THE PARATHYROID AND OTHER INFO
The Parathyroid (for more info, visit www.parathyroid.com)
The sole purpose of the parathyroid glands is to control calcium within the blood in a very tight range between 8.5 and 10.5. In doing so, they also control how much calcium is in the bones, and therefore, how strong and dense the bones are.
When the parathyroid shuts down -- stress causes this -- then you don't get enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach to break the calcium down. This provides the perfect environment for candida to grow.
Going on the candida diet and taking the Formula 722 pills will be to no avail if your parathyroid and/or parotid gland is not working.
How can you tell if it's working? Muscle testing, or kineseology, is a quick and simple way to test it. It's not scientific and of course these methods would be refuted by "medical professionals". Personally, I have found that a kineseologist can provide me with just as or more accurate diagnoses as medically trained professionals.
What do can you do to make it function again? There are two products that I am aware of, because I had to take both of them (not at the same time, but when I ran out of one, the doctor put me on a different one). One is called Parathyroid and it's made by Rajuuva. The other is called Parathyrolate and Progressive Laboratories makes it. I know that Dr. Piller sells it but I do not have time to research where else you can get it. If you find out, you can let me know and I'll include it here.

The Parotid
The parotid gland is responsible for the first stage of starch digestion. I'm not sure exactly where it is ... near the jaw or in the neck. You can ask Dr. Piller's office if you want to do muscle testing for it. At some point I was not digesting my starches so he put me on 2 per day (one in the morning and one at night) of this product. You can now buy it at amazon.com. Click the link below to go directly to amazon.com to make a purchase.
Good Nutrition
"Treating the vagina alone is often a waste of time and money," says William Crook, M.D., author of The Yeast Connection and the Woman and a physician in Jackson, Tennessee. "Although vaginal suppositories may help, we also need to concentrate on putting the right things in your body to take care of the source of the problem."

It says here "But since these medications (i.e. Monistat) won't kick candida out for good, and since yeast infection recurrence is common, doctors say you have to be a bad host if you want to stay yeast-free."
And you know what they mean by this? It means you are responsible for maintaining a sugar-free yeast-free diet with acidophilus for a healthy intestinal track. So for all of you who keep asking me "Do I HAVE to go on the diet? Is there any other way?"
No.
