First off, in case you missed it, you can purchase the MP3 Audio recording or pdf written transcript of the Candida, Detox & More! teleseminar with Dr. Dean MD, ND here:

******************************************************

This is an absolute must-have resource for anyone with IBS or IBD. Dr. Carolyn Dean MD, ND specializes in Candida albicans overgrowth (yeast) treatment. She has written a whole book on it, actually!

And in this teleseminar she shares with us her super-effective treatment protocol, along with tips and special insider info for those really stubborn, or hard-to-define cases of yeast infection.

She outlines her special yeast-scrubber-sponge formula of bentonite clay, psyllium seed (or aloe vera if you prefer) and caprylic acid. This protocol is so effective because it absorbs and removes the 178 toxins given off by yeast, as well as the yeast itself. This prevents that awful die-off effect – that can make you sicker than the original infection!

This is then followed by high dose probiotic supplementation.

Dr. Dean introduces us to a new gentle, but effective detox agent, called phosphatidylcholine. This can be used to detox from Candida albicans, heavy metals, pesticides, etc. It is so gentle that it is a staple detox agent for autistic children. It is simultaneously healing for the gut and resolves constipation or spastic colon. Here’s the site where you can purchase it and also download an excellent informational pdf.

We also discuss the oft-ignored problem of hormone imbalance in people with colitis, Crohn’s, diverticulitis and IBS and what you can do about it – who you can go to for specialized treatment and testing.

Another great tip included is a brand new natural cortisol product that people can use to wean off that last 5 or 10 mg of Prednisone. If every time you try to get completely off Prednisone, your bleeding starts up again, then this is certainly something you’ll want to try. Dr. Dean even gives you the email for the doctor/company that has developed this product.

Like I said, these are MUST-TRY protocols! And Dr. Dean generously gives us all the dosage instructions and other info needed to implement them on this teleseminar.

Now, whether you purchase the teleseminar or not, here are some additional goodies Dr. Dean sent us after the call:

Here is the study she referenced by Dr. Santelmann in Norway (it includes Dr. Santelmann’s yeast/fungal diagnostic questionnaire, diet guidelines and challenge test). Click here to to download the pdf.

She also sent us a little more information on the Isocort we talked about on the call – can be used to help wean off Prednisone:

Dr. Shefrin, who developed Isocort, can be reached at:

ISOCORT

One pellet is equivalent to 2.45 mg of cortisol or hydrocortisone.

So he uses a 2:2:1 dosage:  2 pellets with breakfast, 2 pellets with lunch, and 1 pellet with supper.

Dr. William Jeffries used cortisone acetate which is 30% stronger, he used 5 TID. And his followers use these high doses.

But Isocort works wonderfully in this dosage of 2:2:1. More than adequate to accomplish the task of supporting weak adrenals.

Dr. Shefrin observed: You have to divide the dose up, can’t take it all at once. And there is a detrimentel effect if you use it at a dosage of 3:3:3. Because you are going to suppress the adrenal glands and that’s not what it is about. The adrenals are higher in the morning and diminish through the day and we are trying to support the adrenal gland in its normal physiological function.

I had a few more questions of my own for Dr. Dean, so here they are along with her answers:

Q: Can you take the bentonite/psyllium/caprylic acid mixture if you are experiencing intestinal bleeding?

A: I don’t think the psyllium would be good in bleeding…and probably not the caprylic acid. Wait until you’ve had no bleeding for several weeks before you begin.

Q: Likewise, can you take the phosphatidylcholine if you are having intestinal bleeding?

A: Yes, there seems to be no problem there.

Q: Lastly, would you still have good results if you left out the psyllium from the bentonite/psyllium/caprylic acid mixture (many don’t tolerate it) and just used bentonite and caprylic acid?

A: Ah, I add aloe when I take out the psyllium. Didn’t get to that part!!

******************************************************

So there you have it, I would think the yeast-sweep mixture of bentonite/George’s Aloe Vera/caprylic acid would be very effective, yet soothing.

Please leave a comment below if you try any of these protocols and let me know your results!
