yes it is bascially about willpower, because without it, without putting ur foot in it, u wont go anyway. thats obvious. Im saying discussing a candida problem in terms of willpower is a miss. as sean said u always have the will but do u have the power?
In my case candida often affects my mind so strong that i cannnot plan or do anything rational, let alone stick to a diet regimen. and im not even talking about serious cheating. like i woke up today ttoally catatonic and i just needed to drink the bottle of kefir, i know i shoudnt be doing this, but only after my metabolism has 'woken up' along with digestion etc, otherwise the food will not get digested and get putrified and feed candida, but i couldnt contain myself and drank it all.
only some time later now do i see i wouldnt do that. my mind has just woke up. (ps. dont kno how about u u but everyday i feel cattaonic from candida in the morning). in the past when goind on a diet the starving andida and brain fog would hit mie so hard that i wasnt thinking rationaly, had no object in my mind to go for no determination and often gave into soemthing. and then i eat soemthing like a hungry dog that i shoudlnt and te whole die off eraction stops. yet soemtimes my brain manages to hold on with the determination mode still on, and then i pull through.

im just saying willpower is a bad category to be discussing thing in when yeats issues so terribly affect the mind, often times its unimaginable. candida has alot of grat tools to keep u in a vicous loop, especially if u have a serious case of it to begin with.

and for the record: a heorin addict MUST go thru detox, we MUST go htorugh diet. no other way around that. its often just not that simple. if it were, we would be talking about the exisence of willpower imho.
