Question
I would like to know if the sugar substitue Stevia will keep my blood sugar up because I am going to use it as a substitue for a few months for my candida. One naturopath online says stay away from whole grains, legumes, and nuts. But I am a vegetarian so I have to have that in my diet. I am underweight so I drink 20 tablespoons of olive oil a day to help me in gaining weight as well which I hope that won't give me any health problems.

I would like to know if the sugar substitue Stevia will keep my blood sugar up DO YOU MEAN FROM AN ENERGY POINT OF VIEW OR A DIABETIC ONE? because I am going to use it as a substitue for a few months for my candida. GOOD APPROACH TO REDUCING A FOOD SUPPLY FOR THE CANDIDA. THIS ALSO TELLS ME THAT YOU HAVE ALLERGIES AND ENERGY ISSUES, HYPOGLYCEMIA. FIX YOUR ADRENAL GLANDS AND REEXAMINE WHAT IS CAUSING YOU THE STRESS IN YOUR LIFE. One naturopath online says stay away from whole grains, legumes, and nuts.WHY?  But I am a vegetarian so I have to have that in my diet. I am underweight so I drink 20 tablespoons of olive oil a day to help me in gaining weight as well which I hope that won't give me any health problems. THERE IS A UNIVERSAL TEACHING THAT STATES THAT EXCESS LEADS TO REJECTION. EVERYTHING IN MODERATION IS ANOTHER GOOD ONE TO KEEP IN MIND  B12 STIMULATES APPETITE.

Expertise

Michael can answer questions relating to naturopathic nutritional and supplement programs that support homeostasis and help to control and avoid diseases and conditions.

Experience

With over 25 years of experience as a naturopathic counselor and producer of nutritional supplements and other products, Michael Schwartz pioneered the synergistically complete concept, which has become an industry standard, as well as gender-specific supplements. His first naturopathic formulas, designed to nourish and support the body in its natural return to harmony and good health, were created originally for family, friends and clients. When Michael founded his supplement company in 1984, these formulas were offered to the public. Michael's belief in the principles of naturopathy has led him to rule out offering anything not in the true spirit of health, such as hormone or glandular-based products or fads. Michael now lends his expertise through his book "Health and Disease Symbology Handbook: A Mind-Body Perspective", helping those afflicted with diseases and conditions discover the root cause of ailments and, through recognizing patterns of behavior and utilizing proper nutrition, help control and avoid illness.
