too? I'm planning on taking a trip in a couple weeks for a couple

weeks and was thinking I should take along some prophylactic

something or other just in case. I was thinking of taking some

dandelion leaf extract with me, but may also take the cranberry pills

if you think that works well. I'm not one to have many UTIs. They

just started happening recently (like last November).

Parsley tea is better than cranberry because it doesn't contain the

sugars.

why the UTI's are starting to crop up? I was thinking that since my

skin has been improving and my blood counts have been improving,

I " think " I should be moving in the right direction. So a bit

puzzled with the recent UTIs. Maybe the candida is just moving

locations?

==>Candida doesn't move locations but the bladder does have mucus

membranes so candida can grow there too, but most of the candida

overgrowth will still be happening in your intestines.

~~~~>Thanks, Bee! I did run to your article recently when I got hit with

the UTI again, but plan to print it out this time and definitely try that

parsley tea. I may just do a rotational approach to the various things

there since they're mainly just foods anyway and likely good for other

things.

~~~~>Oh, that's good to know. How about the urethra? I imagine there's

some mucus lining there? I ask because when I get the UTI's it's mostly at

the very end of urination that makes me feel like screaming. It's like the

pain is right at the end, not deep inside anywhere like the bladder. It

gets down right scary to have to go! Ha! Course you can't hold it anyway,

but boy when you know you're coming to the end ya gotta grab something to

hold on to! Ha ha ha!

Which reminds me of another question. This might be a dumb question, but I

ve read that some UTI's are caused by e-coli. So does this mean that you

can keep getting the same e-coli infection over and over again? I

mentioned on another post about my taking this onion soup puree, and

recently was reading up on onions which mentioned that onions were effective

against e-coli bacteria and salmonella. This is in Carper's book The

Food Pharmacy. I wonder if my UTI is e-coli related and that's why it

responded so beautifully with the onion soups. I must say that I'm sold on

this onion soup puree. Garlic is said to be very good, too, but you can eat

more of the onions. It's hard to do that with garlic. What's the relation

with candida overgrowth and e-coli? are we more susceptible to e-coli with

candida?

Well, thanks again, Bee! You're a gem! All the time and effort you take to

help us is most appreciated!
