I'm fairly sure I've had candida since I was about 2, when I was on loads of antibiotics for recurrent pneumonia, followed by steroids for asthma (both of which kill off the good bateria). Then in my teens onwards I had a sweet tooth, a weight problem, underactive thyroid, PCOs, skin so itchy I wanted to scrub it with steel wool..and of course thrush symptoms. Then when I was about 22 the symptoms got much worse, to the point I thought I had MS, I was getting vision probs, numbness in right leg (which I still get if I have sugar/alcohol), memory loss, cognitive problems, and most importantly excrutiating pains in my gut, bloating and constant digestive probs.. Anyway, I eventually figured out it was candida, now proven, and I think I probably also had leaky gut.. Having done the anti candida diet (fun!) for 2 yrs, trying to combine it with Atkins (even more fun!), I eventually found out about Threelac. I took 2 packs a couple of years ago (about 5 sachets a day), and altho I did feel quite a bit better, especially after first month, there were no major improvements, I still was ill if I had sugar/alcohol. Then last month I got 6 packs and decided I needed to be a bit more drastic - I took between 20-30 sachets a day and I immediately FELT AMAZING!!! Not since I was a child have I felt so good in my skin!! My digestive probs disappeared, I was actually properly digesting food and so my hunger cravings went away, my metabolism kicked in and I WAS LOSING WEIGHT!! I wasnt even trying, I was eating the same as before but it was leaving me fuller!! Another absolutely brilliant thing is that it cleared up another major problem I've been having with blood sugar levels, namely hypoglycemia. I used to wake in the morning with my heart racing, even tho I was eating 'normally', I would get it later on in the day as well, just from the smallest surprise, it was like I was having a heart attack. And now its gone!! I know I went way over the recommended daily dosage, but I felt absolutely brilliant as a result. The only trouble is, altho I am now in much better health than before, I still have candida, and the 'extra' amazing feeling from when I was actually taking it has gone. And I think this is to do with how well developed the candida is in me. So I definitely need to be taking it for a longer time period. But still, I am so much healthier than before. The knowledge and relief from knowing there is something out there that can not only help but actually contribute to feeling great, is indesribably wonderful. I only wish that more people that have candida were aware of it, and of what they can do.
