I met this powerhouse of a woman, Amanda Biccum, while traveling in India on the infamous sandy beach haven of Arambol, Goa. We instantly connected over our passion for yoga, nutrition, and gut health!
All afternoon we geeked-out about how we were managing to stay healthy and on point with our diet while living out of a 70L backpack and constantly moving around (It's not that easy!)
At the time we were both fighting the inevitable parasite infection. You see, every tourist gets sick during their first few weeks in India, especially here since sewage run-off often trickles into the ocean. (Yuk!)
Amanda was fasting on coconut and impressively enough somehow managing to make sauerkraut, and I had just found some diatomaceous earth to help with a stubborn waterborne bacterial infection which was causing me extreme fatigue, bloating, and the occasional midnight vomit session.
We laughed at our current health trials and tribulations, exchanged remedies and alternative health solutions, and connected deeply on the topic of Candida. This deceptive fungus had in the past infected us both to cause chronic health issues, so we knew we were prone to re-infection and were very cautious while travelling.
I introduced her to the
Candida Cleanser and she was very intrigued as she had been recently battling a skin condition called
perioral dermatitis; inflammation of the skin around the mouth, usually in the form of a scaly or bumpy rash.
A few weeks later we said our goodbyes and separated ways. We both returned home to North America around the same time, in the summer of 2017, and each jumped straight into our detox protocols to recover from travelling abroad for so long.
I had been out of the country for 9 months and despite all my best efforts, I had reinfected with Candida, my gut was leaky, I had heavy metal toxicity, and started developing food allergies. July 2017 I did my 4th round of the
45 day Candida Cleanser protocol.Amanda chose to go ahead with a
herbal protocol that lasted 90 days,
(and cost about $300!). After this treatment her test results showed that she
still had some residuals of Candida. That's when she finally decided to try the Candida Cleanser for herself.
Watch what happens.
