Hi mate,
how quick is your digestion speed. How often do you have stool. And is it constipated or soft, diarrhoea, porridge like?It could be that your digestion speed is too high because of the high fibre account in the diet. Try to cut down on the veggies with the highest fibre account.
I did that and when my digestion slowed down my stool turned from yellow to brown.You should see the difference after 2 to 3 days. If you dont see an improvement it is something else for you.
cheers
ThomasJune 2, 2012 at 5:19 am #83720Thanks for your answer Thomas!
Well at the moment its quite firm and good consistence, but thats shifting sometimes its
Loose like porrage, sometimes very hard and the range between stool is 12-24 at the moment 24 hours..
But what do I eat if not veggies? Its so hard to make up things to eat! Could i ask you for the big favour and write somethings you eat?
Would appriciate it VERY much!Thanks in advance!

Hi mate, I am not following the diet here anymore and dont want to mess upp your diet. But here is a link to a webpage where you can see the fiber content.
and this one
http://kitchen-parade-veggieventure.blogspot.se/2008/02/high-fiber-low-fiber-vegetables.html
I think you will do fine staying on the diet here and only cut down on the high fibre for 4 days and see what happens.
I had only porrage stool and diarehorr. And a speed for about 5 to 6 hours of digestion which sucked. I think you are doing quite good with 12 and more hours.
Anyhow give it a shot and see if its changing and what it will do to your sympthoms.cheers

Anyone knows what thats about? And how to “fix” it?Of course there are lots of reasons for a yellow stool, but general speaking; yellow stools can be one of the results of the conditions in the digestive tract, usually bacterial or other parasites such as fungi.
Celiac disease can also be a cause, so can an inflammation of the bile ducts or an inflamed gall bladder, and even malabsorption; and this is the main cause when Candida overgrowth is present.
When an overgrowth of Candida is present along with yellow stools, the causes are normally malabsorption due to the leaky gut syndrome or a lack of bile salts from the liver since this is what gives stools a brownish color. When there’s a decrease in bile output, the stool will appear lighter in color which could be defined as a yellowish or tan color.
Following the protocol and strict diet will eventually heal the intestines and diminish the overgrowth; meanwhile, you’ll start to see a change in your stools as the healing slowly progresses.
The information that Thomas has given you is a diet that will “guarantee” an ongoing Candida infestation. Not only that, but I can guarantee you that the overgrowth of Candida will continue to increase day by day if you follow his information. I know this because I’ve tested many ideas and diets; and I have no doubt that, instead of being completely cured, I would still be trying to cure the infestation today if I followed the advice in his information and links.
Eating more fiber than the body is normally used to, which basically is what the diet does, especially if it’s used to very limited amounts, can cause digestive problems in the beginning because the digestive system is trying to get used to this fairly “new” and beneficial food supply. And since the Candida are unable to live on this food, they’re dying as well which can also cause intestinal disturbances.

do you really think that a 3 to 4 days test will mess him up?
Especially when he stays on the diet but only cuts down on the very high fibre veggies. I believe that there is for everything a balance. If he finds out that his stool turns fine. It could be a worthwhile test. I can see that there is any problem especially with the amount of probiotic we all are taking here.Another thought is too, how many of us here really know for sure if they have candida or if it is SIBO, IBS, or any other of the sicknesses troubling us. Some people say they are over a year on the diet and still suffer like dogs with brain-fog and diarrhoea. But the advice coming is every time die-off. The low fibre test folks can do is a very quick one lasting for 3 or 4 days. After that I would say if it doesn’t work kick it. But I am concerned that people here are fighting and fighting with so called die-off and might even fight a ghost.
When is the time to move on and search further. I mean there are people who even say after 3 years the guts might be healed. Should we keep going in blind faith for years feeling worse and worse and believing die-off only?
No seriously I dont see that there is any danger in testing low fibre for 3 to 4 days.
But this is only my 2 cent.
and everyone has to do what he believes is right.all the best
guys

What do you purpose that the member eats in place of green-fiber-rich vegetables?
I believe that 3 or 4 days without fiber or a much lower fiber intake would probably help his symptoms, but at the same time it would stop the treatment because the beneficial bacteria would not have enough food. When the bacteria start dying, the treatment comes to a standstill and does no good whatsoever, and the Candida would eventually start increasing in population again.
This forum is about stopping a Candida overgrowth, period. That’s why I’m here, therefore my advice will always be geared towards finding an end to the Candida symptoms the members are experiencing and at the same time try to keep them in as healthy a state as possible. This doesn’t include telling them that eating less vegetables may help to destroy their infestation.
I can see that there is any problem especially with the amount of probiotic we all are taking here.
Beneficial bacteria are living creatures which cannot live, thrive, and multiply without food. If we apply what you have typed above to a pet dog, then what you have said is if I buy a hundred dogs rather than just one, then I won’t have to feed them as much because I have so many.
Another thought is too, how many of us here really know for sure if they have candida or if it is SIBO, IBS, or any other of the sicknesses troubling us. Some people say they are over a year on the diet and still suffer like dogs with brain-fog and diarrhoea. But the advice coming is every time die-off.

But I am concerned that people here are fighting and fighting with so called die-off and might even fight a ghost.
The problem with that line of thought is, as I’ve already explained, cutting out or decreasing the fiber intake enough will probably make the symptoms of bloating better and at the same time increase the Candida overgrowth if it’s present. So if the problem is not SIBO or IBS (which by the way are both possible long WITH a Candida overgrowth), and their symptoms improve and they continue as you suggest, then this will quickly allow the Candida population to increase.
If you’ll think back just two days ago, Javizy has already explained all of this and more to you.
Jvizy on May 31 wrote: Thomas, IBS is really just an umbrella term that comes in handy for doctors who can’t diagnose you. As you pretty much said yourself without using the term, SIBO is your problem. Low-fibre diets don’t do anything to cure SIBO. They’re just treatments that maintain the underlying conditions. If you ever want to be able to eat fibre and maintain a healthy colon, you need to learn how to cure SIBO.
Low-fibre means the bacteria in the colon can’t feed, and can’t produce SCFAs which play a number of important roles in fighting off pathogens, keeping pH low and soothing the tissue of the colon. If the number of beneficial bacteria falls low enough, and the pH rises high enough, you open yourself up for a host of new problems.
Going on a low-fibre diet has shown you what your problem is. It’s acted as a diagnostic tool. Now you need to go on to cure yourself. I don’t know much about SIBO, but are you sure you produce enough stomach acid? Pancreatic enzymes? Bile salts? What about intestinal permeability? Can you do anything to disrupt bacterial biofilms that allow the overgrowth to remain strong? Antibiotics don’t seem to work for SIBO, so I think this strongly implicates biofilms.

June 2, 2012 at 11:11 am #83758Thomas and Able thank you so much for your answers!
Thomas: I am pretty sure that It is Candida that I have, Ive done the diet before
and went a 100% healthy with great stool after just ten days… The thing is i quit it stupid as I was and
Off course the symptoms came back.Thats also bothering me, why isnt the stool getting better this time you think Able?
Last time it took only 10 days of dieting and i became sooo healthy with perfect stool!
Now Ive been on it for more than a month but still not a 100% yet…Could it be that I made an colloniccleanse last time before i started detox and later diet?

A colonic cleanse is not healthy for the intestines and colon and the infestation can be brought under control without a cleanse at all, but especially without a colonic cleanse.
I suspect that the reason it’s taking longer this time is because it’s the second time you’ve treated the infestation. It’s unfortunate, but every time you come close to a cure and then stop the treatment or even cheat heavily, then when the infestation returns it’s going to be worse than before. I did this myself the first time I tried a treatment which was of course before I got the protocol and diet as it is now. When the infestation came back, it was probably twice as bad as the first time and took much longer for me to see any significant results.

June 3, 2012 at 1:48 am #83785All right, just have to wait and see, and I will NOT cheat this time 🙂
Thanks for your answers Able, will update you on the progress!
