Biological Treatments for Autism and PDD Online > Chapter 3: Part I | Part II | Part III Buy The newest version (2002) of this book online! Properties of tartaric acid What is tartaric acid and what is known about this product? A toxicology manual (3) indicates that tartaric acid is a highly toxic substance. As little as 12 g has caused human fatality with death occurring from 12 hours to 9 days after ingestion. Interestingly, I have found that tartaric acid is also elevated in urine samples of adults with the disorder fibromyalgia, a debilitating disease associated with muscle and joint pain, depression, foggy thinking, and chronic fatigue.

Figure 5 Surprisingly, the Food and Dr.ug Administration lists tartaric acid in the Generally Recognized As Safe or GRAS category(9) which means this product can be freely used as an additive in processed foods. Tartaric acid has not yet been found by me in Candida culture media. An analogy I would use to explain the analogs is this. Figure 6 Top. The Yeast Connection. Grapefruit seed extract. Grapefruit seed extract (GSE), also known as citrus seed extract, is a liquid extract derived from the seeds, pulp, and white membranes of grapefruit.[1] Self-made natural GSE processed in the laboratory without synthetic agents is prepared by grinding the grapefruit seed and juiceless pulp, then mixing with glycerin.[1] Commercially available GSE sold to consumers are made from the seed, pulp, glycerin (and in some cases synthetic preservatives) all blended together.[1] Grapefruit seed extract is sold as a food supplement and used in cosmetics because it is a claimed natural antimicrobial.[2] An early proponent was Dr.

History[edit] Efficacy[edit] A study that examined the antiviral properties of GSE found that GSE had no efficacy as a disinfectant for feline calicivirus and feline parvovirus.[24] Grapefruit seed extract has been advocated to be a powerful antimicrobial with proven activity against bacteria and fungi. Methodology[edit] Properties[edit] Preparations[edit] Precautions[edit] Ask the RD: Probiotic Timing and the Blood Type Diet. Probiotic Supplements by Prescript-Assist. Most probiotic supplements on the market today rely on 1 or 2 strains of fragile, lactic-acid based bacteria. Prescript-Assist is different. Basic Viability vs. Engineered Delivery Unlike other probiotics, Prescript-Assist has inherent viability. Dr. "Spore form probiotics are the Chuck Norris of probiotics: total tough guys. " While other manufacturers struggle to invent novel manufacturing techniques such as patented nano-encapsulation and hard-shelled enteric-coated capsules in an attempt to essentially "force feed" lactic-acid based organisms into survival, the environmentally based (SBO) species included in Prescript-Assist are selected from the terrestrial microbiome where they have prospered and adapted for millenia to beneficially co-exist with humans.

Syntol for Yeast Infections. I personally believe Syntol for yeast infections is far superior to Threelac, Fivelac, Probio5, Candex, YST Managment and almost all other specialty probiotic enzyme formulas for yeast and below are the reasons why. I'll take a look at these formulas briefly and their contents. You can also read the pages that are all about each product for further information. First off, lets take a look at the contents of Threelac. Threelac contains 200 Million CFU's of three different strains of bacteria that are said to eat yeast along with fiber, lemon juice powder for flavor, and refined yeast powder that is said to keep the bacteria alive. Thats it, that is all it contains.

You can get Threelac at Amazon at Cost Fivelac contains the same bacteria as Threelac but in a much higher dose, 1.5 billion; plus they added bifidobacterium longum and acidophilus for a total bacterial count that is a little over 2 billion. Fivelac at Amazon is about the same price as Threelac, more or less. In 1945 John T. Antifungals: Grapefruit Seed Extract | The Candida Diet. Candida and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Candida over-growth and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome can both present with confusingly similar symptoms, such as long-term debilitating mental and physical fatigue, headaches, food intolerances, joint and muscle pain, and brain fog. Other common symptoms which are much more specific to Candida include severe Pre-Menstrual Symptoms, depression, pain behind the breast bone, intolerance to strong odours, dandruff, athlete’s foot, visual disturbances, oral or genital thrush, an itchy anus and a feeling of bloating or flatulence.

Whilst I certainly do not believe that everyone who suffers from CFS/M.E. also suffers from a yeast over-growth, I have noticed that a significant proportion of the people I have treated for CFS/M.E. also have had food intolerances, bloating, thrush, or an itchy anus, and shown a positive result to a laboratory test for Candida. Whereas the underlying cause of M.E. still seems to escape us, the causes of Candida problems are much clearer. How does it affect the body? Next. Fermentation in the gut and CFS - DoctorMyhill.

I am most grateful to Dr Henry Butt from Australia for providing essential information! The normal state of affairs The human gut is almost unique amongst mammals - the upper gut is a near-sterile, digesting carnivorous gut (like a dog's or a cat's) to deal with meat and fat, whilst the lower gut (large bowel or colon) is full of bacteria and is a fermenting, vegetarian gut (like a horse's or cow's) to digest vegetables and fibre. From an evolutionary perspective this has been a highly successful strategy - it allows Eskimos to live on fat and protein and other people to survive on pure vegan diets. Problems arose when humans learned to cook and to farm. This allowed them to access new foods namely pulses, grains and root vegetables - these need cooking to be digestible.

The stomach, duodenum and small intestine should be free from micro-organisms (bacteria, yeast and parasites - hereon called microbes). So: Bacteroides. Streptococcus. Bacteria and yeast in the upper gut A long history of:
