My Natural Cure Story
My spring allergies were so bad that sneezing less than 12 times in a row was a blessing. I could not wait to get inside where the air conditioning filtered the air. Of course, that was as long as there wasn't a cat inside when my lungs felt like I had a major case of bronchitis. If I had to wait for someone to go to the mall, I would be in the bathroom 10 times before they showed up because of my nervous stomach. Of course, then next day I would be constipated. What was happening to me was driving me crazy. One miraculous day I was talking with co-worker and she mentioned that a Naturopathic Doctor named Diane was coming into town to talk about natural cures. I showed up and that changed the course of my health. I met with Diane for a private consultation. I found out I had systemic candida. I know most women are familiar with yeast infections. Well, this was similar to a yeast infection but it was in my entire digestive system. However, I could have my body create a natural cure by providing enhanced nutrition. Up to that point, I had taken antibiotics throughout my life and that is probably one of the main reasons this happened in addition to a suppressed immune system. The antibiotics killed the bad bacteria but also killed the good bacteria that were never replenished. Diane put me on a nutritional program. (see program below) Yes, I was taking handfuls of pills a day. The first week I was on the program, I felt like there was a knife in my gut. Why was the first week so awful? I had so much overgrown bad bacteria in my system and the program was working too well. The bad bacteria was dying off all at once and making me sick. I called Diane and she suggested I slow down on some of the supplements. The program was working, just too much, too fast. I was experiencing a cleansing response. I stayed on the program and a year later without medicine my body created a natural cure. I never felt better. I could breathe through my nose again. I no longer had allergies—yeah! I no longer had fibroid cysts. PMS was no longer an issue and I had bowel movements like normal people did. My Supplement Program I was on handfuls of vitamins: B-complex, vitamin C, vitamin E, Beta Carotene, Calcium/Magnesium in addition to a multiple vitamin. Other Nutrients I took: acidopholus, garlic, myhrr and pau'd'arco.
