Re: My controversial take on Candida problems
I have to agree with NYCkid. Unless you've had candida, you have no idea what it is like. Carbs make me worse.
Sugar makes me worse. Meats, nuts and veggies don't bother me. The kind of info Anthony was giving out to people could be detrimental to their health. And the fact that he doesn't post here anymore leads me to believe that the mods here on CZ finally realized they could have a real mess on their hands by letting him continue. Walk a day in our shoes before giving out info.
Candida has been scientifically proven to be caused by sugar,
Antibiotics , steroid use, weakened immune system, poor gut health, cavitations and heavy metal issues. Also, if you have genetic mutations like MTHFR, that will also make you prone to candida.. But clearly you are a maverick scientist, proving all the other established gut scientists wrong with your ground breaking research, so please, by all means, share with us your educational background specializing in candida. (Rolls eyes!)
Please take the time to actually do the research before coming out with hokey, armchair guesswork, when you clearly don't know the first thing about it. It's insulting to those of us here who actually have and do live with it. The more you argue with people, the more you just make yourself look bad and piss people off. My mom has cancer. Imagine how she would feel if I went up to her and said, "mom, I know exactly how you feel, even though I've never had cancer. Oh and I'm sure your cancer is being caused by fats." I would never ever be so presumptuous, insulting, insensitive and rude. And to attack the person above blaming his paleo diet for his response to you? Your response was spoken like a 5 year old. You want people to take you seriously? Do your homework, don't talk down to people and be condescending about their condition and when you can be civil and educated about this, THEN consider coming here to post something worth reading.
