Best products from r/Candida

My lifesaver has been Cindy's Balsamic Vinaigrette It is DELICIOUS and I put it everything! They also have a Vegan Thousand Island you may like too! I usually take sliced bell peppers and some Cindy's to dip it in (so you can digest all that fibrous goodness) as a quick snack. Apples and almond butter are yummy, and microwavable lentils similar to these can make for a good snack when you want a little more than just a fruit or veggie.

Your anti-fungals are causing detox die off reactions (Herxheimer). As bad as it makes you feel, take comfort in the fact that you're getting rid of the crud.

​

Drink lots of water, keep moving (walk, gentle exercise), consider taking apple pectin supplements or activated charcoal to help flush the toxins out of your gut.

​

If you're not already taking probiotics, consider these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WZ4VQ52

​

The one thing that I have found that is effective in easing die off symptoms is CBD oil, or full-spectrum hemp oil. No thc so you don't get high. It helps my mood, my fatigue and keeps the vertigo at bay. It's newly legal in the US, but make sure it's legal where you are.

​

Edit to address the kidneys: The kidneys may improve as your candida treatments continue, but you may additional treatments of whatever sort.

​

Good luck!

I was in a similar place. Take processed sugar out of your diet for good. Try to limit high sugar fruits and vegetables too. Try exercising to get rid of the negative thoughts, it really helps but you have to start and do it pretty regularly. And if you think for sure it's candida then try this "Dr Tobias Candida Support" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YCPY87U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_YKZuDb982X1VS . Its working wonders for me and I'm shocked it actually works. Read the reviews as well that's what gave me some hope.

I’ve been using pau d’arco on and off. It’s a strong one. I use milk thistle, ginger and dandelion for the liver, they seem to help with die off

Where did you get your turpentine from? I used 30drops or 1/3 tsp Diamond G. I definitely felt something, the psychedelic/drunk effect was there, but there’s recent reviews saying it’s been watered down and not the same formula. So I just ordered another brand to compare to:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07CGLQR9Y/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There’s also a supplier on eBay that sells 16oz for $20 free ship. Best deal I’ve seen but no reviews or any information about how it’s processed.

I took the castor oil with it and still haven’t needed to use the bathroom after 8 hours, lots of gas though

The way I understand die-off type reactions is that they mean that your detoxification pathways are overwhelmed...not necessarily that lots of things are dying (but it may be both). Medications, natural or otherwise, can be harsh and may need to be processed by our liver or other detox pathways.

So, before we start trying to kill things, I think it's wise to try and support our detoxification pathways. We also need to work to support our immune system that will naturally kill (or at least make them weaker to supplements) things like candida even without external supplements or medication that.

So - once this "die off/dextox pathway overwhelm" stops - or even before then - I would look very deeply these aspects of your life:

• sleep - the book why we sleep - nearly everything recommended in that book is free and high quality sleep over time can massively improve your and immune function and support your detoxification pathways https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Sleep-Unlocking-Dreams/dp/1501144316
  
• blood sugar control - figure out how to manage your blood sugar - things like protein, fat and fiber are your friend in this regard. Meal spacing can be another factor.
  
• stress - the more intense the stress and the longer lasting it is, the more we need to sort this out. We may need to make significant changes to our life - we may need to change our perspective for things we can't change - or we may need to make a longer term plan...not easy, but has a massive impact.
  
• movement - I would look at the recommendations for elderly people and start to make sure that those minimum thresholds of movement are met every day --- I've found in my own life that BM's, energy and arthritic symptoms get completely turned around with the right intensity and type of movement. You shouldn't do things that make you feel terrible - eg. if you feel like you were run over by a bus the day after working out, dial it back

My box fan and filter have helped the most in regards to mental clarity.

As for suicide, ummm for my spiritual health i listen to abraham hicks videos. https://youtu.be/sH1HH268D7o

I think its brave to share your journey and smart that you are looking for help.

Sorry for the late reply, my internet got shut off, haha. I started going on an anti-candida diet, cut out as much sugar as I could, no processed foods, I ate scrambled eggs with coconut oil, garlic, and turmeric for breakfast, nothing for lunch, and a chicken thigh with either a spinach/spring mix salad mix or broccoli and cauliflower. This brought me up to about 25%, then I started drinking Bragg's apple cider vinegar (1 tablespoon per 8 ounces) twice a day and that brought me up to about 50% and taking Advanced Multi-Billion Dophilus. That's all I ate for about a month. Some issues with that is weight loss, fatigue, and my wounds heal extremely slow now. I have a major surgery next week and I need to go back to a balanced diet so I can heal again but I definitely felt like if I have stayed on that diet I'd feel about 75%-100% better in another month or so. Good luck!

I don’t know how to diagnose - I can only see the obvious in that luckily 2/3 are in range and one is slightly high. I’m not sure how sensitive that 0.2 over can be.
I’ve read amazing things about Dr. Tobias CandidaFX - I’ve been using his Pre-Biotic and it’s great. I haven’t used the CandidaFX due to being on another treatment plan already, but I would if I could. Try checking it out if you’re interested, and/or see if you can find someone who specializes in Candida in your area (I’m seeing both a GI and acupuncturist).

Me too, ive tried many things..i have serious skin sensitivity, i had a bad reactions on some creams i was prescribed by doctors.

Two questions

• Did you have antifungal supplements regime, for a period of time ?
  
• Did you get a rebound candida after your the course of Diflucan, Lamisil, Ibuprofen, Apolactoferrin ?
  
  Id like to try 2 x pills per day of 'now' candida support it, contains Pau D'Arco, Oregano Oil, Black Walnut & Caprylic Acid. Then 1 x 20CFU probiotic pill per day at night.
  
  Whilst being on a healthy strict diet
  
  Here you can read some reviews for the candida support supplements. I recommend reading the review of user 'Guter' she managed to get rid of chronic candida with a specific regime.

Also, try to get this vitamin, it's awesome and also has enzymes to help break down your food so it won't turn into sugar (which leads to feeding it more), and also has good components to help you detox from the die off toxins. Whole foods carries it too. I also got the omega-3's of this brand too, and take those twice a day.

Try this nasal rinse, it’s been a true life saver for me.

NeilMed Sinus Rinse All Natural Relief Premixed Refill Packets 100 Each https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TU5P33K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_3F-3BbDVGBK12

Pro 50 from Vitamin Bounty

Ultra 30 from Island’s Miracle

These are the two I’ve been taking, specifically chosen for certain helpful strains, especially against candida. The latter seems to be particularly helpful

I eat one clove but have to chew it i tried taking it little bites throughout the day at first. Then got used to chewing it all at once . Also i have recently started Now supplements candida support ordered from amazon and monolaurin by laciridin look it up on amazon reviews and all. Lauricidin®- The Original... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004I8SMOQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

That could be candida, but it's hard to say. Pic is a bit blurry. Do you have rashes anywhere else? Like on your legs/stomache/chest etc? Candida rashes are basically diaper rash if you've ever seen that.

Have you tried any oils yet? The only thing that helped my candida rashes was Melrose Oil by Young Living, or the less expensive Disinfect! Oil Blend by Miracle Botanicals. One drops goes a long way and works really fast if it is candida.

There is a good book on this topic: The Candida Cure by Ann Boroch. I highly recommend her program.

Any reason why bill Thompson isn't anywhere on this reddit? If you serious about getting rid of Candida follow the free link on top and buy his book. Bill has kill Candida and been without it for 6 + years.. I been following his regimen and this is the best I have ever felt.. finally feel like a normal human being.

Candida: Killing So Sweetly: Proven Home Remedies to Conquer Fungus and Yeast Infection https://www.amazon.com/dp/0982896387/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_CuQHDbEJ0XF9D

I totally understand what you are going through! I have been battling yeast infections for three years straight after being put on antibiotics. Seriously try boric acid suppositories, they work like a dream! You can make them yourself, or order them already made from Amazon (just make sure you keep them in the fridge or else they will melt). I would suggest also sticking with the candida diet as much as you can so as not to feed the yeast. One thing to consider is checking your hormone levels, I recently found out the recurrent infections were due to too much estrogen (estrogen dominance) resulting in an abnormally low amount of progesterone. Estrogen feeds candida like crazy, so maybe look into that to see if you are estrogen dominant and correct the problem there as well. Here is the link for the boric acid suppositires: http://www.amazon.com/Vitanica-homeopathic-Formula-Vaginal-Suppositories/dp/B004WPBYUY/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1462560161&sr=8-1&keywords=yeast+arrest

Fun fact: I no longer refer to it as a Candida overgrowth, but “dysbiosis,” as there are many strains of bacteria that are out of balance.

I personally benefited from a liver detox supplement for the bile/mucous in my stools, eating plenty of fibrous vegetables, and drinking ~3 liters of water every day (I weigh 160lbs).

I poop multiple times a day—each stool is solid and slides out with ease. Plus, when I wipe my booty hole, there is no residue left on the toilet paper.

Your bum will thank you.

I found the book "The Candida Cure" by Anne Boroch to be extremely useful.

> look for an S Boulardii specific probiotic

Could you get this from Amazon and still have it work? I'm talking about the Jarrow brand you mention, this one. Does it have to remain cold like (seemingly) most probiotics or does this work at room temp?

I would love to help if any way possible. Sounds like you have the food intake down pat. I did read your entire story. The teen medication started the trend of bad bacterial over good, or the good being killed by antibiotic allowing the bad to overflow. and then other antibacterials hurt your gut bacterial even more later on.


Ill share my story, from 20-30 I drank alchol every night, probably like 10 shots. I also didnt eat well, a lot of processed and fast foods. I drank a lot of energy drinks and downed bags of candy at night. Entire bags of sour patch kids (while going through a oxy opiate controlled habit) this lead to the build up of pain in my stomach and restricted morning pee'ing, and the typical loss of energy... eventually leading me here to learn about Candida (never knew about it) Pain developed around my belly button area, above i


Im going to list my top products that I purchased and have been using within the last 3 weeks that have made me feel better each day forward since taking them (not sure if only one is working better than the rest or all them working together). I moderate the dosing since all at once, so I make sure not to go overboard with all these together. After the first 2 days I experienced die off in the form of stomach rumbling and discomfort and a day of lack of energy. Luckily for me this lasted only about 2 - 4 days.

These products use Herbs and all natural food ingredients (this is very important) no chemicals. I think what you need is a little extra push from these herbs rather than just relying on your body to take care of the candida (which I commend your diet effort!)

1. Oil of Oregano - https://www.amazon.com/ZANE-HELLAS-Essential-Oregano-Carvacrol/dp/B017YT1FQ2/ref=sr_1_11_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1522069265&sr=1-11&keywords=oil+of+oregano

This is one of the two probiotics I ordered, this one has that strain and it seems to be one of the highest rated probiotics on Amazon.
