no symptom candida?

[Alicyn]

I have a friend that goes to the same chiropractor that I used to go to, He was diagnosed soley by applied kinesiology with a fungus and put on the candida diet with some coptis chinesis. My friend has no symptoms, he feels fine. He does occasionally have blood sugar crashes but its not a constant problem.

I actually stopped seeing this chiro because I found his billing practices unethical. He really sucks every dollar out of the insurance in a way I have never seen.

When I saw him I knew I had a candida issue, but I basically was given the same diagnosis and herb as treatment. I found that odd, as I would think each person would get a little different treatment. I found he also gave some information that I just knew wasn't right. Like he told Dan it was OK to eat sourdough bread because it has no yeast, yet it's white flour. that makes no sense to me.

My question I guess is, can you have candida at the fungal stage and have no symptoms?

In the meantime I found another practioner that I'll be working with. She has just over a 2 month waitnig period so I'll see her in June.

If you doubt the practitioner's integrity, and I think you're right to, then his method of applied kinesiology may be skewed. We get what we focus on, and if he's focused on keeping patients coming to him regulary for more money, things will test positive that shouldn't. You have to have very clear focus and pure intent to use kinesiology correctly. It's easy to corrupt the results, unfortunately.

Blood sugar crashes are a bad sign, but not necessarily of systemic candidiasis. He definitely needs to eat more complex carbs and less simple sugars, and should consider taking Emergen-C 3x a week or more to build up chromium and electrolytes. Take a good look at his tongue - that should tell the story correctly.

thanks so much for the replies

I'm going to pass the message on to him. Will try to get him to join the board and ask his own questions. I agree the diet won't hurt him, and I'm sure the Coptis Chenisis won't hurt him either. But I think he just needs to tighten up his diet and be more careful about it.

It's great having you guys as resources, it's an amazing service that you provide
