OB

I don't know if we will ever figure this whole thing out. I know for a fact I have candida and have had it for quite some time and this is my second time. Now it could have very well been exacerbated by a lack of minerals or caused by the lack of minerals. Or the candida could have caused the deficiences. We may never know what came first, but obviously they both make the other worse and worse.

I truly believe 95% of my problems are related to mineral deficiences. And mineral troubles take time to fix. Of course , when you have candida they take even longer because of malabsorbtion issues.

In any case, I take about 40 drops of concentrace daily throughout the day. I also take a multi 3 times a day that adds up to 100 mg of Mg and I take extra Mg that totals 400 Mg. Mg is best absorbed in many small doses so I spread it out throughout the day. Basically I pop pills with every meal and before I go to bed. As soon as I drop off taking the Mg , the burning feelings start to return. For instance a few nights ago I had realized I had forgotten to take all my vitamins for the day , by nightime the burning was already starting. I took everything...about 30 pills right before bed. But I felt lousy in the morning, I am sure it was because most of it was not absorbed. Magnesium needs as many small doses as possible.

Anyway , there are lots of ways to get magnesium. There is a magnesium oil recommended by Dr. Dean that I used also when I was very ill. Spray it on, leave it dry, then wash off. Or you can put it on the back of your hands and tops of feet a few times a day and it absorbed thru the skin bypassing the digestive tract completely.

I think Calcium is also as important, to me anyway. But prior to taking mg I was a mess. A real mess. And Mg takes a long time to get back up to normal; amounts. of course I had to catch a stupid stomach virus and I am sure I lost most of what I had acomplished with all the diarrhea I had. Oddly, everyone else also had vomitting, but not me. I was not even sick to my stomach, just had terrible diarrhea, like 10-15 times every night about 20 minutes apart. Everything I ate came right out. I was not even taking vitamins during this time because I was so afraid of causing more bowel movements. Although part of me thought,this might be good since food is passing thru so quick, candida might not be getting anything. So maybe it actually helped, but it did drain me of alot of nutrients. I basically started all over again the second week of March, and I am playing catch up now.

In any event, I say it really makes no difference which came first, they both must be addressed if we are to get well. You told me once before that you felt good while taking concentrace...have you started taking it again? If not maybe you should consider it. It has helped me tremendously, and you are partly the reason I started with it because you said it helped you.

I am also going to start on a green drink, green pills, ph booster for my water as well as eating tons of yogurt. I am going to punch its lights out or at least give it a run for its money!
