Candida Cleanse - Week 1 vs Week 2 Side effects
Today begins week 4 for those of us continuing with the candida cleanse here @gardenofeden.
Our initial plan was to follow an anti-candida diet and 100% gum spirits of turpentine protocol for three weeks. However, since some of us are still finding small amounts of candida in our spit tests, we decided to continue the protocol for another week.
Despite our positive test results, we experience tangible improvements every single day! We want to show how greatly die off symptoms can be reduced just from week 1 to week 2. This is the frequency of symptoms throughout our whole community:
We experienced more occurrences of side effects during the first week vs. the second week. With the exceptions of muscle aches, diarrhea, and increased appetite on the days off the cleanse, everything else trended downward.
As your body detoxes and gets closer to balanced gut & overall health, effects of cleansing are decreased.
We have seen first hand during this cleanse that someone who is much healthier overall has drastically lower side effects compared to someone very toxic. Let's compare Eden Knights 1 & 10 to demonstrate! Here is a little background information before you see the difference in side effects of detox:
Eden Knight 1 -
- Really good overall health
- Great mental stature
- Carries a large amount of responsibility in the community
- Strong emotional stability
- Physically fit
- Does not exercise regularly
- The last few years has not been too overly concerned with what is consumed in this person's diet
- Age is mid 30's
- This person started out with a lower urine pH test in the low 6.0 range
Eden Knight 10 -
- Rather poor overall health
- Large amounts of mental trauma over the last 10+ years
- Has very little responsibility in the community
- Occasional bouts of strong feelings like sadness, possible issues with PTSD
- Has gained strides in physical fitness since coming to the GOE but overall not very physically fit
- Does not exercise regularly
- Diet has been very bad for years. Diet has been much better while doing cleanse, but feels a strong urge for sugars on off days.
- Age is mid 40's
- pH started out in the low 6.0 range at the beginning of cleanse
- Large amounts of mercury toxicity
- Daily smoker

It is easy to see the difference in cleansing experience for these two people! They have some major differences in overall health; that can be creating different side effects for Eden Knight 10.
We encourage everyone to live their happiest, healthiest life possible. As we continue gathering, processing, and analyzing data from our experiment, we will continue to share it on the blockchain so that more may benefit from our experience! We will soon be sharing data from week 3.
We hope this will inspire you to do additional research and work towards the best possible health for yourself!

Interesting. Has there been any analysis of weight loss as well? Is the goal to cleanse and then return to a normal diet? if so, is there a guess as to how long the cleanse's benefits will last if a semi-normal diet is gone back to?
We're not recording weight loss as a data point, but our participants are noticing weight loss and better fitting clothes! The goal is to eradicate candida overgrowth and then maintain enhanced health. No one has yet made declarations as to the kind of diet they will follow when the cleanse is over, but we're becoming more and more aware of the effects of proper vs. poor nutrition.
We have 4 days on the protocol and 3 days off each week, and we notice that some things (like pH of urine) are very quickly affected by just a day or two of either healthy or unhealthy diet! Will be interesting to observe who adjusts to their new baseline of health, and who has the commitment to maintain this investment we're making. We can potentially continue our observations to see how long the benefits last!
Thanks for your explanation and good luck with the rest of your mission.
This is really fun to read the side effects. It makes me want to do it, but not really. I mean, I guess if you could come personally be my chef, and I had a team of support behind me, while I live the daily grind, I'd totally go for it. I need to eat healthier, and I'm sure I could do with a good dose of candida cleansing. Hmmmmmm.
