MoreHi:
I did the breath test and me results showed that I had hydrogen (but not methane), which means moderate bacterial overgrowth in small intestines.
I have bad constipation.
Have been on antifungals for a couple of months and lots of pro and prebiotics but don't seem to feel any difference. Religiously following Young's alkalizing diet.
Should I do colonics?
If antifungals don't help does that mean I need to keep on taking them or ask my doctor for a stronger medication? They might suggest Antibiotic but I am sure it would only hurt me.
ANy advice?

MoreThis is a reply to # 301,149So the story goes.. I woke up yesterday feeling sluggish as usual, I cried in the bathtub once again and just kept thinking why, why, why.. so! The day before, I had decided to do a liver flush. So I made the grapefruit juice & Epsom Salt drink to begin the cleansing.
I drank the first glass at around 10 AM, and another at 1 PM.. I made 10 trips to the bathroom from the times of 1PM - 8PM. But I noticed.. it was the best I had felt in months! I was really talkative and fast-thinking.. I was talking to people I haven't talked to in a very long time, having a normal exciting conversation. I didn't have that "tired" feeling I usually have in my chest that makes me so groggy & irritable and unable to speak.
I continue to feel great as we speak and it's the next morning! So this may be helpful to some of you.. if you feel really bad with brain fog, depression, etc. then do a Epsom Salt flush.. I promise, it's an amazing feeling.- Re: hydrogen in breath. lemon_grass

This is a reply to # 301,154I am very acidic 4.5 - 5.5 regularly for the last 2,5 months. I am testing multiple times per day. First morning urine is always the lowest but the difference is not very big...

This is a reply to # 301,195Wondering what prebiotcs you are eating. I have read that prebiotcs might not be a good idea in the early stages. Some femented products can actually feed the bad bacteria and should not be used until later in the regimen. Feeding the bad bacteria could certainly make you acid b/c feeding the yeast cause them to release acid toxic waste.
Have you read the pH Mracle?
I am trying to get myself more alkaline. I am going to order a green drink and some ph drop from my water to see if that helps. Do you drink alot of water? have you tested the water you are drinking. My water is actually 6.5 which is what I come up everytime I test. Sometimes I am 7.0. In an event according to Young's book our water should be 9.5-10.0. I imagine that would get us alkaline much quicker than drinking water that is 6.5.

This is a reply to # 301,217Thank you Michelle:
I think you are absolutely right about the probiotics. I also feel like I becoem more bloated when I take them - but I was not sure if it wasn't die-off.
My average pH was 6,2 during transition, 5,1 during the juice fast, and now is around 5,8 on 100% alkaline. I measure every day.
I am following the pH Miracle almost religiously. I finished the transition on Feb 20th. Did one week on green jiuce and raw green soup and now I have just started my second month 100% alkaline. The only thing I don't do is the powdered greens. I tried with powdered wheat grass but I get more bloated when I take it. I also tried hydrogen peroxide but it does not make my drinks 9 or up. I't in fact somewhere around 6. SO I dropped this.
How important do oyu think they are overall? Maybe I should try again?
Thanks
