I know that these claims sound almost too good to be true, but I assure you that by simply changing your diet and eating foods that are free of toxic chemicals and yeast you will be amazed at how great you feel.
Quite frankly, when I first sat down to write this letter I realized I had a serious problem.
My problem? How to compress the vast information that I have gathered over the last 7 years into simple action steps, tips and recipes that anyone can follow to improve their health and the health of their family.Information such as the health dangers that our society faces because of our vast consumption of yeast, toxic chemicals, highly refined foods and empty carbohydrates.
That's my problem alright. But, if you hang in here with me for a few minutes, you'll quickly see that what I have to offer you is informative, valuable and SIMPLE!
Yep‚ that's what they told me when I was just 34 years old. My middle toe on my right foot had swollen to almost three times its normal size.It hurt tremendously to walk. So, my husband had taken me to a podiatrist who was a friend of ours.He took one look at my toe and said that I had "sausage toe."
"What in the world is sausage toe?" I questioned.He asked me if I had any form of eczema or psoriasis.He explained that sausage toe was seen in people with these conditions, and that they were predisposed to a form of arthritis known as Psoriatic Arthritis. I had experienced eczema flare-ups often when I was young, but thought that I had outgrown it.
Well, needless to say, I was in shock and disbelief. I was only 34 years old.I was too young to have arthritis of any kind. I had two small children to care for. I had a husband that I wanted to spend quality time with. I had too many things I still wanted to accomplish. This could not be happening to me!
Not until 4 long and frustrating months later did I figure out how this had all started. Over the 4 months, the pain and swollen joints had spread rapidly - to the point that some days I could not even get out of bed. I had developed headaches, brain fog, a lack of concentration, depression, and to my husbands chagrin, no libido. I knew deep down that there had to be another explanation for the symptoms I was experiencing.
Through knowledge gained by reading many books, research on the internet, and a wonderful doctor who attended church with me, I discovered that my problems were yeast related. She suggested that I try eliminating all yeast, molds and fungi from my diet stick with whole, organic foods, take quality supplements and see what would happen.
I did and in just 2 months, I was back to my normal, happy, healthy self. And, my toe was back to its normal size.
I have to admit, it was not an easy 2 months.But, I'll tell you why in a minute.
How did I develop this yeast problem in the first place? Well, I believe it all started with my daughter coming down with strep throat. The next thing I knew, I had it, too! The doctor said that I had a severe case and needed a shot of antibiotics, as well as a 10 day prescription. All I wanted was to feel better, so I took the medicine.Unfortunately, I had a reaction and broke out in hives. So, to treat the hives the doctor gave me a round of steroids.
About 2 weeks later, my dentist told me that an old filling needed to be replaced. However, when he removed the old mercury filling I had not been fitted with the barrier at the back of my mouth that should have been used to keep me from ingesting the small bits of metal.
The antibiotics, the steroids and the mercury combined to make my body a breeding ground for out-of-control yeast. And, because of the excessive yeast in my system and the toxins that it produces, along with the massive amounts of toxins that our bodies take in just from everyday living, I also developed a large sensitivity to foods that contained yeast, mold and fungi.
Yeast makes a number of chemical compounds which the body picks up and absorbs. To most folks, they may not feel much effect. However, other people may have more of a sensitivity which shows up through vaginal yeast infections, diarrhea/constipation and headaches. And then there are the rest of us, whose bodies have a difficult time handling these compounds and toxins. We feel sick, but we can't figure out why.
Penicillin is one of the earliest discovered and widely used antibiotic agents, derived from the Penicillium mold. Antibiotics are natural substances that are released by bacteria and fungi into their environment, as a means of inhibiting other organisms - it is chemical warfare on a microscopic scale.
Many of the chemicals that yeast (mold, fungi) produce are also made to kill bacteria. If you continue to eat a diet rich in yeast, or foods that yeast have produced, you are taking in a low level of antibacterial chemicals, or antibiotics, all the time.
Antibiotics kill bacteria. The problem is that they don't know the difference between good bacteria and bad.
Each of us has a certain amount of good bacteria and yeast in our intestines. When we consume antibiotics, whether in the form of prescription drugs, or chemicals and toxins produced from our yeast rich diets, we are killing the good bacteria in the gut.
When this happens, a space has been provided for the yeast to grow. This creates an imbalance between the good bacteria, or flora, and the yeast. If we continue to eat our yeasty, highly refined, sugary diet, we provide just the food that the yeast needs to grow at rapid speed.
The yeast will continue to grow and can eventually stretch the gut (can you picture what bread dough looks like when its rising!) which allows undigested food and toxins to leak out into the body. This condition is called "leaky gut syndrome" and brings a whole host of problems and symptoms along with it, including headaches, joint pain and swelling, and lots more.
In fact, a person who is allergic to yeast can have many of the same problems that an alcoholic can have including an overwhelming craving and desire - an addiction - to yeast containing foods and high sugar foods that feed the yeast.
For some folks, simply eating vinegar, which is produced by yeast and fermentation, can be intoxicating if they are sensitive to yeasts. They may feel as if they have had a glass of wine and can experience a "hangover"the next morning.
Alcoholics could actually be people with severe yeast sensitivities that are addicted to yeast. If the addiction can be stopped and the yeast and flora rebalanced, an alcoholic may lose the need to drink and thus overcome the dependency of alcohol.
The list seems to grow daily with the more research that is done. And, you'll lose weight and feel great.
Imagine your child's autistic symptoms diminishing, or not hurting all over when you get out of bed in the morning, or your spouse being able to think more clearly. How wonderful would it be to actually feel great after every meal?
Sound too good to be true? Well, it isn't if you have the right tools and resources.
You see, back 11 years ago, Organic foods were not as readily available in your local grocery stores as they are now. And, most recipes that I found in allergy cookbooks my kids would not touch ‚ and I didn't blame them ‚ YUK!
Other so called "healthy"cookbooks and websites had recipes loaded with artificial sweeteners, tons of cheese (which is a mold), items with hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils, and the list goes on.
So, my solution was just to stop eating, because it was too hard to figure out what to eat.I didn't feel good enough to bother with cooking anyway. It was just too much hassle.Sure, I lost a lot of weight, but I felt horrible and had zero energy. And, I wasn't giving my body enough fuel to cleanse and repair itself.
I learned through trial and error about great substitutes for wheat, other gluten grains, eggs, dairy and other allergens. And, trust me there was plenty of error. Just ask the birds in my back yard who got to eat all of that "error." Lucky for them they weren't picky!
I have collected over 218 books and countless articles on food allergies, yeast allergies, cooking techniques...and the list goes on. I have thousands of old recipes and cooking tips that I have created and accumulated. In fact, when my grandmother passed away, I was left her collection of cookbooks and recipe files. I treasure the hand written notes in the margins of her cookbooks and the tattered recipes cut or torn from newspapers and magazines. Most of them are over 80 years old! What a treasure trove of lost recipes from a healthier, simpler time that have formed the basis of many of the recipes that you can enjoy from the "Yeast Free Cooking" eBook.
So, instead of knocking yourself out trying to come up with just the right recipe conversion or extra ingredient, you can now have a scrumptious meal on the table in no time and not worry about possible allergic reactions.
What is it worth for you to live pain free, to get out of the bed in the morning excited and feeling good, to have clear, beautiful skin, to be able to think clearer, to go without bloating and gas, to be headache free, to lose weight, to just feel GREAT! You can't put a price tag on any of this.
How much is a doctor's office visit these days, $200+? What about a round of prescription drugs: $50, $80, $120, or more? It was suggested that I charge $79.99 for my Yeast Free Cooking Manual, which is tremendously less than a doctor's office visit. But, it will not cost you anywhere near that amount.
So what's the catch? Why am I practically giving this resource away?
Well, it's really quite simple I will never forget when the doctor told me what I couldn't eat anymore. Remember the more I thought about the list of foods that I was to avoid, the more I thought‚
I personally guarantee that you and your family can be eating healthy, delicious, toxin free meals in less than 24 hours!
