I totally relate to the sugar aspect of
this. As a binge drinker with a 3 day binge drinking/smoking cycle
going on the intense cravings I felt day 3 onwards were really cravings
for more sugar.

holistic alcohol article: Dr. G.
Quote:
So, I'm quite happy that the writing I did on alcoholism has been received positively and given some people a new view, new understanding, and....some new ways out. I wrote articles in The Light Connection newspaper for 6 months on alcoholism. I've written a monthly column for 12 years, and it is not so easy finding new topics. When I decided to write about alcoholism, I thought it would be a 2-part series, with part 1 being an explanation of the biology, especially brain chemistry. Part 2 was going to be about treatment. But, this is a very complicated subject, leading to 6 months of articiles. I had one more article to write about alcoholism, but 6 months was the longest I spent on any one topic. At the request of someone working at The Light Connection, I turned the articles into a book, which is called: THE LITTLE BOOK: Strategies for Healing Alcoholism. Alcoholism can be Cured, but in the general media and 12-step programs, the words Alcoholism and Cure don't appear in the same sentence. To the fellow who posted about his coated tongue...you have systemic candida, although I use a blood test to find out for sure. The test, which I run through Genova labs is for AntiCandida Antibodies. I turned THE LITTLE BOOK into a downloadable e-book which was available on my main web site. It's no longer available online although I am setting things up with Amazondotcom to print the book as well as other projects I have. You can look at the 6 articles in The Light Connection archives online. I see that this system won't let me provide you the URL for that. If you Google: The Light Connection, the 3rd URL listed takes you to TLC online. Then...look for Archives in the upper right...and click on David Gersten. The first article was May 2005 and the last in October 2005. Here is to furthering the knowledge, hope, and healing, David Gersten MD

Candida from antibiotics and alcohol
Quote:
I just went to the suplements store and got some treatments for it. I'm a little bit uncertain about the required anti-Candida diet, not sure if I can cut out sugar, cheese, bread, fruit and all that. Is it true that whenever I eat sugar it will just keep the Candida going strong? I also wanted to comment on your saying that Alcoholism and Cure don't appear in the same sentence in 12 step programs or the general media. Could that have anything to do with the statement I've heard that if anything is called "a cure" that doesn't involve surgery or patented prescription drugs it becomes "illegal" to the FDA, AMA and FTC? Is it true that the AMA was started to fight the Chiropractic and Wholistic health practiioners? I hope I'm not starting any conflicts by mentioning these things. Right now I'm kind of miffed about being prescribed all those antibiotics if they've led to some Candida problem that's going to be a real chore to get over. Maybe it's just something I'll have to accept in order to get through. Acceptance doesn't have to mean approval. Thanks for your post.

All of us are prime candida candidates
with all the sugars we ingest ... it's a nasty thing, isn't it? You
should be miffed, our healthcare in the west is antibiotic happy, that's
why we have those killer bugs now, right? Alcohol is like jet fueled
sugar, so candida especially loves us drinkers, and I bet has something
to do with us continuing to drink.
So here's what I can contribute: You probably do have candida and maybe some other stuff, like most drinkers, although you may have recovered by now, your ability to absorb nutrients for example. Candida can be addressed by RX of diflucan, and no, one pill will not do it. One pill may work on vaginal yeast, but not whole body involved candida. My doc gave me 6 to be taken over time (forget the protocal she gave), and you'll want to ingest some big amounts of probiotics for a while, and eat it in food as well. lots of nice greek yogurt in your smoothie should help. Good luck! Last edited by Bruunhilde : 08-02-2010 at 09:37 PM. Reason: forgot something

Thank you, Dr G. For being a member of
the Giraffe Club and sticking your neck out. There is definitely an
alcohol/sugar/candida connection. As I address these issues one by one,
I have found a decrease in sugar and alcohol cravings, a decrease in
candida (usu. shows up as a rash on my hands) and an increase in
functioning. I'm not completely over the hurdle yet, but am down to 2
drinks a day with no desire to go beyond that.
The probiotics are a definite MUST! I increased mine and my gut is thanking me. Of course, I cannot share too much of this knowledge, as the mainstream would think I was nuts, but this is a very nice, safe place..........
