Another easy day of lemon juice so not much typing to
do. Although I calculated the amount of
sugar grams are in the pure maple syrup we put in each of our drinks and it is
about 146 grams! It is natural sugar,
the only natural sugar we can have, but it is sugar nonetheless. My wife got curious tonight and looked
online—she found a site that says using maple syrup for a candida cleanse is
like feeding mice cheese to catch them.
Not sure what to think but do know what we’ve been doing is
working. We do get upset that it feels
like it’s taking so long sometimes, but when you consider how long I’ve been
dealing with symptoms it’s not really that bad… is it?
Church was good, although it didn’t strike me like last week
did, but still good. I talked to
somebody at church who is one of the local leaders and found out that he runs
his own business and was excited to hear about my doing the same thing. He gave me more hope to keep going.
Today felt good most of the day and we didn’t even take a
nap. There is something else I noticed
today that tells me things are still progressing. It is easy to think that things are going
really slow until something big—like the ringing going away in my ears—happens,
but harder for other things until looking back.
Not too many weeks ago I felt tired church (which is a very normal
thing); I have felt tired at church for a number of years. I know it’s something to do with sitting, but
have never really felt it get all the way better.
I think it is almost all the way better now. I realized today that I wasn’t tired at all
through the whole time at church—even this afternoon I just got a little sleepy
but didn’t take a Sunday afternoon nap and still felt fine. It again gives me hope that there is more to
come. I also feel like my sinuses are
working their magic inside my head.
There is still the blob but it feels like it is right at the bridge of
my nose and may be ready to finally let go… at least I hope so.
We saw an advertisement for a documentary on CNN tonight
that we really want to watch called Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare—hence the name of the blog
post today. The premise is really good
and hits home now more than ever. We
have a health care system that is devoted to profits (and it seems at the
expense of our health). I wouldn’t have
considered this even a year ago but finding what I have and going through what
I have I realize it more and more every day.
Part of the documentary seems to talk about the importance
of alternative medicines as part of the overall approach. I like it because it doesn’t write off the
importance of modern medicine it just says they need to be kept for the extreme
cases and we need to focus on treating people with diet and exercise. All I can say is AMEN!!! We can’t wait to see it but will probably end
up having to buy it (since we don’t have cable) which is something we are not
extremely happy about.
Good times continue to roll, lets bring on the next day!
