INTRODUCTION

This eBook you have here is a condensed version of a more extensive healing program on Candida

related degenerative diseases. My purpose here is for you to have at least the basic information and

treatment protocol you need in order to start on your healing journey and elevate your symptoms and

discomfort fast and effectively.

From a young age I suffered with a host of different symptoms ranging from skin blemishes, foggythinking, fatigue to severe allergies with no real effective treatment. The answer to why we develop

disease and how do we heal ourselves when confronted with an illness is relatively simple and it has

taken me literally over twenty years of extensive research to discover. This may sound like a boldstatement. Suspend your judgment till after finishing reading this book and you may be surprised

what you find.

The challenge in your healing lies in following through and taking those actions which will reversethe disease cycle and restore your health and vitality. This simple truth can both be the source of

resistance or the gateway to new possibilities previously thought impossible. Our health and ouractions become the domain over which we have control and is a source of empowerment. Reversingthe cycle of disease and regeneration is rooted in fundamental principles of healing regardless of the

nametag for your specific degenerative condition or ailment.

It is impossible to live full lives and live up to your potential if you are constantly feeling miserable

physically with aches, pains and fatigue. After a while we accept this as normal and actually forget

what it is to be pain free and have abundant energy. Once you read the information I have provided

here you will understand how all of the different pieces fit together. By following the easy to followprinciples and candida healing protocol outlined here you will feel a difference not in months orweeks but days.

The information and principles I have outlined in this book is the result of my own journey and are

the guiding principles I live by to the best of my ability. It is my sincere hope that this book willempower and lead you to the way of recovery and full health. So if you are sick and tired of being

sick and tired get to it and I will meet you on the other side.

In health,

CHAPTER 1 - THE ARGUMENT THAT CHANGED THE COURSE OF HISTORY

Or how did we get into this mess anyway?

I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest

complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it

be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they

have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to

others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their

lives.

“Tolsto ”

Western medicine attempts to treat disease by fighting its symptoms. It views symptomsprimarily as independent manifestations of disease separate from the body as a whole. Inshort, getting rid of the symptoms is viewed as synonymous with getting rid of the illness.Hence, the treatments that are prescribed are solely designed to treat symptoms such asprescribing anti-fungal medications for Candida.

This approach is touted as being more scientific as opposed to the alternative approaches,which are primarily concerned with bringing your body back to its optimal state of balance.It creates the notion that somehow conventional medicine holds the truth and the seal ofbeing based on pure science.

Conventional treatment of Candida is a good example. There are literally hundreds ofdifferent symptoms that come in different variations and severity that are all caused byCandida. Candida if at all properly diagnosed is too often treated with anti-fungalmedication such as nystatin, which merely suppress its symptoms. These drugsthemselves have an extremely acidifying effect on your body and don’t solve the underlying

cause (more about this in the next chapter: When things start going wrong).

The result of this is that your body is pulled even more out of balance and you are nowfurther away from regaining your health instead of any closer. Anybody who has just likeme suffered or is suffering from Candida knows the potential pitfalls in following this route.

There are unfortunately lots of people reluctant to pursue alternative modalities due to anactive campaign by the established medical establishment portraying them as beingunscientific and potentially dangerous. Unfortunately this couldn’t be further from the truthand it misleads too many people struggling with illness into being scared and dependent onconventional treatments against their better interest. Let’s take a step back into history andsee how we got to where we are today.

It all started with a philosophical debate between two French microbiologists well over acentury ago. On the one side we have the Andre Bechamp Ph.D., and on the other wehave somebody we have all heard of, our old friend Louis Pasteur Ph.D. Bechamppromoted a theory called pleomorphism, which states that microbes change according tothe environment they are exposed to. Pasteur on the other hand promoted the idea ofmonomorphism: disease is solely the result of non-changing microbes invading our bodiesfrom the outside.



It’s this last view promoted by Pasteur that is responsible for the way western medicineviews and approaches disease. It’s the attack and focus on the disease approach, which isprimarily preoccupied with symptoms rather than causes. Think about it. If disease issolely causes by external non-changing microbes then it is a logical next step to claim thatthe only thing we need to do is to get rid of the microbe and voila, health is regained.

What did Bechamp have to say about the cause of disease? He discovered somethingvery interesting while studying microbes in live blood. What he saw was that thesemicrobes, which he called microzymas, would change shape depending on the condition ofthe medium they existed in. In other words, these microzymas would change from oneform in a healthy body to another form in somebody who was sick.

These microbes, which are normally present in every body, change form in order to survivewhen their environment changes. Otherwise harmless microbes become toxic andpathogenic when the internal environment of a healthy person changes and becomesimbalanced. At the core of this internal balance lies pH. Bechamp concluded that disease

therefore is the result of a change inside the body.

Quite a different conclusion then that of our friend Louis Pasteur and it set the stage of twoopposing viewpoints as to the nature of disease. Ironically, Pasteur acknowledged the workof Bechamp on his deathbed and said, “Bernard was correct: the microbe is nothing, theenvironment is everything”. Unfortunately, his doctrine was already firmly rooted andaccepted by the scientific and medical community and we are still seeing theconsequences of it today.

Disease is caused by otherwise harmless and natural microorganisms living in our

body adapting to an adverse change in our internal environment in order to survive

and morphing into pathogenic forms. This change of the internal environment of ourbody causes an imbalance from its healthy state and is the root cause of all

degenerative diseases

There is plenty of research that has proven that bacteria and other microorganisms in ourblood and the rest of our body have the ability to grow and change their shapes as theresult of a change in their environment. One way this can happen is when the pH of yourblood and other body tissues and fluids change. These same microorganisms, which arenormally harmless, now become pathogenic (disease producing). It’s this ability ofmicroorganisms to adapt and change which is the foundation for the concept ofpleomorphism and essential to understanding the cause of diseases such as Candida.

Health is never static but always moves in one of two directions, either up or down. Whena trend has been set in a particular direction it has the natural tendency to keep moving andaccelerating unless we do something to reverse it.

It does not take a lot of imagination to realize why the pleomorphic perspective is such apotential threat to so many professionals in the medical field. For the medicalestablishment to accept the pleomorphic research as valid means to implicitly acknowledge



that the foundation of medicine as it is practiced and promoted today is founded on wrongassumptions. Not an easy thing to do for anyone especially if your whole credibility andlivelihood is at stake.

Drug companies thrive on a market in need of expensive medicines. Promoting a return toa healthy internal environment would mean a loss of billions and a complete revamping of

the pharmaceutical industry. Our food industry relies heavily on the use of chemicals intheir production and packaging processes that effectively kills the nutritious content of ourfood. And last but certainly not least, politicians depend on the funding of all of the abovegroups to get elected.

Anybody serious about their health better take responsibility for it themselves. Educatingyourself on this issue is the first step to understanding what you can do to create thechanges in your life to regain and maintain your health and vitality.

Knowing that illness is caused by a change in our internal environment, wouldn’t it makesense to focus on getting the body back to its healthy balance? We know that natural and

harmless microorganisms morph into pathogenic forms when we are out of balance (sick)so getting back to health is making sure the internal environment of our body returns to itsnatural healthy state. Read on and you will learn how to help your body heal itself andreverse the negative spiral of disease.



CHAPTER 2 - WHEN THINGS START GOING WRONG

“In the 50 years I’ve spent helping people to overcome illness, disability

and disease, it has become crystal clear that poor bowel management lies at

the root of most people’s health problems”

Doctor Bernard Jensen, DC, ND, Ph.D.

Impaired digestion means your body has a diminished capacity to break down and absorbthe food you eat. When this happens it is far from innocent and if not corrected it sets thestage for a slippery slide down to chronic disease. Yeast infections and intestinalCandidiasis are just a milestone on this journey down. A healthy digestive system andproper elimination are key and are the foundation to your health.

Impaired digestion speeds up the aging process and plays a major role in auto immunedisease. In the this chapter we will discuss the most common and important underlying

causes leading to impaired digestion and intestinal toxemia.

Any stress placed on your body can upset the proper intestinal pH and balance of your gutflora. When a stress is placed on your body and this balance gets upset, your body will doits best to return itself to its natural healthy state.

On the other hand, when the stress placed on your body is too large and your body can’tget itself back into balance, the slow process of degeneration and illness has began. Let’stake a look at how this process unfolds over time and the effects it has on your health.

Digestion is not a linear process but consists of different feedback mechanisms and control

systems. What happens in your stomach influences your intestines, and what happens inyour intestines influences in return the activity in your stomach. Your digestion is acomplete system of checks and balances and when one of these mechanisms stopsworking properly, your whole digestive system will suffer as a result. Subsequently treatingonly one part without taking the whole into consideration will inevitably lead to causingmore problems than that it will solve.

Cycle of disease Allopathic or modern western medicine is as we learned based on the assumption thatdisease by its very nature is an isolated incident with a single direct cause. From thisperspective it of course would logically follow that to cure disease is to eliminate and attackthe source of its symptoms. You have cancer, attack the cancer cells. You suffer fromheartburn, eliminate your stomach ability to secrete stomach acid. The fact that gastric

juices are also a vital element in your digestive system and are a natural barrier to outsidepathogens becomes secondary.

The pleomorphic model describes how microorganisms become pathogenic (diseasecausing) in the process of adapting to a changed internal environment such as is the casewith Candida. Disease is not an event which happens in a vacuum but occurs over time as



part of the process of a degenerative process. When your body has been allowed toprogress down the road of physical degeneration the road to healing is to reverse thedownward trend and support your body in restoring its natural state of healthy internalhomeostasis.

Another consequence of understanding disease as progressive rather than singular is that

by focusing on the treatment of any particular condition by itself will not return your body toa healthy state. The opposite is more likely the result. Pharmaceutical medication has apredominant acidifying effect without addressing the underlying imbalance allowing theyour body to progress further along the disease continuum.

At the beginning of the twentieth century Dr. Herxheimer recognized this and described theprocess of how the body actually returns back to health. The healing response which canoccur as a result of your body reversing the direction of disease back to health is alsocalled the herxheimer response.

Impaired digestion and Intestinal toxemia

There are many factors, which are harmful to healthy digestion. Stress while consumingfood, medication, environmental pollution and drugs all play a big part in improperdigestion. Bad eating habits combined with an unhealthy diet can be enough to upset thehealthy functioning of your digestive system.

The moment your body has a hard time eliminating waste material through regular andeasy bowel movement, this fecal matter becomes a source for a host of toxins andpathogenic organisms (more on this later). Constipation and other bowel disjunction are allsymptoms of a stressed digestive system and need to be taken seriously. Too often, weaccept these warning signs as mere inconveniences without adequately correcting thesituation.

"Every physician should realize that the intestinal toxaemias are the most

important primary and contributing causes of many disorders and diseases of the human body"

Dr. Anthony Bassler, 1933

Diet plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy digestion. Processed foods are hard todigest and our emphasis on meat, dairy and flour all contribute to digestive disorders beingthe number one complaint in the US. The more energy your body needs to expand todigest these foods, the less energy is available for maintenance and energy production.

Another problem is that since these foods are relative hard to digest, your body will not beable to properly brake down and thus absorb the otherwise available nutrients. The result ofall of this, a net loss of available energy since your body will first use all available energy tomaintain and restore its internal homeostasis (balance).

Peristaltic motion of your digestive tract is responsible for moving the food you eat fromyour mouth to your large intestine where it is finally eliminated. When this motion becomes



impaired, fecal matter and partially digested food slowly accumulate in your bowel leadingto blockage long before any serious symptoms become manifest.

Any blockage in your intestines will lead to a reduced transit time and food will remain inyour bowel longer before being eliminated. This places an additional workload on yourdigestion and subsequently increases the chance for partially digested foods to remain in

your intestines. When this condition is allowed to persist, these food remains will putrefyand ferment resulting in the production of endotoxins (toxins produced in your body).

Chewing triggers the production of hydrochloricacid in anticipation of receiving the food you justate. Besides killing any potentially harmful bacteriain your food, hydrochloric acid also stimulates theproduction of pepsinogen and is part of themechanism responsible for properly alkalizing thesmall intestines after your stomach releases itscontents. When there is a lack a pepsinogen, your

body will not be able to properly break down proteininto peptides.

Effect of Stressors on your Body (Bad eating habits, stress, poor diet

etc.)

Overworked digestion

pH imbalance, enzyme deficiency

Partial digestion of food

Putrefaction of intestines

Release and absorption of toxins

Reduced Peristalsis

Mal-absorption

Accumulation of fecal matter

Bowel disorders(Constipation, hemorrhoids,

inflammation, etc.)

Process of degeneration

These partially digested proteins or polypeptidescan trigger an immune response and have beenlinked to food sensitivities and allergies. Anybreakdown in this process has ramifications forwhat happens down the line. Imbalances of thegastrointestinal pH and deficiencies of digestiveenzymes are common causes and often the firststep leading to impaired digestion.

Impaired digestion as the result of an imbalance ofthe gastrointestinal pH and lack of digestiveenzymes combined with a delayed transit time offood sets the stage for intestinal toxemia. Inchapter 4 “Healthy digestion” we briefly touched onthe balance of probiotics and bacteroids and howthey digest food.

Undigested food remaining in your colon is just assusceptible to spoilage as leaving food out of the refrigerator for too long. Putrefaction isthe decomposition of proteins through the action of microbes and leads to constipation ordiarrhea and stool with a strong odor, abnormal color and consistency. This stool adheresto the intestinal wall and over time inhibits normal peristalsis leading to chronicconstipation.

As partially digested food accumulates in your intestines, so does the breeding ground forputrefactive bacteria. The toxic waste products they release as a result also influence theintestinal pH away from its healthy norm even further. This reinforces an already unhealthycycle promoting the proliferation of putrefactive bacteria.



There is a long list of known endotoxins, which are present in the intestines as a result ofthis process. These endotoxins pass relatively easy through the intestinal lining and aredirectly absorbed into the blood stream and circulated throughout the body. As thisprocess continues over a long period of time, so does the buildup of toxins in your body,which will eventually manifest itself as a host of on the surface unrelated symptoms.

Many of them are neurotoxins and especially affect the brain, which may be one reasonwhy digestive disorders are closely linked to mental and emotional functioning.Neurotoxins create free radicals, which leads to oxidative stress.

Free radicals are highly unstable molecules, which miss an electron in their outer shell.They react with other healthy cells of your body by stealing an electron and in the processdestroying them. This can set of a chain reaction, which is only stopped whenencountering an anti-oxidant. Anti-oxidants such as vitamin C and E, coenzyme Q-10,enzymes and certain minerals all help protect the nervous system besides reducing theeffects of free radicals.

Intestinal dysbiosis and compromised immune systemWhen the natural balance of probiotics and putrefactive bacteria has been disturbed in thelatter favor we have a situation of chronic intestinal toxemia. There are a number of thingsthat happen. One of the most significant changes of intestinal toxemia is that it will result ina reduced gastrointestinal pH.

This and the exotoxins produced by putrefactive bacteria as a result of intestinal toxemiacreate an extremely toxic gastrointestinal environment. When a chronic gastrointestinalimbalance has developed in favor of putrefactive bacteria, parasites and other pathogenicmicroorganisms, we call this condition dysbiosis which literally means “faulty life”.

Dysbiosis is the condition of a chronic gastrointestinal imbalance infavor of putrefactive bacteria, parasites and other pathogenic

microorganisms such as Candida.

Dysbiosis will lead to a host of gastrointestinal related symptoms such as chronicconstipation, loose stool, ulcers, gastritis, chronic intestinal inflammation and gallbladderproblems. These symptoms, when allowed to continue, can lead to even more seriousconditions related to immune system dysfunction such as:

• Food intolerances and allergies

•

Skin outbreaks, eczema• Chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis

• Migraines

• Mental problems such as fogginess and difficulty concentrating

When dysbiosis is allowed to persist over time it will set off a vicious cycle which mayunfold for many years without any manifestation of clear symptoms or diseases. Oncesymptoms become manifest it is normally treated as something which stands on its own



without taking in consideration the underlying process of degeneration, making it almostimpossible to correctly diagnose and heal.

Pathogenic Albicans (Candidiasis) is a milestone of how far physical degeneration hasprogressed over time and the severity of any existing dysbiosis. Degenerative diseasessuch as lupus, Multiple Sclerosis and others are advanced manifestations of this sameprocess. Other diseases such as Autism and hormonal imbalances such as

Hypothyroidism are now being linked to yeast/fungal infections as well. (More on this later)

Say hello to Pathogenic candidaCandida Albicans is not necessarily a harmful organism. It normally lives in balance withother bacteria. Candida is the name of a group of fungi which are a normal inhabitant ofour digestive tract, where it lives in a symbiotic relationship with us without causing anydisease. When a systemic imbalance (dysbiosis) is allowed to persist, Candida willproliferate and crowd out the remaining beneficial bacteria in your intestinal tract.

Candida Albicans is the most common species to result in candidiasis or as Dr. Bob Owen,Ph.D. refers to it, pathogenic Albicans. It’s only when the pH of our digestive tract is altered

as a result of dysbiosis that Candida becomes parasitic and pathogenic (disease causing).

In chapter 1 “The argument that changed the course of history”, we learned how bacteriaand microbes have the ability to change their shape depending on any changes in theirenvironment? Well, it’s no different with Candida. As the pH and other factors such astoxins produced by putrefying bacteria change the gastrointestinal environment, Candidawill morph into a pathogenic fungal form in order to adapt and survive in this newenvironment. In other words, any condition of pathogenic Albicans (Candidiasis) is inperfect harmony with its environment, namely yours!

One of the most common causes for Candida to become a problem is the use of antibiotics

for treatment of bacterial infections (The name antibiotic literally means “against live”) andbirth control. Even after the use of antibiotics or birth control pills has stopped, Candida willcontinue to spread. Friendly bacteria are in a minority and can’t control the proliferation ofCandida and other pathogenic microorganisms.

Our immune system is activated to guard us against any toxic invasion and is now working24/7 in an attempt to protect your body from their disease causing effect. The only wayCandida will stop proliferating is through the return of a healthy intestinal environment.

Anti-fungal medication and other drugs used in the “war against Candida” only help tosuppress the symptoms while at the same time promoting the internal environment

Candida thrives in. Any of you having used anti-fungal medication in your battle toovercome the effects of Candida will know that when you start on these drugs you better beprepared to keep on taking them for live for the moment you stop the beast will reappearwith a vengeance. After having read up to this point you really shouldn’t be surprised.

Leaky Gut and Systemic CandidiasisAs Candida has morphed into its pathogenic form it will develop long rod like tentaclescalled hyphens. Candida will nestle itself in the mucosal lining and will literally drill holesthrough the intestinal wall compromising its integrity. The mucosa of our intestines is very



important in that it serves to protect your body from following any potentially harmfulsubstances to enter. Once this boundary between your intestinal tract and the rest of yourbody is compromised you have what is called Leaky Gut Syndrome.

When this happens partially digested proteins, Candida as well as other toxins intended tobe eliminated are allowed to enter your bloodstream. The result is an overburdened

immune system desperately trying to fight off and neutralize this assault. Theconsequences of this are very serious and include a host of progressive symptoms.

In the advanced stage of Crohn’s disease all the layers of mucosal lining are inflamed andswollen and is very painful. In severe cases this condition is so acute and threatening thatthe only solution is the partial or complete removal of the colon.

Pathogenic candida and friends – chronic diseasesAs impaired digestion and intestinal toxemia are allowed to persist over time, your body willslowly but surely continue along the path of further degeneration with eventually fatalconsequences. This process will faithfully continue without any of your help if nothing is

done to reverse this unhealthy trend.

Now more and more research is linking Candida to a host of previous believed unrelateddiseases such as autism, Alzheimer’s, fibromyalgia, Crohn’s disease and on and on. It isreally not Candida as you have learned but the underlying intestinal dysbiosis which allowspathogenic candida to develop and proliferate in the first place.



CHAPTER 3 – HEALING PATHOGENIC CANDIDA

(and related degenerative diseases)

"The existence of a Candida problem is only denied by those not up to date

on recent medical, microbiological, and bio-chemical literature."

Jeanne Marie Martin and Zoltan P. Rona, M.D.

(Authors of “The Complete Candida Yeast Guidebook)

In this chapter we are going to go over all the different steps you need to take to reversethe trend of disease and physical degeneration and how to regain your health and energy.Every action we take in life creates a specific result and the same is true for your health.Bad health and disease can only be overcome by taking personal responsibility for it anddoing what is right.

Even though our focus is on pathogenic Candida, the protocol laid out here is not limited tothis condition only. These action steps are true for any other degenerative disease as welland by following these steps you will experience the same positive results I and thousandsof others have achieved before you. Why does this work? Because the focus is onsupporting your body’s ability to restore itself to a healthy natural environment instead offocusing merely on symptom management.

• Eliminate toxins and boost your body’s own ability to detox• Restore the health of your gastrointestinal system

• Eliminate any nutritional deficiencies and increase cellular vitality.• Strengthen your body’s natural defenses against harmful influences

• Support and boost your immune system

Before going on you need to understand the fundamental principle underlying everythingwhich follows. As we learned earlier, pathogenic Candida can only develop when ourintestinal environment is out of balance and we lack the proper ratio of probioticsresponsible for keeping potentially harmful microbes in check. If, for example, you eatcommercial meat raised with antibiotics and hormones you will undermine the very resultsyou are seeking.

All effective healing and health is based on this basic principle:

DO WHAT HEALS AND AVOID WHAT HURTS!!

We have learned that degenerative diseases itself are a symptom of unhealthy andimbalanced internal environment of our body. Knowing this it logically follows that all of ourefforts should be focused on restoring a healthy internal environment by supporting yourbody in returning itself to its natural internal balance.

Incidentally, you can divide anything we do into either healthy or unhealthy using this as ameasuring stick. Anything you do to support your body in maintaining a healthyenvironment is healthy and anything you do which does not, well you guessed it already, is



unhealthy and will eventually lead to disease. In short, our health is a direct reflection ofour habits and actions we take. This is either great news knowing we have so much morepower over our physical wellbeing then we have led to believe and a disappointment if youare looking for a fix all magic pill. (You will have to see you doctor for that).

PROTOCOL OVERVIEW Enough talk about the underlying principles of health and healing, let’s talk about the actualsteps involved in the Candida Healing Protocol. What follows is a general description of theprocess with a complete action plan outline at the end. Even though there is a definite orderto the action steps, it is an iterative process meaning there is overlap step three forexample can’t begin till step two has been completed.

1) Determine severity2) Identify and remove causes of problem3) Treat surface problem without further exuberating the underlying condition4) Detox colon

5) Strengthen immune system6) Restore intestinal flora7) Maintain your health by establishing healthy habits

1) Determine severityDetermining severity is a tricky thing. For one, even if you have a topical or sporadicoutbreak, it could point to a systemic condition which only flares up in times when yourimmune system is compromised such as in times of stress. This is the case a lot of timeswith recurrent Candidiasis where the underlying dysbiosis causes flare ups at times.

The other thing to realize is that it is nearly impossible to be suffering from any

degenerative disease (fibromyalgia, IBS, leaky gut, etc.) and not have be suffering fromintestinal Candida. Many of the symptoms of degenerative diseases overlap and it is easyto get caught up in a disease naming game trying to associate a particular set of symptomswith a particular condition. The bottom line is that intestinal dysbiosis and a compromiseddigestive tract lies at the foundation of all of the seemingly unrelated symptoms.

Appendix B of this book is a Candida questionnaire which will give you a good indication ofthe degree of intestinal dysbiosis you may be suffering from. (Of course a doctor is the onlyprofessional who is legally allowed to make a diagnosis)

For additional information on the various modern ways to diagnose a fungal infection and theirlimitations visit www.natural-candida-cleanse.com/candida-albicans-diagnosis.html

2) Identify & eliminate causes of your problemsThis means taking inventory of not only your habits but other external factors as well. Whenwe are feeling fatigued and sickly all the time it means our body is overwhelmed and has ahard time coping. Becoming aware of all of the things which have a potential toxic anddepressing effect on our health is important step in taking control back. If we allow to bestressed out surrounded by toxic influences no medication is going to bring us the healthwe are looking for. Only by eliminating negative influences and establishing a healthysurrounding and healthy habits will we restore fundamental health and wellbeing.

You will find in appendix B the “healing versus hurting worksheet” to help you take apersonal inventory and make more healthy choices. Below is a short discussion of some ofthe most immediate things to become aware of.

Nutritional deficiency

It surprises a lot of people that nutritional deficiency is a real problem. We may have plentyof food but the nutritional value is for the most part degraded due to not only our farmingand harvesting practices but also as a result of the commercial processing andpreservation practices. We are constantly surrounded by temptation which involve choicesof food and drinks which are detrimental for our health.

For some basic information about easy to follow Candida diet guidelines and suggestions visitwww.natural-candida-cleanse.com/candida-diet-guidelines.html.

Just as important as it is to avoid certain foods, it is crucial you ensure you provide yourbody with all of its nutritional needs to function optimally. That means more than just thenumber of protein, carbohydrates, fats and calories. It means giving our body the vitamins,(trace)minerals and anti-oxidants off which a deficiency will eventually default in diseaseand discomfort. The best way to make sure you are not running on a deficiency is by takinga whole food nutritional supplement containing all of the critical elements in a natural andbio available form.

Enzymes are living entities responsible for catalyzing all the various processes in yourbody. without which it would be impossible for you to properly digest our food. If you eat alot of cooked foods and don’t want to adjust your diet to much it may be beneficial tosupplement your meals with a good digestive enzyme supplement. Another benefit oftaking digestive enzymes with your cooked food is that it reduces the total energy outputrequired by your body for your digestion.

There is also a specific candida cleanse enzyme formulation which works by digesting itscell wall which is made out of cellulose and a systemic formulation aimed at reducinginflammation in your body.

“If your system is lacking enzymes - substances basic to all life processes

- it may be why your chronic condition doesn't improve."

Polluted Water

Tap water is said to be safe for human consumption. Independent tests have shown the

number of known toxins such as arsenic and other heavy metals contained in our watersupply. Buying bottle water even though an option is relatively expensive and reallycontributes to environmental pollution. It not only destroys a natural resource and turns itinto an industrial plant creating pollution but requires a lot of energy to pump, bottle anddistribute it over a large distance from its original source. Not to mention the additionalpollution as a results of all the used plastic bottles. It’s cheaper for you and better for theenvironment to get an affordable water filter for your home.

Environmental Toxins

Our brain is wired to identify big and obvious dangers and does a lousy job at takingcorrective action to negative influence which accumulate over a long period of time beforebecoming apparent. It is impossible to avoid all toxins but we can help minimize them byreducing them in our own household. Using human friendly natural household products such as dishwashing and laundry detergents, cleaning supplies, body soap and tooth paste

is not only better for our long term wellbeing but our environment as well.

Heavy metal toxicity is linked to a host of serious diseases from developmental problems inchildren to diseases such as Alzheimer’s and neurological disorders. Heavy metalsinterfere with basic physiological processes and pose a real serious health threat. It’simpossible in our modern world to avoid this menace and using a heavy metal detoxer willreduce the toxic overload in your body

Constipation

When constipated don’t blindly depend on laxatives as the solution. Your body is tellingyou something is wrong and needs to be fixed. Make a colon cleanse just as important ascleaning your house. In matter of fact, it is your house! Do regularly a one day mini fast offruit and vegetable juice to give your system a rest. If you don’t at least have one bowelmovement per day, you are looking at trouble down the turnpike if you decide to ignore theproblem. Stress, poor diet and drugs are a main cause for constipation. In the section“Detoxify your Colon” below I will show the most effective way to clean out your colon andalleviate your constipation.

“Retained debris in the colon leads to the absorption of toxins resulting in

systemic poisoning. Colon cleansing can rid the colon of debris and help

prevent and treat a variety of health problems.”

Dr. James Balch

A clogged up colon is like an underground dark and humid waste dump with fecal matterfermenting and becoming rancid . It’s not very hard to imagine what will happen underthese conditions. With nowhere to go the body re-absorbs some of the toxic byproductsand this is what is called auto-intoxication. You are literally poisoning yourself. The pH ofyour colon will change outside of its normal range and you know what train you justboarded. The Candida train to a live full of sickness and misery.

Decrease Stress

Stress is also called the silent killer. Our bodies were never designed to be in a state of

prolonged long-term stress but only in cases of emergency. Stress is part of our emergencyresponse system for cases of threat to our survival. It activates our sympathic nervoussystem which is responsible for the regulating our physiology during duress.

Prolonged activation has extremely harmful consequences for our physical wellbeing and isa big part of the reason for the epidemic of diseases. Finding ways to relax during the dayis just as important as eating well of drinking clean water. Creating a nurturing environmentin which you feel comfortable is an important thing you can do to reduce chronic tension.

3) Treat surface problem without exuberating the underlying conditionIf you are feeling miserable and in pain you do not want to wait for relief tomorrow, youwant it yesterday! Candida has so many overlapping symptoms associated ranging frommildly irritating to completely debilitating with no two people exhibiting the exact same set ofproblems. Ironically the fastest way to get immediate relief is by following the protocol Ihave described in this chapter. The most essential things to do for quick relief is to use the

oxygen colon cleanser and by taking the special Candida cleansing probiotics as describedin appendix A at the end of this book.

When I literally couldn’t get out of bed because my muscles felt so heavy I found reliefliterally within a couple of days. Even though I felt so much better in such a short time Icontinued following the Candida healing protocol to regain full health.

(For fast and effective symptom relief follow step 3 and 4 in appendix A – Candida Healing ProtocolAction Plan)

4) Detoxify your ColonThere are several ways to do a colon cleanse, each one having their pros and cons. The

purpose of your cleanse is multifold. One reason is to remove the layers of compactedmatter on the inner lining of your intestines and open this your digestive tract for futureelimination of toxic waste. In doing so you will allow your body to reabsorb more nutrientsand water without having to force its way through old layers of toxic fecal matter. Thesecond purpose is to clean out parasites and excess yeast.

The most effective way to clean out your colon is through a process called oxidationreduction. Using an oxygen based colon cleanser will reduce any solid toxic matter toliquid or gas, taking of layer after layer from the inside of your intestines. Specially treatedozonated magnesium oxides remove and clean the entire intestinal tract from old toxicwaste, not just the large intestine. One of the benefits of using an oxygen based cleanser

is that it is not habit forming.

Cleaning your colon is not the same as using herbs or bulk fiber to relieve constipation.There are other causes to constipation but a dirty and compacted colon is one of the mostimportant one! Getting your colon to return to a clean and healthy state will take care ofsuch symptoms as constipation and hemorrhoids. Again, fixing the symptoms will not leadto a clean and healthy colon. While psyllium and other fiber products simply scrape matterout through the center of a clogged colon, oxygen therapy actually removes old andimpacted fecal matter as it detoxifies and cleanses the entire colon. By thoroughlycleansing the entire intestinal tract, it allows room for normal bowel processes and a returnto health.

Besides cleaning out your colon of old fecal metal and toxic overload, you want to eliminateparasites as well. Parasites just as any other living organism seeks an environment bestsuited for its survival. Just as pathogenic Candida flourishes as the result of a unhealthyintestinal environment, so do parasites get a chance to gain a foothold in your digestivetract. You can choose to add an effective parasite cleanser while you are using the coloncleanse which will help to completely remove parasites from your intestinal tract. I haveused a parasite cleanse myself but have also personally experienced the elimination ofparasites using the oxygen cleanse without using anything else.

5) Strengthen your immune systemThere are two ways we can support our immune system. The first way is to eliminate thosefactors which suppress it in the first place and the second way would be to take immuneboosting supplements. It does not make to simply take supplements without taking inconsideration why your immune system is so exhausted in the first place.

This is why step one of identifying and eliminating the those factors which have a negativeimpact on your physical wellbeing is so important. It’s a bit like having a car with a tree infront of it and expecting that revving up the engine will force the tree down. As you aretaking care of reducing the toxic overload on your body there are additional things you cantake to boost your immune system in the process.

6) Restore intestinal floraYou understand how pathogenic Candida and related degenerative diseases develop as aresult of a disturbed internal environment so you understand the importance ofreintroducing probiotics to repopulate your intestinal tract with friendly bacteria. Just takingloads of probiotics in the hope that this will suffice in establishing enough friendly bacteria

to restore you intestinal flora is wishful thinking.

There are a lot of different brand and probiotic formulations on the market today but not allare equal. Most brands have a combination of the two most commonly used probioticstrains namely Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Lactobacillus Bifido. There are only a fewformulations specifically designed to combat pathogenic Candida with varying results. TheCandida Cleanse Probiotic I recommend has proven to be not only extremely effective incombating a chronic yeast condition but reliefs symptoms in most cases in a matter ofdays. This probiotic formulation relieved me from my candida symptoms such as fatigueand muscle aches in a matter of day when I literally didn’t have the energy to get out ofbed. The Candida Cleanse Probiotic is formulated for treating specifically yeast related

conditions and will actually help speed up the elimination of pathogenic candida whilerepopulating the friendly bacteria.

7) Maintain your health by establishing healthy habitsChanging habits can be the most difficult and scariest thing to do. Most people are afraidthat all of a sudden they need to become a monk and abstain from everything they like.This is really not the case and far from the truth. Just make an honest inventory andbecome more conscious about the choices you make and plan ahead a little will go a farway. Don’t take on a all or nothing attitude. Make small changes and be gentle with yourselfas you go and remember that perfection is not the objective and would take the funcompletely out of it.





CHAPTER 4 – THE HIGH ROAD TO MAINTAINING HEALTH & VITALITY

In general, nine-tenths of our happiness depends upon health alone. With

health, everything is a source of pleasure; without it, nothing else,

whatever it may be, is enjoyable; even the other personal blessings-- a

great mind, a happy temperament-- are degraded and dwarfed for want of

it. Arthur Schopenhauer

There are seven basic pillars of health which together form the foundation of health andwellbeing. Each one is powerful on its own but it really is the synergism of all of themworking together which will create the abundant health and vitality. Health and overcomingdegenerative diseases such as Candida and living a healthy life does not have to be ascomplicated as we have been made to believe. The following seven pillars of health provideessential guidelines and will help you regain and retain your body’s health and provide ahealthy environment.

All healing comes as a result of aligning all of our actions and thoughts to

supporting our body return to its natural internal environment and balance:The right pH, abundant oxygen and cell which carry a relative strong

negative charge.

Maintain a clean and healthy colon and body A clean colon is an absolute must and should be your highest priority. The colon’s mainfunction is the re-absorption of nutrients and water into your bodies and the elimination oftoxic wastes through regular bowel movements. Keeping and ensuring your colon is clean

and healthy is absolutely crucial. Dr. Bernard who has done many years of research andstates that “death starts in the colon”.

The colon is to move waste product out of the body, not to be a permanent toxic wastestation. A dirty and sluggish colon is the beginning of imbalance and disease. Maintaininga clean colon is for a large part directly related to your diet. If you eat a clean diet consistingof lots of raw (sprouted) foods and perform an occasional fast, having a toxic colon will beless of an issue. Others who choose to be less stringent in their food choices will have tobe more proactive to clean and maintain a healthy digestive tract.

It is absolutely ironic that we have no problem accepting the fact that our house gets dirtyover time and we need to maintain it by periodically cleaning and yet treat our bodies as if itis the never ending incinerator with no negative consequences to our health. Toxins buildup faster in our body simply due to the fact that we live in a more toxic world. Green foodssuch as cilantro and parsley have a chelating effect and help your body get rid of heavymetals. Make sure you plan at least ones a year to do a whole body detox and include aone day fast from time to time.



Lots of oxygen It has been estimated by scientists that the oxygen content of our atmosphere has droppeddramatically during the last hundred years. Not only is our food depleted of minerals,vitamins and enzymes due to our modern means of food production, we are also receivingless oxygen. Chronic breathing disorders have increased dramatically in recent history andwhat used to be rare and primarily adult onset diseases are now hitting young kids.

• Plenty of Oxygen also means breathing clean air. The focus has been primarily onoutdoor pollution, but there has been a steady increase in awareness of the dangers ofindoor pollution. Filter based air purifiers have some build in design shortcomings. Bythe nature of their design they only filter the air at the location of the air filter. WellDavid you say, how else? Well, there are actually indoor air purifiers which operateaccording to the same principle nature uses to keep the outdoor air clean through amechanism using electrostatic energy which causes small dust particles to clumptogether and fall down due to their increased weight. Not really essential but certainlyhelpful if you suffer from allergies.

•

Take a few moments throughout the day to focus on your breath. Oxygen isn’t just whatkeeps us alive, it is live. Getting into the habit of proper breathing is something many ofus have forgotten how to do. There are some very effective exercises which willincrease your oxygen intake which are easy to learn and do. By learning some basicbreathing exercises we can directly affect our own health by ensuring our cells receivethe oxygen they need to function properly. One of the best places to start learningabout breathing is with Mike White at breathing.com. You can take his online breathingevaluation which is completely free and will give you some pretty good feedback whichmay surprise you.

• Another effective and highly recommended way to make sure your body receives plenty

of oxygen is by taking Cellfood. It facilitates detoxing your body from harmful toxins andis a powerful health booster. Cellfood has the unique ability to dissociate the watermolecule into nascent hydrogen and nascent oxygen. This literally gives your bodymore oxygen from the inside out which is absorbed and transported throughout yourbody. By oxygenating your body this way you help your body to detox and create theoxygen rich environment which makes it impossible for disease to exist. This is one ofthe most effective and easy ways of increasing the amount of oxygen available to yourcells. It is advisable to make sure you take a good whole food supplement to ensure youhave a good supply of anti-oxidants to effectively counter the damage of free radicals.

Clean Water

The importance of water cannot be underestimated. Just by drinking more water it ispossible to prevent so many of today’s illnesses. Water is vital in the transport of oxygen,hydrogen, minerals and is a major body cleanser. A lack of proper hydration causes yourbody to become overly acidic (cant emphasis the importance of this) and prevents it fromproperly flushing out waste material. For further reading you may want to check out thebook “Your Bodies Many Cries For Water” by Dr. F. Batmanghelidj.

According to research articles and news, most tap and well water in the U.S. are not safefor drinking due to heavy industrial and environmental pollution. We have reached a point

http://www.natural-candida-cleanse.com/links/free-breathing-test


http://www.natural-candida-cleanse.com/links/cellfood








that, all sources of our drinking water, including municipal water systems, wells, lakes,rivers, and even glaciers, contain some level of contamination

There are many water purifying systems on the market with some of them even alkalizingyour water. The most important thing is that you have affordable toxin free drinking water.Buying purified water really should not be a habit and the quality is often questionable. It

takes an enormous amount of energy and resources to pump, bottle and transportcommercial water not to talk about the environmental impact of the actual drilling andplastic bottles. Consider an affordable home purifying system which in the wrong run willgive you clean water cheaper than buying bottled water and is less harmful on ourenvironment.

Besides the importance of consuming toxin free water, the best water to drink is not distilledwater but water with the right solution of bio-available minerals and trace minerals. Besidesit detoxing and oxygenating qualities, adding Cellfood will alkalize your water whileproviding essential minerals as well.

Proper nutritionThis is the biggest challenge for some of us but is an important pillar of your health. Ipersonally know, for I have found comfort in food since I was a teenager and know thechallenge it has been to get control over my eating. Especially when you are still in thehealing stage of your Candida, do your best in avoiding the “four whites”: white flour, whiteoil (vegetable oils), white sugar and white salt. All of the above products are extremelyrefined and processed foods with no nutritional value and really belong in the poisoncategory. Stay away from them!

Microwave Warning!

We are all creatures of convenience. Using a microwave may seem like agreat way to heat your food but be aware of its health consequences. Again,

in spite of solid scientific studies showing the detrimental long-term effects(cancer) on your health, the FDA and other regulatory bodies refuse to live

up to their responsibility in informing the public of its dangers. Microwaved

foods are extremely acidifying and are proven to be carcinogenic. Using a

microwave is absolutely inconsistent with a healthy life style

Everything you put in your mouth will directly affect the pH and therefore the health of your

body. Processed foods, Meat and poultry, fried and baked foods, fast food, all of themhave an acidifying effect on your body and are detrimental to your health in the long run.It’s not necessary to become a monk on a strict raw food diet of vegetables.

Unless you eat a primarily raw diet, your food is devoid of food enzymes which help yourbody to digest the food you eat and supplementing it would make sense. Being moreconscious of your food choices is important if you are serious about getting better andmaintaining your health. A good book on the subject is Alkalize or Die by Dr. Theodore A.Baroody. It is easy to read with simple to follow guidelines.




http://www.natural-candida-cleanse.com/links/alkalize-die-book

http://www.natural-candida-cleanse.com/links/alkalize-die-book






Even when you are very conscious about your food choices there are some unfortunaterealities of the times we live in. Never before has the nutritional value of our food been sodevaluated and laden with toxins. Even though I am not a big believer of supplements as acrutch it is vital that you meet all of your nutritional needs by taking a whole foodsupplement. We need more antioxidants today in order to have an adequate defenseagainst the increased attack of environmental and food toxins on our system.

Toxin free and a healthy environmentWe already touched on the importance of reducing the toxic overload on our bodies byeliminating as much toxicity from our home (and environment) as possible. The assumptionof most people is that using natural toxin free products is either not that important or arenecessarily more expensive then over the counter items at your local supermarket orgrocery. If you look at your monthly budget for household and personal hygiene productsyou will find that choosing to buy natural household products isn’t that much moreexpensive. It just requires that you buy more in bulk to avoid retail prices at your localhealth food store and research the different online outlets for natural products.

Exercise and plenty of restExercise has many important benefits but there is one in particular many people seem tobe unaware of. We all know that our heart is responsible for pumping blood around ourbody through an intricate network of veins and arteries. We also have another veryimportant network and that is our lymph system which is responsible for eliminating wasteproducts and potentially hazardous toxins from our bodies.

As opposed to our circulatory system for our blood, the lymph system does not have aheart to pump the lymph fluids around our body. The only way it can do this is when amuscle is actually contracted and literally squeezes the fluids out. In other words, onlythrough physical exertion is our lymph system able to flush toxins from our body and keep

us clean on the inside.

Exercising does not mean you have to become a health nut. For some reason, in thiscountry you are either a complete health nut or a coach potato and there seems to benothing in between. Healthy can mean going for a walk everyday and it does not have tobe strenuous at all. Do something you enjoy and you will soon enough make a habit out ofit and forget to think of it as exercise.

Rest and sleep is also something we seem to have collectively relegated to the category ofan unfortunate necessity of life. Plenty of good sleep and adequate rest does not belong onthe bottom of your priorities list. Chronic sleep disorders are a serious problem and have adirect effect on not only your mood but your body’s ability to heal and maintain its health.Try going to bed earlier and getting up earlier.

The best quality of sleep is that we get before midnight. Find some time during the day ifonly a few moments to take some time out and actively relax. Without good rest and sleepour body will assume we are in an emergency and our sympathic nervous (fight or flight)system will be constantly activated.









Spiritual and Emotional balanceIt is important to be gentle with yourself. To realize that all of your self-judgments arelearned and not something you were born with. It’s the psychic and emotional toxicity wepass on from one generation to the next. The grand illusion we create for ourselves to feelsafe in this world strung together with our judgments. Breaking this cycle starts with therealization you are intrinsically valuable and worthy of love. It’s something we all are in

need of practicing and it does take effort. Find a practice you are comfortable with andincorporate it diligently into your life. Whether it is prayer or meditation, find ways to stoptime and be still and give your mind a holiday.

By following the guidelines above and creating some different habits perhaps, you will findthat as you regain your health that you will feel more serene and calm. There is nodisconnect between your body and your emotional being. Out of personal experience youwill notice that as you detox, re-oxygenate and allow your body to find its healthy balanceagain, your thinking will be clearer, intuition sharpens and feel in general more serene withyourself.



APPENDIX A - CANDIDA HEALING PROTOCOL ACTION PLAN

If you plan to fail, chances are that’s exactly

where you will find yourself!

1) Determine severity of conditionComplete the Candida questionnaire in back of this book appendix A and take intoconsideration any other information you have from any health practitioner forexample. If you are suffering from any serious degenerative disease the basicprotocol of detoxing and restoring a healthy digestive environment remains thesame.

2) Identify & eliminate causes of your problemsUse the “healing versus hurting” worksheet at appendix B and check from theexisting list what is relevant for you and cross out what is not (add to the list whererelevant). This is a great exercise to become more aware of all of the different

factors currently influencing your health right now and those areas to focus on.

Having made honest inventory of all of the influence on your health (positive andnegative) you will find it a lot easier to make the changes where required and takecontrol of your own healing. Focus on those things you can do right now withouthaving to wait for something external to happen. For a lot of people it is diet which isreally fundamental to any healing protocol. Don’t be a perfectionist, take it one stepat a time.

For fastest symptom relief you will want to clean out your colon and the specialCandida cleansing probiotics. See the next step for specific details

3) Detoxify colonStart on the first day by taking 4 capsules of the oxygen colon cleanser before goingto bed with some (purified) water preferably with some freshly squeezed lemon orlime. If you do not have at least three bowel movements the following day increasedose by two capsules each night till you do. Maintain this dose for the next seven toten days.

After you have finished the container you need to maintain at least one good bowelmovement per day to ensure proper elimination of toxins and to prevent discomfortas a result of a healing crisis. A healing crisis occurs only when you are detoxingfaster and more toxins are released then your body is able to effectively eliminate.

Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body flush outaccumulated toxins.

(Adding Cellfood to all of your drinking water is an excellent way to support and stimulateyour body’s detox process but is not a requirement.)







4) Restore intestinal Flora and boosting your immune functionOn the second day after using the oxygen colon cleanser, assuming you have atleast 3 bowel movement the previous day, take one dose of the special CandidaCleansing Probiotics with your lunch.

Start taking two doses per day after roughly 4 to 6 weeks(one in the morning and

evening). If you start to experience the onset of old symptoms such fatigue andheadaches drop back to one dose per day and wait a week before increasing thedosage.

Ironically symptoms can come back by either dropping to a lower daily dosage or byincreasing it. It is very important to listen to your body and adjust the dosage as gothrough the process of eliminating the pathogenic candida and restoring yourintestinal environment.

5) Maintain your healthMaintaining your health requires you to be conscientious of your choices and be

sensitive to what your body is telling you. The more healthy and in tune to your bodyyou become, the more difficult it becomes to ignore what your body is telling you. Itbecomes increasingly difficult to make poor food choices without feeling anuncomfortable physical response.
