Remedies to help kill Candida
Some remedies that claim to help kill Candida have fermentation products and sugar in them. Why do people note a reduction in their Candida symptoms when they take them?
Answer: There is a process that I noticed in people who did that same exact thing. By feeding the Candida in their body the fuel that Candida needs to thrive and multiply, Candida will reward that person by secreting a chemical that makes them feel good. This only lasts until the person, stops feeding the Candida that particular substance and then the Candida will punish them by dumping out lots of acetylaldahyde which brings back the symptoms with a vengeance. So the person takes the substances again and the Candida backs off on the acetylaldahyde and secretes the chemical that makes them feel good. I call this making a pact with the Candida. Sounds bizarre, but it is true.
People and practitioners and supplement companies that advocate using certain remedies or concoctions that feed Candida will get results and a reduction of Candida symptoms. But when they stop taking these substances the Candida symptoms come back with fervor. Then the person takes the substances again and the Candida symptoms subside. This is quite a phenomenon. People feed Candida what it likes and Candida makes them feel good. You can see this over and over again. For instance, apple cider vinegar and honey is a remedy used over the ages to help arthritis.
This is a great example of making a pact with the Candida. Apple cider vinegar is like “rocket fuel” to Candida. When you feed Candida apple cider vinegar, the Candida becomes supercharged and the honey feeds it also. So you have a major treat for Candida and the Candida rewards that person by secreting a chemical that attaches to the Mu opiate receptors in the brain resulting in that person feeling good all over. So the person uses that substance repeatedly to feel good and reduce their arthritis pain that was probably caused originally by Candida toxins in their joints and muscles.
Another example is chocolate. A person has a craving for chocolate so they consume a large quantity and feel a kind of euphoria afterwards. The next day they feel terrible and may have a bad headache or feel like they had the flu or even a hangover although they didn’t have any alcohol. What happened is that the craving was likely induced by chemicals secreted by the Candida and the euphoria was from the chemicals secreted after that made them feel good.
This is like having a little shot of morphine. The Candida meanwhile feeds on the sugar and gives off acetylaldahyde as a waste product and the person feels lousy the next day from the acetylaldahyde toxicity. There are other substances that feed Candida with similar outcomes but the magnitude of reward and punishment is equal to the grade of fuel you feed Candida. Foods that have the highest-grade levels of fuel for Candida will make this pact with Candida harder to break – sort of like making a pact with the Devil.
