Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 I'm not so sure about EVERY human body. I do however agree with the rest of what you said. Basically the same thing johng was saying. Do you feel because of these facts you don't consider it contagious? I think this organism can adapt. If it can, over time it is possible it can learn to overpower stronger and stronger hosts. > RE: Re: diflucan > treatment/contagiousness of candida > > DJ, > > Candida occurs naturally in the digestive tract of every > human body.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Yes, every human body--check it out. Sure, it's mildly contagious, but I don't think it is learning to overpower stronger and stronger hosts. That sounds really sci-fi.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Most of what I read (which echo'd most of what you wrote below) says 80% of people have candida, not 100%. I'd call it evolution not sci-fi. Do you know that continual use of Nystatin has created strains of candida resistant to nystatin? Sure this medicine is old and has been around for many years but what's 50 years?? Here is another sci-fi theory of mine . I think yeast colonies can somehow communicate between each other. > RE: Re: diflucan > > treatment/contagiousness of candida > > > > DJ, > > > > Candida occurs naturally in the digestive tract of every > > human body.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 I took lots of antifungals before my paradigm shift to natural health, and I'm sure the yeast became resistant and stronger. yet I was able to clear my candida overgrowth without drugs or even using natrual antifungals. this is because there is no defense to a strong healthy clean body and soul. there simply is no substitute that you can buy or take. I was resistent to this concept for a long time, thought the yeast was out to take over the world, and was like a cancer growning in me. one day everything changed for me, i made peace with my east, and did everything I could to naturally take care of myself including liver colon and kidney cleanses, eating a pure whole foods diet, detressing me life, sleeping right ect. the yeast nightmare was soon over. like said above, it was a paradigm shift. its hard to explain without sounding preachy, and since i am always in a rush, its harder still to get across. i believe the yeast is your friend, and my friend. for many this will be hard to accept, but to understand what I really have been saying, this is a key principle. johng > > I'm not so sure about EVERY human body.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 , I have understood the message your trying to get across (your point) from your first message. I feel I am following down a very similar path as what you're describing. Perhaps the difference is you see a lot more harm than I do in taking diflucan. I won't know the seriousness of this until I stop taking it and this is at least a month or more away.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 DJ- Its really hard to say, since people tend to see the same thing in much different ways, just human nature. At the root of what I am saying about candida, is that candida overgrowth is a part of the body's own self defense mechanism, that having candida serves a purpose, in helping the body cope with toxicity that it could not otherwise cope with due to other udnerlying conditions. In this view, taking antifungals to kill the candida intereferes with the body's own system, and opens the body up to even worse long term harm. this is in addition to the toxicity of the drugs themselves. the key to recovery in this view is to address the underlying issues that force the body to use less than great back up systems, like candida overgrowth. this is where I encourage people to look. This is a viewpoint, and people are of course free to accept, reject, or think about for later what this approach means. I mention it often, because no one was talking this way when I first figured out that I had a candida overgrowth. the only way I got put on to it was by trying almost everything else, then finding s Moritz's books. I tried his advice, it worked, then it all made sense. I know many people feel the the candida is their root problem. no doubt the candida causes other problems, the body is not designed to funtion optimally like this, there is a price to pay. but, this is just my opinion, but in the vast majority of cases, the candida is not the root problem. it seems like it is because you have to deal with it every day, and for a long time, I thought it was my only problem. but, for me it was just a symptom of deeper problems like clogged up liver, horrible diet, stressful life, ect ect.... once the udnerlying problems were given some attention, the candida problem was gone without much of a fight at all. DJ I hope you don't think was trying to belittle you or even argue with you. sometimes my messages are terse because I tend to say the same things again and again (new posters all the time). I went through this too, and know how you feel. I don't have any hard feelings and hope you don't either, we are just sharing viewpoints. g -- In candidiasis , " DJ Tech " <candida@d...> wrote: > , > > I have understood the message your trying to get across (your point) from > your first message.

This is one point we'll differ on. I take a different point of view. I think the body gets into a condition where these organisms (candida, parasites ect) can thrive. I wouldn't call them " part of the body's own self defense " I feel it is how nature deals with improper digestion among other things. > This is a viewpoint, and people are of course free to accept, reject, > or think about for later what this approach means.

Keep in mind it is possible your body could have healed in due time without all the techniques you read in s's books. I'm not saying which I think happened in your case -- just the possibilities. > I know many people feel the the candida is their root problem. no > doubt the candida causes other problems, the body is not designed to > funtion optimally like this, there is a price to pay. but, this is > just my opinion, but in the vast majority of cases, the candida is not > the root problem. it seems like it is because you have to deal with > it every day, and for a long time, I thought it was my only problem. > but, for me it was just a symptom of deeper problems like clogged up > liver, horrible diet, stressful life, ect ect.... once the udnerlying > problems were given some attention, the candida problem was gone > without much of a fight at all. Yes for years I read about candida and was convinced I had HIV. I don't have HIV or any other STD but I do have candida and a host of other problems that may or may not have occurred before my candida problems (hypothyroidism, hypochlorida, adrenal fatigue, and so on...). > DJ I hope you don't think was trying to belittle you or even argue > with you. sometimes my messages are terse because I tend to say the > same things again and again (new posters all the time).

DJ- when you say this, it make me think more we really are talking about the same thing... nature's way of dealing with improper digestion is the candida overgrowth... if you take away the candida but change nothing else (for example by using an antifungal) some symptoms will subside while others like poor digestion will remain (unless diet is changed liver is cleaned out ect). when I say back up system, i am really trying to make the same point. without nature kicking in, ie the candida, the poorly disted food would be very toxic to the system. the candida breaks the undigested food down. granted, it creates a range of other problems because the body is not designed to operate this way, certainly not long term. john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
