Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 > Wow, so when you say " everything else came back up " does that mean > you vomited or that you experienced some of what I am going through? It would be nice to know if anyone else's candida manifested itself with gerd symptoms. ==>Yes I vomited everything else. I had ulcers for years, since I was 14 years old, horrible GERD, a hiatal hernia, etc. Yes, candida does manifest itself in GERD symptoms, and this program does cure it! > > When I ate the beans my throat burned and got inflammed and my face > stung. Is that common for a candida flare? ==>Yes that can occur with some people. It depends upon how the candida has most affected a person, i.e. where it has attacked their body the most. Symptoms vary person to person because of this. Some people's symptoms are focused on other areas. There are numerous symptoms caused by candida because the toxins are so damaging. I knew a lady who had brain lesions caused by candida and after 2 years on the program there were no more lesions. > I could have them a few monthes ago and now I can't. The last time that happened I was eating a peanut butter sandwich with honey on sourdough. Any of those could have done it I suppose. So is it candida causing these new food sensitivities or something else wrong with my digestion? I just hope we're not missing something here because my food is just not digesting well. Candida can do all this? ==>Yes candida can do all of this. It's not food sensitivities exactly; it's that those foods feed candida making it overgrow even more creating increased symptoms. Candida causes digestive problems, so as you progress on this program and do everything recommended to improve your digestion, your digestion will also be corrected. Please read my article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " carefully so you understand better how all of this works. > By the way, I did a warm water enema today for the first time and > what came out is a bunch of flakes that looked like toilet paper. > When I fished one out it just looked like snot it was pretty > translucent. Is this candida or just mucous? (I don't want to get my hopes up). ==>Good for you on doing an enema. It will help you a lot. What you found is mucous, because the body creates mucous to flush out toxins. That's a good sign.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Bee, how long did it take you to get rid of the GERD? How did you figure out it was candida causing it? I was starting to give up hope this morning because the Gerd is as bad now as when it first started. I feel I could reach down and pull out chucks of food from my throat (sorry that's gross). The discomfort almost immobilizes me. It's hard to walk and breathe from the constant pressure in my chest. It seems like nothing's working. Shouldn't I be seeing some improvement by now if it is caused by candida? Instead I'm getting worse and I'm not even cheating! So the flakes in the toilet were mucous? This is probably common for most people to have then, right? I was hoping it was candida. Evidence, you know? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 > Bee, how long did it take you to get rid of the GERD? How did you > figure out it was candida causing it? ==>GERD is a common symptom of candida which is written about on many websites and in books. That is because candida can overgrow in the mouth, throat, esophagus and stomach, as well as any other mucus membranes in the body. Candida grows colonies which can block some areas like the feeling of lumps in your throat, and it can attach itself to the opening of the esophagus. ==>It takes one month of natural healing for every year you've been unwell in order to cure it. > > I was starting to give up hope this morning because the Gerd is as > bad now as when it first started.

Instead I'm getting worse and I'm not even cheating! ==>You will get worse before you get better like the articles on natural healing talk about, see this one in particular, which explains how the symptoms you had prior to starting on the program intensify: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal2.php > > So the flakes in the toilet were mucous? This is probably common for most people to have then, right? I was hoping it was candida. > Evidence, you know? ==>Yes what you described was mucous. I understand how you want evidence, but you aren't trying to " get rid of candida " , however killing it off helps a lot and it makes the colonies smaller; you are trying to build up your immune system so it will make candida change back to a good guy.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 I just had an endoscopy done on monday and there was no yeast found in my esophagus or my stomach even though that's what my doctor insists is causing the GERD. Is it possible that it wouldn't show up on a biopsy? Do you ever see " evidence " in the toilet of the candida? So, for the first week on the diet I felt really tired and low blood sugar weird-thought that was die-off. Well, now the GERD has intensified 20X! It went from bad to " I can't stand to be in my own skin " bad. It just hit a few days ago, I even taste bile in my mouth. Could this possibly be the die-off? I didn't cheat so I don't know what triggered it, but something did... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I'm new here so I might have misunderstood since you might have been writing here on the list for years. But have you started the diet and been on it for a week? I just understood today that it will probably take me at least a month before I can fully follow all the guidelines? Did you start that slowly and still felt that bad? --------------------------------- oneSearch: Finally, mobile search that gives answers, not web links.

Die-off symptoms mimic low blood sugar symptoms, i.e. weakness, fatigue, sleepiness, etc. They are caused by more candida toxins being going into the whole body, which have increased in numbers when you follow the diet. It is possible you changed over to the diet too fast. It should take you about 1 month. If you change it too quickly it will cause a lot more uncomfortable symptoms, and it can also cause constipation because you cannot get your natural fats high enough is such a short time. Fats like butter and coconut oil recommended on the diet are both antifungal so they must be started at low amounts and only very gradually increased. To understand more about die-off symptoms see this article " Die-Off Symptoms " : http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal2.php Hang in there. We'll see what you can adjust so you don't feel so horrible. Write and let me know what is happening. The best to you, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 no, I was on a similar diet but cut out a few more things, like grains. I am trying to get rid of a MAJOR health problem but I'm wondering now if the candida even is the underlying issue. It seems to severe.
