What will a doctor do for you? How can a person control the night time sweats and other symptoms until treatment is available?
This would be the digestive type infection?
don’t take advice from people on here….for that type of yeast infection you should probably only take advice from your doctor. But on a better note…you’ll be fine. For now stay away from yeasty type foods…take a cold shower before bed…and seek treatment as soon as you can. Good luck goodlookin’

There are many myths about diet and health that have come to be taken for truths simply because they have been repeated so many times. If you were to ask virtually anyone over the age of 40 what is the major cause of heart disease they would likely say elevated cholesterol. The fact is that excess cholesterol has never caused a single case of heart disease in medical history. Statin drugs, used to lower cholesterol have many side effects. In fact, statin drugs are one of only a few groups of drugs that require routine blood tests because they are so dangerous. Statin drugs should be avoided and used only as a last resort. Elevated cholesterol can be managed by natural means. These can provide the same control by nourishing the liver and lowering elevated cholesterol. Another myth is that the artificial sweeteners such as aspartame, splenda, and saccharin do not cause weight gain. Not only do aspartame, splenda, and saccharin cause weight gain, but these sweeteners can have other side effects as well. Using aspartame, splenda or saccharin in moderation is fine, but excess can cause weight gain. Low fat diets are another myth as we are told that they are the best way to lose weight. Low fat diets are very dangerous as fat, the right fat, is essential. The dangers of low fat diets are many and include dry skin, loss of hair and liver problems. Free radicals have also been ignored as less than important but the fact is that free radical damage to cells of the body is the leading cause of many diseases. Antioxidants protect the body against free radical damage, which is why taking antioxidants is so important. In fact antioxidant nutrients should be a part of every supplement program. Everyone knows that calcium is a very important mineral, especially for women. Calcium can prevent Bone loss, also known as osteoporosis, but only if the right forms of calcium is taken. Calcium is one of the most difficult minerals for the body to absorb and in order for calcium to build bones and prevent bone loss and osteoporosis; key trace minerals must be present such as boron, manganese, copper, zinc and strontium. These trace minerals must be in the blood stream the same time as the calcium in order to carry calcium back to bones and prevent bone loss and osteoporosis. Candida or systemic human yeast is another condition that is most often overlooked by mainstream medicine. Candida can cause a host of low-grade side effects, which tend to worsen the longer the condition persists. Systemic candida is the worst form of this condition as it can affect almost any area of the body. Candida treatments such as the candida or yeast diet is almost worthless. People have followed the candida or yeast diet for months or even years, only to have the problem return once the diet is no longer followed. This is because the candida or yeast diet only addresses the symptoms and does nothing to eliminate the candida organism. Our program does eliminate systemic yeast or candida.

Have you or anyone you know tried Candex? Did it work for you? I have systemic candida (not vaginal yeast infection) and am thinking about trying it. Any personal experience shared would be appreciated.
I have tried it, and without the strict diet that the other two answers recommend it won’t work. While on the diet you might also take garlic supplements, as that is supposed to boost your immune system and a weakened immune system is one reason for systemic candida. Also, you can buy acidophilus pills, but be sure to buy the refrigerated kind at health food stores and get them home to your refrigerator quickly. Acidophilus dies when it isn’t cold, so the unrefrigerated kind aren’t going to help at all.

i mean prostatitis
Candida is usually a result of the use of lots of antibiotics and is usually seen as a yeast infection or "thrush mouth". Candida is also known as a "superinfection." I am not aware of any relation of prostate problems to candida-unless it is related to taking massive doses of antibiotics to get rid of a UTI- and UTIs are common in those indivdiuals that have prostatic hypertrophy.

PROBIOTICS!!!!!
this will help to increase the good bacteria in your body. Try acidophilus bifidus/regularis or L casei imunitas. The health food market offers capsules, drinks,powder etc. This can work wonders for your body.

I was on antiobiotics for over a year to treat acne. After completing this, I developed oral thrush due to probable overuse of the antibiotics. My doc put me on nystatin which worked for a while but i recently had a flareup and some intestinal issues, which makes us think I might have a systemic candida infection. He has once again proscribed nystatin and now diflucan. Have people had success with this?
Diflucan will work to help with symptoms if you have an overgrowth of candida in your digestive system but the only real way to try to get rid of it is through proper diet. Not eating foods that the yeast thrives on is the most important thing to do to restore the balance. Get yourself a supplement like Candida Cleanse at your local health food store.

How much should I use, where can I find one that I could use internally? Has anyone had success eliminating Candida using this method? Has anyone tried using Ozone therapy in treatment of systemic candida?
I’ve already done candida protocols in the past. I fully understand the diet and supplements and even some advanced therapy. I just need some more insight into the Hydrogen Peroxide and Ozone treatments if anyone can help? Thanks.
(This is a modification of something I wrote a few months ago)
I read alternative therapy books a lot, and from them I’ve learned a few things:
1) Candida is a nasty conditions that causes a lot of problems.
2) Most doctors don’t awknowledge that it exists (and say it’s in your head etc), or they use completely incorrect ways to treat it (ie. antibiotics).
3) It’s really difficult to treat, even with alternative approaches like naturopathy which normally work when conventional therapy fails.
One of my friends came up to me and told me that she had candida, and explained how it was messing her up and that the doctors she’d seen hadn’t really done s**t (or prescribed anything that work). I asked her if she’d tried fixing her diet and not eating sugar. She said she had somewhat, and it helped a little, but it didn’t really make a difference. She also had eaten probiotics, which helped a bit.
I’d recently finished reading a book on oxygen therapies which said candida is exteremely difficult to cure, regardless of what you do, but hydrogen peroxide seemed to actually do the trick very quickly.
They advocated intravenous injection (which is a pain to do), but I thought drinking it might work as well since candida hangs out in the gut. I had some food grade lying around and I’d used it for other stuff, so I figured I had nothing to lose by trying it. Neither of us thought it would work.
(Insert tangent)
Generally, intravenous injections of peroxide are considered to be much more effective and better than drinking peroxide, but at the same time they are more invasive and not as easy to do (I always have a bias towards doing simpler things when I practice medicine on my own), hence we avoided it. In your situation, it might be worth looking in that option. In the literature I read, all the people who had dramatic reversals of chronic incurable candida used intravenous peroxide.
(end tangent)
I checked back with autumn in a few days, and she said that she didnt think it would work, but she started noticing changes after about 3 days, and within 10 most of her symptoms had gone away (in 2 weeks she said she felt like she as 95% of where she had been before, and "wow I can’t believe how much candida messed me up").
At some point, she lost the peroxide I gave her, and then went for about a week without it, at which point she noticed she got a lot worse (to about 50% of where she had been before she started, and said "I hope I don’t have to use this stuff for the rest of my life."). We talked about it, and I theorized that the peroxide would probably need longer to completely kill the candida, but it might also be necessary to inject it to get some of the candida hangingou out in the bloodstream outside of the gut (in all the case studies I’d seen where peroxide worked, it was done intravenously, which we did not yet want to do).
A bit later, while still not having peroxide, she came across a drink called kefir (another strong probiotic one), and started using it. She said that it got her to the last push of 99.9%, and that she planned to use that from now on, and has been fine ever since.
Total sucesses with candida are very rare (a lot of these herbal things people suggest might work on one person, but never have consistent success since the condition is hard to treat), but I thought I’d share that example since I’m certain it happened (first hand experience), and I’d advise trying something similar.
Candida normally occurs when you have too many things in your guy that feed the fungus (ie sugar), or your stomach bacteria are supressed and can’t contain the fungus. The latter commonly happens when people are overperscribed antiobiotics (which happens a lot since doctors use antiobiotics zealously). Ie, it’s very common for people to get a candida infection immediately after being treated for pneumonia.
In our approach to treating it, we first killed off most of the candida with peroxide. Then once it was mostly gone, we put a lot of friendly bacteria in to put the balance in the gut back to where it should be. I don’t think doing the latter will work if the Candida population is there in full force to begin with.
As far as hydrogen peroxide goes, the stuff is harmless good for you if a few safety measures are followed:
1) It has to be in a very low concentration (if you drink 30% you will most likely die and it burns skin if you touch it, whereas .05% helps your health a lot).
2) It can’t have toxic additives in it (most peroxide sold does)
3) It needs to be drank away from meals (when you eat the stomach acids and proteins in gut can turn it into OH-, which is bad for you).
The procedure she followed was very simple.
1) Get a little bit of food grade 35% hydrogen peroxide* from me (you can buy it online), and an eyedropper.
*It should be stored in the freezer if not used.
2) Put 1 drop of 35% in a glass of water and drink it on the first day as far away from meals as possible.
2) 2 drops the next day
3) Keep on increasing* until it feels like you’ve done as much as feels comfortable (10 is the absolute max, she settled at 7).
Some people increase at a slower rate, such as 1 drop for a week, then 2 for the next instead of 1 per day.
4) once it feels peroxide has cleaned you out, switch to kefir (you cannot use both at the same time, since peroxide will kill the recently added probiotics)
I’m not an expert on probiotics, but I do know their quality greatly varies from source to source, so you need to make sure you get a good brand. All I can say is that Kefir seems to work well. If you don’t want to deal with this, you can also just keep on using peroxide, or consult a doctor that works with oxygen therapies (and say can give you intravenous injections).
Sometimes when you use peroxide, it will detoxify your system, and cause a lot of crap that was stored in your to come out quickly. This can be unpleasant for a few days (toxic flush syndrome), but once it passes you feel a lot better than you did before.
Everything I said can also be done with ozone, and ozone colonics for instance work really well (as does drinking ozonated water). However, I do not have personal experience with either and both are more expensive than peroxide and more difficult to get access to. Oxygen is really good for getting the body to purge and flush stuff out, and if you follow a peroxide regimen it will most likely get a lot out of your system.
Anyhow, I hope this helps! Candida is very difficult to cure and has a profound effect on people’s lives, but hopefully if you follow this you’ll be able to get better. One of the things which is not appreciated about the condition is that the disease spreads to the bloodstream from the gut (creating things like chronic fatigue), and then enters the brain and starts affecting your mood (ie. making you more depressed and emotional). Autumn said this was the biggest thing she noticed with Candida before and after being cured.
Considering how much it helped my friend, I figure it’s my duty to pass the knowledge on.
*and peroxide is fine to drink if you do it intelligently
