Key Supplements
- ROTATE antifungals every 4 days (prevents resistance—Candida adapts quickly): Caprylic Acid (coconut-derived) 1000mg 3x/day, Oregano Oil 500mg 3x/day, Pau d'Arco 1000mg 3x/day, Garlic Extract (allicin) 500mg 3x/day, Berberine 500mg 3x/day, Undecylenic Acid (castor bean-derived) 250mg 3x/day, Grapefruit Seed Extract 500mg 2x/day, Olive Leaf Extract 500mg 3x/day, Biofilm disruptors (Candida forms biofilms—protective layer): NAC 1200mg 2x/day, Serrapeptase (on empty stomach), BINDERS (CRITICAL—take AWAY from antifungals, 2+ hours apart—prevent die-off symptoms): Activated Charcoal 1-2g 2-3x/day, Bentonite Clay 1 tsp 2x/day, Zeolite, Chlorella, Molybdenum 300-900mcg/day (helps metabolize Candida toxins—reduces die-off symptoms), Probiotics (specific anti-Candida strains, start LOW—die-off): Saccharomyces boulardii 5-10B CFU (beneficial yeast, crowds out Candida), Soil-based probiotics after initial kill phase, High-dose multi-strain after clearance 50-100B CFU, Digestive Enzymes with Cellulase and Hemicellulase (break down Candida cell wall), Support: Vitamin C 2-4g/day (immune, detox), Zinc 30-50mg (immune), Selenium 200mcg (immune), Vitamin D3 5000 IU, Omega-3 2-4g/day (anti-inflammatory), L-Glutamine 10-20g/day (heal gut lining—after initial kill phase), Curcumin 1g 2x/day (anti-inflammatory), Milk Thistle 300mg 3x/day (liver support—detox), Prescription antifungals if severe (Nystatin—GI only, doesn't absorb, or Fluconazole—systemic, stronger, liver monitoring needed—work with doctor)
Key Lab Markers
- Comprehensive stool test (Candida species, overgrowth markers, other fungi), GI-MAP or equivalent, Organic Acids Test (MOST SENSITIVE—Candida metabolites: D-Arabinitol, Tartaric acid—elevated indicates Candida overgrowth even if stool test negative), Candida antibodies (IgG, IgA, IgM—indicates systemic exposure/immune response), Mycotoxin urine test (if concurrent mold exposure suspected), Blood tests: Comprehensive metabolic panel, Fasting glucose and insulin (high blood sugar feeds Candida), HbA1c (diabetes screening), CBC (white blood cells, eosinophils), Food sensitivity panel (Candida causes leaky gut—food sensitivities develop), Vitamin D, Zinc, Selenium, B vitamins, Ferritin (iron—deficiency common with Candida)
