Candida Elimination

Hi Wiggy, thanks for sharing the link. Great reference.  Have added it here from the source you shared.  It could be useful, I have followed much of this approach for years pre-CAPi and when tested had a negative titer for Candida.  Hope this will be easy for folks to reference here.

Five Steps to Candida Elimination

This program was designed by naturopath, Gary Brewer.

"Successful control and elimination of a Candida Albicans overgrowth requires a multifaceted program as described below. Failure to follow ALL the steps simultaneously will result in slow progress and will lengthen healing time significantly. The program should be tailored to the individual and must balance the need to eliminate the Candida and deprive it of its food source while insuring proper nutrition for the individual."

Five Steps to Candida Elimination:

  1. You must starve it into submission by eliminating its food source.
  2. You must kill it with anti-fungal herbs and supplementsi. [e.g....garlic, onion, caprylic acid, Pau D'Arco capsules or tea, clove, grapefruit seed extract, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, tea tree oil, Echinacea, Goldenseal, black walnut, MSM, barberry root, uva ursi, neem leaf, biotin]
  3. You must reestablish the proper balance and quantity of probiotic bacteria in the digestive tract. [...multi-strain lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidus capsules with FOS, Probiotic Enhancer A complex of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) - a group of naturally occurring carbohydrates that are indigestible by humans but serve as food for "friendly" flora, helping to increase their numbers in the body. (should be taken between meals to maximize repopulation of the digestive tract by beneficial bacteria.]
  4. You must reestablish proper levels of all B vitamins (yeast free) and utilize other immunei enhancing supplementsi to boost immune system function. [e.g ... B complex vitamins (yeast free), biotin, beta 1-3 glucan, colostrum, maitake mushroom, vitamins A, C, E, zinc and selenium]
  5. You must cleanse and heal the digestive tract to promote proper elimination of  toxins and Candida and assimilation of nutrients. [e.g...chlorophyll, MSM, omega 3 fatty acids found in flax seed and salmon oils, GLA found in borage, evening primrose and black currant oils. Pantothenic acid, digestive enzymes between meals]

One of the easiest ways I

One of the easiest ways I have found to control candida is through the Wholeapproach.com method.    In addition to diet modification you drink a daily mix of caproyl, bentonite clay (liquid) and psyllium.  This was recommended to me by my naturopathic doctor in 2000.  I've passed it along to a few others here (I think Cypriane uses it for Steve).

You can purchase the ingredients online from various souces (i.e., different sources, different prices).

Great Louise - I did find

Great Louise - I did find this helpful and I really got into trouble with yeast early in the protocol. If I had started following this in the beginning, I may have done a lot better. My problem with yeast went on for over a year before it was really addressed. Now I follow this approach and took diflucan for 90 days - still take 1/week for maintenance of yeast. My toes were covered in fungus for 2 summers - Next summer I will wear sandels! My toe nails pink except big toes need to grow out more. I want to help new people avoid this.
