great article... Thankyou
Fabulous article. It's well written, it answered my questions, including the ones that popped into my head as I was reading. I agree with an earlier poster - I loved the writing style.I plan to put this information to use immediately. I have also just gotten off the phone with my mother, who suffers ALL the symptoms mentioned but no one can find the cause. She hasn't mentioned a furry tongue, but I'm betting she hasn't looked in her own mouth to see it. I called her and we had a long chat about it, and she is now committed to a cold turkey break from all sugar and starches, adding garlic back into her diet, staying on the vitamins, etc. along with me.We've both decided that if after two weeks of added garlic and subtracted sugar, we feel better but still not all well, we shall ask a doctor for anti-fungal medication to help things along. After that if we're feeling better, we'll know what to do to stay that way.This article was more helpful and informative than yesterday's doctor appointment. Thank you!
Hi, thanks for the article. It was really interesting and useful. I’d be really grateful if you could comment on my problem. I had mercury poisoning and a yeast infection. As a result of the mercury poisoning I now have an allergy to gluten and dairy. Are the probotiots you mentioned suitable for lactose intolerant people? Also, I recently moved to the Middle East and due to the hot climate I find myself drinking a lot of diet soft drinks. I allow myself one diet coke or Pepsi per day but in addition to that I drink several diet sprites throughout the day. Do sugar free drinks affect yeast infections? Is it bad for someone with my condition to be drinking as much soft drinks? Also, I have been eating fruit occasionally and unfortunately after a bout of vomiting earlier this week my yeast seems to be back with a vengeance. I’m tired, irritable, itchy eyes, not sleeping for large parts to the night, night sweats, irregular bowel movements etc etc. Every three weeks or so I seem to end up with a vomiting condition which is as severe as food poisoning. I was hospitalised earlier this week after a severe bout. I am due to see a gastroenterologist later this week. I’m regularly taking glutamine and digestive enzymes but my still does not seem to be getting any better. I also have a number of large spots on my forehead. I try to limit my cab intake. I don’t eat any bread but I do eat rice and noodles. Should I cut these out for a while also? My problem is that I find a lot of members of the medical profession very sceptical of these problems.
so dose this tounge thing need to be looked at or will eventually go away?
What a wonderful lucid description of the Plague of the Tounge. After fifty years of pondering why from time to time anxiety has given me a heavy dose of Candida, I can now face a heavy dose of Garlic to combat it. Thank you for the enlightenment. I am eternally grateful. 82 yr Widower
I tried a complete diet overhaul once because I was sick of suffering from Candida and basically I cut out all sugar, was eating toasted rye bread (as it's free from wheat) with organic cream cheese) which I mixed in lots of grated garlic), slices of cucumber, non starchy vegetables as snacks and chicken with salad or brocolli for dinner and after just one day the white coating started to go and any discharge from downbelow also basically disappeared. Unfortunately it's such a hard diet to stick to because you do crave sugars and refined carbs and cutting out all sugar and dairy is incredible difficult to keep track of. You have to check every single piece of food you buy because it's hidden in everything and eating out is a nightmare. But it just goes to show how quickly it stopped growing. To keep it at bay though, it really would have to be a diet for life. The pharmceutical industry makes probably billions from the fact that people suffer from this extremely common problem, which is one reason why your GP probably doesn't tell you that antibiotics kill off the good bacteria, leading to bad bacteria overgrowth. It's sadly all about money.
good articles, just what I was looking for
it's amazing, there has been no doctor that could give me all this information, thanks for this wonderful article, very helpful
Works but i find that food tastes funny from now on
This is a fantastic article!! I don't believe everything I read on the internet or like to diagnose myself but I think you may have just hit the nail on the head for me with this! I'm going to print this out and take it to the doctor tomorrow.I have been tired and had a coating on my tongue for years and years but all my friends just call me lazy because I like to sleep a lot. I've always had what I describe as a 'weak stomach' and feel nauseous easily, get bad breath and catarrh in my throat and stomach. I've always suffered from bad hangovers yet crave alcohol (I'm not alcoholic) and a few years ago I started suffering from IBS which thankfully has gone after changing my diet slightly but still get the odd bout every now and then. Then my eyesight started getting blurred and out of focus, yet when I had my eyes tested I was told I had perfect eyesight. Yet I know I have trouble focusing on things, not to mention the headaches I get, I've got one now in fact.Hopefully I may start now to finally get this sorted out.This was really well written and easy to understand. Thank you so much.
