I don't know.

Here in Iceland the only thing I see is "Modified corn/potato starch".

But I tend to shy away from any pre packaged foods anyway that might contain GMO stuff.

Well, Iceland just had it's hottest summer in history.

Thailand which I spent my summer in last year, had their hottest summer then aswell.

Perhaps these are fluctuations and perhaps I'm misinformed, but things are definitely hot right now.

tldr but.. >_>

Global warming a scam? I don't think so.

I wasn't trying to imply that it applies to everyone--just suggesting a potential explanation for RawZi's specific case. That doesn't mean it applies at all to you. Individuals are different and what applies to one doesn't necessarily apply to another.

Katelyn recently reported noticing much hate directed at ZCers/VLCers here. I've noticed it too, and it seems to be building. What gives? My philosophy is "to each their own" and "live and let live" and let's speak for ourselves. Why can't we do that?

I find my self annoyed at some of the ZCers here sometimes. Not because they are ZC, but because the way they act. They act like ZC is so right and that everyone else are idiots that don't go ZC. An exaggeration perhaps, but it has that vibe to it.

When I write something on here I say what works and doesn't work for ME. I don't go making huge claims that what I'm doing is right and fits everyone. Because that's not the case. Different bodies, different heritage, different reactions to different foods. Thats what I say.

That's all well and good but when I overeat I go to the bathroom more often than normal. A normal day for me is once a day but when overeating it's at least twice a day.
I eat RZC because my body can't tolerate carbs; the carbs perpetuate a leaky gut in me which has resulted in an extensive list of true food allergies.

Yeah I guess everyone is different. If I over eat I'll get constipated for days on end

FWIW I've bolded the foods in your list that do exacerbate my Candida. Some only exacerbate when eaten in larger amounts (eggs) and some would take a small bit to exacerbate (berries). There are others in the list that may or may not but my food allergies prevented me from experimenting with them once I'd gotten my Candida under enough control that I could accurately gauge things.

Also of note I have Tinea Versicolor which has exhibited a correlation to my internal battle with Candida. When the Candida gets bad the Tinea flares up and when the Candida is under control the Tinea disappears. When I began eating RZC I transitioned into a 1-2 meal a day plan with plenty of intermittent fasting (at least 16 hours a day). The Tinea slowly but surely receded. The past couple months I'd been eating 3 meals a day, with plenty of protein, and the Tinea has gotten noticeably bad. Ive gone back to how I was eating before and things are progressing in the right direction again. To me this indicates that even meat/protein can feed my fungal issues so I need to eat at points where I will utilize it all and not have left overs to feed fungus.

I don't think it's the fungus that causes your tinea to flair up. I think it has something to do with fecal matter in the colon.

Take me for example, I have eczema issues and like you I always thought "candida candida candida". If I over eat, and got constipated then things would flare up badly, but if my colon was kept pretty regular I'd be really good. Now I've also done juice fasts where I drank unlimited amount of juice, sugary and pasturized crap.  I also used enemas regularly to make sure my colon was always squeaky clean. But the fruit drinks in theory should make my 'candida' flare up like crazy. But it definitely didn't. My eczema improved drastically and I felt awesome. Now that I'm eating again and I'm slightly constipated my problems resurface big time. So I've come to the conclusion it's more because of old fecal matter not being released when it should, rather than candida.

Perhaps the 'candida' is feasting on stuck fecal matter, but even if so, I still think it's more important to keep your bowel movements regular than avoiding carbs.

Native Icelanders are not accustomed to a lot of fruits. They've always eaten only a little bit of them. Am I wrong?

Fruit started here probably 200 years ago and then it was a rarity and people only had it for christmas and only the rich people.

There is no fruit grown here what so ever. My parents and grandparents never touch fruit, my dad for example, just doesn't want it. Never ever eats it even though there's always a lot of fruit available. But yeah there's plenty of imported supermarket fruit.

Ive tried to look it up. but you can only get stuff thats been frozen and it is supposed to taste something like cognac with coffee and cream. Which...well that sounds lovely  actually, but I have still not even found the frozen stuff.

Yeah, I guess it could be said to taste something like that.

I'd describe it as a creamy custard desert with a tinge of cognac. It is really a spectacular fruit. It is very potent.

Your title is sort of misleading but thanks for the video. Most enjoyable

I gave up after 6 weeks aswell. My heart stopped racing eventually and my energy levels were pretty OK, but my mind was a total mess. Irritability, brainfog, couldn't concentrate.. etc

I wouldn't recommend rzc but that's how I experienced it.

I've done two liver cleanses and that uses epsom salts, which although is not the same thing as normal salt.

I'm happy with the results with that.

But think i'd ever drink several teaspoons of normal salt. But if you do, make sure you use natural sea salt or himalayan rock salt
