Guest guest Posted October 17, 2002 Report Share Posted October 17, 2002 Most reports on cider vinegar that I have seen say that it is fine for candida, because of it's ph and extremely low acidity. You may want to stick with Bragg's or some other organic though, to avoid preservatives. 2 Questions Hi, I have 2 questions. One is that I have these tiny little like dots all along the inside of my lip area. Went to the dentist a long time ago and he didn't know what it was. Does anyone else have this? It worries me, but then I wonder if it is the candida. Another thing, I just strated taking apple cider vinegar for some artheritis. Will this be bad for me with candida?

I've had this for years and you can forget about getting a diagnosis from a regular doctor. This is subcutaneous candida, it can form masses and travel by germ terms to the whole body, it puts out roots and is very difficult to get rid of. The only thing I know of to fight this and eliminate it is the immune system. This started and traveled from the gut so this is the place to start to try and eliminate it. Start taking a good colon cleanser and keep it up to keep transit time as short as possible. I take Dr. 's lower bowel formula (FenLB). Alkalize with lots of green foods. I take powdered Alfalfa, Barley Grass, Wheatgrass, Horsetail, Slippery Elm, Milk Thistle, Beet, Spinach, Oat Straw, Kelp, Dandelion, Irish Moss, Ginger, Rose Hips and Bee Pollen. I also take Brewers Yeast, this is controversial but it seems to help me. I would also be consistant with the probiotics and take as many strains as you can get, don't be afraid to take a lot. I'm taking iFlora and Microflora Restore. This protocol will take a load off the immune system and give it a chance to eliminate the subcutaneous candida. Don't get discouraged, it takes a long time.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Hi Jeanne, I'll reply to your email tonite. If you just want something for you to go to the bathroom then several doses of the sodium ascorbate form of vitamin C will certainly do the trick and give you a much needed high dose of vitamin C and will also be quite safe. Of course if you actually do have appendicitis you should see your doc too. Liver and gallbladder flushes are a bad idea for candida folks. If you are really in need of a liver/gall flush then getting the cadida cleared up first will make for a much safer and more effective flush. Flushing WITH candida will just increase your toxin load.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Jeanne, I sometimes get a pain in my lower left abdomen. I believe it's caused by an outpocketing of my intestines - the word for that escapes me at the moment. Normally it only hurts when I'm constipated. As a matter of fact, it's often the first indication of constipation. I've been told that this little pocket is a great hiding place for candida. bbc - (who is currently suffering big brain fog and sleepiness from something mysterious hiding in her lunch) At 03:12 PM 5/27/2004, you wrote: >If candida sufferers can't do a gall bladder flush with apple >juice......what else could they use?

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 Thanks for the input.....I seem to only get that when I have constipation too. It makes sense, as I remember the time I had to go in for a scan they found nothing and I had just come off of 30 days of Levaquin. So what do you do for it? Did you get a lot of gas and belching too? So what do you think the mysterious compenant was? Sugar or some kind of preservative?

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Can't help with the Benadryl...I've never taken any Benadryl. But have a suggestion for metal mouth. In health food stores they sell a Xylitol gum and mints (see files section for info on xylitol). Starbucks carries a cinnamin and a peppermint gum that uses xyltol...their other gums do not. The original Dentyne gum also contains xylitol. 2 questions I have metal mouth really bad. Could this be related to treatments?

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Dry mouth and that metal taste is a common side effect of treatment. Talk to your dentist about the dry mouth, it can make cavities worse, isn't good for the health of your gums and teeth, as you need the saliva to fight bacteria. Just drinking more water won't help with that. If you are not taking any other medications except the interferon and ribavirin, there shouldn't be a problem with benadryl. However, the problem comes when people mix meds that contain other antihistimines (OTC sleep meds, cold meds, etc), antihistimine prescription meds like Zyrtec or Allegra, or mix with meds that don't work with antihistimines. Best thing to do is consult your doc if you are on other medication. Usually just reading the meds fine print will tell you all you need to know. What other meds do you take? Have you ever taken Benadryl before? Alley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Yes, the 'metal mouth' is due to treatment. Not much you can really do - brush your teeth often, mints, etc. Yes, you can take Benedryl. It is often prescribed by doctors to help with sleep while on treatment. It is the ingrediant in Tylenol PM that makes you drowsy. Buy generic and save money! You would have to check with your doctor on the dose though. I think standard is 25mg, but I know it is prescribed at higher amounts to help with sleep during treatment. C --- tammster62 <t1d1r1d1@...> wrote: > I have metal mouth really bad.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Yes I have taken it with no problems. I am on the pegasys, copeg, neupogen, eupogen, and celebrex. I just took a child's dosage. I just want to get little sleepy. I get tired, but just cannot sleep. I am going to have to call my doc tomorrow and ask him for something for pain. I cannot hardly use my hands anymore. It was a REAL trick getting the child prove lid off of the antihistamine LOLOL. Oh, and just a reminder...I also have rheumatiod arthritis, which is made worse by the treatments from what I understand It seems to have settled in my knees and hands...but to every cloud there is a silver lining...it is NOT in my feet. That would be horrible. Anyway, thanks for listening. <><TammieD><> ps. Only 16 more shots until they test to see if this is working. 2 months down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have you ever taken Benadryl before? > > Alley > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
