Persian,

What about giving him total nutrition in apple juice every day? That would help give him energy.

Don you are such a researcher! I don't believe you ever sleep.

 

I guess I can't use baking powder to make anything then hmm.

 

Personally I would immediately adopt the mucus free diet if I was my hubby!

It is more difficult for me to keep changing his eating habits and currently

he is not a happie chappie and is complaining about this diet that I said he

must stay on for at least 3 months. He says he is tired all the time, and what I

have him

on at the moment is nowhere near perfect, by miles! I am still wondering if

his tiredness is to do with the candida death happening, well I hope it is.

 

He takes lunch to work, he is in a corporate environment and he will not

take any salads, veg or anything, it has to be finger food. He takes

bananas and a apple, I still can't find out if bananas are OK. Now he is taking

wholewheat crispbread spread with my homemade organic hummus, but I am not sure

if he should have the wheat. It is going to be impossible to take his crispbread

away just after taking all his bread away. I am in a constant battle here.

 

He won't eat my salad dressing with ACV in, says it makes him feel sick. So he

isn't

getting the ACV or molasses, nor cayenne, nor wheat germ oil.

 

Course he thinks he's lost weight and I am eating all the same foods as him

and nothing else and I never lose a GRAM!

The following herbs are good for energy... Ginseng, Ginger, Foti, Cayenne, Gotu Kola, Green Tea, Bee Pollen, Spirulina, Black Seed, & Yohimbe Extract - got any of these???

maybe a mix of some of them... bee pollen, spirulina, cayenne, ginger..?

Have you been to www.living-foods.com you may find some "treats" you could make for him..... For ice cream... make smoothies.... or crushed ice, fresh fruits, etc...

Thanks for the suggestions. I do have some organic barley green powder so I have

asked

to start taking that, he used to take it for sometime when we were in Australia.

Currently I have no strenght left to even attempt to ask here for those other

ingredients, I know it's a lost cause for most of them! maybe later!

 

Tonight he spat the dummy, he does not feel well again, I am hoping it is due

to the candida death! When I changed his diet I said casually you will have to

do it

for at least 3 months. He took that literally and now says he has 2.5 months to

go.

He said I dont know if I can carry on with this diet eating the way we are!!!

 

I have spent SOO much more time in food prep for him on this, we eat a lot more

raw than we did, a big salad every day. I am always searching for things to

make, I

am the only one who does any research, he does none. I know nothing about

candida and this diet and what I am doing right or wrong and how long he should

be on

it and is there any test to see if he still has the problem later on, and he has

done nil research! He knows even less than me = zilch!! He does not realise

he has a serious problem he says he will just start eating bread again

and have the yeast and so be it!! GRRRR I told him I think his condition is

most likely caused

by his 20+ years of meds which of course he takes all the time and which I am

still working on making

some herbal nerve/pain tincture.

 

I am also doing his diet, just without the probiotics, extra oils and caprylic

acid,

and I have no problem with it at all dont even miss bread. To me it is just

another lifestyle change in the right direction.

 

Now he is going on about he doesnt think he can go for much longer with

no bread OR -- Soy ICE CREAM!! LOL I said it is the yeasties asking

you for the sugar and yeast to keep them living!!! He does not believe that

and currently he is like a kid having a tantrum. He is also still very tired.

 

WOW sorry about that, had to let off some steam here! I have done so much work

on this it takes up half my day - and now he wants to throw it all away.

 

DH today = Damn husband

 

OK done now

 

thanks

Then there always comes the point in time when you just have to say, "Okay, here's the deal, it is your life! If you choose to live and be healthy then quit figthing me every step of the way and start helping. If you choose to go the other way then I feel for you."

 

Not trying to be mean here but "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink"!

 

Sounds like you really need to sit down with him and have a very open and long discussion on values of a relationship not only with another person but with yourself. He can get off the meds if he chooses. All of this is his choice. All of it. He can choose to heal and get better too, but only if he wants to.
