Weak muscles and twitchng a die-off symptom?

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I am a newbie still reading up, but suspect candida overgrowth based

on my answer to the questionnaire. I have Hashi's and adrenal fatigue

and am working on a program for those.

In the process of converting to high fat diet over past months, I've

consumed lots of extra dairy, including raw kefir..whcih I now see is

a major no-no on the Candida diet. Then I noticed increasing energy

weakness where I'd have periods crashed on the sofa. This is different

from fatigue--which I also experience--but like I have no muscle

strength to even walk.

Over recent days, it's been much worse...I'm housebound with a burning

sensation in my legs and arms and muscle twitching. This has coincided

with my perhaps overly aggressive removal of dairy and grains (because

I've become extremely hypoglycemic). I then added kefir and cream back

in for a day and woke up the next day with what looked like a white

fungal strip at the top of my big toenail. The longstanding wart I

have on the other side was also white and crusty. It all rinsed off in

the bath and I put coconut oil on it. I don't have any other OUTWARD

signs of Candida.

So question is: Have you heard of peope with the burning, muslce

twitching and extreme weakness as a die-off symptom? I'm adding back

in a small amount of brown rice to see if that slows things down as I

continue to increase fat on the diet. Any other suggestions? I

desparately need to be able to walk and take care of my family.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris. Yes, I have seen many people with burning, muscle

twitching and extreme weakness caused by either candida overgrowing

or when it is being killed off. The symptoms are mainly caused by

candida toxins, there are over 79 different kinds.

If you are eating enough " good " fats it is impossible to be

hypoglycemic. I believe you may be mistaking die-off symptoms for

hypoglycemia. There are many articles on my website which will help

you understand about die-off/healing/detoxifying symptoms (all the

same thing really) - see " Die-Off Symptoms "

Sorry Chris. I accidently sent my message before it was completed.

About your Hashimoto's and adrenals; both problems are caused by

candida. So I recommend you concentrate on treating the " cause " and

not the symptoms. I lost my thyroid due to over medication when I

cured my candida. At one point I'm sure my thyroid was starting to

normalize, but because I was taking thyroid meds it went into such a

tizzy that I had Grave's Disease.

The reason candida causes thyroid and adrenal malfunction is because

it causes all cell membranes to become stiff/rigid which means organs

can't function as well and any hormones they produce aren't getting

into rigid/stiff cells. See " Candida Causes Cell Membrane Defects " :

Ensure you read my main article " How to Successfully Overcome

Candida " which is on this menu:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/menu2_8.php

Also see " Curing Candida, How to Get Started on that menu.

Your muscles symptoms are covered in this article on arthritis,

fibromyalgia, etc.:

The best in health, Bee

this program cures them as well.
