Guest guest Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Three Lac was a god send for me. I could not tolerate many of the natural things that I tried (not die off) and I ended up taking the antifungal drug Fungalin for a year! I'm totally against drugs but I resorted to it in the end while I was having some neutralising injections for foods to stop the constant pain and bubbling in my gut. My end points kept changing unless I could get my gut under control. I could not stop the drug as every time I did my gut would just explode again. Then Three lac became available here in the UK. It was like a miracle as it allowed me to get off fungalin. But now I can't get off Three Lac! I have to take 3 sachets a day to keep the fermentation down in spite of everything else I do. I was also taking Energetics Flora Synergy which seemed to help too. So Dirk I for one do not believe its a waste of money although I would be glad to find something less expensive. > > > > I have noticed some anti-Threelac literature on the website.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Hi, Don't know if it is any help to you, but when I was taking biocysteine capsules I used to get quite bad kidney pains. I mentioned it to my practitioner at the time and he thought it was good - that the biocysteine must be working to cause this problem. In any case, it wasn't so bad that I couldn't keep taking the capsules. But when I became more ill in the last two years following insecticise poisoning, I found that every time I took the capsules I would get stiffness all over and decided that for the moment at least, they aren't for me. I have enough to contend with already! As far as Threelac goes, it really didn't help me much- and I've read very mixed reports about it. I would be wary of it if I were you. There are other anti-candida products with better reputations! Best wishes, Jane --- jzealey <jzealey@...> wrote: > Hi everyone, > Both my father and I have candidiasis.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 First off, welcome! There is a file in thr group's files called " Threelac Is Not Recommended " . Let me know if you have trouble finding it. Several people in the group have been using it, with varying results, I believe. The biggest problem with it is the claim that you can use it without changing your diet. This is false. The first thing you are going to have to do is go on Bee's diet in order to make any headway against candida. Other antifungals (oil of oregano, coconut oil, oil of cloves, etc.) are far cheaper than Threelac. Please read as many of the files as you can and feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 Having Cured myself of candida yeast let me offer you this advise. Pay less attention to the various products offered as cures and focus on your diet. NO sugar, easy on the carbs(eat greens only)and take multi-vitamins and maybe an anti-bacterial like grapefruit seed extract. Welcome the die-off as proof your getting better, keep your system clean and be rid of the menace forever. Good Luck, steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 Remember that any of the " medical " groups offering help are businesses, and in business to make money. Cure yourself with diet and use your local health food store for supplements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 I would agree with Steve, but you have to tailor your program to your own body. Mine needed more (healthy) carbs than is usually suggested, and I got rid of my candida by listening to my body. Rotate your antifungals, do colon cleansing, follow the diet closely, do not use water that has chlorine or fluoride in it, use food-combining to give your digestion a break, and use meditation to heal your body. Also, you must heal leaky gut if you have that. Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies. ~Friedrich Nietzsche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I took threelac for about 2 months and had a lot of die off in the beginning then it ended and I began taking other anti fungals. My son is 4 years old and takes one packet every day and no problems. It's an all natural pro-biotic I don't see how it could cause those symptoms. I would feel totally safe taking it. I found it to be a bit expensive though that is why I started other things. a > > Has anyone experienced side affects from Threelac?

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 I got severe die off symptoms, I suppose. I got my regular number 1 symptom, ie allergy. I was working my way up to 5 packs a day of ThreeLac, as it says in the directions, and at some point my nose started to pour. I could literally stand over a bucket and watch my nose pour mucous like a river into the bucket. Also, at some point I got a recurrence of my mild/medium level asthma. Couldn't stand the symptoms so I stopped it. Just couldn't function. There was also the cost issue. Actually the *real issue* was that I didn't know (i) how long the die-off was going to carry on and (ii) if there was any lasting benefit. If I could get some guarantee from heaven that my nose would pour for let's say a week, and then I would have lasting relief from 100% symptoms, or even let's say 50% symptoms, then I could just decide to invest in the cost of the threelac, invest in the discomfort, stay off work, and just lock myself away for a week. Unfortunately, life is not so simple. Not only that, I had a strong feeling it would never finish, and that my body will just generate more Candida to replace that which was being killed. Can't base that on anything, but that was my feeling. Actually, any brand of potent probiotic causes similar symptoms for me. Usually I don't take acidopholous at all, because of this. But just this last Friday I saw in the shop a product I had not tried before, but knew it was supposed to be potent. I suppose I was just curious as to how much Candida I have in me, and how fast I will respond. I decided to buy it. It was Jarrow Dopholous. I took one capsule on Friday afternoon. By Saturday morning there was still no reaction, so I thought that maybe it was a good sign. Then it started... nose started to run + rhythmic sneezing. After a few hours of that I was exhausted. Ruined my Saturday. (Anybody want a 2nd hand box of Jarrow Dopholous minus one capsule...? :-( ) Wish you well. avraham On 9/17/06, ita <jzealey@...> wrote: > > Does anyone know if ThreeLac is simply a probiotic or if it contains > something else that makes it different from the rest?

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 I could not get your e-mail link to work, but I don't think Bee will mind my response here as it really isn't new information. Last summer I was having trouble with constipation and did some research and found Threelac. I did the saliva test that it recommends and that was the first I knew that I had candida. I used Threelac throughout the summer, and it helped my constipation. No other changes were made to my diet at that point. But, if I missed taking it with a meal I was at square one again. So I did more research and found Bee's group. In November I began Bee's recommended diet while still using Threelac a. because I still had some and b. it was still the only thing that really helped me with constipation. I have slowly been phasing it out ever since. I don't think I have had it in over two weeks. Last time I took it was because I did not take Vit C, Magnesium, or digestive enzymes for two days in a row. I now use the diet (first and foremost) along with digestive enzymes, Vit C, and Magnesium (helps w/regularity), eat sauerkraut at least once a day, and have started using coconut oil. The further I get into Bee's diet the less I need Threelac. I still take a probiotic, but it costs a tenth of what Threelac does, with the same results. So, did it work for me? Yes, with certain symptoms AND only when I took it religiously. Is it a long term solution? IMO-No. Bee's diet is a much better (much less $$$) way to go. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any specific questions. http://kelleygate.blogspot.com 8 weeks 5 days. > I am wondering what others can share with me about this product?

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hi Caryn I am ffrom Australia. I ordered threelac from New Zealand (because it hasn't been approved in Australia) in April last year (2006). I took it as per directions for 9 months and guess what, there was absolutely no change whatsoever in my condition. In fact, often times, my candia would flare up even worse. I reckon it did zilch for me. I reckon I did heaps for the threelac people though, I gave them heaps of money for the product over the 9 months. I've only been on Bee's diet for a month and a half and I have noticed changes and healing in that time. My ears are no longer itcy, my vulval irritation seems to be improving, but I still have a little red rash on my face that hasn't budged yet, but it's still such early days. My advice is just leave the threelac alone. Bee's diet is yummy and fun when you get used to it. Regards, cbflpc <cfitz364@...> wrote: I am wondering what others can share with me about this product?
