Guest guest Posted June 24, 2001 Report Share Posted June 24, 2001 Hi Everyone. I've been doing the candida diet for about 3 weeks with pretty good success. My energy level is up, my depression is gone, I've lost 8 pounds, I haven't had much gas (unless I cheat) and haven't had any more yeast infections. I'm taling a multi vitamin, a B-50 complex, Olive leaf extract, acidophilus, ginsing, and a Vitamin C. All of those 2x day. I also take 5-HTP at night to help me sleep. I'm happy to say I'm off of all of my prescriptions (which I think were a good part of the problem, anyway) I've been reading alot about die off in these messages and I have a couple questions. Is it a good idea to do something " drastic " at the beginning to cleanse out your bowel system, or is doing what I'm doing going to eventually cleanse it out anyway? I seem to have a bm at least 3 times a day, somewhat loose but not diarrhea. I guess I'm just wondering if this is enough to kill the candida. I've recently found a doctor in my area who treats this, and am going to see her soon, but until then, I'd like to gather as much information as I can. Thanks to everyone who posts--it's a good way to keep me on track when I see everyone else succeding too. amy _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
