The Whole Program?
For Uniquity - I know I've seen your posts in other forums over the past couple years, but can't remember where exactly. I wondered if I could pick your brain...I'm currently mostly surfing and occasionally posting in the
Iodine supplementation forum, as I'm working with Dr. Brownstein and taking
Lugol's & Naturethroid for what he is calling Hashimoto's, nodular enlarged thyroid, hormone imbalance.
I am actually seeing him again tomorrow and I'll be asking him what he's currently recommending for candida, bowel stuff, liver/GB, etc. I have been all over curezone for a good 10-12 years, and I have done many different protocols including
Liver Flushing (about 12 of them over a period of a few years), colonics, bowel cleanses, even some UT,
parasite cleanses, homeopathy, herbs, supplements, candida diet, Body Ecology Diet, Specific Carbohydrate Diet (which is the best approximation of my current diet), mostly raw, or some version of a non-processed diet for many years.. and I'm still struggling with what I feel at this point is long term chronic infection with yeast/fungus, pathogenic bacteria &
parasites which are likely contributing to the hormonal issues and pelvic congestion, lymphatic congestion, bloating and digestive issues, vaginal infections, near lifelong chronic headaches esp. with my period....etc. (mother and grandmother the same). Basically still feeling sick and toxic most days (and according to recent hair test, no mercury/heavy metals). The one thing I haven't tried yet is fasting. I get headaches when my blood
Sugar gets low, but wondering if I should at least attempt a juice fast.
I should mention I'm married to a guy who does therapeutic bodywork and I've been getting this kind of work for years, along with good chiropractic, and we are really baffled that I'm not in better shape by now, though I'd probably be much worse off without that work and what I've already done. I don't get enough regular exercise - the one area that's my biggest failing, and it has probably set me back, but it's been tough to motivate with chronic headaches and fatigue.
I need to figure out a truly proper and effective protocol for cleansing and restoring balance, since I don't think I've ever had it. I was sort of sick even as a kid, and it's basically gotten progressively worse (I'm 42 now and basically structure my life around my dietary restrictions, headaches, menstrual cycles), though I have had some good results with things I've done so far. Currently I'm taking Barefoot's LBB and have been regularly using that for several years. I had the "black ropes" appear maybe 6 or 8 years ago with a combination of his de-wormer and an herbal/psyllium
Colon Cleanse product from the health food store, kicking around the idea of trying that again, though the dewormer felt VERY strong and possibly kind of hard on my liver.
Do you have a link to a protocol with time lines, dietary suggestions, products? I've still got a cupboard full of half jars of everything under the sun. My most recent purchase was Lauricidin, since it sounded to be very antimicrobial, and my hunch is I may need something like that. I felt awful on a very small dose, which either means die-off and my liver can't handle it, or maybe too much along with the iodine, not sure.
I looked at the ingredients of your products and they look similar to Schulze but maybe a little different? Maybe it's time to try a new protocol, which hopefully at this point is affordable... I could probably have paid cash for my house if I could get back what I've spent on supplements and natural doctors over the past 20 years.
If you've got a link to a recommended protocol, or have any suggestions, that would be lovely!
