Cleanse during NBE
March 25 2009 at 1:50 AM Anonymous (no login)

If you were doing an intense cleanse, would you stop NBE altogether during that time? I want to continue NBE because I feel that it is working for me, and it is that prime time of year. But at the same time, I am battling candida yeast issues, so in your opinions, would you stop one or the other? Would one negate or worsen the other? Maybe I should wait to do the cleanse after august when prime NBE period is over?

Thanks for your help and thanks for reading!

Personally if I had Candida and was trying to get rid of it, I would definitely stop other herbs and take care of that yeast issue first. You need your HEALTH first- it has to be top priority. If you are trying to cleanse while taking herbs, you're probably just flushing out all the herbs.

I had a friend with systemic candida and she was miserable until she found out what she had and went through a cleanse to get rid of it. Afterwards she felt like a new person and looked more radiant too. We hadn't realized how unhealthy she was until she got rid of it.

Thanks LaReve,
That was exactly what I was thinking. Do you mind if I ask what your friend used to find success? I've heard it's very difficult to treat as the candida can evolve and become resistant to antifungals, comes back easily with a little sugar in your meal. I've been really upset since figuring out this is what I have.

Thanks for your advice

My friend followed the Body Ecology Diet for at least a month, maybe longer, and that was the main "treatment". There is a book all about it and it's actually pretty challenging, but really good for you. It's all about keeping your body at the proper pH so the Candida can't thrive anymore. You might have to really say goodbye to eating sugar (and drinking alcohol if you do that) for quite a while.

Also I think she bought something from the health food store that was called "Candida cleanse". There are a bunch of different brands. Also I know that Oregano oil is supposed to be about as powerful as anything to get rid of that yeast. Make sure you are taking probiotics too, like acidophilus, I have heard it's best to take a few capsules in the morning on an empty stomach.

I really wish you the best- you will feel so much better once you get it under control!!!
Take care!

Thanks for getting back to me LaReve. I've actually already started doing all these things, so I'm glad to hear I'm on the right track! I've noticed a huge difference in a matter of days since cutting out the sugar so hopefully I can keep this up. Thanks for your advice and I'm thrilled to hear that someone at least has had success with getting rid of this condition!

Also, I should mention, I've taken MSM for months now, kinda high doses(you asked about this in another thread) for joint pain. It has done wonders for my joint pain. I used to wake up in the middle of the night because my legs would be aching. And waking up in the morning, I would feel sore all over and not feel refreshed, but that's not a problem at all now.

I haven't seen any benefit from it for NBE, but I don't think it has been detrimental either. It definitely helps with soft tissue growth, like hair -my hair is growing like crazy, my eyelashes have also gotten a lot fuller and are now the long length they used to be when I was a kid. My hair is also much much stronger, and doesn't fall out as much when I blowdry it Downside - hair growth applies to all hair, so i've noticed some hair on my breasts too, something I'm not used to. Eeek

Definitely a great supplement though, as our bodies need sulfur and a lot of us don't get enough of it.

I am happy to try to help you! I am glad to hear you are already feeling better!

I haven't been on MSM long enough to feel the benefits yet but I am excited. However, not so sure I'm looking forward to any extra hair growth! Hehe... but if it makes my joints feel better, I'm in. (Achy joints make me feel old!)
