Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 This sounds like it could be ascites - which is a complication/symptom of liver disease. It's an accumulation of fluid in the abdomen. your doctor should know that you are having this problem and may need to go to the hospital to have the fluid drained and may put put on medication to " help " with retaining the fluid.

I am gassy sometimes. , I spent ½ a year being bloated every single day – pregnant looking. My stomach would be flat when I got up and by mid-day it would stick out, I had a lower backache, water retention, and was very fatigued. Because I also had endometriosis, painful periods, and other hormonal issues I let my gyno convince me that it was from the endo – although it was daily. I had a hysterectomy which I now regret. After the hyst the menstrual flow and therefore pain was gone, but I was just as swollen and miserable every day. It took me another year before a doctor recommended HCl. The day I started taking it (in 2004) was the first day in 1 ½ years that I did not have abdominal distention, a lower backache, water retention and fatigue after eating. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, bloating can be a healing reaction (die-off) or it can be caused by candida overgrowing as well. So if you follow the diet carefully it will ensure candida isn't overgrowing.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 -Hi , It is really frustrating being bloated. Mine had reduced since the diet and taking HCL but started getting really bloated when I added antigunfals. I take 2 cloves of fresh garlic and a piece of horseradish every day (for the natural antibiotic) and I think that's what has got me more bloated. But as you say I think I can live with it knowing its a healing reaction. Isn't that after all what we are aiming for? Has anyone else started to get bloated after adding antifungals? regards, Perihan > Can I look upon bloating as a healing reaction as all the candida are being killed off!!

I have been trying to get pure horseradish because someone said it helps with bad breath and is good to drain sinus's, the problem is the purest one I could find had vinegar in it.

The purest horseradish is to buy the " real " organic radish and grind it yourself, but I bought it at the health store and it doesn't contain any vinegar, only horseradish: It is Homestyle brand.

It's not about whether candida is dying off fast or not, it's that candida overgrowth can be in your stomach and there are many foods that are antifungal, so they are killing off candida. +++Ensure you are not eating raw vegetables, and cook them long enough to help digestion and release their nutrients. Also ensure you are taking enough hydrochloric acid. I don't believe the digestive process itself activates carbon dioxide, since I don't get any gas in my stomach or intestines when I eat.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 > > For the past two days and especially today I have been experiencing bloating after every meal I eat.

What is your name? When candida and other bacteria are killed off they produce carbon dioxide (gas) which causes bloating. You will get more severe bloating if you eat foods not on the diet. You may not be hungry when you feel the burning, and if you are consuming sugars and too many carbs it will cause burning that long after you've eaten. For the burning sensation take 1/4 tsp. of baking soda in 4-5 ounces of water; sip it slowly until the burning stops, or take 1 tsp. of good fat.

As my article states, some people cannot tolerate that much lemon, and some can't have any at the beginning, so you might have to have smaller amounts until you've progressed more on the program. > Should I be limiting the amount of electrolyte drink? I keep going up in weight yet eat so much less. It really makes me so depressed. I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel. +++ I think you would benefit greatly by doing the 9-Day Program at this time: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/dig6.php Keep us posted on how it goes.

Unless someone knows of a way that is safe. +++Hi there. What is your name? You shouldn't get pregnant until after you are healthy and have cured your candida or your baby will be born with candida and any health problems you or your husband have. That is because the baby acquires both parents' " nutritional status " upon conception. So it is very important for you and your husband to be healthy before you have a child. See this article which explains how babies acquire candida: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/baby.php This program is not a candida cleanse, as discussed in other candida programs. That is because the only way to cure candida is by building up the immune system so it becomes strong enough to " make " the candida " change back " into the nice friendly organism it is supposed to be in the body. That is mainly done with " proper nutrients " that every human body requires in order to be healthy, which is according to Nature's Fundamental Laws on health. Detoxifying during pregnancy on this program isn't going to harm your baby the way candida will if you don't do this program, even if you are pregnant at the time. You will also have to treat your baby for candida. The best to you, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
