Re: has anyone been able to go back to a normal diet?

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

I feel as though perspective is everything. You change your thoughts and you

change the world. We now feel as though this lifestyle is " normal " . This is

the food that nourishes our body....toxin free, optimal nutrition. Our outlook

is of gratitude and excitement for having this plan in our lives.

I have heard of people who go off into the SAD way of eating after getting

bored

(I think that is why they do it) and become ill again. I see this often

during holiday seasons when they correlate that with the " flu " season. MY take

is that is when

many people eat and drink more because of the parties and have less discipline

for their food consumption. It is the " oh I will just have a little " which

leads for more

cravings and feeding of yeast. It is marketed as flu season because so many

feel so bad and the pharmaceutical companies can get in on it to make some $.

How long have you been following and what are your results?

Just curious,

Debra

I've been doing this for about 2 1/2 months. I had fairly minor

symptoms to begin with but they do seem to be improving. I have had a

sore tooth for about 18 months (probably a cavity but haven't gone to

the dentist) and it is no longer sore, so I assume that means my

nutritional status is improving.

But my goal with this program (besides clearing up my symptoms) is to

go back to a fairly normal diet. I don't mean the SAD, I mean a

traditional diet with soaked/sprouted/sourdough grains, soaked nuts,

cultured or raw dairy, and some fruit & sweetners. I don't believe

someone should have to follow this diet forever--there is plenty of

evidence that people have traditionally eaten grains and dairy and

fruit/natural sweeteners and been very healthy.

I have had intestinal dysbiosis(post-antibiotic syndrome-pas) several

times in my life and have gotten over it several times but I also

became more self-conscious of what I ate and made lifestyle changes.

This time(pas) is worse than the others but I know I will get over it.

You have to hang in there. Autrey

==>I have!! But I've never done well on pasteurized whole milk,

however I've fine on half & half and higher butter fat content dairy,

and on raw milk. I can also have wine and other alcohol, but I rarely

do. I have had evenings where I drank a fair amount, i.e. my 50th

birthday, and my daughters were amazed that I didn't have a hangover.

LOL! I choose to eat the way I do, for health and because I'm not

young (65 years old in November). Anyone's health suffers if they do

not get the nutrients their body requires. We are the lucky ones

because we found out we had candida and were able to cure it, while

others don't know and they are getting cancer and other life-

threatening diseases.

==>2 1/2 months is such a short time, but it is great your tooth is

better. Most candida sufferers have been ill since birth, so depending

upon your age it can take quite awhile to get your immune system up to

normal again, i.e. 1 month for every year you've been unhealthy (not

just with candida).

==>A good goal on this program is to normalize your immune system.

Hi All! I'm not the " " who wrote this. I sign my name Val as not to get

us mixed up. She is the young mom with kids. I'm the older one with grown kids

and empty nest. I just wanted to clarify this. After reading 's full post

on this subject, I have to fully agree that is my feelings on the subject also.

I want to heal and then go back to eating healthy, and be able to eliminate the

sugar and most grains. I know I do best without the grains, as I get achey with

them. I may also have to stay away from dairy. But I hope to get back to soaked

grains, fruit, and nuts--at least occasionally. I do always want to concentrate

on the healthiest foods, but the trouble is the cravings come right back for the

sugar and carbs. Maybe when the yeast is history our bodies won't crave it so

bad!!!!!!!!!! Val

P.S. I'd love to hear from others who can eat normally after being candida

free or having been on the diet for a long time.

Hi Val and ,

I'm happy to say that I have!

I eat homemade yogurt daily, I use 1/2 & 1/2 in my morning coffee,

once a week I eat dinner with friends, one of whom is vegetarian and

likes to cook, so I'm getting some un-properly soaked grains and

higher carb veggies with no adverse reactions. I even have a couple of

beers or some wine with no reaction. When I cook for myself I pretty

much eat according to Bee's plan with some minor deviations. I do this

because it tastes good and I want to keep myself as healthy as possible.

When I came to the group over two years ago, my main candida issue was

vaginal yeast infection and I can happily say that I haven't had one

of those in over a year now! However, if I'm feeling stressed or have

had a couple of days where I've deviated off course a little too much,

I will get the slightest bit of anal itching...just enough to let me

know that I need to rein myself in a bit. But all in all, I'm feeling

great, I have only had one cold in the last year, too...I believe my

immune system is the strongest it has ever been thanks to Bee's plan!

Dearest Jackie,

What a wonderful testimonial. May I please post this in our Success

Story Folder?

Luv & Hugs, Bee

P.S. You had cancer in the past too, didn't you? Do you mind adding

a word or two about that too, and please send it to me at my home

email - whenever you have time. Thanks a whole bunch.
