Egg Drink

[Guest guest]

Hi

No, you are definitely not losing your mind! Candida is a real thing

and many of us have the same symptoms as you do. It's just that the

medical community wants to pass these symptoms off as 'normal' since

they have no other explanation for them - they don't fit into their

nice little boxes that the pharmaceutical industry has set out.

About the egg drink... Yes, you are getting bloating because the

coconut oil, butter and eggs are all antifungal. You are just

starting on this program, so remember to start slowly. More is *not*

better when it comes to natural health. If you over-do things and go

too quickly, your body won't know what to do and shut down the healing

process, so you don't want to do that. Just take it nice and slowly.

Take care,

something but I was so surprised when it happened in such a short time

coconut oil reacting with the candida? <snip>

Hi just wanted to let you know that *severe* bloating is the

story of my life... You are not alone my dear.

I keep thinking on how to *invent* a valve one could install somewhere

on the abdomen so it could be opened as often as needed and all the

stubborn gas would just come out.. :)

and it's replaced my snacks but I feel I'm gonna get sick of it quick and I was

gagging last time. I'm putting like 2-3 tablespoons of butter and 2-3

tablespoons of coconut oil and when it's done, all that fat rises to the top and

it kinda grosses me out. Maybe I'm using too much fats. While i've posted, what

do all the good fats do for us to heal us?

+++Hi . Your question about good fats is explained in my main candida

article, which it appears you need to read more carefully: How to Successfully

+++Are you sure you made the drink correctly, adding boiled water last, etc.

The egg drink can tend to separate but the fat wouldn't be noticeable at the top

if it was made right. You need to keep stirring it up if it takes longer for

you to drink it.

Hi ,

Just before Christmas I started having problems taking the egg drink. It would

make me gag, too.

It's not 100% necessary to have the egg drink. People find it easier to get

their fat intake, though. If you don't take the egg drink, make sure you are

still getting enough fat. So, for example, you could have fried eggs with

butter for breakfast, meat and veggies for lunch and the same for dinner. When

you don't take the egg drink, your meals will literally be floating in coconut

oil. This means that your meals will likely need to be served in a bowl with a

spoon! Foods like stews/soup or chili help disguise the amount of oil.

You can also make a smaller portion of egg drink if you like, using just one egg

and 1 Tsbp each of butter and coconut.

......hello ....I stopped taking it too, for a week, just to take a

break..I really prefer my eggs cooked (not too much, I still let them be very

very soft / not hard boiled at all. I eat them with a spoon. It is good to know

that I don't HAVE to take it, even though I liked it in the beginning...

but what about the cinnamon? don't I have to take it since it is antifungal? and

isn't it working together with the eggs? maybe it is not so important?

Thank you for all the help.

Hi Marisa,

You don't have to take Cinnamon. It's not an essential part of the diet and not

something you even have to put in the egg drink if you don't want to. The egg

drink recipe is very easy to alter/manipulate to your own personal taste

preferences.

Hi, there, fellow Candida sufferers! I've been a lurker for quite some time

now and just decided to put my toe into the waters! :-) I have printed off

a substantial portion of the files that are contained on the forum; however,

I haven't bumped into the recipe for the egg drink. I am most curious to

try it. Can anyone here point me in the proper direction???

Thanks!

Hi~ AnnMarie,

Just go to healingnaturallybybee.com enter a search for the EGG DRINK. The

search prompt in the upper right corner is very helpful in answering many

questions we may have related to our diet/healing processes. We have much

gratitude and appreciation for Bee and her service to/for all/candida suffers. I

had candida about 4-5 years ago and utilize Bee's suggestions to maintain a

healthy food/supplementary choices.

Divana~

PS: The Egg drink/smoothie is yummie and one of our favorite recipes.

I have been drinking it straight raw eggs, fats, and cold tap water. Guess that

explains why it was all clumped up and all. So I was looking at the mountain

herbs site and I would like to try it with cinnamon and stevia powder and i seen

i can get it from there. if i wanna drink two egg drinks a day to try and get in

my fats, would i need 8 oz bags of each of those or? I don't know where to get

those organic here. first egg drink i had i put regular cinnamon and i can tell

i wouldn't want much of it. just enough to give a lil taste. thanks everyone for

answering my posts. i'm trying to get it all figured out.

+++Hi JDM. It will be extremely filling as you are able to take more butter and

coconut oil. My drink keeps me satisfied from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM. It's the

good fats which satiate your appetite and provide so much good energy - but it

will take time for your body to switch over from running on carbs/sugars to

running on the " good " fats I recommend.

Hi ,

Are you making the Egg Drink according to the recipe using the total amount of

butter and coconut oil as it is listed in the recipe? I ask because many folks

who are new to the program can't handle that much butter and coconut oil without

becoming nauseous or experiencing a lot of debilitating die-off symptoms.

Consequently a new person to the program will often cut back on the amount of

fats in the egg drink to minimize die-off symptoms. When you minimize the fats,

the egg drink is not as " filling. "

Hi Jackie,

It was me (JDM) who asked about the egg drink. Yes, I follow the recipe. I

even add and extra egg yolk. The 2 T of coconut oil and 2 T of butter do not

bother me. Today I even decided to add 4T of ground raw pecans and still it

only carried me about 2 hrs.

I don't know??

I'm wondering if you are accidentally eating any carbohydrates that are NOT

permitted on the program? I say that because after you eat carbohydrates,

insulin is released by the pancreas, which then lowers blood sugar. Which in

turn causes hunger. When your carbs are increased, your hunger is increased.

I mention this because previously one lady in this group was accidentally

consuming *forbidden* carbs without realizing it. She was eating some vegetables

from the grocery store that had been prepared with whey (and dairy is not

permitted on this program). As well, she was making her bone broth the

traditional way, using celery, onions, and carrots (carrots are not permitted on

this program). Eating foods not on Bee's list could be the problem.

Hopefully you are able to eat using the protein-fat-carb ratios that Bee

recommends (unless you are very new to the program and still working up to

getting enough fat into your diet).

For every gram of protein you eat, you should be eating 2.5 to 3.5 times as much

fat. And eating only 80% as many carbs. Carbs should be the least of what you

eat. Ratios are all explained on Bee's website here:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/foods8.php

Are you eating enough fat yet? That would be 6 tbsp of coconut oil per day as

well as the cod liver oil, and the rest of the recommended ratio of good

saturated fat. I've read time and time again that when people eat the

recommended amount of fat, they finally feel satiety and rarely experience

hunger.

Lis

[Guest guest]

JDM,

I just wanted to say, if your ratios are good and you are getting at least the

recommended amount of good fats... and no more than the recommended carbs...

and you are still hungry...

Eat more This is what I do. As in, increase your protein and fat. I easily

eat a pound of meat (covered in melted butter/coconut oil) at one meal. I am

finding that my hunger leves are gradually abating... but I can still put it

away. And I'm a fairly skinny woman

Enjoy, & cheers

> Hello,

> I know you say we shouldn't have more than 3 meals a day, but is the egg drink

considered a meal? I usually eat one for breakfast and one for a snack. Is that

ok? I did search your site and there is one daily plan in which the egg drink is

used as a snack.

+++Hi erika. Yes the egg drink is considered a meal all-in-one if you are able

to tolerate 3 eggs and the fats, which is the complete meal recipe. Some people

have to start with 1 egg or egg yolk and less fats, etc. because eggs, butter,

coconut oil, and cinnamon are antifungal.

It is better not to snack, but to get through the initial stages of this program

it is better to snack on something nutritious like the Egg Drink.

[Guest guest]

Yes, I've been eating a lot more lately now that I'm getting daily diarrhea from

the 6 Tblspns of coconut oil (but it's not bothering me actually. I feel good).

Thank you!

+++Hi . You may have increased your coconut oil too quickly, so you might

try taking less and see if helps your diarrhea.

Hello a.

When I refrigerate the egg drink it tastes even better. Yes, the coconut oil

becomes harder, but not solid. You just shake well (It doesn't stay blended)

your drink and you are ready to enjoy it.

Bee, This is ,

Just want to let you know that the egg drink is the better than chocolate.  I

have not eaten any offending foods since I decided to take the plunge with the

egg drink.  I drink it three times a day (six eggs).  My kids love it also; they

beg me to make it for them; I add a little rapadura for them of course. I have

one quick question though: Am I eating too many eggs?  Also, when I have these

egg drinks I am so full, that I do not feel like eating anything else. 

Sometimes, I am even too full to take my supplements.  To be honest, the egg

drink is better than solid food.  Is that a bad think if I do not eat solid food

and skip supplements once in a while?

Thanks Bee

+++Hi . That's fabulous you like the egg drink so much! I have it every

morning and it is delicious.

Please do not add rapadura to the drink - it's a natural sugar but it feeds

candida big time! Instead use stevia powder - ground up stevia leaf, which is

green.

No it is not possible to eat too many eggs. Look at this man who consumed 25

soft boiled eggs every day:

Amy,

How do you know your son doesn't like " egg " flavor? Maybe he just doesn't like

the newness of the drink. Try fixing them scrambled or eggs, or over-easy cooked

in butter to see what they like. My son's favorite was hard boilde eggs.

During Christmas, You can chill Bee's egg drink and dress it up with nutmeg on

top disguised as egg nog. They'll love it. Come to think of it, maybe they

don't like having a hot drink during summer. Try chilling it, then offering it

as a cool-down drink later in the day. I am surprised that you removed the

butter from their egg drink since I find the butter to be the most delicious

part! Also, remember that " Hunger is the best cook. "

Other things that can be made with the egg drink are custards. Please check

recipes in the group files and on Bee's main site. It is the same nutrition,

disguised as desert.

As for children and their diets, I found it best to fix the same thing for

myself. Sit down with them and eat what they eat. Also, make announcements like

" When we're finished eating we'll go to ... " a place the children love to go or

an activity they love to do. I find they or anyone will eat quickly just to get

to that place or do that activity. I've used this on my children and also on my

own grandmother when she had dimentia. It is even better if this is a daily

habit.

I get the feeling from your letter that the children are holding out for a

favorite food that they know will be offered if they turn down the egg drink.

This is a trap for the parents. It is really best to not offer additional foods

after they turn down their breakfast. Just my personal opinion.

Involving your children in making meals is a good strategy. Let them choose one

meal per day or per week to fix together or if old enough, by themselves. This

way they will know what is allowed and dissallowed and will learn healthy

choices. My son got addicted to sugar very early on but when given choices of

meal preparation he spearheaded fixing healthy meals. I would allow him a

'desert' after meals but he became less and less interested in the desert and

focused more on preparing and eating delicious meals.

Has anyone experimented and found ways to enhance the egg drink for kids?

My kids will only take one sip to appease me, and I feel like if they would just

drink it their hunger would subside and we could get their fat levels up!

I tried omitting the butter, and just to *see* if they would drink it, put a few

drops of Agave (which they did like) but I know that is not acceptable because

of the sugar. Should I just try the agave to get them used to the drink and wean

them off the agave part, or skip the drink all together?

Today I tried mixing a fruit flavored tea with it and they did not like that at

all. (I personally love it mixed with coffee as someone else suggested a few

months back, so that is where I got the idea.)

My son does not like the egg flavor, so I am trying to mask that, and I think it

is not sweet enough for my daughter. They did not seem to like the Stevia.

Hoping someone has a tip.

[Guest guest]

also dont forget you can freeze the egg drink in popsicle molds- this worked

really well for the children in the beginning.

sometimes they have their oil melted in a cup of tea- they like mint tea a lot

with a touch of stevia. They also like 'deviled eggs' and will eat as many as I

will give them (using homemade condiments of course).

HTH,

> Thanks Bee. I am a little confused how as to have the egg drink. Do you add

the egg a teaspoon at a time? I guess I was confused - I thought you had to do

the egg drink the entire 9 days. Can I piggy back pure green juices freshly

made with the broths? Does the boiled water get added after it has cooled down

or is it boiling when you pour it onto the egg? If boiling will this cook the

egg? (I have been on the candida for sometime waivering with an occasional break

down of fruit or a sneak of one bit of wheat or cheese (2 times a week). I

think I just need to go to the full blown version 9-day to really get rid of

things.

> Thank you BEE!

+++Hi. Is your name Judith? No, the egg drink isn't taken the whole 9 days,

since it is simply an example of the kinds of liquid foods you can have.

Start with 1 egg yolk, and less of the other ingredients, i.e. butter, coconut

oil and spices - add more boiled water to make it easier to drink. The water is

boiling when you pour it in, so yes it does cook the egg.

I don't recommend having any kind of green drinks, which I don't have time to

explain.

You can have bone broths, soup, herbal non-decaffeinated tea, Bee's Electrolyte

Drink on the first day, which is totally a liquid diet.

After that add pureed foods.

You are not going to get " rid of things " just by doing the 9-day program. It is

intended to help you get through severe die-off symptoms, and of course it means

you need to be following the program carefully, including foods and all

supplements.

It takes 1 month of natural healing for every year you've been unhealthy, so

that takes time, patience and persistence on the program. During healing your

body will go through many ups and downs because of how the body heals itself.
