Re: Sugar alcohol in gum

I must say that although it's admirable to see people so concerned about their health, it also can reach paranoid proportions. It's important to be persistent in fighting candida, but if you have a good diet and a stick of gum is enough to take you down, you should probably be in a hospital. I feel the same way about bread. I eat plenty of lean meat and vegetables, drink no alcohol and eat no dessert. So I really doubt that having an occasional turkey or chicken sandwich on whole wheat is going to send everything crashing down, which is the kind of hysterical view of some people here.
