Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Candida? Medical expertise

Hi rlan, I had candida several years ago, and I went to a homapathic clinic. The lady that I saw gave me a sheet of questions to answer about my symtoms. Then she did Iridology which is looking into the eyes. YOur eyes are like a road map to the body. She was able to see how bad my body was with the candida. There are several products that you can buy from the homipathic clinic that will get rid of the candida in your system. The diet for it is very different from the IBS diet. If you want to go to your family doctor he can prescribe an anti fungal medication, but it doesn't always work. If you choose either way to go, expect to feel really lousy for the first week or so cause your body is starting to get rid of the fungas and it gets into the blood so it can flush it out. Sugar is a food for the candida so it helps it to grow.Flour makes a barrier wall in your bowel and makes it hard for you to get the proper nutrients from your food. You will also have to cut out any foods that are furmented. Formented foods carry mold and candida is a form of mold that we have in our body all the time. When there is an overgrowth of the mold it turns into a fungas which invades the rest of the body. Other food that you will have to stop eating are peanuts, fruits with a rind on them pop, caffine and anything pickled and dairy products. It is a low carb, high protien diet. The diet may sound bleek, but the medicines and it work really well. I also drank lots of crysanthimum tea and ate lots of rice and lentals and meat. YOu could eat chicken and turkey and fish for the meat. Rice cakes and cooked fruit(ones like apples and pears, peaches, necturines) and cooked veggies would be okay as well.I made my own mayo so you could use egg whites and canola oil and some lemon juice to do that. I used stevia for a sweetner and also took acidopholis pills. Hope this helps you. If you want to talk to me more about it here is my email addy howarthg@shaw.ca. Good luck. Gail
