ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I think I knew from almost the beginning that something was really wrong...for me it was not hard to convince myself....it was just difficult for others to comprehend what I was saying. I didnt have a hard time admitting to myself that I was sick....I had a hard time getting the people around me to admit it. I do know exactly where you're coming from... -

Yeah...somehow I was "Candy Spice" (dont recall how that came about though ). I think Bev came up with it.....sounds about right....she's pretty NUTTY like that. It sounded kinda "stripperish" ....so I became "Candida Spice" instead. I think Susan said I'm Scientific Spice....so I'll go with that since like Bev....I dont want to be named after... -

ROFLMAO I just LOVE reading that!! There is really only ONE Dr. I want to send a letter to. The biggest idiot Dr. I'd ever seen...out of a whole sea of idiot Dr.'s...he really stands out from the rest. MORON. He's gonna be hearing from me one of these days. Oh....and I definately cant forget about the DENTIST that started ALL of this... -

Yeah..its just the most exciting thing to me to see all my friends getting answers and I just know we're all gonna be healthy one day soon. We'll have a real-life Rachelville get together....lots of food and Rinne Bars for everyone!! I still remember when Laura first joined us here....and she said something to the effect of never thinking she was... -

Well...I think I gave my diet a fair enough chance....I restricted enough foods....I did enough to know that I wasnt getting anywhere near where I should be based on my efforts with diet and treatment. If I had given up any more foods...there would have been nothing left...just the candida....which wasnt going anywhwere. So I got diangonsed with the... -

I dont speak of anything regarding healing chronic illness in terms of "days". I never said that a celiac would miraculously feel better in a day off of gluten. When I was talking about candida...I was talking about people being on an anti-candida diet for years...and then eating one "snack"....and oooops....we have to start all over again. Every... -

Yes...this is exactly what I was saying. It does not keep coming back once the underlying cause is treated. Yup....its not proven but a great deal of Dr.'s out there (including Klinghardt) firmly believe that the immune system allows for the candida overgrowth as its the only way to protct the body from the mercury. Without the candida (as toxic... -

First of all...I never said anything about getting rid of candida in a day. I said those people are NEVER getting rid of their candida. Candida IS easily dealt with when the problem causing it is identified and treated. That is the only way to easily and effectively rid yourself of candida...identify the cause. This isnt something I'm making up....all... -

Mine is the same...organic medium light roast...."O Organics" brand. The white bag...its probably the same coffee as yours. Its Safeway brand coffee. Make sure you make your coffee in something thats not teflon or aluminum. Also make sure you let the coffee cool down enough....dont burn your butt. Good luck....hope it helps. Are you drinking... -

All those things are helpful and healing to all of us. We'll definately keep you around. and the dingos too... -

ROFLMAO Yeah Donna....I think you'd pretty much have the whole store staring at you...and noticing what you're buying. It could be cuz all my candida is in my head... its mainly resides in my head with all that mercury, lyme and evrything else. Maybe if they test my ears and nose instead of my stool. I'm curious if on Sunday... -

All you can do is take the stuff to help your body detox it before it settles into your body. Take the charcoal, Vit C, whey,....dont take too much of anything though...just make sure there is always something in your system to help absorb the mercury. Have you tried the chlorella?? This would be a good time to try it if you havent...dont take alot though... -

ROFLMAO!! Donna.....I think Carla's trying to suck you into the coffee enema craze. Can you handle the peer pressure?? I dunno Donna....you're words are kinda small and meek. I think you're starting to cave. Heck Andrea....I think me and you are about as opposite as two people can get....yet we get along perfectly... -

Susan...me too....major sunflower seed addict. I would get seeds in my Easter basket or in my stocking at Xmas. I NEVER was without a bag of Davids sunflower seeds.

Carla...OMG...I love my mew cookware. You guys wont even believe this but....I can eat as many eggs as I want now!!! I get ZERO reaction from eggs. I remember toward the beginning of this thread I was feeling pretty strongly that my reactions come from chemicals naturally occurring in the food....or some kind of "impurities" on the food..... -
