Updated information on Candidais Albican and how it is treated

This book allows you to get updated information on the issue of Candidasis Albican and how the medical profession is NOW recognizing it as a major health concern. I highly recommend it to others who have an interest in this area.

Saved my life...

This book and it's companion cookbook literally saved my life, after years of getting no help ~ or getting sicker ~ from the established "medical profession." I changed my diet and in three days the pain disappeared, and a week later I tossed away my cane and bounded up the stairs. I couldn't believe it, it was a miracle. I still can't believe it; all because of changing the foods I ate.

Now, years later, when I go off the no-sugar, no yeast diet, the pain and stiffness and depression returns and I have to stop and think... ahhh, I've been eating sugar = candida yeast infection! So back I go and all is well. This change in eating habits has saved untold thousands of people like me from suffering and pain and "given us our lives back." Why don't doctors tell us? I will never understand this.

How did I hear about this book & the problem of candida yeast infection? Three friends, from different parts of the country, told me about it, and I visited a nutritionist who backed up everything Dr. Crook says in the book. Et Voila! I was cured.

It is very hard at times not to feel great bitterness towards the "regular doctors" who wasted my time and money, and left me suffering for so many years, yet who have little or no training in basic nutrition.

It is not this way in Europe; here they seem to know only how to prescribe surgery or useless medications, some of which made me sicker, but I have to continue to remind myself that this is the training of the AMA. I hope things change, and soon.

In the meantime, a note of importance:

I developed the initial candida yeast infection was drinking "100% pure fruit juice." I drank it all day or night long, for three years, sitting in front of my computer working. I was a computer programmer at the time. Turns out any bottled fruit juice turns into fructose sugar during processing, and I was making myself sick by believing that the "100% pure juice" was healthy for me. How wrong that was. That's how I got sick.

After going on the anti-candida yeast diet for a few months (during which I lost 40 lbs as well! The fat just melted off me), all was well. Then I started drinking cartons of orange juice purchased from the grocery store. Joint pain, exhaustion and suffering again! I was told by a woman shopping alongside of me that processed orange juice was causing my returning joint pain, and she was right. She knew because she had been through the same thing. She was an angel from above! Now I only drink juice that is fresh squeezed, and stick to the rest of the diet, and I have no more problems whatsoever. (I have problems only when I go off).

I have recommended this book to many, many people and all have received a great deal of relief. If only I had been told about it sooner, it would have saved me three years of exhaustion, pain, suffering & immobility. It even hurt to breath some days, and doctors did not help at all. I tried everything.

The diet is simple: no sugar, no dairy, no yeast, no wheat, only organic foods and water to drink. It's not "easy" at first, but mayonnaise, eggs and chicken are allowed, spices, curries, rice syrup (really sweet), fresh corn tacos or chips take the place of many kinds of foods. Health food stores have lots of "gluten and dairy free foods, so you will shop there to your heart's content. Plus I had immediate results within three to seven days.

This diet was like putting "Miracle Grow" on roses with yellowed & blackened leaves half dead from lack of proper nutrients, and seeing green and healthy results, literally overnight! I still can hardly believe it. After four months, people said it was as if I was twenty years younger, and they were right!

Thank you, Dr. Crook! You have saved my life.

I recommend this book and it's change in diet with acupressure massage, and a bit of prayer and meditation. With Grace on our side, all will be well.

This book has been my saving grace

After suffering for many months, years, from various yeast related issues I purchased this book. My mother had used this diet on me as a child for re-occurring yeast infections and it helped. I am sad to say I had this book for a good 6 months before I did anything because I was afraid to give up so much. Unfortunetly for me, things got much worse before better and it was actually my MEDICAL doctor that diagnosed me with candida. Just weeks prior I had taken my 18th antibiotic in 1 1/2 years. Shortly after I finished it I got a severe sore throat and mouth pain. It literally felt as if I was swallowing glass and then my mouth felt as if it were closing. One look in my mouth and throat and I was diagnosed with SEVERE thrush of the mouth and throat. I am now on antifungal treatment and 1 week into my first 2 weeks on this diet. I am still very sick but much better than before AND I have lost 6 pounds. Thank you for writing this book and thank God for doctors who actually acknowledge that this is a REAL issue!

very helpful book

This book was recommended by my doctor and I've read it through in a couple of weeks. It was full of good, useful and very accurate information. There's a test to take to see how likely yeast is in causing problems. My score was very high, so I'm following the diet and taking the yeast pills my doctor gave me and feeling better already.

FINALLY!! Answers...

I'd never heard of 'Candida Overgrowth' until a friend let me read her copy of this book. I can't believe I found the answers to all the wierd physical and mental issues I've been dealing with (you know the ones - doc says it's all in your head...). I had breast cancer in 1999-2000 and was on weeks of STRONG IV antibiotics - every time they touched me I got an infection - the port site, surgery sites, even a PICC line. This after a childhood of amoxicillin before every dental visit due to a heart murmur. Not real hard to see where my yeast overgrowth came from. What angers me is that it was doctor-caused, then they had no idea why I couldn't focus, had mental fogginess, depression, weight gain for no reason that I couldn't lose again, and a slew of other annoying digestive issues. The inability to focus and mental fog cost me a really good-paying job. All I did to cause this was eat the "All-American" diet most people I know eat and follow my doctors instructions. Well, not gonna happen anymore. I'm buying my own copy of this book and my whole family is ready to try it. My husband has asthma and allergies, my daughter can't focus and was called unorganized and irresponsible at school - they're ready for a change too. The advantage I have over alot of people reading these reviews is that I know this works from trying it. Maybe not for everyone, we're all different, but at least give it a shot. It's hard to change how you eat - but then, isn't everything hard when it's new? It's worth it.
