Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Price seems high to me, so I won’t buy it in order to see everything the author says. A lot of the information is available in other sources, though – or at least the bits that were included in the write-up are commonly found in other materials on the subject, all of which I can get for free. When I see something overpriced, then I become suspicious. A hardback book is worth $27, but a downloadable e-book should be less, in my opinion. Still, it’s good to have other resources out there. Problem is that there is no easy “cure” for candida elimination. Takes a lot of hard work and time Kim M.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 This talk about candida reminded of some stuff I read on another board, and was wondering what other people thought: One person said her immunologist told her she was allergic to candida, and that treating that got rid of the symptoms of candida overgrowth. She said the symptoms that candida causes you to feel are mostly from the allergy to the yeast. The immunologist also told her to eat fruit, because avoiding it all together makes the candida dig its roots further into the gut to find sugar. A second person said the use of medications and prescription pharmaceuticals often fail because they are normally prescribed for periods longer then 20-30 days. This allows the Candida to build up a resistance to the medication, and it stops working. When this occurs, the Candida grows back stronger and able to resist the original medicine. Do you think either of these statements are accurate? Holly Crohn's SCD 12/01/08 > > Price seems high to me, so I won't buy it in order to see everything the > author says.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Just to add my two cents, I have heard from (?) that her doctor told her something similar. Her's said that the reduction in sugars from eliminating fruit actually encourages the yeast to transform into a more aggressive type (with a two prong tail?) and it is more difficult to get rid of. If this 'tail' is what sets down roots into the gut in the first place, this would make sense because we know that yeast does transform and does put 'roots' into the intestinal walls. What hasn't been stated before is WHY it transforms this way--maybe the trigger is that the dominant position is then threatened by the reduction of fruit/sugars and therefore it transforms as part of a self preservation. It is an interesting theory.....AmeliaTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Tue, March 9, 2010 10:29:40 PMSubject: Re:Re: candida doc's book I have actually heard the allergy theory. Two of my friends that I strongly suspect have candida test positive to a yeast allergy, although I do not and my symptoms are worse than both of them. As far as the fruit thing, I have never heard any science supporting that, and it does not seem to make sense to me. I do believe yeast will become increasingly desperate, but digging deeper in the gut is where it is going to find sugars? Maybe it retreats there for protection. I should say that removing fruit from my diet (and my daughter's) does not seem to have conquered our yeast problems, although they have decreased. The resistance theory I have heard about many times, that is why it is recommended to rotate anti-fungals. > > > > Price seems high to me, so I won't buy it in order to see everything the > > author says.
