How to treat Candida Albicans / Candididiasis
Recommendations to treat Candida
Attend to 9 life choices for vibrant health
Follow the
NEWSTARTS
protocol. All aspects important, but to emphasize
just a couple - try and reduce stress and get enough sleep. Candida is only
present with a weakened immune system.
Diet
Keep your blood sugar low and on an even keel
This starves the Candida by taking away its food source:
-
Eat 6 small meals / day
-
Avoid processed foods
-
Minimize sugar and starches. Includes fruit
juices, dried /candied fruits, sodas, and since carbs break down into sugar, also
avoid refined carbohydrates and carbs with a high glycemic index (E.g.
potatoes). However, do not eat an excessively high protein diet and completely eliminate
carbohydrates:
• Protein metabolism produces alkaline
ammonia conducive to Candida growth
• Increases undigested proteins escaping
the GI tract through a leaky gut - making extra work for immune system
• The beneficial(Candida fighting),intestinal
flora need feeding
Proportions of food groups
in diet:
-
65% high fiber / low starch vegetables. Fresh
and steamed vegetables, such as broccoli, celery, radish, asparagus, onions /garlic
(very good anti-fungals), ginger root, cabbage.
-
20% high protein foods. E.g. fish, nuts and
seeds. Spray with a mix of 15-30 drops GSE in 2 cups water to kill aflatoxins.
-
10% complex carbohydrates. E.g. brown rice,
whole grain barley, beans, millet, amaranth, quinoa, and buckwheat.
-
5% fruit. Papaya, pineapple, grapefruit
and all types of berries.
Other acceptable foods
Sea vegetable, olive oil, citrus fruit, herbal teas and unsweetened
cranberry juice.
Ensure a goodly intake of nutrients to build the
immune system
-
A quality daily green drink. Supplies most needed
nutrients in bioavailable food form
-
Ensure a sufficiency of vitamins A, B, C, D and E
-
Ensure sufficiency of minerals magnesium ,
iron,
sulfur, zinc
selenium
Increase body's probiotic presence.
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria, which compete with Candida ,
produce antifungal enzymes that control Candida population, and aid re-colonization
of other beneficial bacteria;
How to increase body's probiotic presence
Curing vaginal and oral yeast infections.
Involves some simple remedies, but to prevent recurrence, you should apply
the general recommendations against candidiasis mentioned below.
Specific Remedies for Vaginal Yeast Infection
Curing mycelial form of Candida.
Experience has shown that the mycelial form of Candida is very difficult
to eliminate, especially if has broken through the intestinal wall into the blood
stream and on into other body organs. Anti-fungal "tools"are available
to help kill Candida , but to prevent its return requires:
1. Restoring
your immune system to its full potential
2. Restoring
a healthy balance of probiotics in your body. To
keep control of pathogenic bacteria and fungi. The ideal ratio is 85% probiotics
: 15% pathogenic organisms.
Also, be aware:
-
As yeasts die off you may feel ill. Cut back treatments
as necessary and then work back up to full dose;
-
You need to be patient. Mycelial
Candida is very difficult to eliminate
Anti-fungal "tools" to kill Candida
yeast
Natural antifungals
Fungi living within the mucous membranes of the
mouth may be eliminated by daily, oral swishing with an anti-fungal solution.
MMS, Lugol's iodine, wild oregano oil, grapefruit seed
extract, tea tree oil or other anti-fungal, for several minutes just before bed.
Lugol's Solution
-
Dose. 8 drops Lugol's solution /day (contains
50mg of iodine/iodide)
Iodine -The Universal Medicine
Virgin Coconut oil
-
Rich in lauric, acid, caprylic, and caproic fatty acids.
Short- to medium-chained fatty acids that work on breaking down
the outer wall of yeast cells.
-
Nigerian study successful in treating C. Albicans with virgin coconut
oils. University College Hospital, Nigeria.
-
Oral Dose: 1-3 Tbsp. coconut oil /day as a therapeutic
dose to kill excessive yeast; you will need to start low and build up dose.
Coconut Oil
Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE)
• GSE is one of the best non-toxic
remedies for Candida
• GSE can simultaneously detoxify the system
of other fungi, bacteria and parasites - that often go hand-in-hand with
Candida.
• Consume GSE between meals
Grapefruit Seed
Extract
Powerful antifungal foods.
E.g. garlic, cinnamon
Grape seed extract.
Although it is antifungal when used alone, when combined with amphotericin
B (the drug often used for treating fungal infections, but with severe side-effects
), it has produced a significant growth retardation of Candida with a lower dose of this drug, according to a 2007 "Phytomedicine" study. Dose
must be high enough to be effective:
• Typical dose of grape seed extract. 75
-300 mg daily
"The Essential Herb-Drug-Vitamin Interaction Guide," by George
T. Grossberg and Barry Fox.
• Grape seed supplementation for up to 12 weeks
is considered safe at recommended dosage on package
University of Maryland Medical Center.
• Side effects - can include sore
throat, headache. Higher risk for bruising or bleeding if combined with blood-thinning
drugs E.g. warfarin, heparin
Wild Oregano Oil
Olive Leaf Extract
Tea tree oil.
Can be used EXTERNALLY. E.g. in the mouth or vagina
Lufenuron - Non-toxic, OTC veterinarian anti-fungal
to kill Candida
Kills Candida as effectively as Diflucan
(oral "azole"antifungal). Can cure vaginal yeast, oral Candida ,
Candida rashes and intestinal Candidiasis. Serious cases may need multiple
treatments.
Unlike Diflucan, it does not burden liver or kidneys.
Excreted in feces
Lufenuron is "loaded" into fatty tissue
for 5 days, such that its slow release maintains tissue concentration sufficient
to kill Candida. By making holes in its cell
walls. About ½of Candida 's cell wall is composed of extremely hard
chitin, the rest Ergosterol. Crabs, beetles, worms and fungi (including mushrooms),
just to name a few species, have hard chitin coats that help protect them from pressure
damage, but humans do not naturally have a use for chitin. Lufenuron destroys the
chitin, which kills the Candida by allowing the fungus to "bleed out"through
holes in its cell walls.
Where to buy and cost?
Lufenuron is sold at www.owndoc.com
site -currently sold at wholesale prices of $27 for a 3 week
course. You will also find treatment details and results at this site, hosted by
nutritionist Sarah Vaughter and her husband, John, who holds a Phd in Chemistry
and who cleared up his own persistent and serious Candida infection :

Oral supplements to absorb Candida -associated
toxins
Effective ADJUNCT supplements to treatment of
Candida infection. In the intestines,
these supplements counteract the unpleasant "die-off" Herxheimer
reaction by adsorbing (chemically absorbing) toxins produced by
Candida and dying Candida (that would otherwise be absorbed by the blood
and carried throughout the body) and dead Candida. Enables people to continue
treatment rather than give up
• Activated charcoal.
Commonly
found in air and water filters; suggested dose is 20g up to 35 g for severe cases
/day in divided doses on an empty stomach until Candida is controlled
Activated charcoal
• Liquid Bentonite.
A liquid clay
Medicinal
Clays - Adsorbers
NOTE: Do NOT take required medications
within 2 hours of taking Activated Charcoal.
Dietary mushrooms not a problem for Candida
Contrary to popular advice, mushrooms are NOT a
problem food for Candida , and some species actually fight it.
Such advice does not hold up against scientific scrutiny.
Some wild mushrooms picked in Turkey were found to have strong anti-Candida
activity . Fungi expert and mycologist
for more than 30 years, Paul Stamet, author of
MycoMedicinals , says that mmany fungi fight Candida . Mushroom
catalogs with a "mycomedicinals"appendix list anti-Candida mushrooms
(all, except Schizophyllum, also boost the immune system):
• Ganoderma lucidum
(Reishi/Ling Chi)
• Grifola frondosa
(Maitake/Hen of the Woods)
• Lentinula edodes
(Shiitake)
• Trametes versicolor
(Yun Zhi/Turkey Tail)
• Schizophyllum commune
(Suehirotake/Split-Gill)
