Hi Lp,

Our internal cleansing program is for 30 days. All supplements come together and you take them at the same time. Whether or not you need to take our program for another month depends on the amount of toxins in your body, if this is your first cleanse, how you feel and so on. We have a lot of people who order products on a monthly basis, others do the program two or three times a year. It's your choice.

"Maintain" is great for those who need extra fiber. "Enhance" our super green formula is very popular for those who like the extra energy it provides and the boost to the immune system. "Mens Support" and "Womens Support" are very popular.

Once you get your body back in balance you will not need to suplement your diet, assuming you eat properly. Always food first. Supplements are here for your convenience and to speed things along. Most people don't eat a diet full of the herbs and spices necessary to maintain good health. A diet high in fiber rich foods, raw veggies and spices is unfortunatley the exception, not the norm.

I know how tough it is to be a working mom with kids because I am one also. Budgeting your time and money while trying to provide healthy nutritious meals can be a challenge, but it can be done. It's unfortunate that healthy, organic food can be so expensive, but you can work around these obsticles. At the end of the day if you can say "I did my best"....thats all you can do. I juggle two teenagers, a five year old and my husband. I have the housework to contend with and a full time job. I do my best to provide healthy meals that my family will look forward to eating. Sometimes I cook quick and easy meals, other times they are quite time consuming.

In my opinion the best way to manage your food money and prepare heathy meals for your family is to plan ahead and eat for the seasons, meaning eat foods that are in season where you live. They are the freshest and the most economical.

You know your families likes and dislikes so shop weekly and make good tasting meals that don't take up a lot of your time and money. Rachel Ray (30 minute meals) has great ideas for the busy family. Incorporate some of her family style recipes that allow for seasonal veggies, herbs and spices. Frozen Vegetables are a smart and healthy choice. Frozen vegetables are nutritious and economical. Whole wheat pasta is not expensive. You don't have to buy organic, just buy whole wheat. You are making a healthy choice and doing the best you can. If your family likes to eat chicken or beef then buy the cheaper cuts but buy healthier brands. Example; If you want to buy chicken go to Costco and buy a package of thighs ($5.00 - $6.00) there are about 15 to 18 pieces in a package...very economical and it goes along way.

Organic and natural is always best, but sometimes it's not available or it's cost prohibitive.

Do you have a Trader Joes nearby? I love that store! They have great prices - very fair. They provide a good variety when purchasing certain products. Take milk for example; you can by TJ's milk with no hormones or anti-biotics or you can buy organic. Either is a healthier altenative to regular processed milk. The organic just costs a lot more. The choice is nice for those on a budget. Hopefully other stores will catch on to this soon.

Candida can be difficult to overcome. The cravings and doing without is a true test of willpower. You can do it!!! You just need to think positive and keep the correct foods on hand. This doesn't have to be expensive or inconvenient.

Take control of your diet by preparing most of your food yourself. Eat nutrient-rich, organic, minimally-processed whole foods. Optimize your intake of essential-fatty-acid rich food sources through the use of healing fats and oils. Eat a wide variety of foods. There are support groups out there and recipe swapping if you have the time.

Here are some recipes that I have used before. Most come from the internet. There are a lot of great recipes on the web if you look around. I am also happy to post them if you prefer.

Stir fry chicken with chili powder in oil and butter until nicely browned. Remove chicken and stir fry veggies in the chicken juices. Add more butter or oil if necessary. Grind the whole spices together and add 1/2 of it to the veggie mixture and simmer for a few minutes. Add some liquid if necessary. Add the chicken back and the broth as well. You may want to add more broth if you like it more soupy. Simmer for about an hour and then add the drained beans and cilantro and cook until heated through.

1 T. Fresh Tyme
1 t. Sea Salt

4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

Brownies for candida diet:

1/2 c raw sunflower seeds (ground up in blender)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 c *corn starch or arrowroot powder
3/4 tsp stevia/chicolin mix*** (approx)
3 Tablespoons *wondercocoa
3/4 Tablespoon oil
1/4 c water
1 egg
2 Tablespoon vegetable glycerine

Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly. Add wet ingredients and stir just until mixed – be careful not to stir it too much because it will change the consistency. Fry in skillet like pancakes or else pour into a brownie pan & bake in preheated oven @ 350 degrees about 10 min.

***The stevia/chicolin mix is an approximate amount. So be careful with how much you use, adjust it to your own taste. Just make sure you don't stir the mix too much. You can sprinkle it on top when they are done if desired.

Sweet potato pancakes:

2 cups flour(aramanth, buckwheat and spelt would work best)
1/2 cup cooked, well mashed sweet potato/kumara
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
sprinkle of black pepper
your favorite herbs
2 tbsp oil of choice
some water

Mix together the dry ingredients, then combine with the oil and kumara as well as poss(should form rough 'breadcrumbs' as when making pastry). Add water a little at a time until the ingredients form a dough that is soft but not sticky. I've left the water amount deliberately blank cos it varies with the flour and humidity - you'll have to experiment a little!

Make into balls and roll out into circles as thin as you can without breaking them - this depends on flour, warmth and humidity too, but 3 or 4 millimetres shouldn't be a prob!

Heat a little oil in a frying pan and cook gently on each side until golden.


Mayonaise:

6 large *egg yolks
2 Cups cold pressed safflower oil
1/4 Cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 Cup Water
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Beat yolks for 2 minutes in a food processor or with electric mixer. Pour 1 cup of oil into a measuring cup. Very slowly drizzle a thin stream of oil fromthe cup into the yolks, while beating at high speed, until all has been used; mixture will become thick. Drizzle in remaining cup, still beating at h igh speed. Add lemon juice,water, salt, and mustard; mix. Spoon mixture into a wide mouthed quart jar with tight fitting lid. Refrigerate until ready to use


Chicken salad:

Approx. one cup of cut up roasted chicken
Cut up one organic hard-boiled egg and add, plus about 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds.
Add enough plain organic yogurt to make a chicken salad consistency.

Sprinkle with a little of each if desired:

red pepper
garlic powder
sea salt
onion salt
black pepper


Guacamole:

Cut the avocados in 1/2, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl. Immediately add the lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.


Veggie patties:

I have this wonderful recipe for veggie patties
1(15oz) can of cannelini beans drained and rised
1tbsp lemon juice
1 free range egg
1/3 cup of kamut powder(about 2/3 of puffed kamut in blender)

It's very important to address good colon care while on a candida diet. Eliminating toxins from the colon will promote good colon health. If your colon is clogged with toxic waste it needs a good cleansing to get back in balance. Without a clean colon the immune system will be forced to continually battle candida and the metatoxins candida produces.

The standard American Diet is high in red meat, over processed foods, refined sugar and flour. Dairy is also consumed in high amounts. This along with other factors can cause the colon to become impacted with waste. Cleaning your colon is crucial to getting your body back into balance.

Making healthy choices maybe difficult at first but if you stick with it they will become habits.


Namaste,
