Good info. Many don’t realize the “healing crisis” that occurs when detoxing and cleansing from Candida overgrowth, or even an overall cleanse that can be intense. This can also occur when eliminating simple carbs and feeling miserable including lack of a good sleep. A healing crisis can last for days, weeks, or months contingent on present health condition. This sends many back to their original diet thinking that this healthy change is not for them. It takes quite a while to get your body in a bad state of health so sometimes it takes a while to get it back to a good state of health or “homeostasis“.
This is why it is important to do so in a sustainable matter. Because if you're not careful, people will hear the message you are saying here and end up ignoring actual signals that something is harming them. What people should do first is find a stable gut situation, miserable as it may be, and then start supporting their body's ability to handle stress. Take B vitamins. Try to do some basic exercise. Just as simple as going on a walk. Stuff like that. Because the thing they're about to embark on is very difficult. Then go about it SLOWLY. And listen to your body and try to learn what it feels like if you're going too fast. This is actually one reason why probiotics is often so helpful for people. Because it's a very slow gradual change that enables you to fight back over time. I'm not saying go so slowly that you can't tell a difference. I'm saying go slowly so that you can pay attention to and listen. So your body can learn what pain is good and what pain is bad. Your sort of intellectual side is really really going to want to narrate and categorize everything, but it needs to learn to go slow and listen to the rest of the system. Do not go hurting yourself or making yourself miserable pointlessly because you think it's healing. I learned this the hard way so many times.
@@chettlar212 its pretty good you trying to help but you got no healing exprerience ,, its normal to find it hard since real healers are rare and people dont know they exist or existed or great NDs
@@Manota7adyat did you see the data that said that you brush your teeth after you eat and you will have a significant reduction? Learned that I’m gonna bring a really good mouthwash to work and at least try to do that if I can’t brush my teeth and also change your toothbrush out to new one..
cabbage salad everyday❤ we need to help heal the stomach with probiotics, green food, the body with vitamins and rest without stress, we need to bring the body back into balance
Don’t think of it as healing the gut. It’s more accurate to say correcting improper Gut Ph. Most people who suffer from candida have stomach acid that is too alkaline.
@@BlackPawK9yup it starts w stomach remedies like histamine receptor blockers or proton pump inhibitors and the acid just becomes way too low. I know. This is what happened to me. I was never able to land on the right diet even with food diaries and elimination diets I commented elsewhere in this video but I basically combined two kidney/thyroid healthy diets and was able to go off all stomach remedies and that and the diets improved my stomach pH and the diets and the improved pH started to heal everything else
1. diet and lifestyle - do not stress about food. Exercise is always recommended. 2. probiotics 3. reset and rest with the elemental diet 4. herbal anti microbial or prescriptions
I have gut disbiosis from gastroparesis (slow motility) and now have my first vaginal yeast infection. But I’m pretty sure it’s in my gut so if I take an antifungal prescription will it clear the vaginal fungus too ir just the gut? I would think it would help all of it but I have started Monostat for it today just in case. AND of course changing my diet !
Low carb helped me very good, no more blood pressure medication, no more almost daily diarrhea. sleep fantastic. No more fog in my head. Lost 16 kilos have great energy. Veel beter than I ever have.
Esophageal fungal infection. Bypassed my mouth and throat . Diagnosed by endoscopy when I became unable to swallow and was experiencing center chest pain. Total of 8wks of intensive fungal treatment during which time I was put on an extremely limited diet and lost 25lbs. Dehydration became a significant problem. A slender 76yo woman to begin, I seriously thought I was going to die. Afterwards, on a regular diet, I had 2mos of liquid diarrhea. It's now been 8mos since it started and have only been able to gain back 6lbs. Gastroenterologist said it is more frequent in people who use inhalers and nasal sprays which I was using as prescribed. Never again. I'll cough, sneeze and blow my 24/7 runny nose. That was some serious stuff!!! Now eat a cup of live culture greek yogur every morning.
well thats me subscribed!..im british and in Britain the treatment for candida is cream pessary and anti fungal meds that are horrible. ive had candida all my life so ive had a whole range of symptoms for most of my life, im sure people thought i was a hypochondriac...now im gonna do what this DR says ,,i found his explanation easy to understand and very informative. thankyou Dr.
This is just the video I needed to see. I've been suffering with candida for a long time now. For most of the years I was in a deep brain fog and didn't know what was going on. So I simply ignored it and just continued eating badly, making matters worse. When my acid reflux got really bad, that's kind of when I took notice. Then eventually I started eliminating suspecting bad foods. And going for diet to diet, until I even landed at carnivore. I recently stopped carnivore and starting adding leafy greens back. After I realized I had possibly diverticulitis as well. I had to come to the realization, that dropping so many foods didn't help me eliminate candida. So I'm in the phase right now, where ever few days I'm resting a certain food. Because I started developing nutrient deficiencies where even my teeth started wearing down. So I figured I have to just find a balance with some of these carbs and also work on making sure in getting rid of waste in the body. Because it's got to a point, where not only was I constipated daily. But I wasn't even really ever sweating or getting rid of these toxins. Also working on my stress and anxiety as well. Because I still get that gut pain when I'm stressed. And that's one of the reasons for my overall gut problems.
The quickest way to rid your body of Candida is by drinking kefir whey everyday with a vitamin D tablet. Within one week you are clear. I know from personal experience and have kept healthy ever since. My family (including children) and friends are on the daily regime of whey. It stops uti’s , greatly benefits kidney health and kicks Candida into touch. Look up GcMAF for all the other benefits no one tells you about. Hippocrates and Galen advocated ‘the whey cure’.
Appreciate your wisdom, I have been dealing with Candida for a long time, it's time to get well again! Thank You - Lars Fraser, Vancouver Island, Canada
The herbals I take based on my research are Peppermint, high quality Turmeric (never together!), Black Walnut Wormwood Clove tincture, Pumpkin seed oil, Probiotics (obv. not an herbal) and Chlorophyll (liquid gel caps only). I'm going to be researching the elemental diet. Thank you!
its not enough . you need to fix your adrenals and pituitary , stomach acid , constipation and biofilm by detox it out and breaking it down if its oral use probiotics oral to get rid of it , and you need to use binders for toxins and a good gi broom , and starve it while maintain bowel movements 3 per day
Thank you so much, many of us have irritable bowels and are at a loss for answers. You gave some good incites for which I am very grateful. I was losing my meals a half hour after eating them, then I became dehydrated. Went to the hospital, they could find nothing. I was given fluids which cured the dehydration . Sent home! Many Doctors are not aware of , nor know how to treat Candida, leaky gut etc.
I am glad I started listening to this info on candida. I’ve watched this and several vids on this subject. I started destroying my massive overgrowth and I feel so much better overall. The fungus nail I had is clearing up. It already is so much better. I am shocked. I’ve tried everything to get rid of fungus nail. Apparently it was candida the whole time. Not 100% gone but I only started diet and supplements 2.5 weeks ago. Nail is 90% clear. Shocking.
So I'm doing my own protocol for SIBO/candida. Not sure HOW long to do it though as what I'm doing contains pretty potent oils. And that's garlic oil pills/capsules, star anise oil, And oil of oregano. All have candida killing properties so I'm hoping all 3 together will do wonders and not work against each other possibly/or clash. Garlic and oregano oil will be earlier in the day around breakfest and star anise oil with water before bed. Starting tmw.
Herbals worked well on gut a One with probiotics, but Not my mouth. Mouth is better each day until I eat anything, but even low sugar fruit. Only heal for one day then bad again. Enjoy happy gut but painful mouth.
I've been told to chill wrt my daughters weight now that she is in remission. She is healthy in every other way and that is more important than all the weight she lost. The less I freak out about her weight normalising and taking my focus off what she eats, the sooner she will recover what's been lost. 😅 Very educational post again doc. We are so grateful for all the work and hrs you put into educating and entertaining us 🏅😄
@@DrRuscioDCdoc thanks for everything Do you think is necessary make test for SIBO or for another for example SIFO? If the answer is yes where I can do this? Thanks
@@DrRuscioDC You genuinely field the results of studies, and dont speak in idiot, as well as give the logic and process to your output of material. Yes, Subbed. Nice to see real sense in medical presentation. Shows you are not a textbook or pharma pusher. Thank YOU.
I had some IBS and starting taking a teaspoon of olive oil a day for about 30 days, off and on and I dont even have to do that any more, no more painful bowel movements! There are herbs and foods like Kombucha, soukrout, kimchee, miso soup, herbs like peppermint, rosemary, sage, basil, fennel, astralagus, garlic and ginger that are antiviral and antifungal. Sometimes I just take garlic and ginger (small pieces) by mouth, and alternate the the garlic with tumeric applied topically then washed off my knees (due to the yellowing stain), helps with any knee arthritis. Just consult your Doctor because some of these are blood thinners and may interact. I do love blueberries for my immune system!
This informative video was very interesting and not to feel guilty if there’s times when I may need to eat rice or potatoes as making candida worse very encouraging
I’ve had success with a carnivore diet for my chronic candida. Meat also digests early in the GI tract, so perhaps that helps? I was 80% healed and then removing liquid dairy got me to 100%. I recently started eating a lot of cheese and it came back!
@@kkpaine yes, it came back. If I eat anything with any type of sugar in it, especially liquid dairy, it comes back. I have an immune deficiency & my body doesn’t keep it in check.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video . Iv been to lots of doctors over skin issues that are geting worse candida is what was diagnosed but what they have tried doesnt seem to work for me
It’s interesting that you brought up tooth brushing. I’ve noticed that my candida rash on my chest is drastically better since I began tongue scraping with my tooth brushing routine. Total game changer. This just confirmed my thoughts.
I'm so glad you shared that! It's one thing to see it in the research but to get confirmation that it translates to a real world application and experience is awesome. I hope to get an oral health expert on in the future to discuss this link in more detail :)
Use coconut oil brusing teeth. A oral rinse machine. Hydrogen peroxide. Then floss. Chew on xyiltol. My gums are healing. Lots of candida in blood is from gums. Plaque. The gums het healthy with oils. Coconut oil works. Sesame oil. For inflammation clove oil. Turmeric in coconut oil brush swish w water after few weeks then do with Sal water in water tooth machine
A very sane approach.Thanks! I like your advice to not get stressed and scared of food. I can't tell you how many time I have been scared of food! Also I agree...listen to your body...it knows what you specifically need.
I'm not scared of food. I'm scared of the end of the week when I release more waste than I even eat in normal bowel movements then get nauseous bloated with major head fog. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm sick every week!
I have been suffering with these symptoms for years, I am so grateful you are posting these videos. Could you tell us what probiotic you would recommend. I have tried many. I just don't know which are the most reliable. Thank-you, you give me hope. Sincerely, Lori
I've had a tongue problem for several months. I've been thinking it was candiasis all along. Tried several things. Rt now in CandAid. Worried it's lasted a long time. White to black to white tongue. I need help affording these excellent formulas. Thank you so much for confirming that herbals are better. CandAid has garlic, among others.
I take an inhaler for my lungs that has steroids. I found I was getting a white tongue and my throat was feeling weird. In researching I came across info that says you must rinse/gargle several times after using an inhaler to prevent thrush.
@maggiebodine206- From what l found, the body needs cleansing. You need to reach out to a naturopath. A black tongue indicates severe cleansing is needed. 🙏🏼
I think going Carnivore and adding some antimicrobial plants like oregano/garlic can help, as well as using things to add more acid with Apple Cider Vineger, Coconut Oil and making sure to get enough electrolytes.
I had IBS with explosive diarrhea and getting everyday and irritated colon. I had stool tests. Since I have diabetes 2 and hypertension. Asked God if could come from some thing I was taking the thought came to me BP medication. So I decided to stop it for a time to see. That was 12/23/2023 as of today 2/29/24 I have only had twice and not explosive and colon not sore. BP135-70-68 . I am 81 ; eat Keto. Med. Lisinopril-HCTZ 10/12.5MG Tablets. Maybe this could help someone else. It ended that day. Keto for 5 years.
I had constant yeast infections until my gyno finally told me that the yeast lives on the underwear and to either microwave or boil them. I decided just to wear unscented pantry liners. No more yeast infections.
Every time u pee and they look gross or are wet..after kids u leak unfortunately , being healthy and having a sexual relationship helps a lot with leakage and certain exercises, doctors during birth give appezatomies and dont stitch women back up😂
Thank you so much for all of the information and obvious work you put into to this video to share with us. I wish that every doctor were as thorough and explain information as well as you have. Your patients are blessed to have you.😊
17:29 gets to the point Coconut oil, Ginger, and kimchi reduce candida. Avoid processed food. Question: is ginger tea as effective as whole ginger? Probiotics. So much talk about probiotics both pro and con. Wish we had definitive info.
I'm sorry you felt there was too much talk about probiotics. I try to present the research I find and allow people to make the decision for themselves. :)
This comment was rude to tell someone not only on their own channel but as a adult to get to the point and complain about the information given that this man doesn't have to do research on or share it with us is ungrateful and disrespectful some people want to know the information given you are not the only one watching this is for the world to get the information they need from it people don't realize the time not only filming editing and doing a lot of reading and research to bring correct information to the audience is if the information he is given isn't what your looking for then there are many other channels to watch or fast forward to the information you are looking for but to tell someone get to the point when you came to watch and learn from it is out of line I'm sadly disappointed how rude inconsiderate and intitled this world is no consideration how your comment could have affected his feelings luckily he seems to be a calm man some other video creator may not have responded as kind as he did just FYI. I appreciate any information I can get on these videos people don't have to make content for us to learn from if it's not what I'm looking for I move on. Thank you @DrRuscioDC
@akeleven You might look into, and seriously considering a diet that eliminates all wheat, sugar and processed foods completely. Eat 75% raw green leafy/cruciferous and definitely, do extended fasting. Work up to 36/72 hour back to back water fasts. Epigenetics is a thing, obviously. This protocol will help you prepare for the total collapse of the US economy and societal order the globalist oligarchs controlling our current government (traitor Biden and his handlers) have in store for Americans. Hope you get some wellness back. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8294624/
I think a major culprit here is most people that were raised on conventional foods. Especially meat and dairy that are not organic. We are constantly ingesting some level of antibiotic from this. Also the water supply. Our water has god knows how many traces of chemicals not to mentions chlorine and chloramines. It is really no wonder we have such gut imbalances. Compound this with other lifestyle factors and you have major overgrowths.
Major culprit is Sugar in everything!!! Even foods that don't require it, they put it in Have to be very careful and read ingredients Now they're putting GMOs in everything!😡
My doctor had me switch my alkaline vegan lifestyle to keto eating. I did the candida medicine already. I'm also using microdefense supplement from the health store. I also drink a non gmo organic detox tea everyday.
Dr you are freaking awesome!!! I have been subscribed to your channel for a while now. This is the BEST video on healing your body from Candida overgrowth I’ve ever seen! ❤️ I appreciate that you made it a point to specify you don’t need a low carb diet to re-balance the gut microbiome. I have struggled with Candida overgrowth for probably close to two decades! I have been working with a biological dentist for the past 6 months because my imbalance all stemmed from my oral health. And I’m not talking about brushing and flossing. If you were to talk to my old dentist he would say my oral health was perfect. I can’t say exactly what because this comment will just get taken down… 😒 I can say since having an oral procedure most of my symptoms have significantly improved. However, I know that the lingering effects are Candida. I make my own purple fermented sauerkraut and raw milk Kefir. I am also taking a soil based probiotic at the moment which I am almost out of and then I am starting the Saccharomyces Boulardii probiotic, 2 capsules a day. I am hoping with the fermented and cultured foods plus the added probiotic supplement I can really dig into this! I also do not eat processed foods. Whole and organic. I had been eating raw local honey in my raw milk yogurt which I will be cutting out I guess. I was also having maple syrup and raw cream in my coffee. I had cut coffee out for many months and just started drinking it again for the last couple weeks. I’ll be cutting that back out completely also. I want to make sure some raw dairy is ok because I’ve also seen where some say to cut out dairy completely too… 😑 Is the raw milk kefir ok to still drink? I blend strawberry, raspberry and blueberries in it, that’s it. I also have Oregano oil that I have used a couple times in the past because I saw Dr. Axe talk about it. I used it 3X a day for 14 days. 3 drops mixed in a tsp of coconut oil, morning noon and night. This may be TMI but I noticed what’s called, rope worms come out in my stool. I know they aren’t actually worms but wow! I can only attribute that to the use of the Oregano oil. I have also tried the 1 raw garlic clove a day. Chopped it up and let it sit for 10 min to let the alliinase release and then also took with coconut oil. I had to drink about a cup of water as soon as swallowing as it felt like it burned. The water made it to where it didn’t do that. With all of this said, I wasn’t really doing everything in combination and/or for a long enough period of time. I also make my own sourdough bread so that’s a no go. I will be keeping that out of my diet as well. How long would you say to do this regimen before trying to add different foods back in? 3-6 months? A year? I also make my own meat stock and drink that to help heal my gut. I couldn’t do bone broth before as it was too high in histamine and I would have reactions. My food intolerances are a lot better now tho since this oral procedure. A couple years ago I had tried the GAPS diet to heal my gut but that was before I knew about the oral connection, and it was SO low carb that I lost so much weight,(which I couldn’t afford to lose) that I felt like I was dying on that diet! 😒😣 I do however continue with the meat stock as it makes me feel really good. Sorry so long. I just wanted to share my story which I’m just scratching the surface. I’ve been struggling with debilitating symptoms since I got C in April 2021, 3 friggin years! Like I said, I am much better now but still need to tackle the Candida issue. Thank you so very much for all your valid information and I will sleep better at night knowing I don’t have to starve myself to re-balance my gut and Candida!! I sleep SO much better having some carbs! God bless you!! ❤🙌🏻
Thank you for breaking this down. Have you heard of Candidase supplements? If so, what do you think of it? (It's an enzyme blend of cellulase and protease. They claim cellulase breaks down yeast cell wall while protease digests the interior proteins).
The inconsistencies in testing that you mention is true with many functional tests. You would not use this as a stand alone Diagnostic tool but to put the big picture together with Symptomology and other lab testing.
Add plain kefir with or without berries. It really makes a huge difference! It's best to purchase kefir grains and use raw milk or milk that isn't ultra-pasteurized to make your own. It's good with ginger. Kefir can be used to treat vaginal yeast infections as a douche or by soaking a tampon as well.
I wish I’d NEVER EVER listened to my doctors about acne. All they did was put me on antibiotics and had NO conversation about taking prebiotics/probiotics. Over time I learned about the gut biome and healing everything without standard doctors and dermatologists. Definitely working through candida and bacterial overgrowth due to a lack of healthy biome critters because of the antibiotics. Good luck everyone!
Ive had chronic sinus issues for years. I keep reading it could be candida related. :( This was a very informative video and best one I have seen in a long time. Most I have seen say cut out ALL carbs but that is near impossible! I'm limiting to cutting out refined carbs. This morning I had porridge (oatmeal) steel cut, with blueberries and cinnamon. Splash of almond milk.
I incurred a 50k injury in 2007. None, zero, zilch M.D.s helped me. Only chiropractors. Another Deputy shared with me asyra computer system, created by a mayo clinic Dr & an electrical engineer. The Dr chose the 60,000 pathogens, fungus, bacteria, environmental toxins such as radiation, exhaust, smoke pollution, more. Each has it’s own frequency. So, eliminates human guessing feature, & allows 20 plus page report on many frequencies. Also checks for what will correct range to normal, diet, & emotional imbalances. That is why I switched to a superior system.
Brush your tongue with fine sea salt and the white tongue will disappear right away. You can brush your teeth with salt too like people did in the old days. It takes about a week to get use to it. Good luck and never stop looking for answers.
Ive had issues with candida every since i had treatment for breast cancer years ago. I simply cant get rid of it. Ive fasted, added prebiotics, herbs, yogurt , candida diet and cleanse and taken pills for yeast infections from the doctor. At one point i had a 3 month long yeast infection after chemo and the doctor said i would just have to deal with chronic yeast and there was nothing they could do. I had to get rid of the infection on my own and did all kinds of things people would consider weird. Even now my tongue is white and i get infections easily. I just want to be well
This was so helpful. Thank you so much. I keep having recurring yeast infections on my skin (beneath breasts, etc) and I just realized it flares when I go off my low carb diet. I struggle with staying on it but I never saw the connection before this past week. I'm wondering though, on the avoid list of foods, it said starchy veggies and included potatoes. But then under encouraged foods, potatoes were there. What am I missing? I would love to be able to eat some healthy starches again. What is the elemental diet? That sounds like a nice reboot. I just got a bottle of pro and prebiotics. I'm ready to lick this thing. I bet I'll feel better than I've felt in years once I'm back in a healthy balance. Thanks again.
What exam can a doctor do to find out why a child 7 years old us constipated. They have her on miralax for two years. Why are doctors acting like they do not know what we are talking about. Can l go directly to the laboratory and find out myself by asking for some specific test. That is so sad not being able to know if there is Candida. Incredible wash her mouth more than 3 times a day. This is incredible. Great explanation.😊
I know how you feel. 😢. I believe it’s because The American Medical Association and medical schools are sponsored by drug companies. Most doctors simply don’t know any better, and let’s face it, some can be too arrogant to think for themselves.
I had the same problem constipated since I was born. I was born in the 60s, in the Midwest lots of meat potatoes corn and peas. That didn’t help. What I have found works for me the best is lots of veggies especially later in the day, broccoli Is the best. If your child doesn’t like broccoli you can mix it with some carrots and cauliflower and purée it. I had all the candida symptoms as a kid and I was a candy addict. For me Giving up gluten, dairy, Sugar and especially chocolate even no sugar dark chocolate is very helpful. Chocolate is my enemy unfortunately. Magnesium for me is more effective than MiraLAX. Magnesium oxide is not absorbed well but helps a lot with constipation. Very effective. Good luck, No kid should have to suffer with constipation.
@lindapelle8738 my dr told me to take magnesium citrate for my constipation, I was taking carbonate, which is in the product Calm. Have you tried citrate? Did you find oxide to work better? It's very confusing. I also take a whole cap of miralax every day....I also eat tons of veg.
@@straightedgeveganbel2453Hi, mag citrate never helped me, I could take many teaspoons of it whether it is calm or plain citrate, no benefit. I find magnesium oxide to be much more effective. I also take a very gentle herbal combination that causes no side effects which helps with my peristalsis, developed by a holistic physician. I stopped taking it years ago but then I developed sibo and had to go back on it. I also take H2go occasionally, also extremely effective. It’s a form of magnesium that is not absorbed but it’s different than most magnesium’s. And of course I stay very hydrated. Finding the foods that make your constipation worse is helpful. In my case beef is a biggie, Gluten, dairy and chocolate. I don’t eat grains because I have hypoglycemia and they just make me tired. I eat a lot of eggs seafood veggies poultry. If you’re going to take magnesium oxide its good to also take an absorbable magnesium as well it so you know you’re getting enough magnesium. Hope that helps.
Something seems weird with that study, no dairy, but yogurt is on the side "to eat". I know there are coconut milk yogurts. I would say the pseudograins would be better than them just listing "Whole Grains" would love to know who financed that study. Whole grains sprayed heavily with pesticides has to have an impact on our biome bugs too I would think? Just removing Sugar, Dairy and foods from a box (gf or not) has me about 15 pounds lighter. And this morning I woke up with no nasty cavity forming film on my teeth. Potatos and (perhaps occasional sweet potato too) I would want those grown without pesticides.
The diet is huge. I was doing well then lost my job, so a lot of stress. I then started ravaging on things like Cheddar cheese and symptoms developed again.
If it looks like a duck, cracks like a duck, it's a duck.... I had blood tests done by my integrative medicine doctor. She put me on various things to help the candida overgrowth. I have to disagree with a lot of what you're saying doctor. It's been life-changing for me. The first initial treatment of the pills that I was given didn't do a good enough job, but it was still life-changing in the sense that I could finally start eating things that usually gave me gout-like symptoms. Sleeping better, etc. A good regimen of a tablespoon of diatomaceous earth food grade, along with zeolite to take out toxins, four drops of oil of oregano everyday. Two capsules of clothes, two capsules of caprylic acid, and I have knocked this thing out of the park! Best results so far.
Great info! I’m so glad I found your channel. Weird question, where did you get your T-shirt? 😂 I have been searching for my husband and cannot find good t shirts.
Dr. Michael. This was very informative. Thanks so much for all the information on this subject and the importance of a good diet for sleep and wellness. This channel is awesome!! 🤗
Never had visible symptoms but out of wack/ then all of a sudden skin is covered with itchy pimples got stung by a bee then my whole body got sick my face and head ears nose covered in folliculitus it finally subsided after 4 months it still on head and back swooshing in my ears…. It was all thrush and candida. Used Ketocanozal 2% on skin it really was a game changer also consumed oregano oil, garlic, probiotics switched to stevia, coconut oil mixed with cinnamon, organic cranberry no sugar added juice w/ water. Increased my activity wish me luck I’m 65 & just retired. Basil tea rosemary tea helped because I miss coffee so much / I will also take fluconazol because seems I ‘ve got it bad.
I drink coffee using unsweetened almond milk and sweeten it with Stevia or Xylotil. I'm 67 and my female parts are so itchy. Also I suffer from Diabetes 2.
Yeee, I am your fan. From Siberia. And bought yesterday your book. In two versions - on Kindle and on Audible. Don't read it yet. But will. So, many thanks!
For me, I think my candida was heavy metals & toxins due to closed detox pathways. Candida can form as a protective mechanism when we have too many heavy metals. It's there for a purpose. I didn't know this & I was desperate to overcome the candida and went strict keto almost carnivore. 0 sugar, 0 carbs, 0 fruits. (also no processed food) only for my issues to get worse. As soon as I started eating SUGAR, fruits, fiber and vegetables the issue went away....everything online says "cut out sugar!!!" bad advise...My advise is make sure you're detoxing & your liver is working well. Fiber helps detox.
I have had gut issues for many years . Mostly bloating and slow motility. Currently I am having more pain in the gallbladder area and slightly below . I’m not over weight yet diabetes runs in my family. I have not checked my sugar in many years . I’m 61 yrs old and try to eat pretty clean . Meat included. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
@@stevem9766 Make sure your TSH is under 2. Thyroid helps us detox. Without enough thyroid hormone the liver can't function properly and you can't detox. Not enough thyroid can also cause gallbladder problems. Be open to medication. If standard levothyroxine doesn't work add in T3 cynomel. Also look into Ray Peat. Don't follow him dogmatically, he's not 100% correct but he has a lot of great research and advise on thyroid support.
good job , in my practice , bloating is either constipation or sifo offen both since pituitary or adrenals are weak or they got mycoplasma and auto immune that cause endocrine problems
Regarding RX antifungals, I think you'll find this study interesting. A paper titled "Immunological Consequences of Intestinal Fungal Dysbiosis" (PMID 27237365) may shed some light on the dark side of RX antifungals. Basically, there appears to be collateral damage and a decrease in good/beneficial fungi (yes, that's a thing!)- much like RX antibiotics decrease populations of good bacteria. Great video as always, doc! :)
@user-ss9fl9pt7u I have been looking for info in the Internet . I’m afraid this will spread into the intestines , since I haven’t stop the Elemental Diet. It’s too expensive to leave it there. I’m on my 9 Day. Unfortunately , here in this channel, there is very little focus on commenting on the users negative and positive experiences in this regard
Histamin and gut health are related right? You are saying you can fight fungus with fungus .. so why do some say not to eat any fermented food like kimchi, ACV when you are delaying with Histamin intolerance?
Good info.
Many don’t realize the “healing crisis” that occurs when detoxing and cleansing from Candida overgrowth, or even an overall cleanse that can be intense.
This can also occur when eliminating simple carbs and feeling miserable including lack of a good sleep.
A healing crisis can last for days, weeks, or months contingent on present health condition.
This sends many back to their original diet thinking that this healthy change is not for them.
It takes quite a while to get your body in a bad state of health so sometimes it takes a while to get it back to a good state of health or “homeostasis“.
Yes. I am trying . Having gut issues for as much as 30 years . Has proven to be a difficult problem to resolve.
Thanks for this encouraging response 🙏
in my experience when i fix the microbiome almost all health issues , especialy immune related go back to normal ,
This is why it is important to do so in a sustainable matter. Because if you're not careful, people will hear the message you are saying here and end up ignoring actual signals that something is harming them. What people should do first is find a stable gut situation, miserable as it may be, and then start supporting their body's ability to handle stress. Take B vitamins. Try to do some basic exercise. Just as simple as going on a walk. Stuff like that. Because the thing they're about to embark on is very difficult. Then go about it SLOWLY. And listen to your body and try to learn what it feels like if you're going too fast. This is actually one reason why probiotics is often so helpful for people. Because it's a very slow gradual change that enables you to fight back over time. I'm not saying go so slowly that you can't tell a difference. I'm saying go slowly so that you can pay attention to and listen. So your body can learn what pain is good and what pain is bad. Your sort of intellectual side is really really going to want to narrate and categorize everything, but it needs to learn to go slow and listen to the rest of the system. Do not go hurting yourself or making yourself miserable pointlessly because you think it's healing. I learned this the hard way so many times.
@@chettlar212 its pretty good you trying to help but you got no healing exprerience ,, its normal to find it hard since real healers are rare and people dont know they exist or existed or great NDs
My partner had mouth candida, I made a mouth wash for him. Coconut oil, baking soda & peppermint. It cleared it in two washes!
Can you please tell him how you did it?
Did you mix the ingredients together? "Should it be swallowed or just used as a mouthwash?"
@@Manota7adyatmouth wash don’t usually eat baking soda.
@@Timetraveler1111MN thank you
@@Manota7adyat did you see the data that said that you brush your teeth after you eat and you will have a significant reduction? Learned that I’m gonna bring a really good mouthwash to work and at least try to do that if I can’t brush my teeth and also change your toothbrush out to new one..
@@Timetraveler1111MN Yes, I have read this, thank you. Is there anything that can be eaten to eliminate Candida in the digestive system?
cabbage salad everyday❤
we need to help heal the stomach with probiotics, green food, the body with vitamins and rest without stress, we need to bring the body back into balance
Don’t think of it as healing the gut. It’s more accurate to say correcting improper Gut Ph. Most people who suffer from candida have stomach acid that is too alkaline.
@@BlackPawK9 how to balance
@@mohammedsaffyan1183 I’m good thanks moohammeed
@@BlackPawK9yup it starts w stomach remedies like histamine receptor blockers or proton pump inhibitors and the acid just becomes way too low. I know. This is what happened to me.
I was never able to land on the right diet even with food diaries and elimination diets
I commented elsewhere in this video but I basically combined two kidney/thyroid healthy diets and was able to go off all stomach remedies and that and the diets improved my stomach pH and the diets and the improved pH started to heal everything else
Do you take any probiotics in pill form or any form?
1. diet and lifestyle - do not stress about food. Exercise is always recommended.
2. probiotics
3. reset and rest with the elemental diet
4. herbal anti microbial or prescriptions

These herbal anti microbial are the biggest scam.
One of the best videos on candida I have seen, well put together, interesting and very informative.
I appreciate it!
I have gut disbiosis from gastroparesis (slow motility) and now have my first vaginal yeast infection. But I’m pretty sure it’s in my gut so if I take an antifungal prescription will it clear the vaginal fungus too ir just the gut? I would think it would help all of it but I have started Monostat for it today just in case. AND of course changing my diet !
Low carb helped me very good, no more blood pressure medication, no more almost daily diarrhea. sleep fantastic. No more fog in my head. Lost 16 kilos have great energy. Veel beter than I ever have.

Esophageal fungal infection. Bypassed my mouth and throat . Diagnosed by endoscopy when I became unable to swallow and was experiencing center chest pain. Total of 8wks of intensive fungal treatment during which time I was put on an extremely limited diet and lost 25lbs. Dehydration became a significant problem. A slender 76yo woman to begin, I seriously thought I was going to die. Afterwards, on a regular diet, I had 2mos of liquid diarrhea. It's now been 8mos since it started and have only been able to gain back 6lbs. Gastroenterologist said it is more frequent in people who use inhalers and nasal sprays which I was using as prescribed. Never again. I'll cough, sneeze and blow my 24/7 runny nose. That was some serious stuff!!! Now eat a cup of live culture greek yogur every morning.
You have WORMS not Candida
well thats me subscribed!..im british and in Britain the treatment for candida is cream pessary and anti fungal meds that are horrible. ive had candida all my life so ive had a whole range of symptoms for most of my life, im sure people thought i was a hypochondriac...now im gonna do what this DR says ,,i found his explanation easy to understand and very informative. thankyou Dr.
FELLA, *MR OBALAR* ON UA-cam CURED ME TOTALLY❤❤❤
I'm in England to my Dr's have been no help.
This is just the video I needed to see. I've been suffering with candida for a long time now. For most of the years I was in a deep brain fog and didn't know what was going on. So I simply ignored it and just continued eating badly, making matters worse.
When my acid reflux got really bad, that's kind of when I took notice. Then eventually I started eliminating suspecting bad foods. And going for diet to diet, until I even landed at carnivore. I recently stopped carnivore and starting adding leafy greens back. After I realized I had possibly diverticulitis as well.
I had to come to the realization, that dropping so many foods didn't help me eliminate candida. So I'm in the phase right now, where ever few days I'm resting a certain food. Because I started developing nutrient deficiencies where even my teeth started wearing down. So I figured I have to just find a balance with some of these carbs and also work on making sure in getting rid of waste in the body.
Because it's got to a point, where not only was I constipated daily. But I wasn't even really ever sweating or getting rid of these toxins. Also working on my stress and anxiety as well. Because I still get that gut pain when I'm stressed. And that's one of the reasons for my overall gut problems.
Kombucha, best impact on me. Non dairy,vegan 80%juices, fasting lemon Cayenne, ginger lemon tea liter.
homemade Kombucha? or from store. I'm starting to see skin problems now. 😩 besides the bloating and sinus or "allergies " 🤧
@@Sol-lf2fv I also had these issues… please look for a Biological Dentist in your area!

@VanessaMoraes-zp2yv have u tried Black seed Oil?
I was waiting for this video for a while as I’m suffering from Candida thanks a million ❤
The quickest way to rid your body of Candida is by drinking kefir whey everyday with a vitamin D tablet. Within one week you are clear. I know from personal experience and have kept healthy ever since. My family (including children) and friends are on the daily regime of whey. It stops uti’s , greatly benefits kidney health and kicks Candida into touch. Look up GcMAF for all the other benefits no one tells you about. Hippocrates and Galen advocated ‘the whey cure’.
Extremely informative, helpful information and presented in a way thats easy to understand. Your calm manner is soothing too.
Thank you! I appreciate that :)
Appreciate your wisdom, I have been dealing with Candida for a long time, it's time to get well again! Thank You - Lars Fraser, Vancouver Island, Canada
The herbals I take based on my research are Peppermint, high quality Turmeric (never together!), Black Walnut Wormwood Clove tincture, Pumpkin seed oil, Probiotics (obv. not an herbal) and Chlorophyll (liquid gel caps only).
I'm going to be researching the elemental diet. Thank you!
its not enough . you need to fix your adrenals and pituitary , stomach acid , constipation and biofilm by detox it out and breaking it down if its oral use probiotics oral to get rid of it , and you need to use binders for toxins and a good gi broom , and starve it while maintain bowel movements 3 per day

Thank you so much, many of us have irritable bowels and are at a loss for answers. You gave some good incites for which I am very grateful. I was losing my meals a half hour after eating them, then I became dehydrated. Went to the hospital, they could find nothing. I was given fluids which cured the dehydration . Sent home! Many Doctors are not aware of , nor know how to treat Candida, leaky gut etc.
I am glad I started listening to this info on candida. I’ve watched this and several vids on this subject. I started destroying my massive overgrowth and I feel so much better overall. The fungus nail I had is clearing up. It already is so much better. I am shocked. I’ve tried everything to get rid of fungus nail. Apparently it was candida the whole time. Not 100% gone but I only started diet and supplements 2.5 weeks ago. Nail is 90% clear. Shocking.
Would love to know what you are taking?
Yeah, common convention is topical treatments, but fungus grows from the inside out...
So I'm doing my own protocol for SIBO/candida. Not sure HOW long to do it though as what I'm doing contains pretty potent oils. And that's garlic oil pills/capsules, star anise oil, And oil of oregano. All have candida killing properties so I'm hoping all 3 together will do wonders and not work against each other possibly/or clash. Garlic and oregano oil will be earlier in the day around breakfest and star anise oil with water before bed. Starting tmw.
I'd add to this: cloves, turmeric, and definitely Oregano.....and another forgotten one: Pau D'Arco :) worked for me!

I had some IBS and starting taking a teaspoon of olive oil a day for about 30 days, off and on and I dont even have to do that any more, no more painful bowel movements! There are herbs and foods like Kombucha, soukrout, kimchee, miso soup, herbs like peppermint, rosemary, sage, basil, fennel, astralagus, garlic and ginger that are antiviral and antifungal. Sometimes I just take garlic and ginger (small pieces) by mouth, and alternate the the garlic with tumeric applied topically then washed off my knees (due to the yellowing stain), helps with any knee arthritis. Just consult your Doctor because some of these are blood thinners and may interact. I do love blueberries for my immune system!
Is IBS associated to esophageal candidiasis
Garlic really good
If it is any where in the body, it is everywhere!
you are so right!
This informative video was very interesting and not to feel guilty if there’s times when I may need to eat rice or potatoes as making candida worse very encouraging
The best for indigestion is Slippery elm. Stops people getting stuck in the cycle of antacids
I’ve had success with a carnivore diet for my chronic candida. Meat also digests early in the GI tract, so perhaps that helps? I was 80% healed and then removing liquid dairy got me to 100%. I recently started eating a lot of cheese and it came back!
Came back ?😮
Stop multiple posting
@@kkpaine yes, it came back. If I eat anything with any type of sugar in it, especially liquid dairy, it comes back. I have an immune deficiency & my body doesn’t keep it in check.
Who are you taking to?
Carnivore can definitely be helpful. Keep experimenting with your reintroduction. Glad to hear you've made progress :-)
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video . Iv been to lots of doctors over skin issues that are geting worse candida is what was diagnosed but what they have tried doesnt seem to work for me
It’s interesting that you brought up tooth brushing. I’ve noticed that my candida rash on my chest is drastically better since I began tongue scraping with my tooth brushing routine. Total game changer. This just confirmed my thoughts.
I'm so glad you shared that! It's one thing to see it in the research but to get confirmation that it translates to a real world application and experience is awesome. I hope to get an oral health expert on in the future to discuss this link in more detail :)
check oralbiotic from now foods problem solved but fixing the intestinal candida is more complicated
Use coconut oil brusing teeth. A oral rinse machine. Hydrogen peroxide. Then floss. Chew on xyiltol. My gums are healing. Lots of candida in blood is from gums. Plaque. The gums het healthy with oils. Coconut oil works. Sesame oil. For inflammation clove oil. Turmeric in coconut oil brush swish w water after few weeks then do with Sal water in water tooth machine
Tongue scraping is common in Indian community and Ayruveda.
A very sane approach.Thanks! I like your advice to not get stressed and scared of food. I can't tell you how many time I have been scared of food! Also I agree...listen to your body...it knows what you specifically need.
I'm not scared of food. I'm scared of the end of the week when I release more waste than I even eat in normal bowel movements then get nauseous bloated with major head fog. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm sick every week!
I have been suffering with these symptoms for years, I am so grateful you are posting these videos. Could you tell us what probiotic you would recommend. I have tried many. I just don't know which are the most reliable. Thank-you, you give me hope.

I've had a tongue problem for several months. I've been thinking it was candiasis all along. Tried several things. Rt now in CandAid. Worried it's lasted a long time. White to black to white tongue. I need help affording these excellent formulas. Thank you so much for confirming that herbals are better. CandAid has garlic, among others.
I used to have tongue issues until I dropped sugar and now it’s completely normal 😊
I take an inhaler for my lungs that has steroids. I found I was getting a white tongue and my throat was feeling weird. In researching I came across info that says you must rinse/gargle several times after using an inhaler to prevent thrush.
Denture wearers are always more prone to candidia overgrowth. The dentist can help if you are not able to control the thrush.
@maggiebodine206- From what l found, the body needs cleansing. You need to reach out to a naturopath. A black tongue indicates severe cleansing is needed. 🙏🏼
Wow! Best video on Candida, thank you so much Doctor! You're a rare gem 😊
I think going Carnivore and adding some antimicrobial plants like oregano/garlic can help, as well as using things to add more acid with Apple Cider Vineger, Coconut Oil and making sure to get enough electrolytes.
I had IBS with explosive diarrhea and getting everyday and irritated colon. I had stool tests. Since I have diabetes 2 and hypertension. Asked God if could come from some thing I was taking the thought came to me BP medication. So I decided to stop it for a time to see. That was 12/23/2023 as of today 2/29/24 I have only had twice and not explosive and colon not sore. BP135-70-68 . I am 81 ; eat Keto. Med. Lisinopril-HCTZ 10/12.5MG Tablets. Maybe this could help someone else. It ended that day. Keto for 5 years.
Look into wormwood and black walnut
I like taking SLIPPERY ELM capsules for the colon. It is very healing and soothing for it.

Thank you so much for the video! Very helpful and encouraging. Grateful for all the work you and your team have put into it
I think a major culprit here is most people that were raised on conventional foods. Especially meat and dairy that are not organic. We are constantly ingesting some level of antibiotic from this. Also the water supply. Our water has god knows how many traces of chemicals not to mentions chlorine and chloramines. It is really no wonder we have such gut imbalances. Compound this with other lifestyle factors and you have major overgrowths.
major culprit is daily use of coffee for decages leading to low adrenal and pituitary fuction and weakness and not just fatique
Major culprit is Sugar in everything!!! Even foods that don't require it, they put it in Have to be very careful and read ingredients Now they're putting GMOs in everything!😡
I really appreciate how genuine and honest you are… Thank you for this informative video
In dealing with candida and irs ruling my life😢its everywhere the issue is all the info is so conflicting but ill keep fighting
My doctor had me switch my alkaline vegan lifestyle to keto eating. I did the candida medicine already. I'm also using microdefense supplement from the health store. I also drink a non gmo organic detox tea everyday.
I remember seeing Doreen at a spiritual conference in Sydney about 20 or so years ago. She was almost ethereal. She was so friendly and light filled.
20:30 I would never ever recommend artificial sweeteners! Stevia thou does not count as "artificial". Other than that: very good information❣
Dr you are freaking awesome!!! I have been subscribed to your channel for a while now. This is the BEST video on healing your body from Candida overgrowth I’ve ever seen! ❤️
I appreciate that you made it a point to specify you don’t need a low carb diet to re-balance the gut microbiome. I have struggled with Candida overgrowth for probably close to two decades! I have been working with a biological dentist for the past 6 months because my imbalance all stemmed from my oral health. And I’m not talking about brushing and flossing. If you were to talk to my old dentist he would say my oral health was perfect. I can’t say exactly what because this comment will just get taken down… 😒
I can say since having an oral procedure most of my symptoms have significantly improved. However, I know that the lingering effects are Candida. I make my own purple fermented sauerkraut and raw milk Kefir. I am also taking a soil based probiotic at the moment which I am almost out of and then I am starting the Saccharomyces Boulardii probiotic, 2 capsules a day. I am hoping with the fermented and cultured foods plus the added probiotic supplement I can really dig into this!
I also do not eat processed foods. Whole and organic. I had been eating raw local honey in my raw milk yogurt which I will be cutting out I guess. I was also having maple syrup and raw cream in my coffee. I had cut coffee out for many months and just started drinking it again for the last couple weeks. I’ll be cutting that back out completely also. I want to make sure some raw dairy is ok because I’ve also seen where some say to cut out dairy completely too… 😑
Is the raw milk kefir ok to still drink? I blend strawberry, raspberry and blueberries in it, that’s it. I also have Oregano oil that I have used a couple times in the past because I saw Dr. Axe talk about it. I used it 3X a day for 14 days. 3 drops mixed in a tsp of coconut oil, morning noon and night. This may be TMI but I noticed what’s called, rope worms come out in my stool. I know they aren’t actually worms but wow! I can only attribute that to the use of the Oregano oil.
I have also tried the 1 raw garlic clove a day. Chopped it up and let it sit for 10 min to let the alliinase release and then also took with coconut oil. I had to drink about a cup of water as soon as swallowing as it felt like it burned. The water made it to where it didn’t do that.
With all of this said, I wasn’t really doing everything in combination and/or for a long enough period of time. I also make my own sourdough bread so that’s a no go. I will be keeping that out of my diet as well.
How long would you say to do this regimen before trying to add different foods back in? 3-6 months? A year? I also make my own meat stock and drink that to help heal my gut. I couldn’t do bone broth before as it was too high in histamine and I would have reactions. My food intolerances are a lot better now tho since this oral procedure. A couple years ago I had tried the GAPS diet to heal my gut but that was before I knew about the oral connection, and it was SO low carb that I lost so much weight,(which I couldn’t afford to lose) that I felt like I was dying on that diet! 😒😣
I do however continue with the meat stock as it makes me feel really good.
Sorry so long. I just wanted to share my story which I’m just scratching the surface. I’ve been struggling with debilitating symptoms since I got C in April 2021, 3 friggin years! Like I said, I am much better now but still need to tackle the Candida issue.
Thank you so very much for all your valid information and I will sleep better at night knowing I don’t have to starve myself to re-balance my gut and Candida!! I sleep SO much better having some carbs!
God bless you!! ❤🙌🏻
Thank you for breaking this down. Have you heard of Candidase supplements? If so, what do you think of it? (It's an enzyme blend of cellulase and protease. They claim cellulase breaks down yeast cell wall while protease digests the interior proteins).
Awesome in-depth video.
Awesome video! Thank you for being so transparent with the research!
Because of sugar and carbs! And drinking a lot of water helps to reduce Candida!
The inconsistencies in testing that you mention is true with many functional tests. You would not use this as a stand alone Diagnostic tool but to put the big picture together with Symptomology and other lab testing.
Very very helpful analysis for someone who has suffered a lot. May God bless you Doctor!
Thank you :)
Add plain kefir with or without berries. It really makes a huge difference! It's best to purchase kefir grains and use raw milk or milk that isn't ultra-pasteurized to make your own. It's good with ginger. Kefir can be used to treat vaginal yeast infections as a douche or by soaking a tampon as well.
Except if your diabetic😂 sugar free keifer is soo gross even with honey , miss it😂😂😂
I wish I’d NEVER EVER listened to my doctors about acne. All they did was put me on antibiotics and had NO conversation about taking prebiotics/probiotics. Over time I learned about the gut biome and healing everything without standard doctors and dermatologists. Definitely working through candida and bacterial overgrowth due to a lack of healthy biome critters because of the antibiotics. Good luck everyone!
Same 😒
Me too, antibiotics ruined me.
A lot of us are allergic or have skin problems from dairy
Same, antibiotics is the reason more people are sick in this world than healthy. And big pharma knows!
Ive had chronic sinus issues for years. I keep reading it could be candida related. :( This was a very informative video and best one I have seen in a long time.

Ive had issues with candida every since i had treatment for breast cancer years ago. I simply cant get rid of it. Ive fasted, added prebiotics, herbs, yogurt , candida diet and cleanse and taken pills for yeast infections from the doctor. At one point i had a 3 month long yeast infection after chemo and the doctor said i would just have to deal with chronic yeast and there was nothing they could do. I had to get rid of the infection on my own and did all kinds of things people would consider weird. Even now my tongue is white and i get infections easily. I just want to be well

What about drinking saltwater ? Does it help? And eating ginger?
Thanks a million for this well broken down easy to understand video...appreciate it....
My pleasure!
This was so helpful. Thank you so much. I keep having recurring yeast infections on my skin (beneath breasts, etc) and I just realized it flares when I go off my low carb diet. I struggle with staying on it but I never saw the connection before this past week.
I'm wondering though, on the avoid list of foods, it said starchy veggies and included potatoes. But then under encouraged foods, potatoes were there. What am I missing? I would love to be able to eat some healthy starches again.
What is the elemental diet? That sounds like a nice reboot. I just got a bottle of pro and prebiotics. I'm ready to lick this thing. I bet I'll feel better than I've felt in years once I'm back in a healthy balance. Thanks again.
What exam can a doctor do to find out why a child 7 years old us constipated. They have her on miralax for two years. Why are doctors acting like they do not know what we are talking about. Can l go directly to the laboratory and find out myself by asking for some specific test. That is so sad not being able to know if there is Candida. Incredible wash her mouth more than 3 times a day. This is incredible. Great explanation.😊
I know how you feel. 😢. I believe it’s because The American Medical Association and medical schools are sponsored by drug companies. Most doctors simply don’t know any better, and let’s face it, some can be too arrogant to think for themselves.
I had the same problem constipated since I was born. I was born in the 60s, in the Midwest lots of meat potatoes corn and peas. That didn’t help. What I have found works for me the best is lots of veggies especially later in the day, broccoli Is the best. If your child doesn’t like broccoli you can mix it with some carrots and cauliflower and purée it. I had all the candida symptoms as a kid and I was a candy addict. For me Giving up gluten, dairy, Sugar and especially chocolate even no sugar dark chocolate is very helpful. Chocolate is my enemy unfortunately. Magnesium for me is more effective than MiraLAX. Magnesium oxide is not absorbed well but helps a lot with constipation. Very effective. Good luck, No kid should have to suffer with constipation.
Glad this was helpful
@lindapelle8738 my dr told me to take magnesium citrate for my constipation, I was taking carbonate, which is in the product Calm. Have you tried citrate? Did you find oxide to work better? It's very confusing. I also take a whole cap of miralax every day....I also eat tons of veg.
@@straightedgeveganbel2453Hi, mag citrate never helped me, I could take many teaspoons of it whether it is calm or plain citrate, no benefit. I find magnesium oxide to be much more effective. I also take a very gentle herbal combination that causes no side effects which helps with my peristalsis, developed by a holistic physician. I stopped taking it years ago but then I developed sibo and had to go back on it. I also take H2go occasionally, also extremely effective. It’s a form of magnesium that is not absorbed but it’s different than most magnesium’s. And of course I stay very hydrated. Finding the foods that make your constipation worse is helpful. In my case beef is a biggie, Gluten, dairy and chocolate. I don’t eat grains because I have hypoglycemia and they just make me tired. I eat a lot of eggs seafood veggies poultry.
If you’re going to take magnesium oxide its good to also take an absorbable magnesium as well it so you know you’re getting enough magnesium.
Hope that helps.
Something seems weird with that study, no dairy, but yogurt is on the side "to eat". I know there are coconut milk yogurts. I would say the pseudograins would be better than them just listing "Whole Grains" would love to know who financed that study. Whole grains sprayed heavily with pesticides has to have an impact on our biome bugs too I would think? Just removing Sugar, Dairy and foods from a box (gf or not) has me about 15 pounds lighter. And this morning I woke up with no nasty cavity forming film on my teeth. Potatos and (perhaps occasional sweet potato too) I would want those grown without pesticides.
And i am gluten-free so the wheat whole bread is out... It can be hars to digest for women..lots of pesticides in big grain crops
The diet is huge. I was doing well then lost my job, so a lot of stress. I then started ravaging on things like Cheddar cheese and symptoms developed again.
If it looks like a duck, cracks like a duck, it's a duck.... I had blood tests done by my integrative medicine doctor. She put me on various things to help the candida overgrowth. I have to disagree with a lot of what you're saying doctor. It's been life-changing for me. The first initial treatment of the pills that I was given didn't do a good enough job, but it was still life-changing in the sense that I could finally start eating things that usually gave me gout-like symptoms. Sleeping better, etc. A good regimen of a tablespoon of diatomaceous earth food grade, along with zeolite to take out toxins, four drops of oil of oregano everyday. Two capsules of clothes, two capsules of caprylic acid, and I have knocked this thing out of the park! Best results so far.
Brushing after every meal…. I will try that thank you
Great info! I’m so glad I found your channel. Weird question, where did you get your T-shirt? 😂 I have been searching for my husband and cannot find good t shirts.
Dr. Michael. This was very informative. Thanks so much for all the information on this subject and the importance of a good diet for sleep and wellness. This channel is awesome!! 🤗
Thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it. Glad you're enjoying the channel. :)
Never had visible symptoms but out of wack/ then all of a sudden skin is covered with itchy pimples got stung by a bee then my whole body got sick my face and head ears nose covered in folliculitus it finally subsided after 4 months it still on head and back swooshing in my ears…. It was all thrush and candida. Used Ketocanozal 2% on skin it really was a game changer also consumed oregano oil, garlic, probiotics switched to stevia, coconut oil mixed with cinnamon, organic cranberry no sugar added juice w/ water. Increased my activity wish me luck I’m 65 & just retired. Basil tea rosemary tea helped because I miss coffee so much / I will also take fluconazol because seems I ‘ve got it bad.
I drink coffee using unsweetened almond milk and sweeten it with Stevia or Xylotil. I'm 67 and my female parts are so itchy. Also I suffer from Diabetes 2.
Fantastic information on gut health. Thank you very much 🙏
So glad you think so. Thank you!
Thank you so much - exactly the info I needed- new Sub from Australia 🇦🇺 😊
Well I'm taking wormwood and black walnut in pill formation daily. That should help with candida
Not if you don't give up sugar or sweets. Bread is a no no too.
Hey Doc, why are artificial sugars and sweeteners encouraged? Glucose and sugar feed candida and disease.
A low carb diet or carnivore diet would be perfect for this.
1st time viewing
ur channel i like the
info/study results combo see ya ‼️
Excellent explanation 👍
Very good and informative video!
most Doctors say .oh buy the cream at the store. they just don;t seem to know what they are doing
One more great video!
My man!
Yeee, I am your fan. From Siberia. And bought yesterday your book. In two versions - on Kindle and on Audible. Don't read it yet. But will. So, many thanks!
For me, I think my candida was heavy metals & toxins due to closed detox pathways. Candida can form as a protective mechanism when we have too many heavy metals. It's there for a purpose. I didn't know this & I was desperate to overcome the candida and went strict keto almost carnivore. 0 sugar, 0 carbs, 0 fruits. (also no processed food) only for my issues to get worse. As soon as I started eating SUGAR, fruits, fiber and vegetables the issue went away....everything online says "cut out sugar!!!" bad advise...My advise is make sure you're detoxing & your liver is working well. Fiber helps detox.
I have had gut issues for many years . Mostly bloating and slow motility. Currently I am having more pain in the gallbladder area and slightly below . I’m not over weight yet diabetes runs in my family. I have not checked my sugar in many years . I’m 61 yrs old and try to eat pretty clean . Meat included. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
@@stevem9766 Make sure your TSH is under 2. Thyroid helps us detox. Without enough thyroid hormone the liver can't function properly and you can't detox. Not enough thyroid can also cause gallbladder problems. Be open to medication. If standard levothyroxine doesn't work add in T3 cynomel. Also look into Ray Peat. Don't follow him dogmatically, he's not 100% correct but he has a lot of great research and advise on thyroid support.
good job , in my practice , bloating is either constipation or sifo offen both since pituitary or adrenals are weak or they got mycoplasma and auto immune that cause endocrine problems
Regarding RX antifungals, I think you'll find this study interesting. A paper titled "Immunological Consequences of Intestinal Fungal Dysbiosis" (PMID 27237365) may shed some light on the dark side of RX antifungals. Basically, there appears to be collateral damage and a decrease in good/beneficial fungi (yes, that's a thing!)- much like RX antibiotics decrease populations of good bacteria.
Great video as always, doc! :)
I love that you passed along a study. Thank you. I'll review!
what about RX antifungals damaging the good bacterias? or are they only effective against fungus ..?!
Thank you for that all the info! Very useful when dealing with systemic candidas and trying to get rid of it!
Than you for this information💙
Is SEBBOROIC DERMATITIS caused by candida/fungus or is it the same?
I believe it is about the same. When I drink more and eat more carbs my SB flares up but it’s hard to go carnivore when you’re vegetarian 😅
Yes
Do you recommend taking fluconazole or itraconazole?
Aren't these antibiotics.
Thank you for amazing information.
My grandmother has horrendous overgrowth but my idiotic family wont listen to me😞
I got candida on my tongue while on 😢ELEMENTAL DIET from Dr Ruscio
@user-ss9fl9pt7u I have been looking for info in the Internet . I’m afraid this will spread into the intestines , since I haven’t stop the Elemental Diet. It’s too expensive to leave it there. I’m on my 9 Day. Unfortunately , here in this channel, there is very little focus on commenting on the users negative and positive experiences in this regard
Histamin and gut health are related right? You are saying you can fight fungus with fungus .. so why do some say not to eat any fermented food like kimchi, ACV when you are delaying with Histamin intolerance?
Thank you for sharing this information. Do you have a timeline for how long a person should spend on each of these steps to get the best results?
roughly 1-2 months
@@DrRuscioDC Ok, thank you!
Which supplements are recommended for candida? Please let me know Thank You 😊
