Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I've been on the diet for two weeks, and the information I've received on this site has been very useful as I've embarked on the process. It's been a struggle, since I've been a vegetarian for the last 15 years - I'm eating a lot of eggs, fish, and an occasional free range chicken, and lots of broccoli, cauliflower, garlic, etc. I pretty much went cold turkey with carbohydrates and other forbidden foods, except for an occasional tortilla chip. Something is definitely changing, - and I've lost 8 lbs without even trying. I'm starting on the supplements today, and decided to buy some Pau D- arco tea when I bought all the supplements. I had a cup of the tea last night, and instantly got a headache (which I rarely get) and have had one off and on since then. Is it likely that it is too early for me to have even a mild anti- fungal substance like the tea? I'm trying to figure out if it's good that I have a headache or not - Also, is there anything I can take for it that won't interfere with the regime I'm on?

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I'm thinking I may have done too much too fast; I was feeling pretty run down yesterday before I tried the tea....will focus on the supplements for the time being, and try the tea in a few weeks if I'm ready by then to start anti-fungals. Wonder if I will still get the headache at that point.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I just saw the post about headaches with the Pau D' Arco tea after I just posted asking if it was alright to take a couple of cups a day of it along with the garlic tea. I realize that I have been getting headaches the pass two days or so and am wondering if it is from the tea too. But I am willing to try and bare with the headaches if it can help me get rid of the candida congestion in my head and chest.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 That's odd. I have only had a headache maybe twice in the last three years. I used to get about one a month. I attributed the lack of headaches to the pau d'arco tea.

Is it likely that it is too early for me to have even a mild anti-fungal substance like the tea? I'm trying to figure out if it's good that I have a headache or not - Also, is there anything I can take for it that won't interfere with the regime I'm on? ==>The Pau D'Arco tea caused you a headaches because it kills off candida which puts out toxins that are mainly alcohol; so it's like getting effects close to a hangover. You should probably concentrate on the coconut oil, starting with small doses and gradually increasing it, and not have the Pau D'Arco for awhile. The diet itself will kill off a lot of candida all by itself. ==>For headaches do the things recommended for detoxifying your body, i.e. dry skin brushing or rebounding on a trampoline or jumping rope, Epsom salt baths, lemon & ocean sea salt drink, coffee enema, and start on calcium magnesium supplements as soon as you can; see this article too: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/help1.php Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Hi , Like you I am a total wimp with headaches, and I got my first (and only so far, knock on wood) migraine last August. I think at the time I was out of the refined coconut oil I was using back then, and then tried to use half a cup of VCO because I had some that I used for my skin. I was sick with the migraine for three days, and then after that for 2 months I had a hard time dealing with eating my food. My brain associated being that sick with my food, so I started adding lemon juice to my food so that it tasted very different. So my advice to you, FWIW, is to take EVERYTHING as slow as possible. In fact I would advise doing nothing but the diet for a good amount of time, and even slowly work your way onto the diet. Then get the supplements you need, then much much later take very baby steps with the antifungals. Except for the time where I took VCO instead of the refined stuff because I didn't realize there is a HUGE difference between the two, I have taken everything slowly and the worst I have gotten has been a very occassional headache, some gas and gas pains, and some very minor fatigue.
