Re: a bit of history into why I though I was passing my colon, but I can't be sure. does anyone know what that would look like?

Mary,

I am not familiar with all the cleansing at all I have been having problems with Candida since early Dec 2002 though as I look back I am sure I was having symptoms on and off for many years. My point is that I am learning. I just wanted to tell you about some of the information that is helping me. Renew Your Life by Brenda Watson who is a colon therapist written in conjuction with a gi specialist/surgeon is an EXCELLENT book which thouroughly explains the digestive system she does also sell products for cleansing as well but the book is so informative it really explains what has been happening in my body. Also you may want to look at the BodyEcology Diet written by Donna Gates she has excellent information about diet, what to eat for a digestive system that is in serious disrepair, food combining a little about eating right for your blood type. These two books are so good. They are each around $20 and available at amazon. I hope that you get them I really think that they can help you get well. Also it might help to check out the SCD diet as well www.scdiet.org it is a diet recommended for people with Chron's, colitis, IBS etc. which most of us with candida have some symptoms. It talks a lot about what foods are hard on the digestive system. They say fruits are o.k. which obiviously are not for us but I found some helpful information there. I wish you all the best.
