Post Anti-candida remedies

Are there any out there that can be bought over the counter that are proven to work without upsetting the system?

Good old yogurt with live active cultures works well and so does acidophillis capsules or the sprinkles. You can by any of those in the drug section of your stores.

Samuelemouse,
There are many OTC remedies that are antifungal as well as candida killers.

Caprilic acid is sold in a delayed action form --Capystatin and in a sustained release form -- Caprinex and Capricin.

Garlic also inhibits bacteria grow a Good brand is Garlinase from Enzymatic Therapy.

Aloe vera juice ---kills yeast by boosting the white cells abilities!!!

Pau d'arco capsules and tea, clove tea, and maitake tea --- all contain anti-fungal agents.

Kolorex that is a patented herb from New Zealand is GOOD.

Candida Forte from Nature's Plus is good for mild candida overgrowth.

As you may know Candida thrives on sugary food ---so you need to cut out the things that contains sugar including most fruit and simple carbohydrates that are readily converted to sugar in your mouth. This cuts off the candida food supply and should be used in any anti-candida program.

I have read that calcium is usually lacking in those that have Candidiais and magnesium is needed for calicium absorption along with vitamin D.

And, of course you have to recolonize your intestinal tract with the friendly bacteria as migables suggested. But, I have found that because I don't go on a very strict anti-candida diet --yogurt and probiotic supplements just don't eliminate the candida overgrowth for me--- I eat ice cream and sometimes cookies--- not good for candida.

People that take anti-acids and Proton Pump Inhibiters cause there to be less acid in their stomachs resulting in fungi growth. Regular acids or higher acid in the stomach inhibits bacteria growth.

I wish you well---Harry

Thanks Mgable. But yoghurt would kill me (lactose intolerant).

Thanks also Harry. Garlic would kill my friends. Does Kolorex really work? I am afraid of taking something new that could be toxic or have unforeseen side-effects, given that there is not much regulation of the industry.

Samuele,

People that are lactose intolerant are usually able to eat yogurt. The 2 bacteri that it takes to make all brands of yogurt -- DIGEST the lactose ---making it basically lastose free. Additional active live cultures are added to the yogurt. The best brands with many strains of active live bacteria are sold at health food stores. You should try a good brand!!!

I use Kolorex and I have not had any side effects. It works!!!

There are many odorless garlic pills on the market that work!!! The one I recommened is One of the best.

Harry
