Re: An Experiment
>Why do you think this candida overgrowth isn't the underlying problem, only a symptom?
Because getting rid of it made me feel worse - a lot worse. Where as if candida was *the* problem it should have made me feel better. Many people suspect that candida is merely the symptom, not the disease - that our body uses it as some kind of back-up digestion system. In a sense my experiement set out to refute one of these theories (symtom or cause). My results weren't definitive but overall I would come down in favour of candida being merely symptomatic.
>Do you think the colon terrain is still not
functioning well and that is the problem?
Yes!! But the question is why? What is causing the toxic colon in the absence of candida? Is it parasites? Is it undigested food? Or some other source of toxicity?
>It's great that you got out so much candida, but tell
me how you know it grows back quickly?
Indirect observation. Obviously I can't see it, but I can judge things like bloating, gas, intestinal pain, where I think the candida came out from.
