Re: Out of curiosity...survey...

ketchup, I think you've shed light on something that many of us here tend to not think about, about the body being able to heal itself. I think this could be very true, especially if it's not a major underlying disease causing the Candida.

I have Candida because I had Lyme Disease and took Antibiotics for it, for over one year straight. I wish now I had learned about the alternative methods for treating Lyme disease (herbs, high amounts of Vitamin C and salt, detox baths) instead of taking all of those Antibiotics . I was reading a web site about Lyme disease by a major Lyme disease alternative practitioner, the one who recommends Vit C and salt for treatment, and he said that the most brilliant doctors in the world can't even heal a paper cut, let alone cure Lyme disease. The body must do this itself. I think this applies to Candida as well. You may be able to do things to aid the body in healing, and maybe supplements can help, or de-stressing, or eating healthy, but that's not going to be what "cures" you, in the end. Tweet
