Recommendations for Candidiasis

Lifestyle

Your best healing tool when it comes to reclaiming your body from Candida is your overall lifestyle. No single supplement protocol or single activity will bring the body to full health when your immune system has been weakened by candidiasis. In my book, Ten Days to Optimal Health, you will find a multi-step, ten-day program that will help you regain control over your body. By working with your body in ten-day increments, you increase your awareness of how you feel in your body when you feel great, without feeling imprisoned by the changes. You can do anything for ten days, yes? In this way, you will more easily be able to choose foods and activities that bring about healing because you have set yourself a reasonable goal, and you feel better. In addition, you will come to understand what environmental stimuli cause you to feel sick, fatigued, bloated, or to struggle with an active yeast infection. Ten Days to Optimal Health is a clinically proven, easy-to-follow, program. These activities can be completed in the privacy of your own home or with the help of a colon hydrotherapist.

Dietary Support

Primal Defense

Primal Defense is a natural, whole food probiotic blend of HSOs (Homeostatic Soil Organisms) designed to optimize the health of the human digestive tract and immune system. Beneficial soil- and plant-based microbes used to be ingested as part of food grown in rich, unpolluted soil. However, modern growing and processing methods have prevented our acquisition of these beneficial bacteria so necessary for the good health and function of our intestinal tract and immune system. Primal Defense is your most important supplement when recovering from Candida.

Mucosagen

Mucosagen is a unique formula designed for support of the intestinal lining during times of Candida. Mucosagen is intended to reduce inflammation and to support the liver while soothing and repairing the intestinal lining which has been damaged by the Candida albicans. In this way, your body is better able to overcome food allergies, intestinal permeability, parasitic infections, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, and leaky gut syndrome.

Colon Cleansing

One-third to one-half of all adults are affected by digestive illness. Except for the common cold, digestive problems are the most common reasons people seek medical advice. Fortunately, your body can heal itself of most mental and physiological imbalances if given the right conditions. One of my favorite sayings is, "You don't put soda in your car and expect it to run, do you?" Yet we do this to our bodies every day. In a world where people feel such a lack of control over their lives, we have discovered through our clinical experiences that the digestive system is really the primary system: Your digestive system is everything to your health. Cleansing is preventative health care. Cleansing is primary health care.

A cleansing program may include enemas, a colon board, or visiting a colon hydrotherapist. All three of these methods of colon cleansing will bring about therapeutic results. The books, DVDs, and downloadable videos available for purchase through this website contain extensive information on colon cleansing.

Colon Hydrotherapy

Scientific studies have shown that over 50% of our immune system is in our colon. If this is true, a clean, well-functioning colon must be imperative to good health.

Enemas

Throughout history people have been using enemas as a tool to cleanse the colon, as a central tool of preventive medicine. As a health practitioner, I see daily that enemas are an excellent tool for maintenance and restoration of health. Enemas may help prevent and overcome allergies, Candida, and many other illnesses.

The Colon, Immunity, and Healing from Candida

The immune system operates throughout the body, including the colon. Inside of the appendix and the large intestines there are a tremendous amount of immune tissues called lymphoid aggregates. Through these tissues, the colon plays a key role in responding to infection and antigenic challenges. In addition to housing a portion of the immune system, the colon is critical in carrying out activated lymphocytes that have passed through the blood stream and collected in the stool with foreign invaders. What is so important to understand is that whatever these invaders may be, they are still able to pass back into the bloodstream if they are not carried out by the colon quickly. When you are rebalancing your intestinal ecosystem from a Candida albicans overgrowth, you are actually increasing the amount of toxins in your colon and in your digestive tract as the Candida die off. In order to not overwork your liver and to avoid causing your body to go into an even sicker state, you need to continually empty the colon. This means moving out at least two feet of stool every day. For most, regular colon cleansing is needed in order to accomplish this. Additionally, coffee enemas support the body through the die-off of Candida.

Genetics

Metabolic Testing

What one must understand when dealing with a bodily imbalance is that every human body is biochemically unique due to genetics. The late, world-renowned biochemist Roger Williams, Ph.D., who wrote the book "Biochemical Individuality" in 1956, taught us that "nutritional status can influence the expression of genetic characteristics."

How does this translates when you need to take action to heal? What you eat determines what disease your body gets or doesn't get and how well you heal.

Nutritional science is truly in its youth. It has only been since the 1980s, due to the progress made in understanding the molecular biology of the gene through The Human Genome Project, that scientists began to understand that a person's genetic structure is not "rigid", as was previously thought. Rather, as Bishop and Waldholz pointed out in their book, "Genome": "Aberrant genes do not, in and of themselves, cause disease. By and large their impact on an individual's health is minimal until the person is plunged into a harmful environment. . . . The list of common diseases which has its roots in this genetic soil is growing almost daily. . . . How many human ills will be added to the list is unknown, although some contend that almost every disorder . . . can be traced in one way or another to this genetic variability." (Simon and Schuster, New York, 1990) In other words, how you take care of your body through nutrition, lifestyle, and environmental factors largely determines your health.

The next crucial piece of this puzzle that you need to have is that your body "knows" exactly what to do and how to do it properly, as per its genetic program. Inside of your body are approximately 100 trillion+ (100,000,000,000,000+) cells. Every one of these cells is working every day to bring perfect health to your body. You can be healthy. How do you find out what the right foods are for your individual body? Make no mistake: your food is the most powerful "drug" on this earth. You ingest it several times a day, every day of your life. It contains hundreds upon hundreds of compounds that your body uses as its "fuel for life." Your food can be your medicine or your poison. It has the power to heal as much as it has the power to make you seriously ill if you eat foods that are wrong for you. In order to find out what the right foods for you are, we offer metabolic typing.
