[Guest guest]

Thanks Connie. I am not familiar with some of the products you are

taking but if they are working for you that's great.

About your diet, are you on the one recommended in my article?

hi bee

sorry i've been out of the loop for a few days here, " the wedding " is

taking on a life of its own!!

re: antifungals

i took grapefruit seed extract when i first began the diet. then i

laid off that, and focused on diet.

2 weeks ago i got Gaia brand *extra strength " olive leaf extract

capsules and took two a day for a week. i've stopped that for the

last week or so. now i'll do another round of g.s.e.

i eat coconut every day as a snack between meals - dried flaked or

shredded coconut, whatever i can get my hands on! i have intense

cravings for it. i wonder what the difference is for health/candida,

eating the dried coconut as opposed to taking the extra virgin oil

(which is from raw organic coconut). so far no weight gain from all

this munching, which is good for me! its a great energy snack, anmd

seems to digest well for me, as long as i chew it alot.

i'm loving the cultured cabbage & rejuvelac!

hope you are well today. ~ suz

Thanks for your best wishes Suz. I was doing great for a few days

and then yesterday I crashed, so I went to bed at 6:00 PM. I think I

had too many carbs. Part of the problem is preparing foods ahead of

time. I'm boiling some eggs to snack on. Hopefully today I will do

better.

About having coconut flakes, I don't know whether it imparts the same

benefits of coconut oil. Maybe someone else can shed some light on

this for you.

What was the reason you stopped taking the gse and now the olive

leaf? Did you get too much die-off or other reactions?

It's great to hear you are loving the rejuvelac. Good for you!

Take good care,

Bee
