finally learning what my diet should be from this site. Thank goodness.

Now I'm worried because it seems I've read somewhere that glycerine is a sugar.

True??

+++Hi Carole. Yes, throw your glycerin laced nut balls in the garbage. Also

nuts must be properly prepared to make them fit to eat - see this article:

What do you mean LAST 'hard core " detox, since I don't recommend any kind of

serious detox programs or products, since they cause the body to become flooded

with toxins too fast, which doesn't help you get healthier, and it is

unnecessary.

The only way candida is cured is by building up your immune system so it becomes

strong enough to " make " candida (and any other bugs) " change back " into the

friendly organism they are supposed to be in the body.

This is mainly done with " proper nutrients " (my diet plus supplements), which

provide the body with what it needs to heal itself naturally.

Also my high " good " fats program detoxifies the body naturally, and even gets

rid of heavy metals. But it is the longer slow way, which doesn't overwhelm the

body with too many toxins at one time.

That takes time, patient and persistence on the program. Natural healing takes

1 month for every year you've been unwell, and for most people nowadays that is

since before they were born.

I suggest you read:

> Thanks Bee,

> Into the garbage they go!

> By 'hard core' I do mean getting quite sick. I was actually throwing up Sunday

morning.

> I did this many times before by using oregano oil...but not in a healthy

way... I just didn't know any better.  I was then just trying to figure it out

all on my own.  Last week I broke down and ate popcorn which bothered me then I

made salads with balsamic vinegar which seemed to really put me in bad shape I

even get lovely fungal growths on my skin.  Other wise I haven't had any

candida food in my diet for months.  All I had to do was stop the vinegar

salads and two days later I was sick...(it was quick, though, just a couple of

hours)

> I have finally found a naturopath that gets it and is helping me. A couple of

immune sytem supporting herbals and helping me avoid foods that I have developed

a sensitivity to (thank you leaky gut syndrome). I've been on a Traditional diet

for years which helped to some degree so I knew my problem was diet.  I have

been eating a Primal diet for the last couple of months.

> I also find that all the research you have done is amazingly helpful in

knowing what to eat AND that I can trust what you say.....there is a lot of junk

out there (!) which can make finding ones' way to the truth very confusing.

> So I've eaten primal for a couple of months now and having just recently found

your site. I've restricted myself from the few candida suspicous foods I was

still eating.  I have allowed myself the 'sin' of nut butters. Hazelnut,

macadamia, and yes the dreaded irradiated almond. :-)  They don't seem to

bother me and I try to eat them in moderate snack amounts.  I do have lot of

nuts on hand that have been soaked and dried properly.

> Thank you so much for all your research and sharing it!  You will be a big

part of my return to health and living life again!

> I felt amazingly better eating primal but your knowledge will fine tune my

diet to perfection.

> Thank you!
