NASCENT (atomic) IODINE has been the treatment of choice for most parasitic infections from mosquito and insect vectors for hundreds of years. it is super effective against malaria in controlled studies and was all but forgotten and hidden and replaced by big pharma. i cant take it internally because i am allergic to the alcohol tincture(mold). it is very strong and will most likely cause a fever and healing crisis if taken at recommended dosages. i dont have the site now but answers can be easily found by searching nascent iodine. with love   [End]

it sounds like you are eating something your body does not like/ is not prepared to digest with all the acid reflux... before anything you have to isolate and avoid intolerant foods (rotation elimination diet).. eat much more vegetables... if your reflux happens direct after meals you do not want to take any more hcl as you are already being burned and it can burn you more...be very careful if your reflux doesnt happen till quite a while after meals--30mins-hour then it is likely a lack of stomach acid and your body is responding to indigestion with emergency digestion methods..i ...

undecenoic acid (from castor oil) was recommended to me by a leading naturopath who treats candida and dysbiosis. i took it on a rotation with caprylic acid (from coconut oil) for 3-4 months 7 days each. going from one pill before each meal up to 10 before each meal...and maintaining that dose from there on. for two of the months i also rotated with some tannin product and also GSE (7days each). for the last month i did 2 weeks rotation of each caprylic acid and undecenoic acid before meals, and probiotics between meals (prebiotic fiber, xylitol, prebiotic milk: whey, lactoferrin lactop ...

im not sure why our cases are so different. impartially digested food causes problems with leaky gut...properly digested food is assimilated into the blood anyways and shouldnt cause a problem. stimulating digestion might be what you could use to ease the toxic burden...for example i am reactive to most nuts because of mold toxins. however, if i take betaine hcl with nuts, and have sufficient stomach acid to break them down...i get little to no reaction. i have not tried digestive bitters with my meals yet, but will soon...that is another option that alot of people say works well... ...

you might want to hold off on some of the strong antifungals as they cause toxic die off and the toxins from the yeast cause as much problems or even a lot more than the oils ever could..make sure you are using reasonable doses however, corraborated by a well-taught herbalist, following traditional doses...if you do this you shouldnt worry too much about the oils themselves, but what they do in the body. So you should take a break from antifungals as long as they are causing die off, and it sounds like they are, until your inflammation stops. i had the same thing from heavy 2-3 months of a ...

you can take tests, or you can do the rotation-elimination diet scheme, and your body will tell you for sure. just eat one thing at a time, and wait an hour at least, and note how you feel...you will know if its no good. if you dont feel it, then its probably fine. also, food combinations are often as important for aggrivating our conditions also. for instance i can eat pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds alone, with minimal problems, but once i add something else i get indigestion. the same goes for dairy products good luck peace be with you   [End]

i am in a very similar situation. i have been taking antifungals for 3 months, and anti-bacterial/ antiviral for 2 months before that. under naturopathic supervision. and the idea is that i would take them until i have killed off enough yeast, then immediately follow a course with anti-fungals: caprylic acid and undecenoic acid rotating, while taking probiotics+prebiotics (FOS, inulin, etc), and then if that killed enough candida, getting off the antifungals all together and continuing with the probiotics. so the idea is to weaken the candida enough to a point where probiotics stand a cha ...
