Yeast and candida..
Question:
Has anyone here tried a yeast-free anti candida diet at all? I have severe stomach cramps and what I thought was IBS-C but a book I have about Candida reads very accurate. Headaches, cramps, constipation, nausea in the morning, bloated stomach… etc. I think I’ll give it a try, but has anyone else? Marc

The Candida stuff is all nonsense.

at the risk of sounding abrasive, unless _you_ can cure me then all cures are "suckers cure’s" are they not? I’ve had this for about 13 years and I am nowhere near getting rid of it. I’ve had almost every test you can imagine (except barium enema) and still no-one has said it’s IBS or offered to help. I imagine at least a few here know why I’m looking at every option to rid myself of this, it’s had me on the verge of breakdown three times in my life due to my largely unconfirmed fears I am dying or have a serious disease. Marc no offence BTW

Here is some draft material (references excluded)… Some years ago, Dr. Orian Truss proposed that the yeast Candida albicans, could make people sick all over. Shortly after that, William G. Crook popularized this no-tion in a book called The Yeast Connection: A Medical Breakthrough. In it, he explains that many nonspecific symptoms (included in his list are a dizzying array of symptoms including common ones like headache, fatigue, and insomnia) are the result of a chronic, often systemic infection by this yeast, a condition commonly referred to as Candida-related complex (CRC). According to his hypothesis, the problem starts from faulty dietary habits (e.g., diets high in refined sugars, alcohol) and consumption of antibiotics and birth control pills. These allow Candida to take hold in the body, producing toxins, which in turn weaken the immune system, causing symptoms. Rather than providing scientific evidence (such as a demonstration of Koch
