Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 .. This is my understanding of candida precisely as you have noted..Huggins (I believe) says that Candida is a direct result of mercury leeching into your gut and its your bodies attempt to curtail it (mercury) and limit its damage..candida in turn leads to parasites and other gut problems etc etc etc I am sure there can be other root causes too like antibiotics, steriods, alcohol, your internal terrain being messed up...so i think good diet and eliminating sugars may help BUT will help a lot more once amalgams are gone and you are chelating My nutritionist told me that he and a group had done an informal study examining candida in people some 20 years ago with either dark field microscopes or something that has now being outlawed..100% correlation betwen people that had mercury fillings had candida..those without mercury fillings had no candida or very low levels SO my feeling is all you can do with candida until you chelate and remove amalgams is stop gap even dangerous if you treat candida very aggressively with probiotics/aloe vera/etc and other prescriptions...given the amount of mercury and other crud that will be released with die off Cilantro is a mercury mobilizer per Andy... I know it was cilantro that screwed up my head over a year ago that i am still recovering from MY OPINION ONLY > > Sorry I didn't mean to sound annoyed in my response and I appreciate the help. I do get tired of hearing about candida though. Maybe its different for men than it is for women, I'm not sure. But from what I understand there are no real tests for candida overgrowth, so you can't really know if its an issue for your health, although its symptom list is so long almost everyone could potentially have it. Many of the symptoms are the same as mercurialism however, and I wonder how many mercury sufferers are diagnosed with candida instead and spend years trying to control candida, when it will just go awsay on its own once the mercury isn't an issue. > > I imagine many people are misdiagnosed with candida overgrowth and put on potentially unhealthy diets and drugs. From my understanding candida is an opportunistic organism not a pathogen, so getting rid of candida is impossible without taking its opportunity to grow away. So it really isn't candida that's the problem, it just shows up as a result of another problem, whether its amalgam, infection, AIDS, etc. I think candida is more of a symptom that a root cause, but it seems that many people think of it as a root cause and try and 'cure' it when that really makes no sense. It would be like trying to cure yourself of bacteria when there are more bacteria in your body than there is cells. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
