Recommended Supplementsi
As well as the antibiotics (ABXi) our bodies need these supplementsi to help them recover from the effects of Cpni, the ABXi and the toxins. The most important of these is N-Acetyl Cysteine (NACi). It supports the liver which is going to be doing some hard work during this treatment but more importantly it causes the EBs (Elementary Bodies) to burst open before they have a chance to infiltrate a cell. So it has a direct action on Cpn.

The bold supplements are considered the ones that are essential; on the whole these are fairly inexpensive. But if you can afford it you should aim at taking at least the complete list.
There are other supplements that you may be used to taking or that your doctor may recommend so this is not an exhaustive list. There is more information on supplements here. There is more information on antifungals and probiotics here.
