Guest guest Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Thanks Ginger!! what a wealth of information! I really appreciate you writing all of this. I will definitely check out those sites and learn more about it. I did not know much about it and had no idea it was so powerful. I'm very happy for you that you survived your Chronic Fatigue nightmare. That's wonderful! very inspiring! -JJ > > From: Ginger Haskins <Ginger@...> > Date: 2004/07/10 Sat AM 10:53:12 CDT > bowel cleanse > Subject: Candida > > The very best product for Candida is Three Lac. You can read about it here. http://www.newlifevitamins.com I don't have anything to do with this company but buy Three Lac from them. It has only been in the US for a short period of time and is getting rave reviews from those of us who have taken it. I also suggest the Oxygen Elements as very important to take if you have Candida. Somewhere on this web site is a " spit test " you can take to determine if or how bad your Candida is. The symptoms are wide and vary from individual to individual. However, please note that Candida can be responsible for a whole realm of problems and was the basis of my Chronic Fatigue. It causes Leaky Gut Syndrome which leads to food allergies too. Anyone that has Fibromyalgia or CFS or a whole range of other autoimmune diseases should be tested for food allergies. The world renowned author of many books on Candida is Dr. G. Cook. He states that the majority of patients suffering from these diseases are responsive to treatment for yeast and Candida. With the Three Lac it is not necessary to go on a strict Candida diet. Here's another Candida page that chronicles a family's struggle with Candida for over 20 years and their success with this new product. http://www.candidafree.net/pages/1/index.htm Please, if you have Fibromyalgia, look into this possibility. The Candida treatment plus eliminating foods I had developed allergies to brought me back to health after being unable to work for eight months. I would also like to point out to everyone that testing for food allergies is very simple. A company by the name of US BioTek Laboratories in Seattle does the test using your blood. I paid $250 for the test and it was the best thing I did for myself. Any doctor can order it but I always highly recommend using an alternative MD, Naturopath or other alternative doctor. They just know more about these types of illnesses and also are more willing to get you well, not just patch you up until the next time. There are numerous web sites with in-depth information on Candida and yeast and there is a lengthy yeast test you can take that is posted on several sites to determine if you are a candidate. It was written by Dr. Cook. If you've ever taken a lot of antibiotics, you probably have an overgrowth of Candida. What the docs don't tell us is that when we take antibiotics, it kills all the good bacteria too and we have to replace it. If we don't, Candida can take over and crowd it out. You can your colon over and over and it won't get rid of Candida. Everyone should check into this. You can have it for many, many years before it becomes a problem for you. I suspect I've had it for about 30 years and that it was a contributing factor to severe PMS. I hope this helps some of you. Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Thanks for the info on the ThreeLac for Candida, Ginger. It sounds great but it's so expensive.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 wow - you've totally sold me on getting rid of them. Yuck. How do you know when you are getting rid of it/them - are the colonies big enough to see? thanks for all of this info! JJ > From: C CG <pixiepie2003@...> > Candida excretes a toxin in its waste product which goes into the bloodstream and can make a person very ill and cause chronic fatigue, headaches, dizziness, aches and pains. It is a parasite that develops colonies. In its extreme stage it can develop into a systemic fungal infection and cause autoimmune diseases. It can do some major damage to vital organs. The colonies grow around the organs and literally suffocate them. A person can develop Leaky Gut Syndrome in which food particles escape into the bloodstream. The body interprets the food as an invader and attacks, hence the autoimmunce disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 ---Hi Car, I too have suffered with " loads of mucous " (often severe sinus inections, no longer smoke!) and it signifies an allergic reaction. It may help you to note what triggers it - maybe after certain foods or contact with any kind of chemicals. I have removed practically everything chemical from my life (at least for the time being). Do not use any commercial cleaning materials, only vinegar and bicarb. Stay away from anything heavily perfumed. Try to locate a " netti pot " if you can. It's a sort of teapot for cleaning out the sinuses. I learned of it in my yoga class. They originate in India where most everybody uses them. The relief has been fantastic. Use only purified water, and most importantly half a teaspoon of salt per litre. I have been advised to keep my intake of omega 3 and 6 oils as high as possible (also butter!) and it seems to be helping - my nails and my hair are improving dramatically (I have been suffering hair loss for about 3 yrs. I too also use linseeds, and find them invaluable - have you tried soaking them for 24 hrs? If you take them 3 times a day put three lots at a time in the fridge and replace them as you use them. They are not wonderful to get down, but in some ways it's easier than the dry seeds. Hope some of this helps Jez In candidiasis , " cellan13 " <cellan13@y...> wrote: > Hi there sticking to this get better diet, thanks Sandy for advice, > have started to use organic flax seed, at last no more senna tablets. > Still really bloated after every meal which is very uncomfortable. > Don't know why but my lymphantic glands are not working properly, so i > have constant fluid in my ears and head, loads of mucas.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Try psyllium husk capsules and probiotics. Psyllium is one of the best bulk fibers you can use. The husk provide a scraping action along the walls of the intestines aiding in the removal of compacted wastes as well as what is currently causing the sluggishness. If all else fails, epsom salt water is well known for it's purgative properties. Just make sure you don't go anywhere until you know the effects have subsided. Ken -- [ ] Candida Is is true that you can see white stuff in a bowel movement that is candida? If I am having trouble with regular BM's, what should I add to my diet?

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 -- Yes, you do sense my despairing fear of the cursed debilitating Candida. What is the longest time one can stay on antibiotics without subjecting oneself to a risk of getting GI fungal infection? I am scared and you do hear me. Well, I want to do the very best for myself to prevent it if it is possible. What about you, why don't you worry about it? How long have you been on Ketek? The literature says patients get it after they stop Ketek. Any thoughts on that?

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 I DO NOT AND NEVER HAVE SUFFERED WITH FATIGUE. I am beginning to wonder if patients who suffer from fatigue have Candida which is causing it rather than LYME. Lida Lida, There can be so many " ifs " with Lyme & all the diseases that go with it, but I can tell you that I never started to suffer from fatigue until I got VERY sick with flu-like symptoms on June 9, 1995, when Lyme hit me. I was incredibly active prior to that! Could yeast be playing a factor, certainly, but my fatigue definitely started w/the onset of Lyme. Also, I feel so badly that you are so scared, we can all relate, but you need to find a good Lyme doc, that is also open to suggestions, & put your faith in him/her. My doc treats the whole body & I honestly don't think he would have even considered putting me on the Ketek if he were so concerned about the yeast; I'm sure he thought the benefits might outweigh the risks. But that is also why he had me start a probiotic from my very first visit (before he even knew I had Lyme) & added Nystatin when I started antibiotics. Find a good Lyme doc & trust in his/her care & that should ease your mind a little. We all expose ourselves to the possibility of yeast infections/issues, but if the abx will give us back some quality of life back, then it is worth the risk. That pretty much goes along with any disease. Hope that might help a little!

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 Jeannie -- Thank you for your reply with your concern I am in good hands of a good LLMD. It was my ID MD who gave me her name but stressed he did not agree with her approach. He made a remark that there is a whole industry out there treating Lyme in a way he doesn't beleive in. My LLMD is so busy that I had to be seen by her nurse practitioner for my first visit, who spent an hour going over my medical history of chronic pain and my recent acute Lyme infection. She spent another half an hour examining me. After breifly consulting with her doctor she gave me two abx prescribtions , one for Ketek and one for Amoxyccilin. 11 ampules of blood were drawn to test for many things including all co-infections. My IgM keeps coming back strongly positive for Lyme inspite of all the treatment I received since September for the acute Lyme diagnosis. I am starting both abx today and will see the doctor Jan 18. I will keep you all posted how I am doing and many thanks again for all your kind suppport and information.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 I agree with Jeannie. Lyme is worse than any yeast infection I've ever had. I've been fatigued for over 5 years and it is the most unrelenting of my symptoms. I had it before I started abx and I have it now even though I'm taking 200 mg Diflucan daily. I wouldn't be endangering my liver with Diflucan or my sight with hydroxychloroquine (which I'm not on now) or courting trouble with any of the other drugs I've taken if Lyme weren't making my life miserable.

I was incredibly active prior to that! Me too! I had been getting gradually more fatigued, could still do a full days work , up at 5a, feed, work 8+hrs, come home, train for another 4-5 hrs and go to bed at 11p, did that pretty much 7 days a week. I would sleep though whenever I got still, would all but pass out. The bad fatigue hit literally in one day. Day before I had biked about 10 miles, next day couldnt make it down the driveway. Fatigue still is bad, but I have good days. Dont we all? *-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was interesting what you said about how much is active infection versus left over damage. That is my biggest question and how to treat either way. More energy and less pain, please.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hi Deb, I have both of the symptoms you mentioned. The rectal itching is awful! It gradually got better for me on this diet and only returned the one time I cheated and the time I took antibiotics. So make sure you avoid both of those things. I still get really deep ear itchiness when I get colds, like right now. Coconut oil works wonders. Just melt the coconut oil (not hot, just melted) and drip it in your ear. I use my son's nasal aspirator for this but a dropper would work fine. Usually I only need to do this once and the problem is gone. Sometimes I need to repeat it once or twice more to get rid of the itch and discomfort depending on how severe it is and how long I've put off the coconut oil. I use the virgin coconut oil for this as it's one place I don't mind the coconut scent/taste (I use expeller pressed for cooking).

The most important thing for you is my diet plus supplements! Nutrition is the only thing that will help. Do start on vitamin C right away along with vitamin E, B vitamins and niacin (vitamin C, vitamin E and niacin oxygenate the cells and cancer cannot survive with oxygen). ==>The blood type diet is not valid; see this article: http://www.westonaprice.org/bookreviews/eat_right.html ==>Tamoxifen is a drug that is intended to lower estrogen because the medical field believes it causes breast cancer. But do realize it is a drug so it also depresses your immune system. It's up to you whether to continue on it, but don't stop it suddenly, only gradually decrease it. Your body does not get cancer from a lack of drugs. It gets cancer from a lack of nutrients and from toxins. ==>The good nature-made fats on my diet are extremely important for your health which you will learn about by reading my article. So please do read and study first and then start on the diet one step at a time. Get back to us with questions after.
