connection " .

I don't have a yeast problem either; but that's because I am on a sulfur

restricted diet. Since the yeast need sulfur to grow, they are in trouble in

my gut!
