Re: Ann Boroch's Book on Healing MS--Nystatin

[Guest guest]

,

If you go to Vitacost.com and do a search for candida, it will show

you several supplements that can help control candida. I use the NSI

Candida Yeast management (enzymes), and Nutrition Now Yeast defense

(herbs), and the NSI Probiotic 15-35

You can also use colloidal silver, the zapper.

I was recently told about syclovir (http://www.syclovir.com/). I

have not tried it yet because it should not be taken during

pregnancy. Their website has a LOT of info about candida.

Syclovir caught my attention because not only does it kill candida,

it also absorbs, and eliminates toxins.

Here is info about syclovir:

" What is Syclovir made from? There are over 10,000 varieties of

plankton. Syclovir is made from an unusual food-grade Plankton. The

silica of this plankton is uniquely treated and processed to help us

have healthy support for our immune system. It is not a poison or

toxin. The microscopic silica in the product is part of the plankton.

The Plankton is processed for a specific purpose and in a unique way.

Then it is combined with a little sugar from sugar cane and some

kosher distilled vinegar for Candida's last meal and the blend of

Syclovir is completed. Syclovir Picks Up Nicotine, Toxins &

Chemicals - Perhaps able to absorb up to 1000 times its own weight in

toxins, Syclovir is excellent at helping to clean up the blood and

cells. "

So there are many natural supplements that kill candida to chose

from.

The enzyme yeast killers like Candex, and NSI Candida Yeast Management

break down (digest) the yeast cell walls to kill it, which they claim

prevents a die-off reaction. (http://www.pureessencelabs.com/candex.php)

I have not expereinced a die-off reaction with either of these, and I

started out taking the maximum recommended amount.

I haven't tried syclovir yet, so I don't know anything about syclovir,

except what it says on the website, but since the plankton not only

kills the yeast, but also absorbs toxins, should be able to absorb even

the micotoxins that are released as the candida die, resulting in less

of a die-off reaction, if any reaction at all.

Of course, with all yeast killing products, if the best bet is to stat

of slow, to minimize any kind of reaction.

If anyone decides to try Syclovir, be sure to let us know how it goes.

yeast, but don't beleive it when they claim that their product doesn't

cause a " die off " effect. If it kills the fungus (thats what candida

is) it will release Mico toxins that cause a " Herx " reaction.

Hi Rich,

I know you asked a simple question, but sometimes I get a bit long

winded.

I have/had PCOS, which I believe is caused by candida overgrowth. My

PCOS symptoms were infertility, irregular monthly cycles (every 40

days), obesity, sugar highs and lows (probably d/t IR), and high

cholesterol.

After I took yeast killing treatments, my monthly cycle became

regular (every 28 days) and then I finally became PG after trying for

3 years. My other PCOS symptoms also improved.

It had to be a candida problem, since the ONLY thing that I was

taking were treatments that kill candida. I took nothing else. I

hadn't been Dx with MS at the time.

After that baby was born, I stopped the candida supplements. And

slowly the PCOS symptoms started to return. Then I had some dental

work done Dec 05; they did a cleaning on my teeth full of amalgam

fillings. I started trying for another baby, but had 2 unsuccessful

cycles. In the middle of those, I had a filling placed (Jan 06). I

made sure to ask for a white, mercury free filling, but didn't

realize that it was in the same tooth as an existing mercury

filling. I am sure tons of mercury leaked out during the drilling

process. That month, my cycle came on day 35 instead of day 28. I

knew the yeast was back in full force. I started the candida

treatments right away, and my next cycle came on day 28.

Then 2 months later, my MS symptoms started. 3 months later, I had

all my amalgams removed, and started heavy metal chelation. I

continued to take the candida products, until I started the herbal

chelation supplement. I don't remember exactly if I just stopped, or

slowed down, and then stopped. But I was just taking so many things,

and I wasn't trying to get PG anymore, so I eventually stopped it all

together. I wasn't fully aware of the mercury/yeast connection at

the time. But then I started getting those itchy yeast rashes in the

moist places. And then the bells went off in my head, and I

remembered that I heard about yeast overgrowing during heavy metal

detox. I used the zapper, and the yeast rashes dissapeared, so I

decided to used the zapper for candida control instead of supplements.

Then in Feb, I decided it was time to stop the mercury chelation

supplements, so we could have a baby before the end of the year. I

started taking the candida supplements again. We were successful in

that first month we started trying. WooHoo. Baby is due in 3

weeks. I have continued to take the enzyme yeast supplement, and

probiotics, but then got a kidney infection last month. So I had to

be put on strong antibiotics. The yeast came back: I had the

itching, cold and warm sensations started in my right leg, and

heartburn, UGH the heartburn, and I am retaining water; my legs are

swollen with pitting edema. I continued the enzymes, but it just

wasn't keeping up. So I got an Rx for diflucan. I did experience a

mild die off reaction, the heartburn got worse before it got better.

The warm and cold sensations in my leg are still there, but not too

bothersome. I am sure it was mild because I was also taking the

enzyme yeast fighters.

They want me to continue the antibiotics until I deliver this baby,

to prevent another kidney infection, but I am so tired of the yeast.

I am tired of the heartburn, the itching, the water retention, plus

yeast messes up the hormones, and prevents uterine contractions. I

really want to go into labor soon, and I need this uterus to start

contracting. I was having a ton of Braxton Hicks contractions before

the antibiotics, but have not felt many since. So I stopped the

antibiotics a few days ago, and finally the heartburn is gone, the

edema has decreased, and I have started getting some Braxton Hicks

contractions again.

Sorry to get a bit long winded, just wanted to be sure to give you a

complete answer to your question.

Hi Dudley,

you are always hunitng for bargains for supplements , but the

Syclovir product at Amazon actually sells for MORE than the Syclovir

sold from the syclovir.com site.

http://www.worldhealthmall.com/product_p/sy.htm

Maybe it is a different size tub. I am not sure how much is in either

container. It would be good for the person thinking about a purchase

to ask the venders about the size of their container of syclovir.

Hi Cara,

Braxton's Hixs contractions are often caused by dehydration - as is the edema

you are taking about.?

When we are in the process of growing a life, our bodies are more susceptible to

yeast infections

since we are actually in a reduced immune system state.? This reduced immune

state is also one of the

reasons many women with MS feel better when they are pregnant and tend to have

fewer relapses.

If you decide to breastfeed after delivery there are some advantages to you and

baby in respect to MS.

One is that it reduces your babies chances of contracting MS.? Another is that

you will not go through the

" make up for time " phase that MSers do after delivery (ie they tend to have all

the relapses they missed

while pregnant with in about the first 6 months after delivery)? Breastfeeding

seems to give the mother

a surf board to ride the wave out on (so to speak) and simply return to her

" normal " schedule of relapses.

(please excuse the dire vocabulary - this research was done by MDs)

OK - I now can't stop myself.? Breastfeeding has SO many advantages for you and

baby, along with being

just what nature and baby asked for, I do hope you consider it carefully.?? If

you do have any questions? or

concerns I would be pleased to help talk you through them (sort of? my hobby).

Helmi

Blessings of the season!
