I find I feel beter eating cakes and sweets. If I had candida I would b e feeling worse right?

I have many silver fillings but maybe I have no allergy?

How does one test for these problems in UK? I had a food test and it doesnt seem accurate as everyone has food intolerances to foods they eat regularly and they just put a packet of nuts on a machine and I had to hold a silver baton while they put a pinprick? How does that test for intolerance and allergy?

I have a few problems that may be subconcious and im not out of the closet so that maybe why I am anxious and depressed? Or can feillings cause it to be worse?

Hey Damo....

Just remember that those yeastie beasties are starving all the time and when they are dying off, they secrete poisons that make us crave sugar, starches, etc. So really that is why they are called comfort foods, cause they satisfy the yeast. So remember when you get those cravings, it is not really a hardship at all to deny them, you are killing the yeastie beasties and doing your body and health a REALLY GOOD DEED.

And have you tried the pumpkin flax muffins, they really do the trick for me, smeared with a bit of almond butter or pumpkin butter if you are really feeling decadent.

Pumpkin Muffins with lots of fibre..

no dairy, no sugar, no gluten
3 T organic olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup pumpkin
Beat these 3 ingredients together, and then add:

3 tsp. stevia dissolved in 1/4c of water
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

Mix the following together and add to the above:
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup ground flaxseed meal (make sure this is as fresh as possible)
1/4 cup amaranth (or your preferred) flour
4 oz. chopped nuts (optional)

Mix all ingredients together quickly and immediately spoon into muffin pan/papers. Mixture will start to expand as lemon juice reacts with baking powder and soda. Bake at 350º for 20 mins. This recipe makes 12 muffins; however, you may also double the recipe and get 18-20 larger size muffins.

Hope this helps,
Sandi

Im trying to do the candida diet as well and have been way too strict.

That recipe sounds really good and will have to try it out sometime.
Thanks

I crave sweets too and believe sugar levels may play a part in how you feel and yes Sandi is right about the yeastie Beasties starving off secrete poisons which make you crave or feel ill.

I would like to know the reliability of food intolerance tests?

I have 10 Sivler fillings but not intolerant to Yeast so does that mean Im ok and not have candida? I have wheat sensitivity though.

Whats the best diagnostic test for mercury and candida?

And is mercury bad in everyone as my bro has many silver fillings and he is a doctor and happily married with 4 kids so not all fillings are bad and some people dont react i guess.

The problem with testing for mercury is that no test is reliable. This is because mercury can be held in the organs and brain and not show up in blood, hair or urine tests. Andy Cutler though does suggest looking at hair test results focusing on mineral transportation. Mercury deranges mineral transportation. He applies a set of counting rules to aid diagnosis. I think though even these are not a 100% especially if supplementing with minerals. My hair tests did not show up a problem even though i know i am toxic

With regard to your brother, peoples teeth apparantly can give off more vapour than others and individuals can excrete at different rates. So if you are a slow excreter and have a lot of amalgams giving off a lot a vapour then you are likely to have mercury collecting in the body.

oh ok thanks.

I will do vapour test from dentist.

My brother has had them in for over 20 years and is fine so he might not be sensitive or have no allergy? Maybe it only affects certain people?
