I have spent years looking at this site and I finally need to ask for some practical advice. I've tried every diet I feel. I thought my eczema was candida, food allergies (sensitivity to milk, cut out gluten and it did nothing), mercury poisoning from Amalgam which I still have, reaction to birth control pills, bad diet. I've tried to correct all of these things and really stuck with them for months and saw very little change.
I did a major lifestyle change at 23, with supplements and good eating went vegan and after a while forgot I even had eczema (just dry skin, easily remedied with natural lotions), then I had a medical procedure at 25 where I went under on anesthesia and had a drip antibiotic. After I went on birth control again. I was in an old house with a wooden room that smelled musty and BAM it was back. I had started eating regular food again, had moved from the US to France and probably wasn't keeping up with my diet due to a lot of traveling for that year. I have had eczema since I was a baby, patches, rashes. I was even tutored at home one year in high school because I could not handle the mold in the heating system. I have always had problems with allergies as well, was always sick and on Antibiotics . I spent more time on pharmaceuticals than not growing up, but have stopped for several years now, and have tried to have a clean lifestyle. Anyway, I've had migrating eczema, every year it would come back in a different place, but last summer it was different, I was COVERED. Head to toe scratching, crying, ripping my skin open. Every night (still) I sleep with socks on my hands to avoid night scratching.
I have worn fake acrylic nails for 6 months because they dont break the skin as much, I have spent thousands of euros on LUSH product, natural oils, supplements, candida cures, spirulina, organic foods, non chemical cleaners and beauty products. I stopped wearing makeup, stopped drinking beer, white wine, soda, and eating refined Sugar and nothing from cow's milk. I've tried every diet possible, short of starving myself.
All of this and I still scratch constantly, can't be intimate with my boyfriend (and it's killing our relationship because it's been a year and thats one half of the time we've been together) because my skin hurts and I'm itchy and dry constantly.
We are currently in the process of moving because the bathroom at our apartment is full of mold and humidity (and I try cleaning and drying and it is impossible to get dry/ mold free!). For the past year I bathed in that bathroom and broke out in hives with every shower and bath. Our room was directly next to the bathroom so for the last couple weeks we've been sleeping on the futon. I commute to his parents house where I sleep and bathe, but I still must sleep at our apartment because I cannot get public transportation nights when I work (I am a bartender) and my apartment is around the corner. At 3 in the morning a 20euro cab is not an option for me. I have noticed improvement while not there for several days, but when I'm back I have problems with my asthma/allergies/skin again.
My hair started falling out in clumps and I have quite bad sebhoreaic? dermatitis it seems. And my gums pour blood (it's a horrorshow) when I brush my teeth. I have just done ACV soak and baking soda shampoo so I will see how that fares. I am moving to a place with no bathtub, but for the time being I may be able to ask my boyfriends parents if I can have a bath a week at their place. They have already done so much and the bath is in their bathroom and I hate to impose myself anymore, I'm already living in their apartment!
Anyway, sorry for the book, I'm sure there's stuff I left out but what I really want to know is if anyone has experienced something similar and gotten relief. I'm willing to try anything, and try stuff I've tried before, except acupuncture/chinese herbs, I don't think they work for me as I did it for 6 months and saw no improvement, and I just want my life back! I'm an itchy mess, at work, on the bus, in public. I'm red flack and it's embarrassing and uncomfortable and I'm at the end of my rope. I feel as though I'm on the verge of losing my boyfriend as well because people can only take so much....
I have a very open mind. Thank you in advance to anyone who took the time to read my story and can possibly offer any advice.

This is a reply to # 1,876,163I had dry, itchy skin with white spots covering my entire back, chest, under arms, and stomach for over a decade. It was socially humiliating and infuriating to deal with. It consumed my life in everyway imaginable. I tried everything known to man to cure it, sometimes to the extreme for example direct applications of essential oil of oregano, urine soaks, raw garlic poultices, etc.
Things finally changed for me when I came across a story of some woman curing her chronic skin problems by going on... the atkins diet! Now I don't recommend this, obviously, but there is one critical element about the atkins diet that contributed to her cure: you don't eat any carbs (except some greens here and there). So I said, what the hell, ive done everything else so i will try a variation of it. So I ate only green leafy vegetables and some eggs and fish and voila- massive candida die-off.
I then dropped the meat and just went 100% greens. Buckets and buckets of intestinal fungus came flying out of my rectum for endless months.
I was so consumed with eliminating all the candida from my intestines that I comepletely forgot about my skin problems. Lo and behold, it dissipated to the extent my intestines became free of candida. Treat the root cause of an ailment and you treat the symptoms automatically. Those of us trying to heal ourselves are all guilty of spending way to much time, money, and energy on supplements, applications, and wimpy little herbs hoping it will solve our deep and severe complications. It doesn't work this way. We have to identify the root causes of an issue, and hit them HARD.
You said "I've tried every diet possible, short of starving myself." Well, you may have to reach that "starving yourself" point to weaken the candida sufficiently to kill it and shift the tide of battle. For example, when I ate *mostly* greens but still included some nuts and seeds, the dieoff halted entirely. Think about that for a moment.
Along with the all greens diet I also took a great supplement called "candex" which digests the cell wall of candida. It is the only supplement I found to work effectively against candida. Others like coconut oil worked here and there, but not nearly to the effect of candex + all greens. I should note: candex was completely ineffective without the all green diet.
Eventually I regained my strength, built myself back up, and have achieved spontaneous candida dieoff while continuing to eat carbs. Freeing my bile flow with Liver Flushing and lowering my mercury levels with DMSA chelation helped with this, but remember I had to first shift the tide of battle and take back my body and it was the greens + candex that did this.
Now I have cured my skin ailment, along with other huge and debilitating issues like chronic sinusitis, chronic fatigue, and an inability to assimilate nutrients. It all started from wanting my skin back. Now I have amazing and richly tanned skin to show off the beautifully sculpted muscles I gained after returning to a normal diet and growing the muscle I should have had all my life were it not for systemic candidiasis. But believe me, NO ONE ELSE created this change for me except MYSELF. In retrospect, I feel as though I never should have gotten systemic candidiasis to begin with.

Best of wishes and I hope you create the healing you long for.

This is a reply to # 1,876,165Thank you so much for your reply! Can you give me some examples of greens, or is it just any green vegetable? How long did you have to do it before you could reintroduce meats, eggs, etc? It's inspiring to know that you've cured yourself. It does make sense that a pure diet would allow nothing bad to grow inside. Thanks again.

This is a reply to # 1,876,195No problem cameragirl- it is my deep pleasure and sanctified duty to share with others what I have found to actually work against such a debilitating condition.
The greens that I found to have worked the best are collard greens and kale. The less stems you include, the better. Green cabbage I found to hault die-off, although some list it as anti-candida.
The effectiveness of the greens lies in the fact that they provide an intensely alkaline environment which sickens candida. Although candida can survive in environments as high as 10 in the pH in alkalinity, it still has a crippling effect on the demon. The low level of carbohydrates also make candida very weak and forces it to resort to cruel survival tactics against its own colonies- syphoning energy and lifeforce from the newer, weaker colonies in order to keep the stronger, older ones alive. And this predicates the order of die-off: newer, smaller colonies first exit the intestines because they find their chances of survival higher in the toilet bowl than in your yeast killing machine. Then deeper into the cleanse, the older colonies belch out their last breath of acrid gas, release their ancient roots from your intestines, and tumble humiliatingly downward toward the toilet bowl. It is a beautiful process.
These massive footlong colonies were released many weeks into my cleanse and only after buckets of smaller colonies first died off:
and
Now you can get an idea of why superficial skin conditions seem so "incurable"... because they are stemming from a deeper problem.
Many blessings on your healing path

This is a reply to # 1,876,328Eating too much whole greens seemed to just sit in my stomach for hours upon hours. They only worked if i juiced them , slightly boiled the juice and drank it on a empty stomach.
I agree with cargo.. High alkalinity produces a suitable environment for fungal candida. Its beneficial acids that keep fungal candida in check. What about most green veggies that candida does not like? If anything green leafy veggies are usually the first item in your fridge to get moldy. The lack of beneficial acids(preserving acids) proabably explains that.

In my fridge, just the opposite is true. In fact I have NEVER seen mold on things like arugula, romaine lettuce, iceburg lettuce, parsley, kale, dandelion greens, etc. If left long enough they start to wilt or rot (especially prewashed bags of lettuce) but never any mold.
Mold will much sooner grow on things with more sugar or carbs or calories: bread, cake, ketchup, cheese, carrots, leftover meats. You name it.

This is a reply to # 1,876,524Ive never seen mold grow on ketchup or leftover meat(nothing added to it). When exposed to moisture spinach will get mold faster than almost anything that i know of. I think it depends on the food item and how it can harbor moisture which can promote mold. Also depends on the preservatives and acids in the food as well. Bread harbors moisture very well gets moldy fast. Oils can sit on the shelves for months and never get moldy. Sugar water can sit in the fridge and not get moldy. Carrot juice which is very alkaline has to be used up very quickly. It just seems the more alkaline the substance is the faster it gets moldy/goes bad.

You are right, moisture is the biggest factor, not sugar content. Look at wallboard after a flood. It can get very moldy not from sugar content but from presence of moisture. Sugar content is secondary as the moisture is required to get the growth going.
Also, people should keep in mind that the practice of culturing food was started to preserve the food as the acids control the growth of molds, fungi, and other pathogens.

This is a reply to # 1,876,541In one of your posts you say that beef and dairy can have a lot of estrogens. Is this found mostly in the fat of the animal meat? Is it mostly just beef that contains these estrogens or does other meat have some as well.
Do you have any reasearch that shows the detectable levels of estrogens in beef and dairy?

The method I used to prepare the greens was a light stir-fry. I found slightly cooked greens to be more effective than raw.
You said "High alkalinity produces a suitable environment for fungal candida. Its beneficial acids that keep fungal candida in check"
I disagree that alkalinity produces a suitable environment for fungal candida. My candidiasis developed during periods of extreme acidosis in my life.
As for beneficial acids, remember that the presence of beneficial acids is not correlated to the overall pH of the intestines. In other words, you can have an alkaline pH and still have substantial beneficial acids present.
My candida die-off became spontaneous after my 7th liver flush (which was the first one to procure green bile flow) because of the constant alkaline environment. The candidiasis overgrowth developed in part due to occluded bile flow from intrahepatic stones, which the liver flushing successfully removed.

This is a reply to # 1,876,165There is truth in this - I actually beat back my candida in a similar way - with tons of greens and some meat. I used candex for awhile and also found it to have good results, but went with nystatin (something my kid could take too).
I stopped all vitamins, probiotics, supplements, protein powders, etc. because they just weren't helping and possibly being utilized by the fungus.
I did start ingesting diatomaceous earth, which flushed out some tapeworms!
I have never even tried to exist on nothing but greens for months, but have no doubt that the human body can adapt to this.
I'm inspired to go on a greens fast just to see if I have any dormant colonies hiding in there that need blasting out (I most likely do)!
I think it all comes down to our human condition of wanting a quick fix, something that will fix us up without getting us out of our comfort zone or really having to change our habits or lifestyle.- Greens & juice fasting - check out t... unyquity
