Here you can get stuff straight from the pharmacist without seeing a doctor( for candida.)

My other suggestion is natural yoghurt.

So sorry to hear about your troubles, hope you are better soon!

ive been eating yogurt and kefir, i think i may be experiencing a die off of the candida! i have a massive headache, am achy and more mucus production than usual, i also cut gluten and sugar today, but am allowing some from fruit - i bought the oil of oregano but it was like $27, if i do this for about 2 weeks, im pretty sure it'll be good but i don't know if i'll remember to take everything i need to on time!

I have remembered that when I was having repeated yeast infections my doctor told me to avoid anything with yeast in it for three months.

It was hard (since yeast is used in many things like white wine!!) but it worked, and I have been free from this problem for many many years.

Rebif and Copaxone are the first generation of MS drugs. Have you considered taking one of the newer and more effective second generation of MS drugs?

Remove all grains/ breads and anything with yeast from diet. Make sure food has alkalyzing effect on body. Restrict sugar. It will not work overnight but it may prevent future reccurence. Good luck

Always eat yogurt (with active cultures), or take L-lysine (in vitamin isle) or acidophilus (again vitamin isle) when you take antibiotics to avoid yeast issues. This was a recommendation from a pharmacist years ago and it rings true. The L-lysine and acidophilus also work to keep cold sores away if you're prone to them. Best of luck.

it's definitely gotten a lot better! i think the best help was the apple cider vinegar and oil of oregano, both the most painful, but also the most effective. my skin has went from a bright cherry red rash to a light pink in a short amount of time, but I also cut out flour and most, but not all sugar.

i don't want to take the newer ms drugs until a safety profile has been very very well-developed, if I was 40, i might try it but I'm too young to mess with that kind of stuff because of the potential side effects. From what I've heard, the oral drugs are the same, or a little better than the older options; I'm not that impressed and neither is my neurologist, it's just another option and the old ones shouldn't be discounted. I don't mind needles at all, like even when I was little, I didn't cry for shots so injections aren't even a factor in deciding which therapy to choose since thankfully giving myself a shot just doesn't bother me, of course it's not fun but when is taking medicine ever fun lol

I hope it works out well for you! I used to be on Rebif, but I couldn't handle the horrible body aches with every shot. I found myself taking ibruprofen with every dose and had to keep up with it all day. My doctor suggested Gilenya, I haven't had a single problem with it yet. Been on that for 8 months now. I hope the natural stuff works well for you! I have a friend that uses a lot of oils instead of meds for stuff and it works well for her.

Hey there,
I know for sure that I have a systemic candida infection after much research. I'm not even going to bother running it by western-medicine doctors unless I feel I must, as I've read it's not very welcomed in their world.

I have read that systemic candida infections are often the underlying culprit that triggers MS, as well as lupus, autism, etc etc. the list goes on.

I suggest researching anti-candida and "leaky gut" diets. They make a lot of sense to me.

This summer I drank large amounts of raw apple cider vinegar and vomited so hard and for so long, I was reciting "Now I lay me down to sleep--" with my head on the toilet.

The naturopath realm call thus a healing crisis, which is scary to trust, but I do believe they're right.

Please research Leaky Gut as well as how Candida acts.

When there is a candida overgrowth, the yeast spores each develop a root, which penetrate the lining of your guts and allow food particles and spores into your blood stream. No wonder allergies develop! That nonsense is NOT supposed to be in your blood.. Brain, etc.

I only 1/3 trust the intention of the pharmaceutical society in the US -- I think it's fueled by greed and that energy doesn't heal people.

To hear them say "we don't understand why the body attacks the myelin sheath" sounds like a load of bull coming from a multi-billion (more probably) industry.

I have an idea. If our stressed out lifestyle, coffee, Advil, and crsp diet allows candida overgrowth and leaky gut, the spores latch themselves in wherever they can. Including the myelin sheath. If I was an immune system, I'd attack it too.

They just don't want us to treat it naturally, since you can't patent things like ACV and garlic. No money, no interest.

Do take your probiotics though!
And try kimchi -- it makes my insides feel alive again.

Much love, and feel better!

Oops, apologies for the typos, my fingers aren't working so well today =X

Oregano oil eight drops on tap water and drink it its the best. Once its under control take two drops daily.
