That's really sad. Do you know what was in this product? Whether it was a
herbal or a synthetic base? I am really disturbed as to the blind faith
that so many of us put into the so-called health care industry and
especially the pharmaceutical industry. It's really about money, it seems,
and not about quality of life.

my 2 cents... my apologies if I offended anyone.

Dear all,

This is important information about Zyban. The same thing happened to the
daughter of a good friend of mine. The product was Diet Energy by Twin Labs
sold over the counter in a Health food store. 26 years old, vital, just
married and now dead. These products artifically speed up the metabolism
and strain the heart.

Zyban.. this is a
prescription drug that is for depression and to help people quit smoking.
He died last weekend as a result of heart
palpitations leading to cardiac arrest. He was 26 years old and had no
pre-existing heart condition. This was caused by the Zyban, according to
the coroners report. If any of you are taking this drug, please be aware
that it is not safe.

Thank you for posting this warning. I have weird problems with
anti-fungals - get very spaced out , shakey and the last time I tried
Terazol(which is a vaginal cream) my heart started racing, and my doctor
told me never to use anti-fungals again. I've had a yeast infection
since before christmas (the result of antibiotics) that won't respond to
natural remedies - I've tried Neem, Boric acid to name a few. A few days
I talked to Dr. William Crook who has written several books on Candida
and asked him if he had ever come across this type of reaction. It was a
new one on him. I've been trying to avoid the candida diet because I
really can't afford to lose any weight, but I began it yesterday. I was
thinking of trying the anti-fungals again in a few weeks to speed up the
process but his posting has made me think twice. I think the spaciness
and shakiness is probably die-off, but the palpitations are something
else again. (Terezol was the only one that caused that effect) Thank you
very much for the warning.

love and blessings,
Avtar K.

Amen Kelly. I too believe that if you do not ask they will not tell you. I
have been under very stressful conditions lately and doc wanted to put me on
wellbutrin b ut offered no information about side-effects. When I asked him
about them he was reluctant to tell me. Well it is all over the television
what the side effects are. Quite frankly I think some of the side effects are
worse than the condition being treated. It is a blessing to know that more
and more people are taking their health in their own hands. I mean when you
think about it, who is more knowledgable of the self? The self or someone
else?

Garlic is an excellent substitute for many antibiotics. Also everyday plain
yogurt has been known to combat most yeast infections.

Avtar,

Something that you might want to try for yeast infections and/or Candida is
garlic supplements. The best I have found is Kyolic, which is an odor-free
form of garlic in a capsule form (make sure you get the one that is JUST
garlic and not the one that has various vitamins added). It is excellent in
treating, but more so, for the prevention of infections of all types... even
herpes, believe it or not. It is also excellent for the circulatory
system... and it lowers high blood pressure. I started by taking 4 per day,
2 with lunch, 2 with dinner (or breakfast.. what ever is good for you) ...
after a bit, you may notice a sort of detox reaction... it may give you an
... ahem... active bowel.. slight dizziness... bad breath...headache.. THIS
IS NORMAL.. so don't be afraid. It is your body releasing stored toxins in
the body and, as they make their way out, they pass through the system,
making you feel a little off. This is the healing process and it is
important to respect and recognize it... and go with it. Don't take pain
killers or gravol or anything to decrease the symptoms because you will only
prolong the process. Trust me.... I have been through a MAJOR herbal detox
program... as in approx. 75 herbal caps per day for 30 days along with a
very strict diet... it was hell.. but it helped get rid of various illness
in my body... and then it sort of teaches you body to remember how to do it
itself. Sometimes, the body can be so overloaded with garbage that it slows
down certain important processes because it can't handle the amount of
toxins.. so as a result, many have very sluggish livers or kidneys... or
lymph systems, as I did. When I say toxins.... I mean things from too much
sugar, caffeine, processed foods (and there's a lot of that), nitrates
(anything smoked or processed.. meats, cheese..etc.)artificial dyes...,
chemicals, hormones, antibiotics... and ALL of these last 3 are really
unavoidable... unless you eat a completely guaranteed organic diet.... Many
of these things are stored in the body for years and years.

anyway........ as I ramble on........ Kyolic is great...... I've been on it
for about 5 months and I have not had an infection or a cold or anything
and ALL of my co-workers have been sick 2 or 3 times EACH since then... one
even got pneumonia.

For yeast infection.... something you can try is actually inserting an
acidophilus capsule over night.... recommended by herbalist Susun Weed...
the herbal goddess!!'

so.... these are just some of my suggestions... try them if you want a
change.. don't go back to prescription or over the counter remedies... they
do not solve the problem, they only mask the symptoms. Yeast infections are
caused by an imbalance in the body caused by diet and.... if your partner
has it as well, it can be passed on through intercourse. Yes... I'm taking
about yeast infection.

Good luck....

sat nam,
Kelly

It is really disturbing how the medical industry and the pharmaceutical
industry just wants to push these drugs for the money and the funding. It is
about masking.. about Band-Aids.... not about causes and prevention. My
father was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer that metastasized into
his bones about 2 years ago. The doctors said get your affairs in order...
there is really not much we can do except chemo and radiation... My dad
left his job and his home for a cabin by a late on the east coast for 4
months after diagnosis... he and my mom spent their time their relaxing and
laughing and treating their bodies to a healthy diet... cut out fats and red
meat and sugar.. he started taking a rigorous herbal supplement program that
my mom and I put together for him and... when he returned 4 months later for
a blood test... his prostate cancer was gone. When he was diagnosed, his
psa level was 390, normal is between 1 and 3. 4 months after holistic
living, it was 0.1.... he had a CAT and an MRI and the tumors in his bones
(8 in all) had shrunk 50% and were no longer active.

If my Dad were to have taken chemo.. he would not be here today. I am sure
of it.

Beware of the drugs that doctors want you to take.... they are there to push
them... just like a dealer.. the only difference is, it's legal. Doesn't
mean they won't kill you.

Thought I would share my 2 cents on yeast. I've had yeast infections and my
daughter was born with it in her mouth (thrush). The most effective
treatment we found was grapefruit seed extract. www.nutribiotic.com But,
it is anti fungal, though not synthetic. I had a reoccuring yeast infection
throughout my first pregnancy and I found that it forced me to get out of my
sugar addiction and I did not consider drug store products an option. I too
was not interested in going on a diet! But, I cut as much sugar out as I
could. It was very hard for me, as I was really addicted to it, even
refined sugar as I had just become vegetarian and whole food about five
months before I became pregnant. So, I had to think- what can I eat? Rice
cakes with cashew butter, chips and salsa, nuts, snacks like that are what I
found. The next yeast infection for me came at a time when I knew if I
didn't change something I was going to get sick- so that's what I got. So,
good luck bringing your body into balance. There is a message board at the
nutribiotic board with a lot of information from people who are dealing with
candida.

Love Always,
littlebird Leslie
