Swine Flu from Mexico is making its way through the United States. There is no vaccine to take to prevent this and humans have no immunity to swine flu.   Thankfully, whatever is in the United States does not appear to be as severe as what is going on in Mexico; but, I just wanted to let you know that there are alternative methods of treatment if you feel that you have been exposed to or actually...

Did you know? 1. l reuteri is helpful in absorbing nutrition in the small intestine. 2. bifidum is used in the large intestine and helps you have bowel movements. If you are seriously constipated, you may want to try a probiotic that JUST contains bifidum bacteria. 3. If you have recently had an antibiotic, it would be a great idea to do a beneficial bacteria “slam” to repopulate your digestive...

Itchiness won out as last week topic of discussion on our support calls.  It seemed as if almost everyone was struggling with this particular issue.  Itchiness often accompanies candida infections for a couple of reasons. 1) you may have a fungal infection on the surface of your skin (rare) or 2) you are dealing with internal toxicity created by the candida or cleansing (more common).  I am going...

Have I ever mentioned that stress is one of the big factors that causes flare-ups in candida symptoms?  Well, if I haven’t, I sure have now.  We are all under tremendous stress trying to figure out what exactly is going on with the economy, our jobs, and deal with our personal lives, too.  Do you realize that we go through the amount of stress in a week or so (in good economic times) that...

This week I have sick kids.  The virus that has been making its away around the country has finally come to little, ol’ Meridian, ID and my kids are dropping like flies.  I have a friend who’s 7 year old daughter has this same virus – she caught it within days of my own 8 year old, Maddie.  It starts out with a sore throat, then moves to a fever, fatigue, coughing and then heads...

Ahhhh… Spring Break!  Warm weather, no school, a time of renewal and hope as new life springs up all around.  Well, we may not be there quite yet.  The weather has been cold in Idaho (I admit to being a wimp); it is 36 degrees as of 11 AM on Friday morning.  I know that other folks have it a lot colder; but, I am an Idaho gal and we are usually in the mid forties to fifties by now.  Oh well…...

The short story? Yes, it does!  ThreeLac is a very powerful candida-fighting probiotic.  We have been working with it for about 5 years now and have been continually amazed at how well and quickly it can work to combat candida.  You may wonder why there is negative material on the internet if ThreeLac is as good as people claim it is?  There are fundamentally three main objections to ThreeLac:  The...

I got the results back from my latest saliva test and was thrilled with the results!!!  Over the last year, I have been eating pretty low carb to help control the insulin resistance that seems to be an earmark for PCOS.  I was also taking bio-identical progesterone, to try and achieve some balance with the extra estrogen in my system and was also taking indole-3-carbinol to help remove the extra...
