Re: Re: Candida and colon cleansing???????

[Guest guest]

Joy, Liz had some great ideas, and another thought...has she gone through a

complete parasite cleanse? Parasites and candida like to live together.

Has anyone had any luck with curing candida using colon cleansing?

<Has anyone had any luck with curing candida using colon cleansing?>

Hi,

I am new to this group and did not see the original email in which (is

that right?) described her 12 year old daughter's situation, however after

seeing bits of it in email responses I feel compelled to offer up some of my

own experiences. I really liked everything Dale responded with especially

the last bit about the hardest part of candida being that one is so

different from others, it has been for me. I currently have candida and

have been managing it for a long time, I found a way to cure it a few years

ago, but I just haven't had the money. At one point I stuck with the

program for 6 months and all of my food allergies went away, my energy

returned, my muscle strength returned and I felt like myself for the first

time in years. So, I've spent the last year studying and looking for

explanations for the varieties of symptoms I have and less expensive ways to

beat the infection.

A few things to realize about candida:

1) It causes inflamation, sometimes very severe, in any mucosa tissue it

inhabits (Intestinal wall, vaginal canal, urethra, nasal passages, etc.)

This can cause urethral pain that feels like a bladder infection, chronic

stuffy nose, or strange abdominal pains, and bloating. I found that

glucosamine sulfate simply eliminates vast amounts of the inflamation I

suffered from.

2) All the bacteria, friendly or not, that lives in your intestines gets

its blood supply from your intestinal wall. Candida yeast can live very

close to the intestinal wall while acidopholis and other friendly bacteria

attach themselves a bit further away. Yeast can when it reaches certain

levels kills friendly bacteria by spreading between it and the intestines,

cutting off the friendly bacteria from its blood supply. Primal defense

will do exactly this to the yeast and it really works. The SBO's in the

Primal Defense are the only ones I know of that can actually kill off the

yeast in this way.

3) The yeast gets to absorb nutrition from your food before you do. This

often causes iron deficiency, calcium deficiency, and deficiency in some of

the B vitamins. I found that taking ferrous sulfate as a source for iron,

and a calcium, magnesium, vitamin D supplement (prefferably liquid), as well

as a B complex vitamin supplement hugely impacted my energy levels and mood

swings. There are other vitamins affected by this, but decided to focus on

these for myself and don't remember the others. Iron is tricky as it can be

toxic at high levels, you may wish to get an opinion from a naturopathic or

homeopathic doctor.

4) Candida is a fungus and it spreads into your bloodstream by burrowing

through the intestinal wall and sending out spores into the bloodstream.

This means that in order to heal candida from the blood and other tissues

you need to treat the intestines and make them strong again, but also go

beyond them by treating the blood itself. I joind this group to learn more

about how to treat my intestines and bring them back to optimal strength. I

do know that the best way i have found to treat the blood and other tissues

is a combination of colloidal silver and powerful antioxidents. The silver

is a natural full spectrum antibiotic that bacteria, viruses, and fungus

cannot mutate and build a resistance to (so I've read). The reason being

that the silver is extremely toxic to these little buggers, and when it

attaches itself to their cell walls it suffocates them by preventing the

absorption of oxygen. Nothing can build a resistance to suffocation. I am

not a doctor and I have only read studies from a doctor who makes these

claims. However, I believe them based on my experiences. Remember: Silver

is toxic to us if it is too large to be passed in our urine. Be careful

what you buy. Contrary to intuition, if the silver is grey or clear in

color the particles are too large and could cause other problems. Colloidal

silver should be a deep yellow or brown depending on potency. The more

potent, the darker in color. I really trust Innovative Natural Products.

5) Candida is often accompanied by food allergies, many of which never show

up on tests. If your daughter is sensitive to wheat she may also be

sensitive to other grains, and possibly cow's milk. The discussion of a

proper candida diet is too long for this mail, but if you want to know my

opinions about it I'll happily share with you a really good diet that is a

lot easier than some of those recommended to me along with some recipes for

really good healing meals. I've kept my candida at bay and have been slowly

making gains by diet, primal defense, and vitamin supplements alone. I've

been unemployed for a year, otherwise I think I'd be telling you it was

gone.

6) Candida puts a huge strain on the immune system and causes a pendulum

effect where the immune system works really really hard for a while and then

shuts down until it can start up again. This is exhausting for the body.

The waste from candida is very toxic and the immune system has to work

really hard to clean this stuff out. During this time the person might feel

ill and naseaus due to the detox and candida die off. Eventually the immune

system gets exhausted and gives up. During this time usually the person

will catch a cold or something and the cycle just continues. I used to have

about one week per month that I felt good, the time just after my immune

sytem shut off and just before I cought something. Diet management and

herbal teas were the best way to deal with this cycle for me. I worked to

support my immune system when it was working really hard and then to use

good diet and supplements to keep from getting sick when it took a break.

Well, this is allready longer than I wanted it to be, but there is so much

to share! I can't wait to take large doses of PD and to try the homozon

I've heard so much about. I wish you the best of luck helping your

daughter. I hope you will get her away from the allopathic doctors that

took out her gallbladder and into a good naturopath or homeopath. If I can

offer you any more information just email me at laughingwater25@... .

All of what I have shared here are my opinions, educated guesses, or things

I have taken from doctors I have known or read. All doctors ever have are

educated guesses, sometimes backed by extensive personal research, don't be

afraid to ask for more information or clarification from a doctor before

taking drastic measures with your body. Good luck , and I hope that

there are others who find this useful. Sorry for the length,

Eleanore
