Hi shelley!

I have heard much from you because my wife has been following your site and I must admit that much really has changed our lives since we began to follow your guidelines.
Im gonna tell you a little about me and maybe you could help me, unfortunately, I speak Italian but I will try to translate in English, and perhaps it is not so a perfect English.
Well ... I have 2 meters in height, nice body and do sports regularly. I come from a family where my mother is very allergic to foods and have Yeast overgrow and suddenly I started to have some allergies to certain foods after adult.
Unfortunately I am not one who believes much in food allergies and I remember that I should have not eaten certain types of food when I feel sick. I do not feel very well with alcohol, some fruits, sweets, bread but I still eating bread and pizza.
I have digestive problems, flatulence, toe nail, sinusitis, vision problems like myopia and many ulcers in the mouth ... and worse it especially when I feel weak and without energy.
There's was a time (2 years ago) I drank contaminated water from a farm, I had fever and chills and doctor recommend me an antibiotic for worms. Unfortunately my wife was also contaminated and started to have many problems. The doctors had prescribed 5 kinds of antibiotics to solve the problem and our body became very weakened. after that we started to take vitamins, kefir and we changed our food and after that we saw much improvements thanks to God!!!
But there are some problems to solve and I believe very much that you could help me.
-Very weak digestive system (I already follow the phungent therapy)
-Loss of hair and hair weak (still falling)
-Candidiasis of the Nail-feet
-Flatulence and diarrhea-periodic
-Bad circulation in the legs
-So I only sleep with melatonin
-Lack of energy
-big and deep Sores in the mouth daily
-Change of mood
-Difficulty in urinating and dark urine sometimes.
- Allergies to certain types of clothing (eg. socks must be in pure cotton)
I am taking 250 g 50 cal mag zinc, cleansing drink(i love it!!!), pungent therapy, and Im feeling much better, but I still losing my hair.
What could help me?
A big hug

Gatto

Hi,
I've experienced many of your symptoms.
I've found that the cause of my issues is Celiac Disease and Candida.

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, in which the small intestine attacks itself when gluten passes through it. It causes a wide array of digestive disturbances and other health issues. I ended up with low B12 levels and pernicious anemia. Pernicious anemia occurs due to the lack of B12. Without B12, the body can not utilize iron properly.

Now that my B12 levels are normal, my body can now utilize iron properly. My nails and hair are growing faster and thicker than they ever have in my life.

Many people with Celiacs and people that are intolerant to gluten are more likely to develop allergies to other foods (especially other proteins).
Gluten is also damaging to the digestive system and the mucosal walls of the intestines.

I also have an ulcer in my colon. I assume that the Candida ate away some of my colon tissue. My colon gets extremely inflamed if I eat foods such as garlic, onion, cauliflower, cabbage, mustard. All of these foods contain "mustard oil" which turns to sulfur. These foods are high in thiols and can be very disruptive to someone struggling with colon issues and IBS.

It is great that you're trying to figure out the source of your health issues!
This is a great site and Shelley seems to be extremely educated about the digestive system.

I'm feeling much better after treating myself for Candida. I think it's been the source of my troubles for years. I'm using herbs, enzymes, bitter herbs, and probiotics. I'm also using things like Apple cider vinegar and extra soft fibers to flush out toxins.

If I were you I would look further into Celiac Disease, mercury toxicity, candida in the colon, and parasites.

Good luck to you! I hoped I helped a little and I hope I didn't write anything that would offend you in any way.

Greetings Gatto and welcome to the forum! I will try to use very simple English.

Did you have the problems with food allergies *before* the antibiotics?

Everything you are doing now is correct. Keep doing it! Add liver cleansing too, especially the Cleansing Carrot Salad. Have you seen a doctor and verified that your kidneys are working properly? Any lab test results you can show/tell me?
