Crush a clove of garlic (a clove of garlic is just one piece of the garlic chunk you buy) and let it sit a few minutes. This is to generate allicidin, the ingredient that is the antifungal in garlic. Cut a one inch chunk of ginger root. Add them with a glass of water to the blender. Add stevia for sweetening. I add milk thistle and N-acetyl cystine for the liver. You can add vitamins, cod liver oil, hemp seed and whatever else you want.
Here is a concoction thaIt I make in my blender and have about once a week. The ginger root is good for the digestive tract and the garlic is good for the liver. You can customize it to your liking-thats the nice thing about blender recipes.

I learned the hard way its important to detox prior to and during antifungal treatment. After failing to make any progress using prescription antifungals, I moved to herbal antifungals. I was doing a four day rotation of three different herbal antifungals that was supposed to take nine weeks. The first two weeks were fine. Then I started feeling more and more wiped out and achey. By the fifth week, even one capsule of the herbal antifungal would make me feel worse, so I stopped treatment. I realized that I was having a die-off reaction, also known as herxheimer reaction.
At that point I figured out that my body was too toxic to handle anti-fungals. I was very gun-shy about trying more antifungals after being through the three rounds of prescription antifungals followed by the herbals. I still had all of the candida symptoms and was more exhausted than ever. At this point I knew that I had to improve my immune system and detoxify before going on with another antifungal treatment. |
