I know that many of us have heard that if Candida yeast overgrowth is suspected or confirmed, it is an absolute must that sugar be restricted, despite the great torture that this causes. Well, I would like to state that according to my experience – this is definitely not the right thing to do. Several times in my life I have been treated or treated myself for Candida overgrowth in the digestive tract. I got from all sides that once I started treatment that it was absolutely critical to stop all sugar and simply carb intake since I did not want to be feeding the buggies while trying to kill them. When I look back, I do not know why I thought this was logical especially since I had been feeding them the whole time anyway. Also the package inserts for the medications I used never said that one should change the diet at all during the treatment.

Many are aware of oil pulling and the reports about how it has helped many people. I want to now introduce another method which I think is even more effective. I have done it and I definitely see a difference. First make sure you have some time to yourself whether morning or evening. How much time depends on how much you need to do this. I did it for 30 min the first time. In the past couple of days, I have made fresh salsa (tomatoes, lemon juice, chopped red onion, celery sliced thinly, garlic, cilantro, jalepeno and some type of yellow hot pepper – no idea what it is in English. We ate this with my homemade pinto bean cream and veggies and lettuce and chips. My husband did not even complain that there was no taco meat If you don’t have the DVDs Raw for 30 Days and for Raw for Life, you really should get them! Alex Ortner, the guy responsible for these films, graciously allowed me access to the bonuses that you get when you buy these DVDs. Hopefully tonight, I will be able to give you a review of these bonuses. But right now, I want to share with you my raw food experiments from the last couple of days along with how I made them. Ok I am promoting the DVDs “Simply Raw: Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days” and “Raw for Life”. I bought them both a few months ago and they were very impressive and moving. As some of you may already know, I have been dabbling in raw foods on and off for years but have really started getting into lately since having released a lot of negative energies that were keeping me addicted to foods that were making me sick. It has been _forever_ since I last posted. I have been very very busy with school, work, family, projects, individual study of various energy healing methods. If I weren’t already going to naturopath school here in Germany (where I can get the training I need to pass German state exams), I would be doing my training with the School of Natural Healing. They used to do everything by mail order correspondence but have made great progress in getting most of their classes online. This has reduced the costs and time needed to process lessons immensely. If you want to consider taking one or several or all of these courses online, take a look at the School of Natural Healing website for the latest details and information. Wow, I tell ya. This Swine Flu thing is really getting on my nerves. Ignorance and greed know no bounds when it comes to blind faith in the medical machinery of the Western world. Gary Null, however, will set you straight if you weren’t before. If anyone can find valid peer-reviewed information that refutes his findings, please send it to me. I will give a large candy bar or a small container of superfood powder (of my choice since a friend of mine makes his own excellent mix) to anyone who can. In the meantime, take in and analyze what Gary has presented in the NYS Assembly Hearing on Vaccination on October 13, 2009: Busy bee that I am, I have been wanting to write my thoughts about why the H1N1 flu vaccine it is not only totally unnecessary but dangerous. There are just so many things that make no sense whatsoever with the information given out on this strain of the flu. I have notice great inconsistencies with the numbers published by the CDC and those published by the RKI in Germany. They are so much higher in the States. Why should they be higher in the States than in Germany? They should actually be higher in Germany I would think because more people smoke here and the country gets less Vitamin D from the sun. And then on Oct 21, 2009, CBS New published an article on the difficulty they had in getting straight answers out of the CDC on the actual numbers of those who had come down with H1N1. One of the results of their research was that most of the people who went to the hospital thinking they might have H1N1 actually not only didn’t have the Swine flu, they didn’t have the flu at all! Now why would the CDC not want to release this information? And also, why did they stop officially testing for H1N1 in _July_??? I smell a crock of … I’ve decided to add a new category – the ‘Crock of’ category for things. I recently stumbled onto the trailer for a movie called ‘House of Numbers’ that presents a very interesting point of view regarding HIV causing AIDS. I have not seen the movie because as far as I can tell it has not been released on DVD and can only be seen at film festivals or private showings or something. There has apparently be a bit of brouhaha about it because many people who have _not_ seen it automatically consider it a blasphemous movie stating that AIDS is not caused by HIV. Now I am not one to deny that AIDS is horrible. I used to live in San Francisco and helped take care of several friends with AIDS in the 90′s who ultimately died. This was a very sad chapter in my life. I just found out a couple days ago that the folks at LearningHerbs.com are offering their Kids & Herbs course for only $37 (normally it is &127). When you order the course, you also get their very cool herb-learning game called Wildcraft included. I have actually been wanting this game since last winter when I stumbled over the website back then – but I lost the link and forgot the name of the game – but luckily a friend found it again. Whether you are familiar with the Emotion Code or not, I highly recommend this seminar! Last weekend I and a girlfriend from church who is an MD went to Dublin, Ireland for Dr. Brad’s Emotion Code seminar. We each paid $297 (around €200) the participation fee. The fee was well worth it and the whole experience far exceeded my expectations. The only thing about the seminar that I would have changed is that he use fewer examples from the book and more new ones (he didn’t use all of those from the book, he used many not in the book but I’ve read the book and want to hear different ones Tonight’s blog on what I’ve been learning in naturopath school is about chronic gastritis. First, we need to define ‘chronic.’ Officially, it is when all the symptoms of the disease over time total at least 3 months in a single year and then again the second year. Of course, doctors don’t wait a full two years before they label something as chronic but that is the official definition (at least in Germany). There are 3 forms of chronic gastritis: A, B, and C Type A gastritis = autoimmune gastritis (5% of cases) Today I was going to write about something else but I just got a link to a Bloomberg article, “Obese Exposed as Swine Flu Collides With Fat Epidemic” which very much caught my attention. I shall take a lot of info in the article, reformulate and add a few other things I’ve learned in other places or simply just figured out in my studies. Something that a naturopathic physician will be confronted with often are stomach troubles. Some are ongoing situations, others acute. Last week we learned about acute gastritis – a rather serious thing and potentially life-threatening. I hadn’t realized how bad things could get, since I personally have not had what I would call gastritis. Basically, gastritis is inflammation of the mucous membranes of the stomach. It comes on quite suddenly and is usually caused by one or more of the following:
Is there anyone who has never wondered? Even if you won’t admit it? It all starts off in the blood stream – with old red blood cells. Once these cells reach around 120 days of age, they are broken down by enzymes in a process called haemolysis so their materials can be reused. This happens all over the body but mainly in the spleen. Besides iron, bilirubin is also released. I’ve been reading the book ‘Life Energy: Using the Meridians to Unlock the Hidden Power of Your Emotions’ by Dr. John Diamond and written in the 1980′s. I’ve read other books (and will read more In March last year, my eldest son got something flu-like (pre-Vitamin D days) and we took him to the pediatrician who prescribed kiddie ibuprofen for achyness and fever. During the night, DJ got worse with real breathing troubles. I took him back and the pediatrician now said he was having an asthma attack. What? Asthma? There is _no_ asthma in our family. Hmmm. The doc prescribed salbutamol and a nebulizer and that DJ would have to inhale every few hours everyday for the next couple weeks. So long??? Weird. Alternative healing covers a lot of area – physical, spiritual and emotional. Today I want to post about what happened just last night. My 5-yr son gets to stay up a little later until his little brother is asleep (this helps both go to sleep faster Here it is! My first post on my new blogsite for alternative natural healing and becoming a naturopath! I would like to share my experiences and knowledge that I am gaining in naturopathy school as I learn about how to help the body heal using different modalities (without having to fall back on traditional allopathic medicine). One day, I hope to be far enough to get certified and actually open up a practice one day. |

), but that is it.
Actually the answers to this question are very important regardless of whether you are into allopathic or natural medicine. And we learned about this a couple of weeks ago in class 
. Here’s a relatively simplified version of what really happens – which is the amount of info I need for my tests in a couple years.
