Hi Gilda, you seem to have some strong convictions about Canadida being a cause of acne. I have felt that way myself, but it was good to see someone else think the same way. I read some of your posts and have only been able to piece together a few bits of info. I was hoping you could tell me what your full protocol is.
1. I see you take 1000mg Olive Leaf. Do you do this every day as a maintenance or is this for a limited time?
2. Do you use horpito? (I think it's an oil?).
3. Who do you trust to buy these items from.
4. Is the anything else you take internally or any other guidelines that you follow?
You response would be greatly appreciated.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,049,328Hi Smitty, nice to hear from a like-minded individual. It took many years to come to this conclusion!
I take up to 4000 milligrams a day of olive leaf from (gnc.com) when I'm actively breaking out, 500 to 2000 when I'm not. They say it has no side effects except die-off. Basically I'm playing it by ear.
I buy horopito oil from kolorex. Check kolorex.com and/or naturessources.com.
I'm convinced candida AND bacterial infections cause my acne, which all came from Antibiotics .
I'm always on the lookout for natural anti-bacterial supplements. Also, have you heard of the biofeedback computer? (See quantumsource4life.com) My doctor has been using it on me for other reasons, but I'm going to ask him if it can zap my bacterial/candida also. Will keep you informed! Good luck and let me know your progress.

This is a reply to # 1,049,779Thanks for the info Gilda. I was on Antibiotics for about 10 years and while they weren't the strongest, there were a number of different types. I don't remember what they were, but I do remember switching to a lot of different ones. I'm sure that has really screwed up my system.
I do have a couple more questions if you don't mind.
1. How long was it before your skin started clearing up on your protocol?
2. This protocol has obviously not stopped you from breaking out since you still have to take it as a maintenance, but to what degree would you say it has helped you? 50% improvement, 75%? (Yeah, I'm hoping for high numbers).
3. I have a white coated tongue. I use that as the "litmus test" for all of the cleansing programs I have tried. None ever got rid of the coating, so I can only assume that they never actually could work on Candida and therefore were a waste of money. Did you have a coated tongue, if so, does your protocol help with that?
4. Do you take a probiotic?
I have not heard of the biofeedback computer, but I will investigate it.
Two weeks ago I started doing something so overly simplistic. I don't eat great (meat and potatoes guy, but no fast food, coffee, sodas, candy or other refined sugars) but, I don't eat the worst either. One day I decided to buy some fairly expensive fiber mix. It has a lot of good stuff in it including a non-acidic form of Vitamin C. I have ALWAYS avoided C because it would make me break out badly. Sure enough, two weeks into I was not looking too good. The funny thing, tho, is that I was breaking out with Acne that never really finished it's cycle. They were just under the skin. So I decided to take a Centrum multi-vitamin with the fiber and needless to say I'm looking pretty awful right now. My point is, is that maybe the C is what I've needed all along since my body was not doing enough to get rid of the waste from my body. I am somewhat hopeful with this because my face is breaking out in specific areas. It started on my cheeks, which has subsided and now is on my chin and around my mouth. The area around my cheeks does not feel inflamed anymore, but I am also expecting to go in "rounds" with this. I hope it works because I'm not crazy about looking like this and I know I will have some bad scarring from this, but I would like to know once and for all.
Again, thanks for your help.

This is a reply to # 1,050,201I noticed a difference right away; the cysts slowly began breaking open and weeping clear liquid and there was a general lack of inflammation where usually my skin and pimples were itchy and painful. However, it did take weeks to clear the old ones.
Most of the time when I've had a break-out, it's because I foolishly convinced myself I didn't need the olive leaf (or just forgot) and was rudely reminded soon after. It takes alot longer to get rid of the ones already established than to stop the new ones...I end up kicking myself trying to get back into clear mode again.
Actually, I have to say I've had at least 80% improvement until the last time I neglected to take the OL. I think it's all a matter of experimentation to find what's right for your body.
My tongue used to have a heavy coat of white, but now it's a very thin coat...I've read that a thin coat is normal, but I'd feel better with a pink one. At any rate, it has improved. There is a test for candida, of which there are 3 types.
I used to take a probiotic, but it kind of fell off my "schedule" of supplements. I do try to eat a lot of yogurt and used to make my own.
The biofeedback computer is very interesting; lance armstrong used it instead of chemo to fight his cancer. The dr using it on me said it showed alot of toxins in my system, which he proceeded to rid my body of using the computer...I had the worst diarrhea and break-out in the next few days as the toxins left. However, once the initial break-out subsided, my skin was the same - not good- until I started the olive leaf. So ridding my body of toxins didn't help my Acne at all , though the ridding of them made it worse!
I also have a sensitivity to Vit C...I'll have to note any Acne changes with it.
I say try the OL; you'll either notice improvement right away or nothing at all. It's relatively cheap. Let me know.

This is a reply to # 1,050,283Thanks again for the info. I looked at vitaminshoppe.com because there is one close to me so I can go buy the OL. They had a lot of different types available. There were capsules, extract, extract without alcohol and standardized. I guess I will get the capsules.
As for the biofeedback computer, it does sound interesting, but I'm not sure if I like the process of finging someone who uses it. It almost seems like I have given out my medical info and paid before I know who is doing the testing. And at that point, I would only accept a medical doctor, not someone who has passed their training but has no medical background.
I will be getting the OL within the next two days and I will let you know how it works for me.
Thanks again.
