I posted a link to the Candida cleanse site in 1032. They have you stop eating gluten and they recommend you take combinations of enzymes and things which helps break down the cell structures of the yeast population (if you have them) in the intestinal tract. You're then, after a short time, supposed to start putting the good Flora back into the intestinal tract. That approach seems to work in several kinds of instances. I had a Gout episode a year ago, and the Goutcure.com website had the best explanation for what had happened chemically to cause the inflammation, and what they recommended to turn the uric acid balance around. Their system was set up the same way. Deplete the uric acid by not consuming anything which helped build it, for weeks. The body does an interesting thing there. It likes a certain level in the bloodstream because its actually an antioxidant at the correct level, and when you deplete it, it will go out an melt the crystals causing the inflammation in the toes and fingers and pull the liquid in, to re-establish the right levels in the blood. Slick feedback loop. The whole reaction happened in the first place because the blood was saturated to the max with uric acid. As the acid reaches the extremities, the slightly cooler temperatures cool the liquid into crystals like the rock candy experiment we used to do as kids, and gravity keeps the crystals pulled low, toes and fingers. The accumulation in the joints rips the synovial lining and causes our grief. Anyway, I didn't mean to go off into that, but they use the same philosophy to deplete the yeast populations, just a different front line of attackers.
