Will the baking soda cause a severe die-off reaction?

[Guest guest]

Been on the diet for about 2 weeks, but have not thought I was far

along enough yet to do any VCO, although I did a tsp yesterday.

Yesterday most pain and illness seemed to originate from the stomach,

so I decided to do the baking soda treatment.........did it 3 times,

including last night.....some pau d arco tea this morning and the

illness is now unbearable, very weak and ache all over.

Recent blood work tests from 2 weeks ago is fine......of course.

A doctor who does treat this condition some, that I seen in the past,

suggested I could use Alka-seltzer Gold to help with the

die-off.....she says it is very akalizing......any thoughts?

I am at my wits end to cope and get the strength to manage what I need

to do to get myself on my feet and keep on trudging through this.

Mainly muscle weakness and very fluish without a fever.

+++Hi Penny. Don't overdo taking baking soda because it contains a lot

of sodium which can throw off mineral balances and cause aches and

pains. Take plenty of ocean sea salt today to offset the mineral

imbalance and ensure you take calcium and magnesium per my article.

Also some people have to be on the diet and supplements longer before

they can tolerate coconut oil; next time try 1/2 teaspoon and ensure

you take it with a full meal containing protein and veggies.

Pau D'arco is also antifungal so that's why it created more die-off

symptoms for you. When you get an upset stomach chew on raw ginger or

drink ginger tea; the recipe is on my website.

+++You do not need to alkalize your body like a lot of doctors

believe. See these articles about acidity/alkalinity which is a non-

issue when it comes to health:

Many people misunderstand acidity too: Feeling acidic is actually

being toxic.

There are many things you can do for die-off symptoms. I suggest you

do the 9-day program, which will help with die-off and your digestion:

+++Sorry you are feeling so bad. I understand because of what I went

through when I did the candida program over 20 years ago. At one point

I was only able to eat 9 foods in the whole world. You can read my

story on my website: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/bee.php

Hang in there. Often candida sufferers feel worse before they get

better because of their high toxic overload. It will gradually

improve. Let me know how you do on the 9-day program. Also ensure you

are taking betaine hydrochloric acid:
