I normally get in our hot tub after running but afraid that might cause a bad reaction. Wonder if any of our Grover’s group has a thought on hot tubs. Sounds like exactly the opposite of what I’m supposed to do but I’m rash-free with my cilantro smoothie diet.
I am still hopeful about cilantro as my most recent breakout of GD beginning end of Feb has stalled since beginning the cilantro club, cc, about a month ago so do give it a try. It's not as disgusting to drink daily as I thought it would be.
Yeast, me too- Surprisingly and out of desperation for chronic yeast issues I began a detox to kill off the residual yeast that lives in our colons beginning in Nov 18. A gynecologist who is a not mainstream recommended this and it was hard for me to believe. I resisted this yeast detox for years as it is a major sacrifice. When the yeast is starving it is sending messages to your brain demanding sugar, much like a junkie has messages sent to the brain with the body demanding drugs. Sugar is an addiction, yet now I know will power can win out, you simply must be miserable enough to attempt the detox. On my own learning more about dietary changes finally made up my mind to make the sacrifice. NO SUGAR (NATURAL OR PROCESSED) OR CARBS IN ANY FORM FOR 2 MONTHS minimum and for some may take 3 months. My yeast symptoms left after 6 weeks yet I stuck with the kill off for 3 months just to be sure. After that ok to allow myself a few servings of fruit a week and gluten free carbs a few times a week. Still free of burning and itching from yeast. This is a life plan. This diet is also supposed to help with eczema inflammation, yet even with this plan in which killed off my yeast I began a GD breakout in Feb, yet perhaps this yeast kill off, plus the cilantro is helping to make this the lightest breakout I have had in 4 years.
