Hello all! I have suffered from leaky gut and candida for years. I have shared the heartache that all of you have and now am glad to say I am healed. For me it was aloe, L glutamine, and slippery elm on an empty stomach 3 times a day.I should mention that I followed an appropriate anti candida diet as well. I had many symptoms associated with LGS and candida but one of the most visible symptoms of my suffering was hair loss. So now that I am healed my question is what should i expect? Will my hair grow back? Losing it has done a great deal to lower my confidence. Thank you for all of your input.
symmetry60, congratulations on your improved health!
May I ask what kind of regimen you were following with the l.glutamine powder and aloe vera juice? How much were you taking, for example? Were you mixing the glutamine, aloe vera, and slippery elm all together?
Was really kind of loose with my regime. Just remember your trying to cure inflammation in the gut. So you have to take these things on an empty stomach and try and not drink much liquid or eat much food for 30min to an hour afterwards. Think of it like a cut on your arm. you have to leave the anti inflammatory there and let it do its work. And its worthy to note that the aloe plant is very healing but the stuff that they bottle usually isn't that good. Just my own opinion from my own experience. Also it goes without saying that you must stay away from things that aggravate your gut. As i mentioned i did this in conjunction with an anti candida diet. I have to say I did start to feel better within a week, and then it just continued to get better. Good luck Geoff!
Cheers to symmetry :-) It's always inspiring to hear such good news. May I ask what kind of Aloe vera-brand you used and how much it cost? I am also very,very tired of having this candida thing. We can do this together guys, just have hope!
i recently realized i have leaky gut. symptoms have and do include constipation,vertical lines on the fingernails,toe nail fungus,atrial fib,tinnitus,bloated gut,having to blow my nose after a bowel movement, used to have heavy mucous after a meal,sinus congestion, and maybe one or two other seemingly unconnected symptoms.. i have been treating it as a candida and a parasite infestation but now i realize the root is leaky gut. have been doing psyllium, probiotics, juicing, digestive enzymes, hcl, systemic enzymes and zeroing in on the colon as the problem. i am slowly getting better but it is a long slow process and now i know what i must do. i have recently started with indian herbs called bowel care and that seems to be doing some good. i have also noticed when i have a bowel movement and when it is a good one there is some white milky residue that i think is either parasites or candida being expelled, i certainly feel better when that happens. i have had this condition for many years now and it will not simply disappear overnight. the chronic a fib is getting much much better but still not corrected. all this is a result of a life of smoking,drinking bad food,stress, and lack of respect for the body. there comes a time when we all must pay the piper for the ignorance of our youth.
