Success Story by Melissa, March 2007

I was a vegetarian and refused to eat any meat. A week after starting to eat beef my mouth started healing. It feels like magic happened! Also, periods leveling out, and breasts no longer tender.

Hello group,

White fuzzy stuff coated my tongue -- thrush -- for the longest time. About three months prior, I finally got the yeast to a bearable level, yet my mouth was not progressing. I tried everything -- garlic, hydrogen peroxide washes, etc.

It had been 15 years since I had eaten beef. I was a vegetarian and refused to eat any meat. About a month back I finally braved it -- tears and struggles through the entire meal because of the conditioning I had put my mind through about meat -- and ate a nice, juicy steak. About a week later my mouth started healing.

What exactly happened? It feels like magic happened. I never thought it would!! What I don't exactly understand is why the industry tells us that meat is bad and it totally cleared up my mouth. (I am not finished with overcoming candida, but at least it's fading away.)

Not to mention that my period this month leveled out a little better than last month. Plus, I read the post on the sodium chloride in butter and I never realized how much havoc it caused my body. Since switching to unsalted butter my breasts are no longer tender and in pain two weeks before my period. (It used to be just a week, then it turned to two, then creeping up to three -- sheesh. It was annoying.) And there is no bloating.

How could all of these things cause so many adverse effects to the human body? It's insane.

And for our anniversary my husband and I are going out and getting a steak!!
