Day 4 - Die-Off

Yesterday I received a product called Aquaflora Candida High Potency 9. It taste like water with a tiny drop of Listerine...or maybe it was because I just brushed my teeth. Either way its way better than SuperFoods.  This product is supposed to kill off all nine types of candida.  Let's hope so. Also my nutritionist hinted he wants me to go on a detox after this to remove toxins because this is only removing the candida, not toxins. Oh joy!

Daily Menu
Morning Ritual
B: Spinach, onion, garlic Omelet
L: Leftover Salmon with wilted escarole and butter
S: Coconut protein shake (only 1/3, until I received an e-mail that it wasn't on the diet). It was like coconut ice milk.
D: a large portion of ground turkey mixed with spinach, garlic, onion, and spices.

I just found out my Jay Robb Whey Protein is not allowed because it has lecithin in it which is soy based.  Does this mean I have to start over?! I actually don't want to know. I'm just going to keep doing what I've been doing minus my Jay Robb.  Also and more important is it had Whey Protein Isolate, not Whey Protein Concentrate which is what you want. I just saw a Dr. Mercola video that explains why whey protein isolates are bad if you are interested in learning more.  Start at minute 5:00 - 8:00 if you just want a quick answer. Lessen learned is don't trust something just because it is grass fed.

Right now I feel awful.  I don't know if I overworked myself today or the Die-Off is happening. This is when yeast cells are rapidly killed and metabolic by-products are released into the body. These by-products cause allergic reactions and inflammation that lead to an array of undesirable symptoms. My main one is muscle aches like I have the flu.  I've experienced this before when doing a detox. I thought it would be a few more days before this happened. I'll reevaluate in the a.m. Peace out.


Tip of the day: get some sleep
