To Jeanne: Merci! I have been enjoying reading your posts also. I felt I must relate my story because nobody has used xylitol for candida overgrowth as far as I know, and it truly helped me from the first time I used it (only a teaspoon). No, I don't really speak French; I'm part French, but live in southwest U.S.A. I watch French movies all the time, trying to pick up the language!
I believe you want to help people, also. I've been reading this forum since I began my regimen, and I have been posting on another forum, healthy awareness (not sure of exact link). I think I'm known as the crazy xylitol lady there! I buy mine at a health food store; I've never seen it anywhere else here. You can also buy it online; it's not cheap but worth it; I'll keep on using it in place of Sugar - no more Sugar ever for me if I can avoid it.
How do you feel? Best of luck to you.
