Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 > > Many of us have a combination of health issues and treatment (supplements, dosage, procedure) is confusing. I have done tons of research and have pages of information - still confused, mainly about order of treatment. Too many of us are on a limited budget and taking supplements before the body can fully utilize them seems like a waste. TK--- of course some of the supplement is not going to be utilized but some will also be absorbed and if you are deficient it can help - up to you. > > Question: > With Malabsorption aren't most supplements (and cost) being wasted? TK--- some is, some isn't Candida can't be fully cleared up until metals are out, yet Candida exasperates irritable bowel/malabsorption....So what is the best approach and with what supplements? TK--- please clarify - approach to what ? Candida or malabsorbtion [or both] > > So for those of us whose vicious cycle includes.. > Toxicity (Mercury, Arsenic, Lead) - Candida - Adrenal stress - Irritable Bowel/Malabsorption > With this combination of ailments anxiety, brain fog and sleep deprivation or almost a given. TK--- I would agree > > Proposed Treatment Program - > Limited, to no, sugar, gluten, caffeine, alcohol > Adrenals need support before and during chelating. Adrenal Cortex Extract (100mg/2x day) TK-- cortef, hydrocortisone > Digestion: HCL (Betaine) w/ Pepsin (650mg per capsule-2 w/ each meal), Digestive enzymes (2x what is recommend on the bottle), Probiotics > Leaky gut: glutamine TK-- there are some others to be considered also > Candida- Supposed to be treated (diet) at the same time as mercury/lead/arsenic but will not be resolved until toxic metals out of the body. DMSA and ALA make Candida worse TK--- for many, not all , so it seems like trying to really control Candida (Oil of Oregano, Pau d' Arco, Nystatin, etc.) is a waste of money until toxic levels are lowered. TK--- it isn't as it can help tremendously to control the side effects which can be confused as Hg side effects - both are neurotoxic > Chelation > > So, is all this supposed to go on at the same time? TK--- sometimes it is necessary, depends on the individual and what is wrong If you still have Candida aren't probiotics and digestive enzymes being wasted? TK--- no > > Jim Ann > > > ______________________________________________________________________ ______________ > Be a better friend, newshound, and > know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.

I disagree. I think it's well worth taking steps to improve gut health, including keeping runaway yeast at bay. Quote
