Re: my mom is suffering from Candida, I need help, badly!

[Guest guest]

I did a lot of searches on Threelac, and sorry to say that I never saw anything

like your mom's reaction. I know for some no probiotics seem to work, but

nothing like what you are going through. Are you guys sure it seems solely

linked to Threelac and no other supplemental changes? I assume she is no longer

taking it, how long in total did she take it? Maybe it was a bad batch or

something? Just a side note, but if your mom has always had a hard time gaining

weight and if she has a notable problem with gluten (wheat types), one easy test

is for celiac. It is a type of leaky gut condition that they can actually test

for and the medical profession now " believes " in. Only catch is that to have

the test, which is via blood, you have to had been eating wheat/gluten.

Probably not related, but just thought I'd through it out there.

Take care,

Kari

my mom is suffering from Candida, I need help, badly!

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the group and extremely desperate. My mom has had Candida

for 15 years now. She's done the " Candida diet " and she literally

went down to 87lbs. She went off of it for a few months, and then

went back on it. She was fine though, even after she went off the

diet, she just didn't want to keep losing weight. The point is: Last

thursday she tried something that my brother urged her to take, she

got it offline. It's called " threelac. " Since then, she literally

cannot keep ANYTHING down. This has been going on for 6 days. I

really don't know what to do, and I'm not getting any answers any

place else. That's why I'm here. I need advice as to what can help

her from vomiting everything up? I've tried peppermint tea, it didn't

work. She already takes Nystatin, but that hasn't helped either.

I have searched high and low for people that have taken " Threelac "

and had this type of reaction, but I can't find anyone. I don't

understand why something that's supposed to help her is causing this

reaction. Can anyone PLEASE HELP?

Before you say that she needs to see a doctor, or go to the hospital;

I've already told her that. She refuses to go, and my dad won't even

take her either.

Hi there

Did your mom stop nystatin while she took Threelac?

To take the two together was perhaps to much for her

system to cope with.

I have taken Threelac and I went through die off

symptoms. I lost a lot of weight while going through

the healing process.

Ginger helps with nausea or sickness. chew a small

piece of the root, this should help. Drink lots of

warm water to help flush out the toxins.

Body brush this again will help remove toxins through

the lymphatic system.

It really sounds to me that your mom has overloaded

the system and her liver is under stress, trying to

get the toxins out of her body.

Wishing your Mom a speedy recovery

Take care and don't get stressed.

Here's information from a site on how to stop vomiting. First, have

your mom STOP ALL SOLID FOODS. The solid food triggers the vomiting

reflex when it hits the stomach. The stomach has to calm down,

rest and recover. The " ThreeLac " was like a poison to your mom's

stomach and now the stomach is throwing out everything swallowed. She

could take small amounts of soup broth to start. If you have a health

foods store near you, they now sell vegetable broths and chicken

broths that have minerals in them. Or you could make a vegetable soup

and strain the broth for your mom. I would also get the rehydration

products mentioned below that are for children. Since your mom is so

thin, she is too fragile to let the vomiting continue without

rehydrating her body. If she throws up even liquids, have her stop

those for 8 to 12 hours till the stomach is relaxed. Then, try one

small swallow of broth. Wait 15 minutes or so and try another. But stop

solid foods for the first 24 hours.

http://www.emedicinehealth.com/articles/6029-6.asp

The mainstay of home treatment is to drink fluids. Fluid intake helps

correct electrolyte imbalance, which may stop vomiting. Fluids are

vital to prevent dehydratration.

* Start with small amounts. Only use clear liquids such as clear

soup broth.

* Ginger may be used to control nausea and vomiting. Studies have

shown it to be effective. Ginger comes in gelatin capsules containing

500 mg of powdered herb. You may also brew ginger tea from tea bags.

{Or, you can buy ginger root, slice it and boil the slices water.)

* Avoid milk and any dairy products. They can make your nausea and

vomiting worse.

* Work your way up to soft foods, pureed vegetables, oatmeal,

yogurt, and similar soft foods and go back to liquids if the nausea

and vomiting return.

Dehydration: Children should be given oral rehydration solutions such

as Pedialyte, Rehydrate, Resol, and Rice-Lyte.

* Cola, tea, fruit juice, and sports drinks will NOT correctly

replace fluid or electrolytes lost from vomiting. Nor will plain

water. In addition, plain water may dilute electrolytes to the point

of seizures.

* The World Health Organization has established a recipe for fluid

rehydration: Mix 2 Tbs of honey (or maple syrup)with ¼ tsp of salt & ¼

tsp of baking soda. Mix in 1 qt of water.

Dehydration in adults: Although adults & adolescents have a larger

electrolyte reserve than children, electrolyte imbalance & dehydration

may still occur as fluid is lost through vomiting. Severe symptoms &

dehydration usually develop as complications of medication use or

chronic diseases such as diabetes or kidney failure. But symptoms may

occur in healthy people.

* After 24 hours of fluid diet without vomiting, begin a

soft-bland solid diet such as the BRAT diet: bananas, rice, applesauce

without sugar, toast, pasta, and potatoes.

Hope this helps,

Sandy

Hi

Also look into juicing foods for your mom.Get a good juicing book to help.

Thank you for all of the advice. When this reaction first started,

she was making herself juices to see if they would help. They didn't.

I really don't know how much she weighs now. She was having trouble

putting weight on when she was on the Candida diet a few years ago.

So that's when she went off of it for a while, and started gaining

weight again.

I think she was taking the Nystatin at the same time as

the " threelac. " I didn't know that it could have a reaction. All I

know is the day that she started the " threelac " she started getting

really sick again.

Someone already said not to worry. Well, it's too late for that

already. I haven't gotten much sleep, last night I got none. Plus,

I'm suffering with allergies too, so I'm pretty drained right now.
