Hi !

How did you find out you had candidiasis?.

Candidiasis is an systemic yeast infection and it will rapidly infect every

mucus membrane in your body causing 'too many to list' symptoms.

Candidiasis can cause all the symptoms you are experiencing because Candida

Albicans gives off the deadly toxin Mycelex.

Your body will stop all immune work except fighting the Mycelex overload so you

become allergic and negatively responsive to everything in the world.

Your body is dying and fighting it to the max....

When I had candidasis it took 18 months to get rid of it by a very rigid diet,

taking Diflucan, probiotics, papaya enzymes, and keeping my body hydrated with

4-5 qts water a day. I put on 20 pounds in a month but my clothes were loose and

my skin glowed with health..

Today it is easier. First do a full intestinal cleanse, drink colloidal silver

daily, eat 4 tbls coconut oil daily, drink 4 to 5 quarts of distilled water

daily, drink homemade cabbage juice daily, and eating no sugars nor starches

will kick start your body into healing.

The herxheimer effect is severe in this cure because of the deadliness of the

yeast/toxin kill off.

A very good 2 part intestinal cleanse can be made at home from a recipe from the

files on Herbal Remedies group or purchased thru his on line store:

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to this group, I've been reading the messages for

about two weeks now and I thought I'd introduce myself and ask some

questions. My son is almost 5 and is apraxic, no speech at two, has

been recieving speech therapy and OT and PT and play therapy and has

come a long way. He has motor planning issues that tend to go along

with apraxia as well.

He is also lactose intolerant and has a peanut allergy and seasonal

allergies.

Until I joined this list, I never realized the lactose intolerance

and the apraxia could be related. He also tested slighted positive

for a milk allergy on bloodwork, but not on a skin scratch test. He

never had a " typical " allergic reaction to milk. He does have eczema

also. We give him Lactaid milk currently and he seems to do well on

it. We used to have him off of all dairy but have slowly

reintroduced cheese and ice cream and he seems OK. What are your

opinions? Should I take him back off of dairy? Is the lactaid milk

OK, or should he be off of all milk? He's never seen a GI, only

diagnosed with the lactose intolerance through trial and error

between myself and my pediatrician. I'm very interested in all of

your opinions.

Thanks in advance,

Ellen

Ellen, eczema is very often caused by milk problems. Couple that with his

" slight positive " allergy result and neurological problems, I would definitely

take him off the milk. Lactaid milk is just regular milk where the sugar -

lactose - has already been broken down. Even if your son is " only " lactose

intolerant, that is a good indicator something is wrong. It means he is missing

essential enzymes necessary to properly break down food. This means he could

also have an inability to break down the proteins in milk. This would not show

up as an allergy, but it would still be milk intolerance or sensitivity.

Believe me, I (and many others on this board) have gone this route. My son

was also " lactose intolerant. " To make a long story short, we are now GFCF.

Ditch the milk. The transition might be a bit rough but so worth it. A lack

of milk will not hurt your child, but keeping him on it might. It would be so

much better to be safe than (like many of us) sorry.

From our experience it was not a slam dunk milk allergic reaction that

I picked up right away and we have no medical confirmation. What I do

know is this:

1) yogurt gave yellow diarrhea but that was when he ate a lot.

2) All milk products made the poop yello and stool was loose with milk

but he ate a lot of pureed stuff so I am not sure what the deal is

3) Cheese, too much of it, constipates him

More important was that the drooling and spaciness left. That was

telling. In the end he may just have a sensitivity and may go back on

but not soon for us. This stuff is drastic so play around with it is

what I say.

Please note that what was also telling was, with near perfect hearing he

seemed not to get what we were saying. Then there was the constant fluid

with near perfect hearing. I believe that was the milk high.

Above is for son.

Daughter is way more animated than him, spoke early, etc. She is grade

level (as far as preschool) but does not do great with interactive

conversation. She is improving and at first I thought it was age. I put

her on GFCF to see what it did to her. It definitely calmed her down and

she was more cooperatuive. The interactive conversation had improved

before that but kept on so I can't say for sure. She has that yogurt

diarrhea deal going on and very constpated with any cheese. She still

has similar poop, that was looser before. GI says stool does not leave

her quick enough and recommended fibersure.

One thing that is troubling about daughter lately is that she is

regressing with some speech. She seems to add " ed " to things (she dided

it) whereas before her speech was near perfect. My fear is that she

merely has intolerances and this dietary change is too extreme.

Lastly, the labs indicated high platelet counts consistent with

inflammation and the celiac panel turmed up some strange #s. Since milk

allergies are often related to celiac it may be in order. More testing

and food diary stuff is necessary. Plus, I had picky eaters who were

tall and thin for whatever that is worth.

For us we knew we had to reduce the milk simply because there was too

much of it in their diet as we used it as a substitute for stuff they

refused to eat. Coming off was drastic but they did not miss it. I'll be

playing with this for a while.

Not an easy call for any of us.

Is he on fish oil? My son had severe eczema and when we started

supplements it cleared up and we haven't had a problem since.

He had been on coromega and then we stopped after a while. His eczema is always

worse in the summer and is flaring up now. I'll put him back on the coromega

and see what happens. The allergist thinks it's from sweating. I wonder if

it's from his grass allergy since it start when he is in shorts. He also is

sensitive to many sunblocks.

We use the prescription cream elocon which is a steroid on it. It clears it up

pretty quickly.

Thanks,

Ellen

Thanks Kim and Liz for your feedback.

Do you think I'll see a difference quickly if I take him off milk?, or will I

have to wait a while?

I feel like it's worth a try if it will help him, why not.

Thanks,

Ellen

You will see a difference within a couple of weeks if you take him off all

things casein. He's got to get all of it out of his system and it might even

take 3 weeks. I did not do that initially and so it took us much longer to

really be sure. I am completely relieved to have done this.

Some people have reported good results from the Stetzer filters,

others have felt that they made their problems worse and returned

the filters.

I had one outlet which had unusually high readings on the Stetzer

meter. Amazingly enough, my simply replacing the outlet with a

$2 outlet from Home Depot lowered the readings and solved the

problem! (a $2 outlet is considered " high-end " , I think the

outlet that was there originally was one of the 25 cent ones).

Certainly if nobody has any problems in the next-door neighbors

house but has terrible problems in that house, then I think I'd

agree with your father. But finding the problem and fixing

it may be difficult.

Also, if there are any wireless devices in the house (wireless

phones, internet, etc.), replacing them with wired versions

might be helpful.

P.S. have you at least gone around the house and checked that

all the outlets are wired correctly? (you can get an outlet

tester for less than $10).

Also, note that one bad transformer on one piece of electronics

can cause a lot of problems. Using a Stetzer meter and experimenting

with unplugging things could find something like that. I think

I read about someone who got ES simply because of a bad

power supply on their modem...
