Candida Treatment: Colon Cleanse

Over the years I've read healthcare articles that link disease with conditions that begin in the colon. A person can carry around anywhere from 5 to 25 pounds of old, dried fecal waste and mucus. Not only does this prevent the absorption of nutrients, which leads to deficiencies and problems with the immune system, it  also provides perfect conditions for an overgrowth of yeast. Therefore, cleansing the colon of yeast and its toxins is an essential part of the treatment.

To summarize the protocol used by Colet Lahoz, RN, MS, LAc, the colon cleansing program in Phase I consists of :

• Caprylic acids and safflower oils, which make up a product called Caproyl, which kills fungus on contact.
• Psyllium powder (both husks and seeds), which moves the caprylic acid through the intestinal track and scrape away the accumulated fecal build-up. It also reduces the toxic overload caused by the dead and dying candida.
• Liquid bentonite is an inert mineral silicate which absorbs intestinal waste products without being absorbed into the system. It will carry toxins out of the system.
• Beneficial bacteria must be re-implanted in the colon. Acidophilus is a good place to start. 

I expect the products to arrive tomorrow. Dosing will be twice per day. I've started the diet, and other than sighing at the lack of cheese and coffee,

Food yesterday was:

Celery and almond butter for breakfast.
Spinach salad with chicken for lunch. Used olive oil and pepper for dressing.
Dinner: A tuna casserole (tuna, green pepper, onion, slivered almonds and olive oil) and salad with tomatoes, avocado, green onion, celery and dressed with sesame seed oil )

Not bad. I feel empty, but not ravenous. Less bloated. Already noticed reduction in ankle swelling.
Tomorrow, the colon cleanse!
