on the candida diet day3 and stomach cramps I can't take probiotics I was wondering what else i could take ?

Hi Clerty
I know about the stomach cramps I have had them for months. Anxiety I am informed is part of this illness. I fight with it every day. The best I can tell you about the cramps is to try Mag Phos cellsalts in a 6X--they are for muscle cramps and seem to help me.
Your health food store sells them and they are pretty inexpensive. 4 under the tongue every 15 minutes until cramps subside up to 4 doses. A warm heating pad seems to help too.
Doctor has me on Xanax for anxiety but it does nothing for the depression.
Since most Candida patients are magnesium deficient the mag phos is actually a help.
Haven't solved any of the problems yet but I keep on trying. There is a gal on this board goes by shepschic that seems very upbeat and I find her postings very helpful.
My biggest problem aside from the pain is the terrible bloat and inflammtion in the stomach.
It started when I took the anti-fungals and has never let up. Every day I hope it will go away but so far no luck. My allergy panel came back that I have reaction to all foods, so maybe that is part of my problem. I have been rigid on the diet and find myself overwhelmed sometimes, but I keep praying for the day that things get better and stay the course.
Support and encouragement are very important.
Pro biotics can cause bloating in themselves -lower your dose but keep taking, after a short time you will not have so much trouble. If you are taking capsules open them up and devide the dose. I did this in the beginning.
Good Luck

Why can't you take probiotics and what else do you take supplement wise?

I am not sure why they dont agree with me I take samento and cumunda!

Recommend combining nutrition and energy medicine to beat Candida (recover your immune system):

Use Three-Lac, Digestinal, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Primal Defense, and the Harmonic Quad 5 with Antenna. Because the candida diet can accelerate the recovery process, stay on it for the first 3 to 6 months. After 6 months add the Harmonic Quad with Antenna and gradually experiment with adding different foods to your diet, continue to avoid refined sugar for at least 2 years or longer.

"Not only have our Candida problems been eliminated, but we now eat fruit, pasta, cereal, bread, cheese or can have a glass of wine with dinner. No food is taboo anymore (although we still don't go crazy with sugar). But what a joy it was to return to that kind of freedom in eating. Our sleep is deeper, our thinking clearer and we have more energy and get so much more done."

"In addition to Virgin Coconut Oil, if you suspect that you have a candida yeast overgrowth, supplement your diet with strong probiotics to balance the flora in your intestinal tract and rebuild your immune system. Traditional fermented foods are one of the best additions you can make to your diet, while eliminating refined sugars and simple carbohydrates that the yeasts feed upon."

Harmonic Quad 5 with Antenna, - start using it 10 minutes/day and monitor die-off reaction then gradually increase to overnight. More you use it the more you will interrupt the candida reproductive life cycle which progresses from spore to mycelial form very rapidly. When you contact deb ask about anti candida products as well.

Good Luck!

Has anyone had this experience? In the past week, I added probiotic pills , garlic pills, B vitamins, and Pau D arco pills. I am still itchy all over, and I just feel like I cant get a good breath. Has anyone else felt oxygen deprived as well? I went to the Doc and my oxygen level was perfect both times, and nothing strange about the chest x ray either. But geeesh I feel like i can hardly breathe. ANYONE?? ANYTHING HELP??? HAS ANYONE EVER GOTTEN TO THE POINT OF RECOVERY????? TRUE AND FINISHED RECOVERY???? I am very curious!!! I havent worked in 5 years, because I hardly had the strength to get outta bed and because of depression and anxity attacks.
