Does anyone know of a good, non-antibiotic treatment of Candida?

Question by What?: Does anyone know of a good, non-antibiotic treatment of Candida?
I’m pretty sensitive to them and want to give something else a try. I’ve tried Threelac, but, the side effects were horrid (even in reduced dosage) and I want to know if there’s something else that could help. Thanks.

Do you have an actual Candida infection, ie thrush or a vaginal infection?

C. ablicans is a favorite of cranks. They love to claim people have “candida overgrowth,” a completely fictitious condition they invented to sell supplements and treatments. Real systemic candiasis is a life threatening condition that needs anti-fungals. However, this only happens in individuals that are extremely immune compromised.

For the real C. albicans infections, anti-fungals are just about the only thing that actual works.

Q&A: Has anyone had dizziness problems with candida?

Question by countrychic_83: Has anyone had dizziness problems with candida?
I’ve had mild dizziness for the last 3 years I’ve had MRI scans, been to chiropractors etc etc etc and no one seems to know whats wrong with me although I have just seen a naturopath and he seems to think I have candida.

Answer by IBASI Healing Ministries

I’m a clinical pharmacist and have trained about 5yrs in acupuncture and traditional chinese medicine. Whenever western medicine and chiropractic can not solve the problem, I always refer my patients to a licensed Acupuncturist who is full-scope, meaning expert in chinese herbs as well as moxa, medical massage, cupping and needles, etc.

I have confidence that they will do a differential diagnosis that will easily pin-point the imbalance that is causing your mild dizziness. Make sure you opt for chinese herb formulas that are made in the USA and tested for GMP (USA codes for good manufacturing processes) to avoid the issue of heavy metal poisoning and contaminants coming out of China these days.

You may also want to check with your Naturopathics about heavy metal hair analysis – some heavy metal poisonings may produce mild symptoms like yours. I am assuming you have had a clinical pharmacist such as myself review ALL your medications, herb and drug suppliments? Many herbs and drugs, and combinations there of, not to mention illegal or illicit drugs, can cause lightheadedness and dizziness.

Best of luck to you,

Dr. D. Nostrum, Pharm.D.

Does anyone have recipes for the candida diet?

Question by ohyeah: Does anyone have recipes for the candida diet?
I am looking for main dishes, condiments, non-alcoholic drinks, bread, desserts, and substitutions for cheese, yogurt, yeast, milk, and anything else interesting. Thanks for any help you can give me for this “yeast monster” problem!

Use diabetic foods. If you have yeast so bad you are “doing a diet” for it, you SERIOUSLY need to see a doc ASAP. Candida is a fungus. You should be screened for Diabetes. Diabetics can have severe issues with fungi. It is very difficult for them to get rid of it without medical supervision. The yeast lives off all the “sugar” in the diabetic’s body. It can cause serious infections that can even be deadly.

I bought a candida cleamse want to know were there posititve results/benefits and can give any tips while I am on it.

Answer by Skageet
Your candida cleanse will only be effective if you go on a candida diet at the same time. If you cut out sugar you will starve the candida, making it weak and susceptible to the anti fungal ingredients in the candida cleanse.

If you don’t starve the yeast, the cleanse won’t really have too much of an effect.
