Default medication

I have been on Elavil and Wellbutrin for about the past 4 years, for depression and ADD treatment. I started this LC diet in January and I also went on a anti candida therapy called Candistroy, a natural yeast killer... I've never felt better in my life, and I've stopped taking the Elavil, but still take the Wellbutrin but I've cut the dosage on that in half. I've also been able to stop taking prilosec that I'd been on for about 8 years for gastric reflux which has gone away.

Sugar and Carbs IMHO are the culprit of all the problems you describe, at least they were for me, and they killed my mom at age 64 from diabetes. Read Atkins book... you'll learn a lot.

Good Luck,
Laurie
