I’ve just found the ultimate treatment for oral candida thrush & white tongue :)

I tried everything, I mean EVERYTHING 🙂

• The doctor’s prescriptions and lots of them…
• Home-remedies that I’ve found on the net by reading hundreds of websites, forums, blogs, hospital/clinic, websites etc.
• I used ACV, propolis, brushing it etc and also prescribed drugs against oral candida for years.

They did not completely go away no matter what…

I have found something that is written nowhere and no doctor told me about it. I got rid of tongue thrush in 3 fucking days!

I put pure tea tree oil on a towel and rubbed it 5 times a day to my tongue and inside my mouth until there is no whiteness. That’s it!

On the first day, I could not be sure, maybe they come back etc. so I did not write this post, but on second day it got better, and now it is so pretty pink and there is no pain or a metallic taste 🙂

I am so happy I have a pink tongue like this 🙂

I am so happy, happy, happy, happy 🙂

Try it if you have tongue thrush.

How to test & diagnose if you have oral candida / tongue thrush:

CHECK IT OUT: Check your tongue out. Does it look like this? If so, it could be thrush. It could also be other things. To be sure, do the spit test in the following.

Image Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_candidiasis

SPIT TEST: As you get up, before doing anything including brushing your teeth or drinking water etc. spit in a cup of water in a glass an watch what happens:

• if your spit stays on top like a foam, then you have nothing to worry about,
• If it slowly goes down like jellyfish tails then you have excess oral candida, probably on your tongue.
• 15 minutes later, check again. If the tails became a white floor on the bottom, then you have to do something about your thrush immediately.

Easy diagnosis, easy treatment!

Stay healthy 🙂

health project update and new goal added: Lazy recipes goes for becoming a project!

I recently wrote that my health is getting better and I am so happy and proud of myself for sticking to my healthy diet. I eat a lot of meat (all kinds), bone broth and black cumin oil which are high in calories and still lose weight as I cut the carbs. Of course I eat chocolate and little treats like ginger desert, pumpkin desert and tiny cupcakes made w/ gluten-free flour.

All of my meals are home-made (by me) and my original recipes. In other words, I made them up 🙂 I call them lazy recipes as I cannot spend time on cooking and want the ingredients become food as effortless as possible.

So, I came up with a new goal: Why don’t I create a lazy healthy recipe set to share with you? I’ve already created a category about it. I tried two other meals in the past two days and will share them too.

At the end of the year, I want to came up with the top 5’s in the areas of:

1. Breakfast ideas

2. Red meat (Lamb/Beef) + veggies + sauces

3. Poultry meat + veggies + sauces

4. Bone broth soups

5. Green salad & veggie sauces

6. Snacks + snack sauces

7. Desserts + desert sauces

8. Smoothies w/ kefir or yoghurt

I love making the combination to ease the cook’s mind. I will try them through time and select the top 5.

As I have a leaky gut and IBS, candida problem and gluten allergy I think my choices will apply to many people with or without these problems.

Therefore, get ready!

UPDATE on HEALTH PROJECT!

As I was informed today,

My candida albicans in my digestive system are

50% lower when compared to 15 days ago!

My diet works on Candida! 

Of course it is still higher than it should be, but progress is progress 🙂

I am ridiculously happy and proud of myself for sticking to my healthy diet!

I also have a home diagnosis and remedy recommendations for tongue thrush.

Will be posting it today

🙂

Happy healing Alex 🙂

Update update, I have a deadline :)

Good news folks!

I feel better with my bone broth soup which I daily prepare from zero to eat it fresh.

For the last three days I am having:

1. Bone broth veggie soup (see lazy recipes section under Health Category) 2 big bows 🙂
2. Propolis (1 spoonfull)
3. Probiotic yoghurt mixed with normal yoghurt (200 ml)
4. Kefir (200 ml)
5. Riched Probiotic Supplement including (I mix it with yoghurt for breakfast)
   • Lactobacillus acidophilus
   • Lactobacillus rhamnosus
   • Bifidobacterium bifidum
   • Bifidobacterium longum
6. No gluten, no wheat or wheat products, no milk, no cheese, no coffee/tea, no coke, no sugar, no starchy food, none of them! It is very hard not to drink my morning coffee and eat my bitter chocolate but i guess i will get used to that.

And I feel better. Of course there is gas and stuff weird going on in my stomach like it talks to me mumbling and growling all the time but I guess I got used to it.

Plus I will buy fresh Nigella Seeds (Black Cumin) and L-Glutamine supplement today and take them to boost my immune system.

I use medication that doctor gave me for Candida. That will go on for a week.

So in 10 days I want to get better. First goal 🙂 Get rid of this thing, get healthy and keep it that way for a year 🙂

On 5th of January I have my PhD Thesis defence meeting and I want to be super energetic that day. Although, mmm, I haven’t done much about the thesis lately. I guess I should work on that in the following days.

So 10 days folks 🙂 Wish me luck to fight with my fucking Leaky Gut Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Systemic Candida in my bowels and I hope I will give you good news.

Thank you for supporting me 🙂

How to make bone broth at home in 3 easy steps + Lazy Soup Recipe

STEP 1. Pick a meat type and buy fresh bones 

Lamb has the best taste, cow has more bone marrow. I do not prefer poultry or pork, but these will do too.

It is better be organic and this is very important “free range” animals especially for poultry in both ethical and health terms.

Pros: Very easy to find, cheap

Cons: It is the bones of an animal. It doesn’t look like cutted meat. It is the bone and you have to see it.

STEP 2. Boil them in very low heat for 8-12 hrs

Put lots of water in the pot and put 2-5 tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar in it to get the best result. Put the bones and open up the heater. Boil it first with moderate heat and take the brownish foam out. We do not eat that. Then put the heater to the minimum, cover the pot and wait for 8-12 hrs. Check 2-3 times about the water level. Usually you do not have to add water in it. If you have to, add previously heated/boiled water.

Yes, it takes so long. Do not forget: The heat should be at the minimum. This is not a meal so cooking it with high heat in short time will not get you what you want. So simply, wait 🙂

STEP 3. Use it immediately or cool it down and put it in the fridge 

Using it immediately is nice but you will eat all the fat in it too. However, if you cool it and wait it in the freezer like 4-5 hrs, the fat will freeze on the top.

It will look like this:

See the bones and the white fat on them. Tap on the fat with a spoon and it will crack. Take the fat out and you will see the bone broth jelly inside.

It should look like this:

I usually do not use the fat. No need to gain more weight. The jelly is fatless and full of aminoacids. 

When you take the fat out, heat the pot again and take the bones out. You can also take the bone marrows and put them into the jelly or you can eat them directly. Very very healthy and necessary if you have Leaky Gut Syndrome like me.

Now you have your Bone Broth and you can put precooked or steamed peas, chickpeas, beans, veggies, meat, onions, garlic in it to make a nice soup or you can drink it directly when it is warm.

Do not add additional water. That will lower the taste.

Tip: I steam the veggies and other stuff before putting into the broth because broth is already cooked. No need to overcook it and kill the health in it.

My lazy soup recipe with bone broth

1. Frozen presteamed veggies (broccoli, lettuce, baby carrots etc),

2. Precooked frozen meat products or meatballs (no salami, no sausages, no smoked meat)

3. Other ingredients like precooked beans, chickpeas or peas (No wheat or wheat products, no corn and no starch should be added if you have Leaky Gut Syndrome.)

4. Onions (very small cut, you can use frozen too)

5. Garlic (large cut and freshly cut)

6. For extra taste: turmeric, rosemary etc. (No hot pepper or no extra sauce if you have Leaky Gut Syndrome) Turmeric is extra good for Leaky Gut.

7. Bone broth from 1kg of bones (home cooked, fat removed)

This is how my soup looks like:

Home made soup with bone broth

Add them all to your bone broth, cook for 10 minutes with low heat to mix the tastes together and your soup is ready to go.

No extra salt needed as it is too tasty and fresh, Good for health. Buon apetite 🙂
