For those of you struggling with candida albicans

After many years of struggling with it myself, I decided to take action.. I decided to really eradicate this condition, it was beginning to affect me so much that I was having to stop doing certain things that I wanted to do.

After spending a lot of money on fast 'remedies' that weren't actually getting to the bottom of things, I signed up on this site www.candida-yeast-diet  and just took the plunge.. Since then I haven't had to deal with yeast infections, athletes foot or oral thrush.

Hallelujah!

Salad dressing recipe for candida


Using raw garlic on a daily basis will act as a natural antibiotic and will keep your intestines in good healthy order. Keep in mind that I live in the tropics, so you might want to cut your salt down in this. I suggest put a little in, and then create it to taste.

I enjoy this salad dressing almost every day it also keeps any other infections at bay too such as colds and flu.

Jo's salad dressing

3 or 4 large garlic cloves
3 tablespoons of soy or vegetable oil
a third of a teaspoon of hot pepper sauce
a third of a teaspoon of salt
one or two teaspoons of vinegar

Crush the garlic, add the other ingredients and stir around with a spoon.

It tastes delicious on a fresh garden salad or in my case, I use it on cucumber salad. Which is just cucumbers with the skin removed and sliced very thinly after removing the centre seed core. The cucumbers that I used aren't the same as the English one, they are Caribbean ones.. so I'm not sure how well that salad would work using English ones, but you could give it a go.

Let me know how you get on, it might be that you want to make adjustments to your salad and maybe leave out the hot pepper sauce and add honey and mustard or other seasonings.

Benefits of using grapefruit seed extract on Candida

Grapefruit seed extract is a natural antibiotic alike garlic and tea-tree oil. It can be used to combat candida, but as with any antibiotics it could also kill off some of the good bacteria. It is prudent to take probiotics or eat yoghurt during the time you are taking grapefruit seed extract for treatment of candida.

Directions:
To take grapefruit seed extract, follow the directions on the packaging. It is most powerful if it is taken 3 times a day. It can be taken after a meal if it's in capsule form. If taking the liquid, this needs to be diluted and it tastes bitter. Dilution could be achieved by mixing it with carrot juice, vegetable juice or even grapefruit juice.

Grapefruit seed extract can be applied to athlete's foot as a natural cure. For this, take 10 drops per 1/2 (half) ounce of water and apply with cotton wool.


Other Uses
I have a friend who uses it on his toothbrush each night to brush his teeth as it can help prevent periondotosis and caries.

It can help with allergies.

It has also been known to treat malaria and can be used as a nasal disinfectant.

Yogurt vs. Candida




Oh yes, something that candida doesn't like is yogurt or even yoghurt - depending where you live of course for the spelling. Yogurt is effective at creating more 'good bacteria' which could eventually outweigh the 'bad bacteria', but only in 'cultured' yogurt.

In the past, I have made my own, and then I know that it's fully of 'good stuff'. It's surprisingly easy to make.

How to make yogurt

One small pot of natural yogurt
1 pint of warm milk
A plastic sealable container

Add the yogurt to the warm milk and mix thoroughly. Cover the container and put it in a warm place. As I live in the tropics, I just leave mine in the kitchen on the side, but you could put it in the sun (if you live somewhere cooler) or you could put it in the airing cupboard or near a radiator.

The yogurt will multiply over the course of about 8-12 hours and you'll end up with fairly thick yogurt. I actually make mine with about 1.5 pints or more, and have quite a runny consistency. It tastes delicious with honey, which will not do your candida any harm whatsoever.

Yogurt is effective for oral thrush, yeast infections, and any candida related problems. Some ladies even put yogurt onto a tampon to clear their yeast infections, personally I have found that eating garlic is a lot more beneficial in times of need. Crush it and add it to water and drink. But it could be that you need a thorough cleanse of your body (if you are getting recurring yeast infections / thrush). For this I recommend candida info.

Cure Candida Albicans Naturally - the easy way

Candida albicans can be cured naturally. You just have to know how to do it.

There are some simple steps to take that will really make a difference... one of them is to drink filtered water. In tap or faucet water, there are many impurities that make a difference to our bodies. All of these impurities can cause an imbalance to our internal bacterias by themselves.

You can filter water in several ways.
1. You can purchase a filter that can be attached to your tap
2. you can decide to buy bottled water only (this could prove to be expensive)
3. you can purchase a water filter jug to filter the water for you.
4. you could catch natural spring water to drink (you would have to know where to go to get this, and it will only be available in some areas) - and even then you might want to filter it before drinking it

Any of these ways would provide you with filtered water. Drinking 6 glasses of this per day would go a long way to cure candida albicans naturally.

Cure Candida Fast - Do these now and it will improve your condition fast..


To cure candida fast, you will need to take action immediately. The condition is caused by several imbalances in the body, leading to the intestinal environment being too 'candida friendly'. There needs to be a balance so that there is good bacteria in healthy doses, the bad bacteria has taken over in the case of a candida overgrowth. This causes issues such as yeast infections, oral thrush, athletes foot and other fungal skin issues. Excema and asthma can also be related to this, as well as headaches, constipation and abdominal pain.


Candida has come about from the following causes
  • being run down in general

  • being stressed

  • not getting enough rest or sleep

  • not eating the right diet - which can include eating too much sugar, too much alcohol (in particular beer), too much bread and processed foods

  • caught from your partner

  • a low immune system


To tackle it head-on is the best course of action. Certain steps can be taken that will lower the amount of candida bacteria in your body immediately, but ideally it would be best to do a complete clean of your system. Read candida-yeast-diet.com for more information on a 5 step program to cure candida fast.

Easy steps to take now include:
  • crush a clove of garlic in water and drink

  • drink rosemary tea

  • stop eating sugar

  • eat fresh vegetables and fruits, uncooked when possible so that you all possible vitamins can be digested


If you can't wait that long, read cure candida fast for more information on how to cure candida fast.
