Hi Jeanette. Welcome to our group. You don't " have to " buy all

organic in order to get well; just make sure your meats and veggies

are not irradiated, and that you spend your money on cod liver oil,

coconut oil and other supplements. Hopefully you can find cheaper

sources, or go in with someone else to buy them in bulk so they are

cheaper for you.

The best in health, Bee

Jeanette,

I am in a similar position, though a young mum on my husband's income. I figure,

I'm just going to do the best I can. I can't afford organic eggs either, but I

advertised locally for raw milk (for my boys) and the lady had eggs too - not

organic as such, but at least they grub in the paddock. I pray over everything

else! Thankfully in NZ we don't have barn raised beef, so I'll try eat more of

that than chicken or pig.

The levels required of the Vitamins gave me a headache when trying to find good

brands, $1 a tablet at 4 a day for only 1 of the vitamins would definitely add

up! I'm starting with cod liver oil, and I've bought coconut oil bulk using some

savings,and then I will see how I go. I'm using what I hope is Nutritional Yeast

Flakes, (called savoury flakes here) and will use eggs shells as calcium. Oh and

I got good salt. That's me for now, and I'll just focus on eating as well as I

can and having my oils, and get anything else as I am able down the track. I

figure even if I'm missing some vitamins for a while, at least I'm not feeding

the beast in me so much, and limiting my symptoms.

I hope that helps you somehow. I know my energy levels are hugely affected by

what I eat, particularly dairy and gluten foods, and of course sugar, which

normally is combined with the first two in my case! So even if you just try to

stick mainly to the food list, chances are you will notice a difference.

Thanks Katrina and Bee.

I am glad you mentioned the Savoury Flakes. I did get some of those and wondered

if they were the right ones.. I was sure I had read a comment on them earlier,

but couldn't find anything on searching the files, messages or website. I have

always used good salt, love butter, and I am enjoying the sauerkraut. I often

used to buy that, but I am, sure what I make myself now is much better for me.

Anyway I will carry on as I am, getting what I can, when I can and avoid the bad

things.

It is hard to get info on supermarket items these days. Not buying imports might

avoid the irridation.

Our local supermarket doesn't even name varieites any more, cabbage is just

'green' or 'red'.

Ghee seems to have disappeared from the shelves everywhere and I would rather

buy it than make it.

Growing a few things  helps.

Before too long I'll have a crop of chokos. Not on Bee's list, but looking

these veges up I see they are often called 'chayote' in the US. Perhaps these

are no good for candida sufferers, but I have always valued them,

particularly as I can pick them from the vine as I want them.

It's illegal to sell raw milk here, but some health shops do have it labelled

'Cleopatra's Bath'. It's up to the buyer what they do with it.

Regards,

Jeanette

+++Hi Jeanette. I hadn't heard of Savoury Flakes before so I looked

them up. Be cautious about what kind you buy since it appears they

can be pasteurized and contain salt (table salt), otherwise they

appears to be the same as nutritional yeast flakes. Here in Canada

they aren't pasteurized and don't contain salt.

I have always used good salt, love butter, and I am enjoying the

sauerkraut. I often used to buy that, but I am, sure what I make

myself now is much better for me.

+++Ensure your salt is an ocean sea salt, not just sea salt. That's

great you are enjoying butter and sauerkraut. There is a great

recipe for it on my website.

> Anyway I will carry on as I am, getting what I can, when I can and

avoid the bad things. It is hard to get info on supermarket items

these days. Not buying imports might avoid the irridation.

+++Each country sets their own standards on what kinds of foods can

be irradiated. Here's Australian and New Zealand standards:

http://www.foodstandards.gov.au/foodmatters/foodirradiation.cfm

" To date, in Australia and New Zealand, only herbs and spices, herbal

teas and some tropical fruits have been approved to be irradiated. "

So don't be concerned about meats and vegetables. "

+++They are a member of the squash family, so they may contain too

many carbs/sugars; maybe you can find out how many carbs they

contain: take the carbs minus the fibres to get the correct amount.

, are you sure their coconut oil is unrefined, undeoderized,

unbleached and expeller or cold pressed? I couldn't find it on their

website.
