Candida: A Blood-FAT problem, not a blood-sugar problem

[Guest guest]

Erica,

 

Until you make the paradigm shift toward realizing that candida is never ...

NEVER ... the problem, you'll continue name-dropping and such. Candida is

ALWAYS one of a number of symptoms ... NEVER the first to occur ... ALWAYS

accompanied by a very predictable series of events. The symptom is never the

problem ... the problem is the problem.

 

Almost all candida diagnoses are wrong.

 

And where candida IS present, it resolves ... notice that I'm NOT saying

anyone " cures " it ... it resolves, vanishes, disappears ... when one begins

eating and living healthfully.

 

I have rarely met ANYONE who claims to have " gotten rid of " candida who is

not always looking over his/her shoulder to make sure it " doesn't come

back " . Why? Because you CANNOT " get rid of it " -- by this, I mean that to do

so is physically impossible -- and even if you could, the notion is

self-defeating. The candida is there for a reason ... it's presence

expresses Nature's design, natural law. Address the underlying cause ... the

entire discussion about candida, and particularly about " getting rid of " it,

is really nonsensical.

 

I can take 100 people exhibiting blood-sugar problems ... even as severe as

diabetes 2 ... and have 99 or 100 emerge free from such challenges, usually

within a few weeks (often less) and using absolutely no treatment of any

kind. Sheesh, it's not even difficult!!!

 

End of thread for me. Ya get it, or ya don't.

 

Best,

Elchanan

What a beautiful post! :-) Actually, I DO know of people who have " cured

their candida " , according to them, with 8/1/1. I believe them that they got

rid of whatever it was. And ditto for those who follow - and this is a fun

one - the " conventional alternative " route, which Robert Young, Ph.D,

Gabriel Cousens, MD, Brian Clements and many many more who use scientific

testing have concluded is the proper way.

 

What I like to point out is that most of us are never tested for candida.

When I have done extensive saliva testing with an internationally acclaimed

natural doctor, I was told I had it really bad (which I knew), then it

improved, and THEN I went on a big bender eating potatoes, bread, white

sugar, drinking beer, and my dr didn't know, I overnighted him morning spit,

and he told me my candida was gone. I felt like crap and knew why, and I

still have never called him back to this day.

 

I used to do the water/saliva test at home. I'm not sure anybody's is ever

clear for that, although some people are worse, so...?

 

The main point is that there are over 100 symptoms for candida, and although

it is a very real thing, it is but one of zillions of fungi, let alone the

bacteria, viri and parasites that infiltrate our body. Everybody just says

it's " candida " because they've had antibiotics at least once and feel like

sh*t.

 

I honestly can say that to me it no longer matters to prove that point, and

I don't think it should be the focus, really. I mean, healing is the goal,

no matter how you do it. I don't think it's accurate to tell people for

sure it is one or the other anymore, really, although the no-fruit theory is

more backed with testing, etc. Still, I respect that some just do crappy on

that, and applaud that they keep searching.

 

To know for sure either way, people have to live very very strictly and for

an elongated period of time. That is not easy, even among raw food vegans.

I definitely really started benefitting when I just added a rife machine to

my regimen.

 

So I wouldn't bash or rule out either, all in all.

 

My friend Joey DID cure his psoriasis/fungus by eating plenty of raw vegan

fats and zero fruit sugar, and tons of greens, for over a year. I totally am

so proud of him - THAT is not easy! When he did goof up and eat fruit once

or twice, he did feel awful and a flare-up.

 

I do know someone else who cured their issues with 8/1/1, finally, after

never feeling so hot on regular raw/vegan. Eventually, these people MIGHT,

though. Something in the fats or imbalance in their diet might agitate

whatever their condition is.

 

Over time, though, when people heal this and the antagonist is gone, they

typically, from what I know, do not experience reactions to fruit and the

like.

 

I am most comfortable NOW being less strident and more accepting of the

possibilities.

 

However, my main point is, candida never really appears ALONE, either.

There is so much more going on in us. Nobody is pretty much super healthy

BUT for their massive candida problem, you know?

Elchanan - NOTHING in my post indicates that I don't understand these

things about candida. I'm not sure what you mean about name-dropping.

At all. The only time people I know freak out about it coming back is

when they get off track and eat crap for long periods. Which makes

sense. We are all born with candida, I know this. I'm not sure where

your post comes from, or why it's directed at me. Erica
