This is from my article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " that was sent to you when you joined (if you did not keep it go to our Group's left menu and click on files; it's in the 1st Folder): " Yogurt & Kefir would ordinarily be a good sources of probiotics, however many candida sufferers cannot tolerant them, for a number of reasons. It has been found that candida sufferers are also intolerant of homemade yogurt and kefir, where most of the lactose (sugar) content is removed by longer fermentation times. Please note that the higher the butterfat content in dairy the lower the lactose content (butter contains the least amount of lactose). The problem for candida sufferers is caused by more than just lactose content. It is because candida sufferers have inadequate digestion, making it is difficult for them to break down nutrients in all foods, but dairy products, other than butter, are particularly difficult to digest. This is mainly caused by pasteurization and homogenization which damages dairy products. It is more evident in dairy products, other than butter, even in homemade kefir and yogurt. Milk proteins like casein also make dairy very difficult to digest. While most candida sufferers can have butter without any problems, others can only tolerate ghee (clarified butter) which does not contain these proteins. For more information on butter see the Section on Fats and Oils above. Commercially made yogurt and kefir is high in lactose content because they are made from low fat milk products, in addition to being made from pasteurized and/or homogenized milk. Even though some of the problems associated with processed dairy may be eliminated by using raw dairy it still doesn't seem to help candida sufferers. Even when yogurt and kefir are homemade from raw dairy and fermented long enough to lower the lactose, it still causes problems for candida because lactose is changed into another sugar called galactose during the fermentation process, and it also contains casein. It has been found that candida sufferers who hang on to their dairy products, other than butter, continue to have problems until they entirely eliminate them. Later on some candida sufferers may be able to tolerate small amounts of homemade yogurt and kefir, but they should still proceed with caution until they have cured their candida.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 > > > Bee ...... I'm just curious since our fat intake on this program is high, shouldn't my skin be oily instead of being so dry? Before starting this program, my face and hair used to be really oily now it's the opposite .... they're both very dry. What do you think would cause that? +++Hi Maddy. Your skin wouldn't be really oily on high fats, but it wouldn't be dry either. Mainly thyroid malfunction causes dry skin. Also it takes time for the body to balance itself as to nutrient levels in order for the cells to be able to intake and utilize water, which are mainly " good " fats along with oil soluble vitamins A, D & E, and also minerals - see this article about Dry Skin by Dr. Tom Cowan: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/skin2.php However, he recommends taking sulphur but you won't need it on this diet since there are so many foods that contain sulphur, i.e. lemons, eggs, meats, etc. Also candida toxins make all of the body's cell membranes go rigid/stiff which takes time to improve - see this article: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/cabout1.php In addition your body heals from the inside out, so healing resources are being directed towards vital inner organs rather the skin at this time. > thanks Bee ....... hoping to get together over the holidays when I have some time off +++That would be great Maddy. Give me a call. Luv, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
