Q & A

Dear Miriam, I have a problem with sugar, I love it, I crave it and I can’t get enough of it.   I eat biscuits, cake and dried fruit everyday, I know its bad for me, but I can’t stop, I’m like a woman possessed!  What can I do?

Fiona Little, P.A

Dear Fiona,

There are 3 main reasons why we crave sugar. 1) We are mineral deficient.  2) We have an over-growth of Candida albicans, a fungus in our system which feeds off sugar, and makes you crave it.  3) For emotional comfort, when our lives are stressful, and when there is a lack of sweetness (love) if our lives. 

Colloidal Minerals are the most effective way of replenishing multi-mineral levels, they are microscopic, from plants and highly absorbed.  The most effective way of destroying Candida in the body is with herbal medicine, this way diet restrictions need only be moderate.  In what way are you not nurturing yourself, are you allowing yourself to relax and be in nature?
