Severe indigestion from homemade sodium ascorbate

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I'm trying to do a vitamin c flush today because i'm feeling pretty

terrible, assuming it's die-off. However, i've had only two lots of

the 1tsp of ascorbic acid and bicarb of soda and i'm getting severe

indigestion. A lot of wind from both directions, and pain and

bloating. What is this? I thought bicarb of soda was supposed to ease

indigestion?

==>Matt, bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) also kills off candida, so

you are correct that you are getting die-off symptoms. Maybe wait

until later to do the Vitamin C flush and stay with the diet plus

supplements awhile longer before trying again.

Thanks Bee. I wondered though – if I was able to

tolerate it, even though it was uncomfortable, would

you advise going through it on occasion or waiting

until later so the symptoms aren’t so bad? Obviously I

can’t do it on a work day, but on the weekend I could

suffer through some uncomfortable die-off if it means

I’ll heal quicker. I also know the best way to do it

is to boost the immune system, which I will continue

to do (this diet will be a lifestyle change for me),

but surely healing will occur quicker if there is less

Candida, right?

==>Hi Matt. No, healing does not occur quicker if there is less

candida. I've seen this time and time again with many people, and

those who take lots of antifungals or do cleanses, etc. do not cure

candida any quicker. One for one it takes 1 month of natural healing

for every year you've been unhealthy.
