Yes, that’s a very good point, iron supplements are not the best. Most all folks with H.pylori have/had low or very low stomach function.

Re: Heartburn during water fast by saywhatagain 36 days 137

I think the advice you received to include salt in your water is incorrect. There are many different minerals that your body uses as electrolytes, the main two are sodium and potassium but there are others as well. Taking just more of just one of these (like drinking water with salt) will actually cause much more of an imbalance in the electrolytes than taking nothing at all. That being said, it seems unlikely that your electrolytes would go out of balance that quickly (only two days, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt shouldn’t have much of an impact). Maybe your body is really just cleansing i ... [retrieve this message]

Low stomach acid?

by Leollipop 5 mon 440 Allergies & Intolera / Acid Reflu

Hi! Does anyone here know about low stomach acid and the symptoms? I’ve been having a pretty severe case of leaky gut recently ever since I became gluten intolerant. I was able to sort of manage it by taking out foods I was showing intolerance to but kept becoming more and more intolerant to more foods. I started rotating my diet but this only worked for a little while because I started having other symptoms regardless of what I ate! Symptoms are ... ... -indigestion like a feeling of fullness that doesn’t really go away regardless of how little i eat ... -sometimes being constipated and feeling l ... [retrieve this message]

Sounds like low stomached acid to me. I had all the same symptoms plus heart palpating. I started taking digestive enzymes with Bentaine HCL and my issues stopped, my heart palpating stopping was an unexpected, however welcomed side effect. It won’t hurt to try. [End]

Ayurvedic diet is working to cure candida

by saywhatagain 6 mon 984 Candida Support / Acne / Ayurveda / 4

Just wanted to give another update on my progress. I have been tweaking my diet for the past month and reading more and more about Ayurveda and things are going really well. Energy is still increasing, headaches are decreasing, feeling of over-all well-being is increased and generally I would say I am no longer a sick person, candida may still be in the body a little bit but is less and less. I am not stopping here and will not stop until I am a truly healthy in every way. I have now tracked the true source of most disease, including candida and that is improperly functioning digestive ... [retrieve this message]

Re: Ayurvedic diet is working to cure candida by fectoid2 6 mon 822

I totally agree. for me it was antibiotics which led to digestive impairment and eventual cholestasis. It was downhill from there. [End]

Re: Ayurvedic diet is working to cure candida by saywhatagain 6 mon 847

Yes I am still eating kitchari on a regular basis. The alterations that I have made to my diet are in consideration that even though my main dosha is pitta, my vitiated vata is what is actually causing all the problems. Vitiated vata (air) is one of the most harmful imbalances because it is connected to the central nervous system and also greatly impaired the digestive power of agni. So I am really working to re-balance vata by eating lots of soups, kitchari and other foods that are balancing to vata, while at the same time eating foods that are also balancing to pitta (so I am not addi ...

Re: Ayurvedic diet is working to cure candida by cappy84 6 mon 802

the only problem with ayurveda is that for my dosha type (vata) it suggests a lot of things i cant do like wheat/oats (gluten) and it says i should eat rice when i’ve been trying to stay away from grains. it also says to consume dairy which i will not. for meat it recommends fish (which i eat) and turkey/chicken which i dont like. it says not to eat lamb which i love, although i only eat it occasionally. raw food is meant to be avoided but i try to eat some salads with leafy greens. fruits are the sweet ones higher in sugar while i tend to eat apples/pears, plus they are in season. ... ... othe ...

Yes, I know what you mean about the conflicting information, however I consider Ayurvedic dietary recommendations to be just that - recommendations. ... ... The Ayurvedic nutrition books that I have read typically use words such as ’prefer’ or ’favour’, rather than definite statements such as ’eat this’ and ’never eat that’ (with the exception of combining milk and fruit). ... ... I too am categorised as ’vata’ type, however I do not follow every single dietary recommendation that Ayurveda prescribes.

Re: Ayurvedic diet is working to cure candida by saywhatagain 6 mon 786

yeah, you have got to tweak the diet to work for you. Have you experimented with eating foods made from durum wheat flour? This type of flour is very low in gluten and generally good for health. The bread in India is freshly ground and freshly baked and unleavened, very good for health unlike toxic store-bought bread. I understand some people are avoiding grains and that is going to be up to you but grains like wheat and white basmati rice can be some of the most balancing foods especially vata types (vatas need foods that are comforting and palatable). With any foods that you eat, yo ... [retrieve this message]

What type of bentonite clay to use

Hi I have read in many places that bentonite clay works well for infections in the mouth. I know there are three different types of this clay so what one do I use? Also how do I use the clay in my mouth? Do I make a mouthwash? or do I pack it in on the spot that is infected? [End]

Re: What type of bentonite clay to use by Jenifer 6 mon 774

... ... I use Yerba Prima liquid bentonite clay on occasion. I use it the same way I would use oil in oil pulling, swishing for 10 to 15 min or so. ... There’s a lot of info on bentonite clay for mouth infections at the OP forum. MrCuddly, who often posts there, is a good resource for info on this. [End]

Pokermaniac, ... ... My advice to you is that you should get yourself completely healthy before you give everyone advice on how they should get healthy, otherwise you are just causing more confusion for everyone else. When you are completely cured, tell us all how you did it and then you can give sound advice that is really based on something. I am not trying to be confrontational, it would just be nice to cut down on the confusion on this forum. [End]
