The gas from VCO may be a die off symtom as candida produces CO2 and VCO is a powerful anti-fungal- at least I think that is what Bee Wilder would say- I am on her diet for over a month now and everything is going along exactly as she said it would.
Here is what she says of Die off
What are "Die-Off" Symptoms?
Die-off symptoms are "flu-like" symptoms caused by candida being killed off in large numbers, releasing its toxins into the system at one time. These "flu-like" symptoms are a type of healing or detoxifying reaction, also called Herxheimer reaction, that occurs within the body when it is trying to deal with the large numbers of toxins being released.
As the body starts to detoxify it creates flu-like symptoms including headaches, joint and muscle pain, body aches and pains, sore throat, sweating, chills, fever, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, excessive mucus in the lungs, throat, nose, sinuses, etc., along with other types of symptoms. Herxheimer reactions can occur in anyone whenever their body needs to be cleaned up. One person who suffers chronic candida overgrowth and has experienced these reactions many times made the remark, "Got my typical Herx reaction: cold, dizzy, light-headed, faint, can't-really-think-straight feeling." Others describe it as a bone-tired or an ache all over feeling.
These "die-off" symptoms are simply cleansing (detoxing) or healing reactions caused by the body getting rid of candida toxin and/or other types of toxins. This causes increased mucus in all mucus membranes (nose, throat, sinuses, lungs, vagina, intestines, stomach, etc.), along with muscle and/or joint aches and pains, itching, rashes and other eruptions of the skin, headaches, digestive disturbances, etc. It's like that "bad all over feeling" you experienced during a bout with the flu. At time you may feel like you have been drugged, with symptoms similar to a bad hangover. This is because most candida toxins are alcohol in nature, which will cause hangover-type symptoms.
Die-off reactions can start to occur when you change your diet, and particularly as you eliminate foods that feed candida. That is why you start on the diet and supplements first and stay on them long enough to kill off as much as candida possible before starting on antifungals, other than coconut oil which is considered part of the diet. When you are able to consume a total of 6 tablespoons of coconut oil per day without severe die-off reactions you can add one of the other antifungals.
