Not wanting to repeat everything I have previously posted, I have to say I am super excited because I have been putting some stuff together, and was able to sleep somewhat decently without drugs last night and I hope it continues and wanted to share...In short for tha past year I have had crazy high cortisol, unable to sleep, yellowing skin, candida, kidney pain, horrible hypogycemia, blurry vision, thirst and frequent urination, bone spur (early oseoporosis?)and accelerated aging....all metabolic symptoms of diabetes, but my fasting glucose is in the 80's and these symptoms fluctuate....
Well after realizing that my bite has changed drastically and i'm 36, I was talking to a friend who is a dental assistant and she said periodontal disease, to which I said not me, right? I havent been to the dentist in 7 yrs but I brush every day, nothing hurts, dont see cavities. Well after she said that I went home and really went through my mouth. I never floss...or rarely. I have a broken molar that is very tight against the adjoining tooth and t=when I flossed it smelled pretty bad, which surprised me...infection! how long has this been going on??? i flossed a lot and of course my gums were bleeding...BIG lightbulb moment.. My infected gums, that I didnt realize were infected, are probably causing the high cortisol, which is throwing my body into metablic ketoacidocis due to insulin resistance, which is hell on the liver and kineys and explains the muscle wasting, yellow skin and liver pain, even though my numbers are fine, and the protein is hard on the kidneys as well as the calcification from pulling calcium from my bones to offset the acicity...

SO, I have switched to a raw vegan, low glycemic alkaline diet, started taking a teaspoon of baking soda in water at night , rising with Seasalt water which is antiseptic, continue to oil pull, and swish with hydrogen peroxide, but this is hard on enamel so I dont do it much. Last night I was able to keep my nighttime cortisol level down last night and i only woke up to pee once after getting a good 5 hr. stretch and whent back to bed. I am going to the dentist tomorrow, for a cleaning where I will probably be reprimanded, lol....
I dont know if I am right, but it makes total sense and this morning I can see clearly which means I am not so acidic. The baking soda has been killing candida like crazy too, i see slimy strings AND my stool has been floating...hasn't done that in a long time...I am feeling great today, I dont know if it is the baking soda or killing the infection but I only hope that this will allow my body to heal from all the destruction of the last 14 months or so...thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated.
