Infections of this kind and others are devastating to the immune system and brain. The one I picked up, has been even worse than the mercury, as it has not enabled/allowed me to detox/heal as I did in the past (even if it was agonising to do it).

It has not been diagnosed, not known what it is, so as for now, I just have the candida diet and it does make "some" difference. Not it's not a cure, but it's a stabiliser for me and because of this diet, I have now been able to go out of the house, go on a course and start working.

I still suffer yes, but at least it's "something" and without treating candida with the infection I have on top of it, I was close to suicide. I also was not eating properly, lost my appetite from being so ill and was often bedridden. The candida diet pulled me out of a more serious situation. So yes it is very important, because it not only helps reduce yeast/fungus (which increases in any infection/immune suppression), but it also reduces that extra toxicity, which takes a load off the immunity which is already challenged enough. It is not just for candida, but the entire body.

metal detox "can" help too, but probably won't get far with infections like this. The body doesn't tend to respond too well to much unfortunately, but efforts with diet/detox "may" help and it's worth a try.

I'm sorry dental holocaust that the metal detox and candida diet has proved useless for you! I also don't get far either since I got this infection, but again, the diet at least keeps a "few" things at bay and has at least given me a bit more health than I had before (not much, but a bit compared to what I was is pretty significant).

When I just had mercury poisoning, I was able to detox and the candida diet made at times, dramatic improvements for me and health was something I gained along the way. That's not the same for me these days. Infections are a terrible thing!
