			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 7-step Candida Solution  (<em>These notes are raw from the presentation. I will edit and expand as time allows</em>).</p>
<p>75-90%  of all people have candida.</p>
<p>Candida overgrowth is the state of having more harmful bacteria and yeast than beneficial bacteria.   It is the most common yeast so everyone has them. It is a natural part of the digestive system.  Under normal circumstances it lives in harmony with us.  It is considered to be a parasite&gt;  <strong>Eats nutrients in the digestive system and produces over 70 known toxins as a by-product. </strong>The pH of a healthy gut is not optimal for candida to thrive as they must compete for nutrients with good bacteria that far outnumber them. Ratio {ideal} is 1 yeast cell to 1 million probiotic cells.</p>
<p>Candida is an opportunistic organism.  So we need to supplement with probiotics.  Meat and dairy needs to be antibiotic free.  Candida overgrowth damages the digestive tract and causes auto-intoxication, the process where the body pollutes itself. Overgrowth creates acid which puncture the mucus lining of the digestive tract - Leaky gut syndrome.</p>
<p>How does Candida make us sick??  Releases powerful poisons, produces an alcohol called ethanol. Nutrasweet grows yeast better than sugar which contributes to Candida. Xyletol doesn&#8217;t encourage yeast growth at all.  All the stuff that gets into the blood system causes illness, allergies and more. Can create a false estrogen, upping xeno-estrogen which can contribute to cancer. Produces Acetaldehyde the chemical known to make us feel &#8220;hung-over&#8221; when the body detoxifies.</p>
<p>Need to work on balacing pH.  Turning off the TV can help your pH by getting less negative input.  Think on good things to balance pH!!</p>
<p>What weakens the immune system?  (list)</p>
<p>Causes of Candida or Mold and Fungus Overgrowth</p>
<ul>
<li>antibiotics</li>
<li>high acid foods/drinks  (Coffee &amp; sodas)</li>
<li>mildew and mold in living area</li>
<li>contact with mold in public showers</li>
<li>excessive cheese consumption (Pizza is Candida&#8217;s dream)</li>
<li>pH imbalance</li>
</ul>
<p>Symptoms:</p>
<ul>
<li>gas and bloating - brain fog - poor memory</li>
<li>fatigue</li>
<li>inability to lose weight</li>
<li>sick all over  (about 20 more)</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Eat a Candida Control Diet:</li>
<li>Balance pH</li>
<li>Probiotics</li>
<li>Supplements</li>
<li>Support the immune system</li>
<li>Clear out the yeast as it dies off</li>
<li>Repair the &#8220;Leaky Gut&#8221;</li>
</ol>
<p>Step 2: Balance the pH</p>
<ul>
<li>balance proteins &amp; carbs</li>
<li>use digestive enzymes</li>
<li>use alkaline water (coral calcium, chlorophyll)</li>
<li>beware of stress</li>
<li>breath deeply</li>
</ul>
<p>Step 3: Use Probiotics</p>
<ul>
<li>Use probiotics (especially after anitbiotics)</li>
</ul>
<p>Step 4: &#8220;Kill&#8221; the Yeast</p>
<p>It is important to take natural supplements that can systemically kill the yeast.</p>
<p>Candida Clear is the Big Gun - Other products:</p>
<ul>
<li>Candida Control Cleanse</li>
<li>Yeast/Fungal Detox</li>
<li>Caprylic Acid Combo</li>
<li>Pau D&#8217;Arco  stops moss, mold, and fungus. Good for liver. Often used in anti-cancer protocol.</li>
</ul>
<p>5:   Support the Immune System</p>
<ul>
<li>Tea tree oil (melaleuca)</li>
<li>Wild Oregano (Use with caution.)</li>
<li>Silver Shield</li>
<li>Una De Gato</li>
</ul>
<p>(Hint) Candida can interfere with the Thyroid.</p>
<p>6: Clearing out the Dying Yeast</p>
<ul>
<li>Enzymes</li>
<li>Kidney and Lymphatic Drainage (puffy under eye - kidney above eye - liver)Elim</li>
</ul>
<p>Step 7: Repair the Leaky Gut</p>
<ul>
<li>Everybody&#8217;s Fiber</li>
<li>l-glutamine</li>
<li>eliminate foods that cause allergies</li>
</ul>
<p>Candida Clear!</p>

<p>We are responsible for our bad physical condition and are responsible for getting back to health. Eat until you are only 80% full.  A secret of people who live longer. Don&#8217;t stuff yourself.  Overeating causes inflammation of the body.  Second secret of long living people is drinking a daily dose of an antioxidant drink (Thai-go)</p>
<p>When you start on an herbal program you will feel worse for a while because the toxins have to work themselves out of the body.  When you have reached a better physical state you still have to invest in &#8220;health&#8221; insurance ie supplements and good food.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You might not know it but there is a battle over your health. As you go along your daily routine there are major factions fighting over who gets your share of the health care dollar.</p>
<p>We have to understand that this is going on and what it means for us in or consumers of the Alternative or Natural Health Care field.  We have been declared the enemy by many.  Why? Because we are dangerous? Because we peddle snake oil?  No - because we offer many cheaper and effective solutions to common health concerns, and that takes away money from the disease care coalition of Modern Medicine and Big Pharma.</p>
<p>Mixed in with this too is the major food manufacturers who want you to buy their products whether they are good for you or not.</p>
<p>We teach our kids to get along together, we work together in the work place but mix in millions if not billions of dollars and things get nasty.</p>
<p>Be informed, be proactive - it ultimately comes down to your health and your body.</p>
