Re: how GAIN wt,stg 1 consti candida

You probably need to read this which goes over the requirements for SCD and

Candida Elimination.

Overview of Candida and the SCD

http://pecanbread.com/p/how/yeast.html

Suggested Phases of Candida and the SC Diet

http://pecanbread.com/p/how/ayeast2.html

Bananas aren't good for the Candida elimination phase since its too high in

sugar. (See this page: http://pecanbread.com/p/how/ayeast4.html ).

Hopes this helps.

the weight will come as you heal -try not to panic -i used avoc, banana (can't

have anymore)pecan butter, yog and diluted juice twice a day in the beginning -

do you mean antiparasite as in to kill yeast?? if so... acidophilus (lucys

,klaire labs and kirkman have some) also s boullardi, olive leaf extract, oil of

oregano - and glutamine will be helpful in helping the gut heal faster 3 scoops

per day (soaced out)in water on an empty belly is what I used to do

Hi all,

I'm curious about the yeast thing and read the Pecanbread links below. I do have

some of the symptoms listed (cold hands/feet, tendency toward acne, nasal

congestion, lethargy, headaches...) but I feel like these could just be due to

the " baddies " in my gut or side effects from birth control pills (which I am

stopping after this cycle) or Entocort (steroid). Is yeast something you just

know you have, if it's a problem? I've never had a yeast infection or thrush.

I'm just wondering if I should be doing the Anti-candida version of SCD or if

it's not necessary. Thanks!

Question, I have boulardi and oil of oregano.... should I have those at opposite

times of the day when I take the yogurt...

the yogurt seems to be helping a little bit...and I really don't want to disturb

its progress and kill it off unintentionally

I'm just a beginner SCD'er myself.

I know that week three of the SCD, I had a really bad break out of acne which

lasted a while, and seems to be clearing up a bit, the further along I go.

I read here on the Candida-Yeast forum:

http://www.candidayeastthrushforum.com/view_topic.php?id=127 & forum_id=1

That the spit test for candida, which I've even done, isn't conclusive.

According to candiday, the yeast themselves are not the problem, but the waste

products emitted by the fungi. Some people are allergic to it, others not.

You are only on week 3 - I would just do the yogurt for a while and let

that get sorted out in your gut.

Doing all those things together might just screw up progress. It's too

much to do all that initially.

After a while, slowly add in the other things, oil of oregano at the opposite

time of day.

Wow, that hasn't been me! I've been gaining weight since starting both LDN and

SCD, and had to buy bigger clothes. That is, until I had a setback a couple

months ago and lost a few pounds (ironically, I went off LDN for that time

because I needed the occasional pain pill). At least I can afford to eat cheese

again! I had to stop when I was gaining too much weight.

There was an article awhile back about a new diet drug with ldn and welbutrin (I think) combined to make a weight loss drug.  I haven't had the side effect with LDN either.  It does seem to help with bloating--I have no idea how.  I use it at night and the bloat goes away.  I'm maintaining, not really gaining or losing.  Like I mentioned, I'm about 10lbs. over my old weight (pre-cd).  I'm pretty convinced what I would like to lose would require excercise, not weight loss really.  Just the hip.stomach area ;-).  We're all so different, I hope things even out for you soon--losing or gaining.
