wah panda...dun drive yourself to insanity dear..hugs...poor gal... u stil need to eat.. I know it's tough cuz i's hard to find foods that are on the anti-cnadida diet.
FIRSTLY, pls eat. If u are hungry and u cant' find anything else to eat, eatthe best there is. even if it means eating wheat. Just eat. ok? The diet is not 100% die die cannot eat those not on the list., u can give in to 20% of foods not on the list ok? =) Go back to eating normally for the next 1 week or so before starting this diet again. Dun be too hard on yourself.. w/o food ur body is weak and cant heal. so feed urself first get back in shape in terms of not feeing hungry or weak. when u're sick we will ask u to stop al supplements/diet. until u are well again.ok?
1. Enzymes u have to eat with food. not on empty stomach. it needs food to breakdown if not it's also wasted. pls take with food. some will tel utake 30 min before food. but u can take it just before or just after. to let it mix with food. No food for enzymes to work on, also pointless. gives more problems.
2. U need proper nutrition to heal too. u can't cut the carbohydrates. u will lose too much weight..and ur body wont have enuf nutrition for healing process. hmmm.. where do I start.
Ok, U wil still need Carbo(Rice based), Proteins(meats/beans), fats(u get this from meats already, cooking oil, some foods u consume) veggies, fruits if u really cannot tahan take the ones less sweet? It's not on the recommended list but my own knowledge and trials, i choose guava, jambu, dragon fruit, you'll get the idea.. for me, I did my anti-candida diet for a few sessions before all cleared. if u read my history it took me abt 2 years. with an on and off diet. Initially I started and it didn't help, so I turned to the pessary insert to relief the itch... was very torn cuz i in this idustry but yet nothing seems to work but I gave it time..but I dun take the oral meds cuz I know how bad they are. but I had ony 1 pessary left so that was the last of it..haha..and I just pushed thru the diet and detox..and prayers.
I went on a herbal colon cleanse - it helped but I think oxy powder works better(have not tried it but a friend I met has tried and said it helped her) and less 'damage' from it's scientific explanations. ther's currently only 1 oxy powder. It's the same and I double checked. We usually prescribe but I see if I can buy it for u...but I can't get a disc. on it.
But yes, it is a good start to have any supplements put in ur system. Cuz if ur body can't clean well, it usually cant absorb very well either it will still absorb nutrients and all but it's not fully absorbed - need to go down to the cellular level to understand absorpton... but this is ony a small part. there are other issues that hamper absorption and digestion. U can start off with a cleanse and work from there.
I suggest to you. Eat as per normal now. cut the sugar and wheat portion(if can't then just eat wheat to fill ur tummy and stay away where u can) only for now. When u are ready to cleanse, then start afresh from there. While preparing for this. GO stock up on the foods u requrie first so u wont feel so stressed abt the whole thing. ok? give urself some love.=)
Ok. For Carbo(CHO) - get rice products i.e rice cakes u can buy them from organic stores or u can go into NTUC/cod storage - they sell too at the organic section. Rice cakes. This I ate for breakfast. I used it in replace of my bread/ sandwich. I made eggs - scrambled/omellette/sunny side and put t between 2 pcs(a bit hard to manage cuz it's hard and crubmles unlike bread but u get used to it) omelette can add whatever ingredients inside. Onions, spring onions, seaweed, etc etc limitless..I went to buy spices(chilli flakes, paprika, etc so i can change up the flavours- for me chilli does the trick) just salt and pepper for taste..no soyasauce(cuz this is fermented with fungus)u canbuy BRAGG's Liquid Aminos but this is expensive 4 x the price of soya sauce..so buy all necessary first ok before u embark - makes the process alot easier when uhave things at hand. =) ok?
inside I put in tomatoe slices and lettuce.. If u want premium lettuce get butterhead lettuce- more expensive but easier to manage cuz leaves are smaller. easy to wash and keep. Cheaper alternative u can get the australian lettuce. the usual ones - big leaves - u have to peel them off wash them and cut them. can last u quite a while for one person, so it's ore cost saving. Or is u find it a hassle to put this in your sandwich, just keep them at the side as a salad. =) much on cherry tomatoes, baby carrot sticks/ zucchini / whatever veggies u like..=) so there u have ur Carbo, proteins, veggies(vit/min) u can drink a glass of herb fusion (but not fruit fusion) w/o sugar. =)
For lunch u can have ur regular dishes at the hawker.. thoug with high sodium/msg/soya sauce - no choice.. make do..=) ok? this one hard to control unless u are willing to pack your lunch from home..=) For me, I dun make timeto prep for lunch so i eat out and do what i can.. =) sometimes I pack veggies to munch on teatime/between meals, whenIget hungry.. )
Pls make sure u have Carbos(rice products- beehoon, dang hoon, kway teow-white coloured noodles NOT Yellow) Make sure u have proteins too. Portion size. it shoud be the size and thickness of your palm. Rough guage that your are eating enuf proteins. =) ok? Then remember your veggies. Some veggies contain Carbos too ie the harder veggies - brocolli, carrots, cauliflower etc, so U can cut the carbs where u need too and repleazce them with such. ok?
serving size for veggies. Soft leafy one, u ned at least 3/4 cup is 1 serving. hard veggies, half cup is 1 serving size. rough gauge. Ok? so eat enuf. and dun starve. u need 2 ervings of fruit & veggies/day. but since u cut the fruit u have to up your veggies. =)
2 tomatoes is not enuf for a meal. calories wise is is Far too little supply ur food with energy it needs for work and stuff.. ok? Tomatoes is a fruit as well, so it should not be taken too often. U can have 2-3 slices per day, it's fine..=) smal quantities dun make huge impact..=)
Vomitting/Diarrhoea is body trying to tell u it's purging stuff that it does not want in the body. Can be the enzymes acting up or just ur body is not well to take in anything. but im not diagnosing or neither am Isaying I am right. let ur body calm down.. dun overdose.... I thin u've tried too hard that ur body's not accepting it...well, so just ease back into ur usual, feel stronger before taking the diet on again ok?
As long as u know u have to have carbos, ptns, fats, veggies in one meal, u shoud be fine. Serving size need to be substantial too. if not u will lose too much weight and wont be enuf for ur body.. u take suppelements also dun help much.
Yes, go for your check up, bring results in. he'll take a look at them if necessary. But usually he wil put u on anti-candida for 16 daysn and ask u come back for next visit for recheck. u can tell him. U have done the diet and want to go futher. Pls dun mention say i say..haha...but if u want u can start ur diet THEN so from now til u come see us, u can cut some slack..ok? haha..just go a 50% anti-candida, get used to it then full force for when u see us for 16 days then re-test. If body still has candida after 16 days doctoer will rec u to do other stuff..that one its his knowledge already. =) dependednt on yoru symptoms and what U tel him.. He WILL NOT check /take a look at your vagina. We are a clinic that is not invasive..We are not a medical clinic. We work differntly from them.. it's similar to gng to TCm doctor. they look for physica signs and symptoms.. and work from there.. sometimes using some diagnostic machines(also non invasive).so dun worry abt it. We dun draw blood and stuff..=) This kinda stuff need training and expertise..we come from differing perspective on treatment..=) hehe...
Dont be too paranoid or misdiagnose urself just be reading up on symptoms etc. alot of symptoms are similar in alot of differing diases/conditions, so dun be overly worried ok?
Dun say ur stomach cannot digest ur food. Did u see it come out as a whole food item inyour feacal matter? it's stil digested but how well is the question. does not mean if ur leafy veggies still ocmes out haf digested sdigestin is bad that U need to stop putting food in your stomach...hmm.. dun do this. Still, eat ur fill.and chew more... when U chew.. ur digetive enzymes your body naturaly produces will be release and this will help with digestion too..so chew chew chew...=) ok? =) dun take the enzymes just yet.. dun understand why u went to buy enzymes after readng leaky gut..haha..u so cute...they ask u to buy?? enzymes dun cure leaky gut.. eating right and good health and sufficient water can ease the situation...if it's in eary stages, but later stages of course require some help..=) but dun worry abt this.. ok?? pls... just eat as per norma for now build urself up so u dun feel weak and then when u feel better, take it on...
I know u r worried abt the YI getting worse but if ur body is weak u can't heal too...listening to you, this is what I gather. So let ur body rest for 2 weeks. tahan the itch first, if u must, do pessary. but not oral (unless u really want to) if can't then, just tahn like I did. no choice. ok?
Dun let the guilt cause to over react.. I took 2 years dear...so dun be so gan cheon k? speaking from experience..I kept trying..I think in the 2 years I did the cadida diet 3-4 times. and each time I did it better.. and wiser...=) so u'll learn k? slowly. Read up on nutrition if u can. it be good to have knowledge.. =) also dun be too quick to buy in to products on the market. dun spend money like that k? what's good for someone else many not be right for you, so u have to think abt stuff too..=) ok? =)
I have another product that sI started taking but will share this with ou once u are done with your diet and stuff..=) ok? this one is good for maintenance general health..it's expensive though...u focus on your stuff first. one step at a time ok? =) I'm always around.
U can continue with garlic first til u finish then buy OLE(Olive Leaf Extract). dun waste money.. ok? u can continue ur garlic while on Oxy powder and probiotics and whatever u are taking. U can go on a less strict diet for the next few weeks.
I PM u the cost details. =)
Eat healthy, drink 2 L of water daily..and have loads of fruits and veggies.
